Very cool footage.. thanks for sharing the link

[Shorezy]

Yeah dude nice find.

Pros - New beat downs were sick: Ass end of the sniper rifle to the head and the big punches to the face. Looks like a fun map too.

Cons - 'nough chainsawing and no new weapons.

All and all pretty sweet! Thanks again.

:cool:not a problem dudes, anyways i dont know about the new wepons but did u catch him sticking nades on the wall that was awesome and the fact that the smoke grenade finaly does something besides suck is great too, i dont know i like the improvments what i wanna see is, the ability to allow friends to find either my room faster or join my matches that i host, my theory is if halo can do it so can gears.

All of that looks and sounds cool but I want to know if the host advantage still exists.

sorry dude i read that still exist in this months EGM.

Well that dampens things for me. I hate that when someone has the shottie and the host they are damn near invincible.

i know but they dimmed that out a bit,i went bak to hosting one day to see if they fixed it and i gotta tell you the host is weaker now.

[Shorezy]

That is good to hear but any advatage is weak. Nonetheless any improvement is awesome. They were pretty much unstoppable.

I like the look of the sniper scope too. Look like it's a tad easier to predict the leads..

November is TOO far away!

[WillyV2]

Wow, I'm impressed. That looks really good. I'm even more pumped for this game now.

[BROOKLYNSBATMAN]

I think the best thing added to show creativity on the xbox and gears 2 is the crawl to safety and the fact that if i am downed with a grenade i can take both us out hahahaha thats awesome. :cool:

One of the many things that makes this game SO overrated online.

[ChessPieceFace]

It looks like to me they are really trying to stick to the shoot and cover, as opposed to the shotgun wars which got boring. The fact that you slow down when being shot at is a huge improvement, no more rush in with the shotty.

If they can somehow make people play the game the way that I feel the developers intended us to play it, this game could be GREAT online. But here's how a round in Gears usually went:

At the start of the round, either both teams run for the same weapon on the map and meet in some shotgun/chainsaw war while 12 yr. olds are yelling at each other about how "uber-fantasitcal-pwnage-blah-blah-blah they are" or

The two teams run for seperate weapons and three people from each team meet in the middle and engage in a shotgun/chainsaw war while 12 yr. olds are yelling at each other about how "uber-fantastical-pwnage-blah-blah-blah they are" while the two remaning players (the ones who get the weapons) use those weapons accordingly.

All this after you spend 36 minutes in the pre-game lobby as players jockey back and forth between teams to try to get on the host's team as that is the team with a distinct advantage. And usually the teams end up stacked as nobody cares about actually playing a fun, competitive game. Most are just in there to get their "Seriously....." achievement so they can tell their other 12 yr. old buddies that, "I totally got the Seriously achievement last night, dude! And this only after playing this game (and only this game) for the last 9 months. I can hardly wait till Halo 3 comes out!!"

True Story. :bang:

[azinkidrules]

lookin at the new footage and gameplay its gonna sick...
sicker than GOW.. i do believe this will be a solid hit for 5 months... no interuptions!

[Dr_J]

Very nice.

Can't wait until November.

One thing that bothers me is that when you chainsaw someone and the blood goes all over the screen, it just disappears. Why not have it drip off the screen to make it look more realistic?

Yeah.....it's the little things.
