Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever.Domino Theory said:Lag fixes and better host selection are being worked on for a seperate update after TU4.
"It's been sort of an ongoing struggle for us with the shotgun in that we're trying to create a tactical, cover-based shooter game but people like running around with the shotgun and gibbing people. You can't complain, it certainly is fun, and that's one of the cases where you really have to watch the vocal minority, the hardcore, that's telling you one thing, and the silent majority, the new players, who are potentially telling you another thing which is they don't want the shotgun to be faster because they can't keep up with the hardcore. It's that kind of balance."

Sweet.UPDATE - TU4 has passed certification and will be deployed at 2 AM PST. Please remember it can take a fair amount of time for it to propagate around the world so please be patient. See you in Horde!
Adds the ability to restart Public Horde from the current failed wave instead of having to start over from wave 1.
Hate to rain on your parade but the XP you'll get from Horde is basically pointless. Probably gonna take you 10000 times longer to level up there.Hootie said:Whoa I just read that part and I guess Wave 10 will be all tickers this weekend. That should be interesting...:lol
EDIT: OH SHIIIIIII title update 4 is coming out TOMORROW!??! Holy shit I thought it was coming out the same day as Dark Corners. Horde EXP here I motherfucking come!!!!!!!!

Mamesj said:Outside of being fun to kill, what's so great about tickers? I've never played much horde (beat the game on Hardcore then sold it at launch, just rebought it today.)

Seriously. I remember a while back a programmer at Epic posted on the forums. He replied to a guy pondering about something to do with the net code. The Epic guy was like "I'm the guy who writes all the netcode for gears, I did it for Gears 1 too, and it works like this, blah blah blah".Relix said:Really. Epic has a clusterfuck of a team for programmers :lol

Feindflug said:Seriously quotes like this:
are definitely showing the direction and some choices about Gears 2's mp like lowering the speed, nerfed the shotgun, adding stopping power, grenade planting and weapons like the mortar & flamethrower...it's pretty clear that they wanted to make the game noob-friendly and fuck all those who spend hrs and hrs mastering the first game...and I was wondering why they changed the gameplay so much when the first game was amost perfect in that regard.
Yesterday I popped in after almost a year Gears 1 and the game felt like back then - amazing...Gears 2 feels like a downgrade in almost all areas. The sad thing is that I'm pretty sure Gears 3 will be noob-friendly crap again with lots of glitches and lots of bullet lag...embarassing and sad indeed.

Massive meltdowns going down again at the EPIC forums, Epic staff are going through there weekly forum diplomatic silencing and removing all positive and negative feedback threads. 4 Title Updates and still all this mess... thank fuck i stop playing this in january
its amazing how this game went from a very successful multiplayer experience to a game that just cant get it right like the Original (Gameplay & Matchmaking) Gears 1 capitalized and didn't have the tag of having "potential" like (GOW2) because it actually fulfilled its near full potential
Gears 2 is like a train wreck that you just cant turn away from
Cliffy B said:So, a lot of players playing Gears 1 had a concern about host advantage. since Gears is a Client/Server architecture, not a Peer-to-Peer architecture. Our solution to this is optimize, optimize, optimize. Basically get players to the point where host has very little advantage to none at all, so players cant even tell who the host is when playing online.
Gunstar77 said:I just finished another 5 matches during 11pm to 12am EST and would have to say this is by far the best patch for GOW2 so far. I only had one match have a patch of lag in the middle of one match and that was it. As far as host powers go, there is no longer one person with 15 to 20 kills and rest in single digits, it is a nice even spread for the whole team. Please understand that I am not saying that GOW2 is perfect but for me at least is worth playing everynight again.
