Im level 35 already lol

The sawn off shotgun is pissing me off to no end, just like I thought it would.

I'm level 33, and yes that shotgun is fucking killing the fun.

 

[Johnlenham]

I don't see why it wouldn't let you.

Well its more it would but I imagine it would be so laggy it wouldnt be worth it but if its a matter of connecting then im equal to the guy with 100mg connection due to the servers then its all good.

 

[JonCha]

Hot damn I may just have to pick this up!

 

[HawksWinStanley]

I've only been watching streams and YT vids but am I the only one who isn't seeing this huge ass light that's supposed to be on the sawed off now?

Is it more noticeable when you're actually playing the game? Because from what I'm seeing in these vids/streams I still can't tell what somebody is holding til they're already scattered everywhere.

It contains access to the first 4 DLCs. You save 33% by buying the season pass.
Also you get a liquid metal skin for your weapons.

 

[Lima]

The liquid metal skin looks like ass. Damn it sucks that hard.

Anyway my body is ready.

Was having problems last night with matchmaking.

It would say we found 10 players but when it came to connect it would take ages and we would usually be playing 3v3 or 3v5 etc with bots .

Although playing with bots made it a bit of a challenge Getting bored of skunking 99% of everyone in mm.

Did you at least buy the season pass first?

The skins are pretty expensive, but I'm guessing microsoft thinks gears dudes are gonna get bored and eventually buy a bunch of them. They will.

 

[abracadaver]

Did you at least buy the season pass first?

Yes

 

[Ningo]

This has gotten expensive, just paid for 12 months live $50, season pass $33, LE console $548. Almost how much my launch 20gig cost me.

 

[Brakara]

The season pass description has me worried:

The Gears 3 Season Pass is your ticket to brand new Campaign, Horde, Beast, and multiplayer content, including new playable characters. The Season Pass serves as your pre-order (at a 33% discount!) of four downloadable content packages that you will receive every quarter, starting in November.

So will the first DLC pack (of the four) be the characters pack? Well, fuck that.

[Seth Balmore]

I'm not buying the Season Pass until they detail what the first 4 DLCs are going to be and when they'll be released. Chances are I'll be interested in them but I just can't blindly give my money away like that, I want to know what I'm paying for in advance.

Season Pass get!

My brothers! Tonight's the night! We're almost home!

The train's at home on the rails. Woooooooooooo!

 

[ToyMachine228]

Also, is there any word if any of the retailer exclusive character skins will ever be available as paid DLC?

this is what I'm going to do as well. it's not like the the 33% discount will be a limited time thing. it might even get its own additional discount by the time november comes around if it's not selling as much as they were expecting.

It probably will, but no

Spoiler

I've answered this question far too many times

 

[h3ro]

Anyone who preordered on Newegg have their order ship?

The potential cost has put me off buying GoW3 a bit. Living in Australia doesnt help.
If the online is bad (like in GoW2), I'll keep getting allocated to laggy US games which will really ruin multiplayer for me.
If I hear good things about multiplayer (from other Aussies), Im sure I'll buy sooner or later. If not, Ill probably play MW3 instead.
