Worst....ending....ever! Thoroughly enjoyed the game as a whole, but COME ON! The final 10 minutes you might as well have been invincible!?!

yeah I don't believe you could die.. lol.. it was a awesome ride though.

Just a heads up to anyone doing split screen. I played some last night with a friend and he signed into his profile while the game was loading (I was already signed in) and it wiped out my kill count! My save games are still there, they weren't affected, but my total kills and progress towards achievements like "Shock and Awe" and "Seriously 2.0" were reset back to zero. Not a big deal, I only had about 3000 kills and I've already got most of the other achievements, but I would've been pretty mad if I had tens of thousands of kills towards the seriously achievement. Be careful if you play split screen!

Just played multiplayer for the first time today. Definitely a huge improvement over the original Gears of War's multiplayer, but the matchmaking system needs a patch quite badly right now (I'm sure Epic and Microsoft will deliver the goods soon). A lot of my matchmaking attempts were met with a strange "Matchmaking was remotely reset (or something to that degree)" error, which pretty much went in an infinite loop until I manually cancelled out. It seems as though quite a few people are having that problem, so like I said, Epic will probably have it fixed up soon.

Once I actually got into a game, it was really nice. I have a pretty awful connection at home, but I hardly felt any lag at all (maybe I'm just having a good day). From somebody who had a difficult time getting into the original game's multiplayer, the quick games of Annex I had were good times all around.

I think this is a definite skip for me, I liked the first one but since I was never able to finish it (yeah I suck, I can't beat RAAM :p) I lost interest very quickly. The next UE3 powered game I'm pumped for is ME2 :D

I loved the ending, personally. I like it when it's a change from "annoying boss battle" finishes.

While I agree with that, I thought storywise the ending left a lot to be desired. I think it ended very abruptly considering how many new things it brought to the storyline during the game. I don't think it was bad - I liked it, but I still think it was rather abrupt.

Just IMO, but the ending was more satisfying than the first Gears ending. That ending just left me like, "eh? So?"

Not an amazing ending in terms of story, but I like how it left a lot of questions unanswered. Half-Life 2 games do the same thing.

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.

Congrats.

I tried with two guys that knew each other, and three other guys that didn't. We made it up to level 30 but didn't get past it. One of the guys dropped out a couple of rounds earlier.

Played a bit last night. Transferred my account to friends box. Played a bit made it to like 28 or something on insane with 5 people. Then him and I did it duo to like 10 or something on the map "Security". Doesn't seem to bad, I enjoyed the horde though.

Still can't find a ****ing game. I can successfully''search for team mates'' but I never get beyond ''connecting to a match''

I got the game yesterday, and I tried couple of times to find a horde game with no luck! WTF!? I do not have any problems with other games. This is for the first time.

Im having the same issue, MS and Epic know about it and are supposed to be sorting it.

I just wish they would do it already lol!!

Doing CoOp Campaign with a friend, and we left off last night on the Giant Sea Worm On The Boat part.

I see the pattern that needs to be done, go in the mouth and shoot the small tentacles then the middle when it opens, but how many times do we need to do it? Any advice on best ways to get that part done?

You throw grenades into the mouth with it kinda pops out (the section with teeth) after shooting the blue tentacles, I think you gotta chuck 3 grenades in there

Hope that helps
