I like that Savage Kantus looks so radically different from all the other locusts, but I don't know if I'll ever roll with that character. The skin Team Pulse, and Team Metal though, those will be mine.

I'll repeat myself again, I NEED that Xbox green skin. Just any skin that's green really, I see no other one.

Make a buffet of avatars, then charge him 240 GAF points for static and 360 GAF points for animated, Epic Edition for the whole set.

GAF points? He should pay me for making the beta thread and this one. Shit :p

Show me some love. Don't make me come up to NYC tomorrow. I seriously might...

I'll probably settle for those if I can't get the green one. :/

The forum decided to host all avatars internally, so all avatars were removed. Just upload it again from user CP.

Evilore made it so avatars are hosted internally, not externally. Just upload it again and you're good. No animated gifs. Static images only. Nothing more than 150kb or more than 100x120 pixels :)

it's still on your site it's just too big for the forum, i'm sure you can resize it in This thread [Forum Avatar Request Thread]

Or someone here might be able to do it!

I woke up today with a cold so tomorrow night at gamestop I'll be spreading the germs to dozens of gamers who will then have all the excuse they need to use up some sick days.

You're welcome.

So does everybody have their 4 Player co-op midnight squads yet? PXG, if you've got space available let me know.

People are saying it's pretty easy, even on hardcore with 3-4 players. I think my first run through is just going to be me and my brother on splitscreen.

That's how me and my brother did waaaay back on Christmas 2006, and that's how we're gonna finish it this year.

Oh ok, I can dig it.

I think there is an achievement for beating the game in 4 Player co-op though, so I'm looking for a crew to roll with.

WZ and Execution are great but in this ADD world relying on main gametypes where you die and are out for 2-3 minutes can be a risk. Hell, max respawn time in Gears is like 15 seconds and even then I still peek at twitter. :eek:

Counterstrike somehow pulls it off, however. ::shrug::
Click to expand...

I dig TDM in other games, but with everything Gears, it just felt much more suited to the 1 life round mechanic. That's where I'll be spending my time.

And CliffyB, this campaign is non-stop. This one definitely goes to 11.

General rule of thumb is if you stay in the GAF bubble you will be fine, but if you do need to venture outside of gaf for the love of all that is sacred stay away from youtube and official forums. its a bad idea.

Yeah, because if you spoil on purpose your ass gets permabanned and getting an account here is not an instant thing.

I was roll solo for campaign. But you know you're ALWAYS welcome to join me for MP.

Don't try to be funny and have your girl play in your place.

To the people that have played already assuming you have a lot of unlocks:

How do the unlock messages come up on the screen when you first start up? One or two at a time or are we blessed with a screen full of unlocks? That'd be pretty sweet.

Three at a time. They roll in, then get replaced by more, then roll more in. It takes a while. Unfortunately the end-of-match ones take up the same space and are covered by the achievement popup.

if it's like that in the new Counterstrike game, it'll be a point of criticism for reviewers, for sure. If not, it'll be sugar coated in some way to ease people into the idea.

i like having one life, but i'll be practicing in TDM first because my KD ratio is like .1/1 in shooters.

Dom has a beard in this game. OH SHIT SPOILER.

Christ...If you don't want anything spoiled, just avoid any Gears 3 topics. I'm not going to spoiler tag every little thing, especially stuff that was officially announced by Epic.

I normally follow that rule, but I thought I was safe on the fucking Xbox dashboard.

Btw I just pre-ordered the game today in some measly old mall. The dude said the store had over 300 pre-orders :| Game is gonna be huge.
