[Official] Gears of War 2

[sambrentnall]

I didn't have the Internet when I first got gow2 so me and my friend tried horde on hardcore n got to level 11, you deffo need more ppl to play it! Can't wait to complete it :D

[Rookas]

are you sure? That's werid cause I haven't seen anyone else having this problem. I haven't tried Co-Op splitscreen myself yet though.

Oh yeah, I'm sure. What happened is I signed in and loaded the game. While it was loading my friend signed into his account, so when the game loaded he had control. I opened the guide and closed it again to re-gain control of the game, and at that point my save was wiped out. Not my game saves, like my progress, but just my kill count and progress towards the achievements. I beat the game today but didn't get the achievements, I just got the "does this look infected?" achievement. Also, if I try to load a chapter I can only choose from acts 1,5 and 6. Weird stuff, but I'm just gonna play through again on insane and get 300 points for it.

edit: I take that back, I can't play on insane. It's still locked, even though I beat the game today. Annoying...

maybe look through the select chapter screen to see if it says you've finished all of them... don't know about the kill count problem though that seems ridiculous, i wouldnt want to start on my 6k kills again

I just went through campaign co-op without getting the achievement. We both changed our difficulty part way through so that may be why.

Same here I cant kill the reaver to your left in the time before it kills you, even though I am using a turret. Quite sure that you can only do it with co-op.

I did it on my own. I aimed for the body of the reaver and cooled down only when I need to. Single player insane is definitely not impossible.

[Pheee]

Are we getting any NW matches setup soon, maybe this weekend?

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

I'm down for that definitely.

[Remysaus]

I might join in if i get the time and feel like playing online :)

[sambrentnall]

I'm up for it!! Dot think il be online untill sometime after 11 though!

[spenser.d]

I'll be free to play pretty much all day tomorrow (Friday).

Neowin Horde Mode? Definately!

So at the end of the credits, is Adam Fenix saying we shouldn't have sank Jacinto?

It would seem so, yes.

Level 43 on Horde after 2 hours playing with friends from work.

I bet that was a ton of fun.

It's too bad most people you meet on matchmaking don't know you have to use teamwork and pick a good spot in order to be successful.

Perhaps, anything is a guess right now. Maybe he is with the Locusts and not dead, the Queen spoke about him.

I think that is a pretty safe bet to say Adam and the Locust will be in cohorts next time around.

You think so?

I thought maybe they some how faked his voice?

I was playing near the end of the campaign (attack on Jacinto) and was at that part where there are Gears on two sides of a street shooting down. After you kill everybody you are supposed to go across the bridge to defend the ComArray. Well as the bridge was coming to me I rolled forward to get moving and I fell down to the first level of the street accidentally. So I wondered around a bit to where you fight those Brumaks and here is what I saw

I heard my boss get cussed out by his boss, and my boss cuss back, and I went into work today and it was like nothing happened.

Is that anything important you found? (Not trying to sound rude, honest question.)

[zach_]

It's just a glitch :p You can see he's outside the map with floating buildings.

No, I restarted to the last checkpoint after taking that picture. I just thought it was a funny incident. I'm not one to intentionally try to glitch something to figure hidden things.

Spooky and I got up to mid-way through the 4th Act last night (me on Insane, him on Hardcore). The bit in the tank sequence when you have to destroy the tower was ****ing difficult, we spent like 40 minutes on it lol. Everything else is pretty easy when you get used to the AI, but Insane must be just about impossible by yourself...
