i like the first gow matchmaking 10x better
both campaigns are good but gears 2 campaign is tight
cole on the microphone was hilarious

MATCHMAKING

gears 1 positives:::

quick scope with shotty
find ur match 10x easier
achievments r better then gow2
smoke grenades r actully smoke unlike gow2
weapons were balanced fine

gears 2 positives:::

no host
planting grenades is tight

gears 1 negatives:::

just the glitches really (ofc i didnt do any of these lol)
weapon sliding
chainsaw glitching
crabwalking
kung fu flip
host was kind of cheap sometimes hence i didnt host many games cause kids quit and it bored me

gears 2 negatives:::

lets take 324982374987 minutes to find a matchmaking game, switch matchmaking to gow style but with pregame lobby for friends
shotty sucks hard
chainsaw is rediculous
lets get shot accross map and not b able to move cause the stun is rediculous, they made that way to gay
chainsaw matches should finish b4 u can kill the other person, shud act just like a execution
smoke grenades arnt smoke they r retarded and last 1 second smoke and they stun? since when r smoke grenades stun grenades also? they r dumb




i probably left out a few things i couldnt think of but yea

Matchmaking does suck, but being able to rank up with your friends through a public match is incredible, I'm glad they took that from Halo... kinda.

I think they should have made a seperate stun grenade and smoke grenade, not combined them into one noob nade.

Shotguns are weak, which I hate.

As much as I loved Active downing people with the sniper I am very happy they made it a headshot or nothing. I know there are more things, but I don't feel like thinking of them.

Chainsaw is overpowered.
Removing the sniper active down was terrible, now the sniper sucks.
Takes way too long to find a match (like you said).
If you're in a party sometimes it randomly drops people after 34253453425 minutes to find the match.
Having the weps switch every round is retarded since on some maps like Hail you'll either get real nades or the shitty poison ones by the spawn.
Execution time is WAYYYY too long. Should only be 5 seconds.

And the worst of the worst:

I can't even choose the specific gametype I want. I NEVER EVER want to play guardian but since they have a gay vote for everything, too often the other team wants it so I'm forced to play a gametype I hate. I should be able to choose Execution everytime if I want.

removing sniper active down is awesome cause now it takes skill to get headshots and not b a pussy with active downs
lol at u cause u were prolly one of the kids all u did was active down cause u suck at headshots
i on the other hand rape face on gow1
average 35 kills a game off host if not more
and when i host its pointless i make kids quit
my host is rediculous and i avaerage 50-60 kills a game on host

Active downs makes it a threat.
You probably suck dick at gow1 and cried when you got active downed. It's alright, they pussified the game for shitties like you.
Of course we can all make up numbers out of our ass.

edit: Nice profile picture btw. Real e-thug. Why would you post a shirtless picture on a website that's almost entirely guys you scrawny faggot?

Why am I the only one who doesn't have a hard time finding matches? It takes me at most...15-20 seconds to get in one.

Chainsaw...wow.

Playing guardian, I think I counted something liek 20 some odd chainsaw kills from both teams combined.

Felt good when I killed the enemy leader via bullets & two tags

It really depends on when I'm searching for matches. If it's when I first get on it takes forever but if it's after I've been playing a couple matches I find them quick.

shotty is how it was supposed to be...weapons werent balanced in gow 1.... shotty was way too overpowered, hammer of dawn had unlimited ammo, if u nerf the chainsaw in gears 2 and put only 2 rockets for boomer, weapons will be balanced

and for the no host... im not sure about that... the way it looks is that an host is picked through players cos i dont believe epic servers would have bad connection enough to result in such a lag that u cant move u constantly wrap(happen a few times in publics to me, and i have a good connection), at least if a host is picked, pick the best connection

From what I've heard, they both suck.

Nulled.
