Gears of War 2 is good.

In other news, Pluvia, couldn't you just lie and get the code?
Also, Gears of War 3 has been pushed to September 20th.
One moooore thing (Jackie Chan Adventures <3), Epic makes kickbuttocksgames
The game wasn't pushed back. It was already said to be released in NA on the 20th of September.

:/ I didn't do the thing so I didn't get my beta code

Oh well, back to waiting for another week before playing the beta
This will let you clear up your backlog!

Well yeah.. I'm pretty sure expertzone is all out of codes, or the time is over to give out the codes. Good **** to ppl who were able to grab em.

I got a code yesterday from expertzone. My judgement so far: The game is amazingly well done, but the gameplay is too simple right now. All the weapons need a power decrease because it feels like I'm playing CoD. Mantle kicking needs to go, because it ruins the idea of being in cover, and makes approaching someone in cover impossible. The sawed-off makes the regular shotgun pointless, because the sawed-off will win pretty much any close-quarters fight, and the fact that it has a long reload time and only 4 shots doesn't matter right now because in most situations where you would meet more than 1 person you'de die with any weapon because the damage is so high. Wallbouncing is almost useless because weapons do too much damage. The retro-lancer has ridiculous damage (even compared to the already ridiculous damage of everything else) and the bayonett charge can be used very actively, much more practical than a chainsaw.

I'm working on a gears 3 beta minitage :o

Judging by their actions on GoW2, they'll listen to fans and take 9 months to fix it and then make the weapons stronger in their last update.

I wouldn't be talking. We all complain.
What he's said seems a bit excessive though

Smoke grenades. 9 months to remove the stun.

Ironically they re-added it almost. Like I said, inbred donkeys.

That's just exaggerating it really

You just can't shoot.
You can still move around.
Also, How is the melee working? I always thought they should let you roll after you get melee'd.

Yeah stop complaining Pluvia.

They have a patching team? God how does IW allow them to eat **** while they get paid big bucks?

How much stuff have they patched? Like three things and one of them being a glitch that shouldve been fixed a year ago?

have fun ODIN, you lucky guy.

That's different that's MW2. There's more things wrong in MW2 than the whole GoW series as a whole

EDIT: I think Drake is a voice actor instead of an actual actor

Which sucks because Drake sucks

Melee got nerfed. Two piece is ****, along with just meleeing. It's as if they lowered the range or something? I'm not quite sure what it is, but it's really bad.

Nades got hit hard also, you can seriously run up to planted frag, kiss it and listen to the beep then roll away. Boom got nerfed also, but it's more like gow1 boom, +1 shot though.

And by the looks of this they made it that if you get tagged with a smoke you get downed.
That looks more like a glitch though :/

And man, I just saw that Inside Xbox vid they have on the marketplace on GoW3. The Gnasher looks broken if you can blind fire and not even have to be aiming at them to kill them, the Retro Lancer does not look as bad as everyone is making it out to be since you should be easily be able to counter that with a shotgun, the One Shot looks beast, the fact that you can now take someone down by just blindifiring with a Lancer easily is lol, and the fact that we now have dedicated servers is success

Also, pumped as hell to be playing Anya.

EDIT:

and wtf now you can literally beat the crap out of someone before you execute them? Talk about insult to injury. You can literally rip someone's arm off and hit them with it wtf? O_O

All of these are good things.

@ the person with kanji-- The retro is CRAZY up close. Honestly, i think retro beats gnasher. Gnasher is perfect right now though, it's actually reliable. Long range is still incredibly important in this game, but shotgun does what it's supposed to do. Same thing with the sniper, it's ****ing amazing. Shooting someone in the head results in a "headshot" not just a bloody nose (gow2) If they just copy and pasted the beta onto the retail I think this would be the best game ever crafted.

@TRG-- Yeah i know, as epic said in that video they made.. gow3 has been "polished" I really haven't found anything bad to say about Gow3 except little glitches, which I'm positive they'll fix.

Randomly on trenches you'll be unable to pick up ammo that's dropped, the weapon will just fall into the ground.

Oh and I was playing ranked last night, we were Cog and someone on the locust team was playing as thrash ball cole...

Sawed off and retro are just really annoying, not over powered though. If they get nerfed they'll be complete garbage imo :|

They're aware of these problems and they will be fixed in the final retail game. :bee:

EDIT:

If all things go as they should then Bulletstorm EE owners should get access to the #gears3beta at 2AM PST Monday (17 hrs from now)

So 10am when the beta hits for me. No work till Wednesday either, so I'm excited to see how good it's going to be.

I'm not getting my hopes up though.

Pluvia I love you and your ENGLISH accent..
BUT STOP COMPLAINING.
Everyone who is playing it is ****ting bricks on how good it is, so stop being such a pessimist.
Look on the brightside.
WOAH
I didn't know that posts appear if they happen while you are monitoring the page. Twinkie you scared the **** out of me.

I like all Peaches, *****.
Ah, I dunno. One day at a smash tournament I lost like 20 matches in a row. Being angry, I picked up one of my worst characters, peach, and won. My friend said "OH GOD PEACH IS INVADING" and since then, I've been making avatars of the peach invasion.

On topic, I've been watching a friend play, and the Gnasher looks exactly like it should. The hammerburst downs really fast by the looks of it though. The Lancer charge doesn't look overpowered like I thought, either.

Yeah, that's me playing, and that's my gears youtube account. If you've seen my gears 2 videos, you'll notice I play annex mostly. I got sick of exe and warz because connections were too inconsistent. But if I ever get off this beta I'll definitely play with you sometime. My get is iimuraii
