Gears of War 2: Official Thread

How is grouping me with 9 guys with gold things an example of this matchmaking working at all?

I'm hoping to stay up until this new dash drops.

but also because random people are 12-15 year old wannabe gangsters.

Fixed.

this game is such bullshit. I wish I could cap this shit. Of course every problem must be some kind of lag but when a guy rushes me straight up and I unload a shotgun blast into his face while he's touching me, and my gun clearly fires + quarter second after fire, I don't care how laggy that shit is he needs to die, not chainsaw me in the face.

Same old shit.

fucking truth man, those fuckers never communicate with the rest of the team and always end up fucking things up for everyone else. Biff, ElCap, and I kept having this problem the other day

That really sucks!

Hate them also when they get tunnel vision to get the highest score, some reason they think they can't die and they get ambushed and die at a really bad spot like 20 sec in a new round.

When one does it I guess you can survive with 4 people but when 2-3 does it, it's pretty much a waste of time.

Hope this weekend I can get 4 other mates from my list to play horde mode. Tired of these "it's all about my highscore" type of kids.

Yeah, I believe this game has some serious issues that need to be patched up right away but it is still fun to play. I can count numerous times where hopping a wall will result in the animation going through but you get warped back to your original position before the hop, annoying.

Chainsaw doesn't stun as easy in this game. I think this was one of those "X-factor" things Cliff was talking about to even the playing field? lol.

Also: I don't actually think that the military ranks mean anything in this game, contrary to that blurb Netwurked quoted. From what I've heard it's influenced by your standing on the leaderboards relative to your friends? Dunno, haven't played that much. But yeah, the game does use an invisible TrueSkill rating to find matches so I guess it's possible for people with low TrueSkill ratings to have just played a ton and have some of the higher ranks.

It's not that it didn't stun, it's that he didn't gib.
