[Official] Gears of War 2


Recommended Posts

Spooky, Larry, and everyone else, great 50 waves there.

I can't believe I ran out to get the game when you guys started on 1 and got back to my house at 23.

Let's do it on a harder difficulty...can't wait.

Didn't we restart when you joined? I can't fully remember lol...

What difficulty did you guys do it on?

Casual, but if you didn't work as a team you got mobbed lol. Those damn Bloodhounds every 10 waves are a pain in the butt. The Grinders are probably the worst though when they get 2x Health, Accuracy and Damage since they have seemingly infinite range...

I'll definitely be playing tomorrow so if you start a game, be sure to invite me.

Casual? Pfft, noobs :p

Anyone want to get some NW matches on XBL going? Or anyone up for Horde? Habnad, Kick and I are going on now..

@Massive, you can't drop in and out of Horde afaik, so they'd have to restart for you to join.

Well you got the acheievement, so you did it from 1, and also I joined when you guys restarted, and you were there :p

Yeah that's right, we quit when DL wanted to invite Massive and then you hopped in at the same time. We were playing on Day One I think. Made it up to wave 9 or 10 and then DL said Massive had got home...

Yep, we definitely did start from 1.

Fun times all, without a doubt. I honestly cannot imagine ever doing Horde on Hardcore and getting to 50, I really cannot, but who knows.

@lylesback - I was going to invite you but when I was done eating lunch and I got the invite from these guys, I saw you were already on Wave 28, so I thought you probably did not want to restart at that point. Just wanted to let you know it was definitely not intentional.

Just beat the game... and it was amazing. It improved upon the original in almost every way. Much more fun. Epic still needs to work on the driving levels (well, except the last one... that one was fun ;)), but other than that I can't find too much to complain about.

Now once my roommate gets back we'll do a co-op game with me on Insane and him on Casual :D

I guess you guys are right. I guess I was just overwhelmed with everything...you know...complaining to larry that my rental didn't come in, contemplating buying the game, running out to buy the game, and running home and popping it in and joining the party...All within 20 mins LOL!

And then screaming down the mic on Wave 2 when a Butcher came towards you :laugh:

It's all about the insane :p three of us got to level 10 on 'First Day' I think the map is called. From there we couldn't do it.

    • FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 by Razvan Serea FotoSketcher Studio is a free creative tool that instantly turns your photos into artwork. With just a few clicks, you can apply styles like pencil sketches, watercolor, oil painting, ink drawings, cartoons, and abstract effects. Powerful yet simple sliders let you adjust every detail to match your vision, from subtle enhancements to bold artistic transformations. You can also improve your images with tools for contrast, sharpness, color, and brightness, plus add frames and text. It supports JPEG, PNG (including transparency), BMP, and WebP formats for both opening and exporting. Available for Windows (64-bit) and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), FotoSketcher also offers batch processing, manual retouching, and custom effects for advanced users. Completely free, including commercial use, with no ads or spyware. FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 changelog: New LUTs effect In the Photo Lab category you will find a new LUTs (Lookup Tables) effect for custom colour grading. It comes with 18 presets built right into the application (Cinematic, Kodachrome, Golden hour, Portrait and more), each with a live preview so you can see the look before applying it. Right-click the preview to compare with your original image. And if you have your own .cube files, you can load those from disk too. New "Stylize" category Added a brand-new Stylize category with four new effects. Three of them (Mosaic, Circles and Triangles) are built on the same space-filling idea, turning your photo into tiled mosaics, clusters of circles, or a low-poly triangle look. The fourth, Cartoon, is a bit different: it gives a clean graphic style with defined lines and solid colours. A little tip - set the colour intensity to 0 and Cartoon draws a pure outline drawing with no fill. Combined with the "Do not erase background" option, you can run it on top of any other effect to add crisp contours in two quick steps. Auto-Enhance and Full Reset Two small but handy additions. Auto-Enhance (just press E) tries to optimise your source photo - exposure, white balance, local contrast - for a 'dehazed', natural-looking starting point. And Full Reset clears everything back to a clean slate in one step (working image, history, LUT, script, brushes and sliders) without having to close and reopen the program. Press Ctrl+Shift+N, or right-click the exit button. Scripts The script engine has been updated to support all the new effects, with a few new commands and improved help. If you would like some inspiration, the recent scripting tutorial on this blog walks through several ready-made example scripts. The usual improvements The interface now uses new colour accents for better readability, the history gallery has had a few tweaks, and you can now open .webp images directly. On top of that, this release includes some performance improvements and a good number of bug fixes.
