I remember when they wanted Drake to do Jace’s voice then that was lost. Also about all 3 Carmines share a lot of the same quotes so there’s not much purpose of using either one unless you want one with “Grub Killer” on his chest.
BTW, I remember hearing Rod talking about Torque Bow Tag and Gnasher-only playlists for an event. So everyone who complains about the SOS can now get bodied in peace. He also said something about the Vengence medal was a pain to get so they are lowering it.
Anyways if anyone is down for some TDM, Execution, or heck even Horde, then hit me up.
just do warzone, 1 min, casual difficulty and just start killing them right away. Just used the TE stick to get the doorman onyx medal took almost 2 hours to get done though.
Yeah just maxed out my Barricades at 8, can’t imagine what a level 8 one does. I built a level 4 or 5 one recently that caught enemies on fire and stunned when they touched it, was sweet. Dummy is level 4, Sentry 2, Turret 2, and Silverback 1.
Execution wise unlocked: Lancer, R. Lancer, Hammerburst, Gnasher, Boomshot, Torque Bow, and Gorgon Pistol so far. Work on the Sawed Off next I guess, I’m not very good with it so I suppose Horde can help practice.
Great thing about Sawed-Off is that aiming really isn’t that important. As long as your character is looking in their general direction and is close, you get the kill. (*haha, unless they also have it and fired first, of course.) Also, one stupid thing about the bots I’ve noticed---- if they have a Sawed-Off and miss the shot (which is pretty easy if you roll backwards), it’s SUCH an easy kill on them, since they aren’t smart enough to immediately switch out to another weapon like any human player with even the slightest common sense would do…the bot will just try to reload the Sawed-Off for its next shot, so you have all the time in the world to walk up to it and kill with anything…the shit is hilarious.
*I got Super-Reload the other day as well…this might make Insane actually possible for me… I already had Act 1 on Insane beat, and I’ve started on Act 2 now. Of course, Super-Reload still doesn’t help the fact that there is no “down but not out” in Insane. Lose all your energy/life (which only takes a few shots…maybe 2 or 3!) = instant DEATH on that mode. The comedy goldmine that is “Laugh Track” mutator keeps everything funny though. "…Gears of War is filmed before a live studio audience…"
I just suck with it because I’m not used to nut-hugging my opponent in a shooter to get a kill with a gun, I can be a foot away and completely miss with the thing, it’s just hard to wrap my head around that it’s an embellished Melee weapon.
Did another Horde game, I can’t get a team to stick past round 29/30, two to three people always drop around then and we get fucked and I quit out. Just rather annoying, guess I need to get people on here and set some time aside to go to 50.
Played a game of Beast mode, got 2K more points than my nearest ally lol. I got the Godlike badge and the two lesser ones all in one game as the mighty BERZERKER! Cole got ran over pretty badly.
Sawed Off gib range reduced, no longer gibs longer range than the Gnasher. I fucking knew they were gonna nerf it, good thing I got the medal into gold and almost 3/4ths to onyx.
YES! Im like one of the only people in my friends who Love Execution. I freaking Hate TDM. People just stand back and Lancer/HB you all day. Gotta get up close and personal in Execution. Love it!
so the SO doesn’t have the extra 5 feet sometimes, Even with active?
When did they neft/patch it?
What is GIB?
wtf just happened, they talk about how the Lancer is dominating and how the SO doesn’t make up shyt for the kills and they are gonna nerf it?
How gnasher players should be “gibing” people, whaaaat!?
-I wonder if they are taking into consideration that the lancer is the only ONXY label that isn’t a generic MASTER or some shyt… prolly not…
haha, so I see the babies got their way, apparently/unsurprisingly. I hate to come off as harsh but that’s how all the complaining sounded to me. I love this particular quote on the examiner site:
“…This shows a fairly stark contrast between the more hardcore players who play in ranked matches and are smart enough to keep away from players that charge and roll in with either shotgun.”
It just seems like common sense to me…
-Weapon A is extremely dangerous if the enemy gets close.
-Weapon A happens to be a completely useless piece of shit if the enemy is even slightly far away.
How is it that some people don’t see the obvious conclusion about how to effectively kill such an opponent? Don’t let that bitch get close! You should only die if you’re caught off guard by that thing…and people who are taken by surprise in battle usually are going to die anyway as a result of that element of surprise. People would always rather complain about balance issues than figure out a tactical solution (and this requires all of what, 1.03 seconds of “deep” strategic thought?) to whatever the problem is. It just boggles the mind, man… people going on and on like you can snipe with that shit… they’re acting like this shit is the gun equivalent of the goddaman Infinity Gauntlet.
The gnasher is the op one but this whaaack! Active should be able to hit farther(further?) but maybe not gnasher range (i dunno what ghasner range is)
3 fuckin shots downs you from AR range anyways.
when I hear people switch from AR to shotguns at start im like… fuuuking great…
People need to learn to run away from the so or just not even get close to people. the chainsaw is a good defensive tool too
It just seems like common sense to me…
-Weapon A is extremely dangerous if the enemy gets close. - Yes but the range it kills isn’t as close as it should be. It should be literally point blank as in my gun is practically touching you which isn’t the case. I personally have gotten a shitload of double kills against people who aren’t that close to me, its a straight noob cannon.
-Weapon A happens to be a completely useless piece of shit if the enemy is even slightly far away. - This wouldn’t be a problem if you didn’t start with another primary weapon that covers that distance the S/O can’t with ease. The Retro and the Lancer easily make up for the deficit you don’t have without the Gnasher.
And for the whole "Don’t let them get close to you issue. Its easy as fuck to get close to someone in this game thanks to a lot of the level designs and mobility options. Sure if you are 40 yards away from someone 1 on 1 and you see they have a S/O you can stop them easy. But they are fucking stupid if they are just bumrushing you with the S/O. Usually they will close the distance with their primary before the bust out the noob cannon for easy kills.
If they toned down the range to point blank like epic actually states and didn’t make it shoot in a 180 degree radius it would be much more balanced. Actually no, it isn’t necassarily unbalanced it just dumbs down the play of the game sometimes when you have a whole team (or only a couple) running a weapon where you get somewhat close and “fire in the general vicinity” to get a kill.
I’ve been busy in the lab for mvc3 preparing for umvc3 but I’ll be on tonight. A lot of people here claiming everyone uses SO but the numbers above don’t reflect that lol.
So happy the sawed off got nerfed the range was just ridiculous. I don’t think alot of people are going to make the switch to the gnasher. The gun is still very beginner friendly, they just have to take 2 extra steps now which is damn easy in this game with wallbouncing.
And this shouldn’t be a problem for people who say it fits their playstyle.The gun is still very effective and if you truly enjoy the way the gun plays you will use it regardless.
