[X360] Gears of War 2

[AridMonk]

Well, its out on friday!

Thought I would start up this to see if anyone would be interested in playing a couple of games over the weekend, and possibly (if its any good) trying our hands at Horde mode.

If so, please post your Gamertag here, and I shall compose a wee list of them in the standard Forum Nick, GT fashion.

[AzMiLion]

In when i get it too, the best gaming is gaming with dolts.

AzMiLion/AzMiLion

[Starblade]

RBA Starblade. I'll be the guy trying very hard to be, instead of using proper tactics and strategy, just rushing forward with the chainsaw buzzing or trying to stick grenades to heads.

[Shoota Fodder]

Count me in once I get it.

Shoota Fodder/ Shoota Fodder

lulz

[Ewokz]

Got it today, be ready for some Mp around 9am tomorro (GMT) if anyone wants to play.

[AridMonk]

List Updated.

I'll be on tonight at 8ish GMT for those who are wanting to play.

Have to say, for the couple of games I have played, it feels a far more solid experience than GoW 1.

[Hirmetrium]

Hirmetrium/Hirmetrium

Currently Act 4+5 on Co-op, waves 38+ on horde. I'm up for a game or two.

Already got Azmillion and Coated

[AzMiLion]

Horde, anyone?

[AshaD]

For when the 360 is fixed.

GT: Thrasha D

[Ewokz]

everyone ok with a horde game at 8pm tonight GMT if I invite you lot?

EDIT: we've only got 4 avalible slots for horde so could you post up if yopu wanna join in?

[AridMonk]

Updated.

I will be online in 15minutes if anyone is up for it?

[Ewokz]

Ok just an update for a game, thought I'd get it in early.

Game tomorro (10th nov) at 7pm (GMT).
Can everyone who wants to play horde either pm my xbox account or post here, thanks

[Hirmetrium]

I'm up for a game that time. Be sure to add me, got CTP on my list already, he helped me do wave 50 of horde with some buddies ^_^

[IgnusDei]

Gamertag's the same as my nick here.

Feel free to add me to your friends list, i should be on often.

[CommodoreKitty]

I'm up for sum Horde, beat it yesterday on hardcore with some friends, it was pretty intense.

[Ewokz]

Ok off to school now, justing wondering what map and what difficultly you guys what for the game.
P.s. Nice going beating level 50 furthest I've got is level 20 with my brother on split screen.

[AridMonk]

got CTP on my list already, he helped me do wave 50 of horde with some buddies

Ha, I hid and cried until it was all over you mean

The Herald - I should be on at around that time, I'd be up for a couple of games.

[Hirmetrium]

Eh, sorry I've not been responding, been trying to finish campaign on Insane Co-op - finally managed it tonight, as well as finishing off some other achievements.

I am an achievement whore

[AridMonk]

Commodore, is your GT right? It keeps coming up that you dont exist.

[CommodoreKitty]

Really? That's weird. Yeah the tag is correct, but I don't know why it is not showing up.

[Ewokz]

yea its doing the same for me CommodoreKitty it says you don't exist

[Infidelicious]

Just bought the game.

Infide1icious

[CommodoreKitty]

Thats really, really odd. What about the old one, Lordofsculls? I changed that name something like six months ago, but I can't see what else it could be. Just to be sure, I copy/pasted my mane from xboxlive.com to here so I know what I put down is correct.

Hmm, the internets h8 meh.

[AridMonk]

Try adding us instead, that might work.

[Genome]

when im on count me in. Beats playing complete randoms.

Genome / OmegaTreeFish

[Infidelicious]

Anyone down for some horde?

[p0seidon]

Picking up the game next week so I'll dump the GT here as preparation .

Bought the game.

Left Wing / leftywings

[AridMonk]

Game of horde, tonight 7pm GMT, looking to have a real go at doing all 50 levels in one sitting, if anyones up for it, leave a comment here or just show up, either will be fine :P

[Infidelicious]

What time is that PST?

[AridMonk]

11am PST.

[p0seidon]

I'll be there , just got the game about 3 hours ago, had a lot of fun playing a good chunk of the first chapter on COOP with zell :>

[Infidelicious]

I'm going on now. Add me if you want to coop or horde.

[under_score]

I may be able to make it at 7.00/8.00 pm for horde tonight if there are enough spaces

EDIT.
Not any more |sad face|

[Hirmetrium]

Count me in on the horde thing. I recommend Security or River, since thats what I did all of the waves on.

[Ewokz]

Sorry guys won't be able to go on tonight, could join a game tomorro though

[CommodoreKitty]

What difficulty will it be? Hardcore or insane? (And I found that using the hammer and mortar spawn on Day One worked really well. That hammer is great for the bloodmounts and boomers.)

[Hirmetrium]

Normal seems to work best, I've completed a majority of horde on Day One too, but the Hammer of Dawn seems shit now it has limited ammo...

Were planning a run through at the weekend - Was only me, CTP and Leftwing on tonight, which made playing very difficult (plus we started messing around at the end, trying to shotgun them and everything :P)

[p0seidon]

It was great fun though, especially near the end where I had to leave and we started camping in that shed .

[Infidelicious]

bah. just woke up.

[AridMonk]

Right then, trying to get together a game for either tonight or tomorrow during the day, say 7pm tonight again and perhaps midday tomorrow, really need the full compliment to get a good chance at finishing off the horde! As before post in here or just show up, im sure Lefty and Hirmetrium will tell you that you WILL have some good fun!

[Kirjava]

GT: Kirjava13

Am on Horde level 39 myself, we've been doing it on Jacinto and barricading ourselves in one of the upstairs bits where the grenades spawn, trying to gun down, chainsaw or blow up everything that comes at us. If we're lucky we can take out a Mauler or two and use their shields to block off the stairs so close-combat Locust like Sires or more Maulers can't get to us, which is handy. Only problem comes when you run out of ammo... hell, we're only doing it on Normal

[CoatedTrout]

I'll be on tonight and tommorow.

[Kirjava]

Does anyone have trouble getting into matchmaking?

[Infidelicious]

Just popped in on XBL and nobody is on.

Yeah, matchmaking solo unless it's late at night is slow as fuck.
