[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.

    • TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results
    • Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?
    • There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
    • AMD 26.6.2 driver brings FSR 4.1 support to RDNA 3 RX 7000 series graphics cards by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe A new driver is rolling out to Radeon graphics hardware owners, and alongside support for new games, AMD has just made its FSR 4.1 upscaling tech available to an entire generation of its products. Last month, AMD announced it is answering community requests to bring FSR 4.1 to past generations of its Radeon graphics cards. This would be starting with RDNA 3 RX 7000 products. Right on schedule, this is what's rolling out now with the AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 driver containing official support for over 300 games. Following this, AMD is planning to bring out RDNA 2 (RX 6000 series) support for FSR 4.1 sometime in early 2027. As for the games, this Adrenalin 26.6.2 driver is a recommended install for anyone jumping into Ubisoft's upcoming Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced remake or id Software's DOOM: The Dark Ages' Revelations expansion. The two fixed issues in this release are these: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing RoadCraft on Radeon™ RX 7000 series products. Purple screen may be displayed when using an HP Reverb G2 headset with SteamVR on Radeon™ RX 6000 series graphics products. The known issues AMD is still working on are the following: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing Battlefield 6 on AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. AMD is actively working on a resolution with the developer to be released as soon as possible. Texture flickering or corruption may appear while playing Battlefield 6 with AMD Record and Stream on some AMD graphics products. AMD FSR Upscaling and AMD FSR Frame Generation may show as inactive in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition while playing Battlefield 6 when enabled on Radeon™ RX 9000 series graphics products. Failure to install may be observed while installing AI Bundle components in some regions with limited access to HuggingFace and GitHub. Model flickering or rendering failure may be observed in Maxon Cinema 4D and Blender on Radeon RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. Intermittent application crash may be observed on some models while running Blender on Radeon RX 7000 and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1.
