I don't see how Epic was taking jabs at Halo at all. They took a jab at Doom with the whole flashlight thing in one of the levels (where you have to escort Dizzy through a dark tunnel), but I don't remember any jabs -- explicit or implied -- at Halo. :blink:

How about the reference to the "cave is not a natural formation" when you enter the backdoor to the nexus.

Waiting in excess of 5 minutes to get in a multiplayer game is poor
Are the match-making problems still there?

My Experience so far with MP, I wait for ages to get into a game, sometimes it is faster, but on average too long. Once in game, I just cannot help but bend over and take it up the rear end, and get completely raped in the meantime.

Maybe its not my style of MP game, but I have had matches where nothing worked, bullets not going down and I could shoot forever without reload, and could not kill anyone, but the shoot once and kill me, great so far.

I would like to get into it, but I have had better experience with Resistance 2 or COD:WaW, always get into a match quickly, and have good fun, and I dont get completely trashed on.

Horde mode on the other hand is fine, and had fun.

Ok, all my settings of Gears just got reseted. All my Unlockables is like I didn't play at all.. :s This is retarded. Means I have to play through the whole bloody thing again. To get everything back. and yes, even my collectables are gone. All of them. Funny that I've already have the achievement for it though. This is still retarded.

Why oh why did I just attempt to give it a go, its worse than before :angry:

I cannot believe how screwed up this game really is, it's meant to be the title of the year for the 360!

Edit: Just had it stuck on 'Cancelling matchmaking' for 5 minutes, had to quit to dash to get out!

Randomly out of the Blue;

My disc/(console?) froze twice last night and then i randomly got a disc unreadable error even thou the disc is clean as a whistle not even a fingerprint never mind a scratch - plus why the disc unreadable came up when the game would have been reading off the hard-drive as it was installed? It has also happened to one of my mates!

Apparently this is quite a wide spread problem and there is quite a few posts relating to it on the Epic Forums, has anyone suffered this issue and if so do you have a fix?

The update didn't seem to fix the matchmaking problems. It took my friend and I ten minutes to find a match last night. Also they still need to work out a ton of stuff. Lag for instance is sometimes just down right horrible. I really wish it would pick a host that didn't have the bandwidth to host the damn map. Also I wish other people could join a match already in progress when someone leaves the game.

Yeah it is, it shouldn't be taking this long to sort out. It's the same story with LBP :no:

Two games I was looking forward to playing online with friends and because of the network problems I don't even wanna play them :(

+1

After the LBP release I just didnt want a PS3 anymore :/

      Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels Users should be able to fully uninstall AI-based features from Android devices and be able to access interoperability functions, free from Google’s verification requirements, the European Commission has heard as part of an Android interoperability consultation under the Digital Markets Act. These measures were proposed by the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) last week when it submitted its documentation. The FSFE noted that Google had started silently installing AI models without telling users. It noted that the EU’s DMA requires companies like Google to allow users to uninstall pre-loaded software from their devices, but in the case of the AI models Google is installing, they reinstall if you delete them, contravening the DMA. To get Google back under control, the FSFE has told the European Commission that there needs to be improvements within the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). First, it said that users should be able to fully remove pre-loaded AI components from their devices, with companies being prohibited from silently reinstalling or reactivating them. Second, access to Android interoperability features should not be contingent on registration, authorization, or contractual relationships with Google. This pertains to Google’s attempt to force developers to register with Google, even to publish apps to alternative app stores like F-Droid. Discussing its submission, Lucas Lasota, FSFE Legal Programme Manager, said: Google is planning to roll out its Android Developer Certification in September 2026. This will force every Android app developer to register with Google before their software can be installed on certified Android devices, but it should affect those who have removed Google Apps from their device. The program is controversial because it entails the signing of contracts and payment of account fees to Google, as well as the handing over of the identities of developers. It said: The FSFE said that if the Commission’s draft measures remain unchanged, then Google will be allowed to make developers verify their identity. The FSFE believes that asking developers to register is contrary to the text and spirit of the law. In summary, the FSFE has told the Commission that no developer should need a Google account, a Play Store presence, or any agreement with Google to access Android’s interoperability features.
