im on skorge hardcore

[Evil Sannin]

I beat Skorge Insane lol but yeah...how's the update as far as multiplayer been? I haven't got on in a while...is it a noticable difference enough for me to get back into multiplayer action...I hated waiting to play some king of the hill or other matches

[Itsu]

I have yet to place Gears 2 on multplayer lol but anyways I sux at it anyway I think..

[Evil Sannin]

you think you suck...you should see me lol but it's all fun and games only way to get better is more experience...but I hoped on today and you can tell the patch did make the match making a lot faster as far as finding teams and opponents...starting the matches is still a bit slow but the patch is enough to get me back online...me and my bud ran a couple of matches of wingman and could have got that achievement tonight but we always cut those wins too close...they all were in reach but we just couldn't get over that hump...but oh well we'll try another day can't wait til the next patch that is suppose to fix actual game play with the chainsaw bs and other stuff but that'll be further along the way

[Hatake_Kakashi_Sensei]

ive only got like 3000 kills .______.

[Evil Sannin]

that's not too bad given i'm sure you ran through the game and played some horde and multiplayer, I know it'll take me forever now to hit that 100k mark b/c i'll mainly be hittin up territories in multiplayer

[Itsu]

I'll probably hit the 1 mil mark a year from now or maybe longer lol, but yeah when I get my 360 all fixed up I'm gonna try Gears online more often..

[fieldy3000]

i'm pissed, for some reason i can't roadie run or cover now, (just entered the underground) i'm playing no easy because i had no idea wtf i was doing so i can still go through the game without getting slaughtered but it's still annoying.

[Evil Sannin]

oh just wait til you play on Insane...you'll want to use a wish to turn you box into a actual person and strangle the hell outta it...i'll be on tonight again in multiplayer territories

[Theo Misaki]

I've beaten the horde on 50 6 times. In addition to, I have created a new exicution along with finding out how to place granades onto the ground. If you want to know the new exicution you can probably catch me anytime this week to find out, seeing it's a bit hard to explain compared to showing you. It's also a good way to earn and achivement at the very same if done so properly.

XBL GT: Juggernaut Sith

[Evil Sannin]

new execution??? hmm wonder how that would help with achievements...I only got 5 left to get and hopefully if I hit up wingman tonight it'll drop to 4...I haven't played horde in so long...after I beat it once that was it unless partying up with friends...I think I need to work more on getting that seriously 2.0 but i'm focused on multiplayer now

[fieldy3000]

ok so can someone list the achievement thing?

just watched the city sink. I gotta say i'm loving the new weapons. especially the gun. the locust ammo packs are cool too.

[Theo Misaki]

I can get all of my achivements by myself, it's just that i grow bored when I am playing by myself so I stoped. The only achivments I need are the ones for ingame campaign.

[Evil Sannin]

were you talking about the achievement thing Theo was talking about? if so he'd have to post it b/c i'm not sure what it is...I was in multiplayer last night and me and my friends were having a conversation about the shield glitch...has anyone seen this glitch...basically you get the shield as usually but the neat part about the glitch is instead of wielding the gorgon piston or pistols all together you'd wield the shotty body along with the shield...I haven't seen it yet but they have...all I gotta say is that's crazy...wouldn't be too much you can do in that situation...I know when someone does have the shield you can basically run up and chainsaw them...but you wouldn't want to do that when they got a shotty body handy...

man I just played to most ridiculous matches of wingman ever...if I weren't going for that achievement I would have gave up a long time ago...it sucks teaming up with random people man I only got in two matches before I had to come into work...but both my partners suck horribly...which made it worse for me b/c both those matches we could have won b/c the other players were horrible as well but my first partner just didn't pay attention and would always run into a team by himself instead of us coming up with some kind of strategy and I would have to back him up...so I get most of the other teams downed and in the process i'm downed as well...and instead of reviving me to get my kills from backing him up he takes my damn kills then revives me and runs off again then he'd always gets killed first and it's me against like teams of 2 or 3 granted I held my own for a good bit but hell there's only so much I can do...and the next match my partner just didn't pay attention either, we were on Day One and he's always go for the power weapons on the top balconies and of course I need to follow him to provide support and instead of checking around for enemies he just aims the weapons at the middle of the level...meanwhile I'm fending off multiple enemies at our flank...I would take out a good majority of them as I'm getting rushed...I honestly don't think the other teams realized they were by each other b/c it was like one big team vs me so of course I'd bite the dust then they get him now he's dead and that happened the entire match til I just came into work...it was pathetic...I'll be on tonight with those same friends I was on with last night...hopefully Seshen will join us b/c it was a blast...I know he came in our party and chatted with us a bit...it was funny but Sesh i'll be looking for you tonight so we can hit up that multi

[fieldy3000]

i'm up to the driving mission, whatever the fuck it's called. got to say, i fucking love this game.
the scale of it is amazing. the detail too, especially in the belly of the worm.
i'm not a big fan of mini games (shooting down the fruit for the worm) but gears pulled it off, also dug carrying explosives to the door.

there are some rendering issues sometimes but still beats playing it on the pc.

[Seshen]

The driving missions up the mountain were fun. Easy kills. Even on Hardcore. Insane though??? Nasty to say the least.

[Theo Misaki]

The achivement would be where your holding a body and it saves your life 10 times. In order to do this sweet ass exicution shoot a person to the point of a crawl. Quickly run up to them and plant a frag granad onto them and then in the very same pick them up with A. In your very habds the body should blow up. In order to do this you'll need to be quick about it. I wish I could record it to claim it, but I can't. Inaddition to, if you have fast fingers you can also do the do ther very same exicution and snapp their neck in time to side step and watch a dead standing body blow up. I've done it to my cousin hundreds of times and everytime it looks cooler and cooler.

And with playing with him I found a small glitch as well. Killed by a smoke granade and still recive no death count in the end or during but you still die in the game at any rate. Just toss a smoke at someone and have then tapp A repetedly. NOTE: it only works if they fall onto their back for some odd reason. I know this may sounds rediculaus but it's funny to die and not recive a true death. Your fallen body will bounce around on the ground before tossing itself into the air and then eventually kills you. It's even funnier to watch someone else do it. I tried it this morning on Mansion and I was lmao.

At any rate, I found a another minor glitch as well. Slapping a frag to the ground to give you more so a claymore rather than a proxy. To do this instead of just slapping onto a standing object just look towards the ground and make it like your going to swing it. Don't toss it just yet, just keep looking at the ground and then press B. And there you have a ground grade sure to get loads of kills in the general area.

Maybe pretty soon, I'll start slapping the granades to a boom shield and walk around with it on there. I've accidently done so and I had it the wrong way. Blew myself up instead of others. But it should work the same if you do it correctly. That way your protected and armed with explosives.

[Hatake_Kakashi_Sensei]

i do the grenade thing to the ground. its really easy to put them on steps because most likely your not paying attention when your going down them

[Theo Misaki]

I notice that the granades explode in a circular way so placing them on the gr9oound and or steps is a good way to make sure you enemy is dumb enough to die by it. I might also test and set is you can places a granade on a friends hostage just in case someone else runs up on him. Test this out and it'll be yet another glitch that just randomly came to mind. And it too may be a great tool as well.
