Gears of War 3 Scratch one grub!

Play Ranked. Everyone is terrible in quick team deathmatch anyways. Team deathmatch in general people are pretty lousy. Try out ranked execution.

Yeah I stopped playing quick TDM after the first week, got boring. I only play quick Warzone by myself but when my friends are online I play Ranked.

I forgot Gears 1 had that problem, havent played it in years and I only ever played it in a friends house. Never played Gears 2 online, only ever heard bad things about it.

I hope they make an Insane Beast playlist. I want that Savage Theron skin. I got to wave 12 on Insane twice by myself, but I cant beat it. By the time I get to wave 12, I have $50k. Having to execute the Onyx Guards is a pain, and it doesnt help that they have scorchers, and one shots to stop my berzerkers cold.

Last weekend was Insane beast online all weekend long. I completed it twice :tup:.

That was Hardcore not Insane.

whoops you are correct

Yo “BOOOOOOOOOOOM SNIPES” is mad fun. Like, so high stakes all the time. I played it by myself since my friends were 47 levels deep in insane horde with only 3 people, and I played against some shit clan that is now sending me hate voicemail. :slight_smile:

I looked at the Leaderboard rankings and I had to be #1 in my friend’s list…but Reth SRK is on top.

FOR EVERYTHING.

Still haven’t played with him, but looking at his stats he’s a beast. Beats me out in basically everything.

Damn had a rough streak this weekend. Leveled up though I think… im starting to win the majority of my dancing shotty battles even with level 100’s lol. Lost a shitload of matches this weekend though… Ranked execution was a bitch. Played a couple of teams who were all level 100 and it was crazy how quick the killed you.

Boooooooooom Snipes is a blast. Will be sad when it goes. Got a lot better with the Sniper which is nice because that was easily my weakest weapon.

I wish I could play some shitty people so my K/D wasn’t so bad lol

I almost love BooooooomSnipes, but that damn sniper shit, man… I got one beautiful headshot in the few times I’ve played it, and I consider that one to be pure luck(*basically, the guy had no idea I was out there…actually, that’s the whole point of sniping now that I think about it…but still, I’m usually terrible with sniper rifles in any game). I’d probably have more fun if it was 100% boomshots, with just a pistol for backup. For some reason, a lucky/bullshit boomshot kill is more funny and entertaining to me. I got the winning shot the other day on Gridlock at the end of a match… I was out on street level, and randomly launched a shot up into one of the buildings. Hahah, there just happened to be someone hiding in there, and it got him! Hilarious.

edit— currently watching DarkSydePhill’s Horde vids again…some of the moments are funny, like him squatting with a mulcher in the middle of the street on Overpass with NO cover… hilarious.

This is some cheap shit I found in Boomsnipes.

In Dry dock if the enemy team tries to camp at their spawn(the spawn near the ocean/the ending battle against shredder in TMNT 2) if you go to the middle bridge, near the torque bow spawn there’s a bunch of boxes and small metal bar that when zoomed in lets you shoot through it while the campers can’t see/shoot you. It’s super cheap, and got me a bunch of kills last night, I love it.

Here’s a better visual guide to what I’m talking about, Red is me and the Blue is the view I get for free with no danger of being headshotted.

All the multiplayer maps will be free on November 24th.

Yo Clocktower for freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I AM IN THERE.

So yeah.

EDIT: The other maps are Swamp, Azura, Blood Drive and Rustlung. And free for PUBLIC matches, so I guess people who don’t get the season pass can’t play them in Private/local.

Initial impressions about the DLC

Stages:

Rustlung:

Awesome execution map in my opinion. I don’t think it will be a great team deathmatch/ctl/koth map though because the team who doesn’t have the Silverback won’t be having a good time. I like how this level is pretty bare bones and the only real weapon to rush besides the silverback when it becomes availible is the frags. In round 2 it turn into incendiaries so not much weapon rushing the. 6.5/10 (Execution though I would give it a 9/10)

Azura:

Beautiful map that grew on me the more I played it in private. At first I wasn’t a huge fan because it reminded me a lot of Thrashball with a clear high up advantage pointwith the Mulcher/Boom. But both teams having free access to the sniper changes the dynamic and makes it pretty cool. Probably the better overall map out of the 2 new ones but Rustlung is still the better execution map. 7.5/10

Blood Drive:

Ahhhhhh the memories. My favorite Gears 2 map and I love it just as much now. I like the new look they gave it and being able to jump out the windows at the spawn is pretty cool. 10/10

Characters:

Big Rig: Ehhhh not a huge fan. Could be worse though

Bernie: I love the rug muncher. Will be using her in multiplayer every now and then.

Onyx Guard: New main :tup:. Looks fantastic and I love the deep echo in his voice.

Skins:

The skins are ok. Nothing special but they aren’t that bad.

The free DLC sort of pisses me off for the fact that 1 of my season pass downloads is now basically 3 characters and 2 skins. The people who bought the DLC indiviually should be even more pissed because they basically bought 3 characters and 2 skins for 800 MS points…

Bullshit Epic. Bullshit.

Wait, are the characters free too? or is it just the maps?

Just the 3 maps. If you want Bernie, Onyx Guard, Big Rig Dizzy, the 2 skins, the 250 more availible gamerpoints, and the extras in horde you have to buy the DLC.

lol, theres skins?

Damn, I wanted that Onyx Guard.

Well you cant have it :sunglasses:

And yes the skins are like a Black and Green tiger camo ish looking and basically another version of the Electric camo (sucks for people who bought this lol)
