Gears of War 2-Kafeèn!

*Mine innlegg*

 

Ser spennende ut dette. Bare de beholder det som var bra med 1'ern, og ikke tenker at de må fornye så mye at de glemmer det virkelige Gears. Ellers så får vi håpe at de fikser sånne små irriterende ting som for eksempel at når man spiller med guest, så havner man stort sett på samme lag, noe man ikke gjorde i 1'ern.

Og, ikke minst, at de gjør et eller annet slik at det lagger mindre, slik at det blir mer spillbart på blant annet system link.

Synes det er greit at det kommer mye nytt. Hvis man ikke vil ha endringer er det bare å spille Gears 1.

[boffeeen]

Vil i praksis ha Eneren, med mange nye maps og kanskje et ekstra våpen eller to.

[Essem]

Seriøst? Ingen flere endringer enn det? Det ville vært ganske kjipt...

[Lakus]

Er enig med boff3n.

Gears of War en ble såpass populært fordi spillet var enkelt å lære seg, men vanskelig å mestre. Blir det for mye stas osv mister det litt av edgen spillet har mot andre i sjangeren.

 

Om det blir for mye håper jeg på en Old School gametype.

En av de nye modusene heter Guardian. I denne modusen blir en av lagkameratene valgt som leder og dør han vinner det andre laget. Utfordringen blir med andre ord å holde sjefen i live. De andre spillerne på laget vil komme tilbake når de blir drept.

Med andre ord Assassination.

 

Den modusen der 2 spillere kontrollerer èn fyr vs to andre som gjør det samme kunne blitt litt kult.

Selve linken er ikke lagt ut før, men all infoen er det.

Guardian er en ny versjon av Assasination, ikke en helt ny spillemodus.

[Gjest Slettet-NIoHlfL]

Hmm, har spilt gears på nett helt siden release, og tror ikke jeg har spilt Assissnation en gang ennå...

[Are..........]

Blitt lite av det her og. Hovedsaklig Warzone (eller hva det heter, veldig lenge siden jeg har spilt nå! ), og til dels annex etter at det kom ut. Litt rart egentlig. I Gears så var det egentlig nok med en gamemode å spille over veldig lang tid, mens for eksempel Halo hadde blitt en god god del kjedeligere om det bare hadde vært en gamemode.

-Saved films hinted at, but not confirmed

-Live on-screen damage ticker that tracks damage points is possible

-Altered MP achievements. "If you're going for headshots, you get one headshot that counts and any other headshots won't count towards your Achievement, so players don't just play to get headshots the entire round just to get Achievements."

-Achievement progress has now been simplified & will be tracked in real-time which is viewable through a menu

III. GAME MODES

 

-Assassination renamed and altered. Now known as 'Guardian'. Every player can respawn until the leader has been killed. The team with the remaining players is the winner

-Wingman is a new game mode focused on 2v2v2v2v2 (10 players split into teams of 2) battles. Each team will take control of the same character model. For example: Dom/Dom Vs. RAAM/RAAM Vs. Carmine/Carmine Vs. Drone/Drone Vs. Marcus/Marcus

-CTF game mode called 'Meatflag'. The flag is an AI controlled Stranded character wandering around the center of the map. That character has his own weapons and even a place on the leaderboard. To capture him; you will need to down him first, then pick him up as a meatshield, and take him back to your base. If you shoot the 'meatflag' enough times while he's being dragged back to the enemies' base, his captor will lose him and he'll go berserk on everyone around him. Respawning and stats for the amount of kills the AI-controlled 'meatflag' will appear on the intermission leaderboard. Respawning occurs in this mode, but the more that you die; the longer you'll have to wait until you get back into the action. The scoring in this gametype will move around to different random locations after a while.

VI. WEAPONS

 

-New chainsaw duels

-Player is no longer invincible while chainsawing. Attacks can be interrupted in mid-duel

-Two people can chainsaw one person

-The Lancer has a longer barrel that extends a bit farther than the chainsaw attachment, blue targeting cross-hair on the iron sights, new muzzle flashes, and firing sound effects. Also, new active-reload HUD display animation were seen for the Lancer and Hammerburst

-Retooled Hammerburst sounds beefier and has the ability for semi-automatic. It now has a barrel extension. The faster you tap the the right trigger, the faster it fires. However, with the faster fire rate comes more recoil. It is more accurate at longer range and does more damage than the Lancer

-Stopping power. If you're running towards an enemy and he is firing straight into your chest, you will slow down. Every weapon will have a different degree of stopping power

-Grenades can be stuck anywhere; not just on enemies. They can be planted on the ground, walls, doors, etc. to produce a proximity mine

-Smoke grenades now carry a concussive stun effect that ragdolls anyone within its blast radius and knocks any shields from their hands

-Shotgun remains unchanged

-Active reloads have been expanded. Different weapons have a different active reload effect

-Poison Gas Grenade is a new weapon. It produces a purplish, poisonous cloud that kills anyone that lingers into it. Grenades can be tagged onto enemies where they will slowly die. Grenade tagged players can also injure teammates if they get too close to them

-New weapon called the Scorcher Flamethrower. It is a power weapon that appears once in a map. Getting a perfect active reload increases the flames range. Is said to have the 'most realistic fire in a videogame ever'

-Bullet shields. Metal shield (adorned with Locust symbols) that blocks enemy fire. You can only equip a pistol when carrying the shield. Movement will be dramatically slower when using the shield. They can be planted into the ground to create new cover by squatting behind it. Enemies can kick it down if they get close enough

-Epic says plenty more weapons are on the way, including new additions to the superweapons class (alongside the Hammer of Dawn)

 

VII. EXECUTIONS

 

-New chainsaw animation from the back going from taint to throat. Dubbed 'ChainSAWdomy'

-Longshots rifle butt gets slammed down on your victims skull

-CoG execution will punch the enemy to death

-Locust execution will rip off a CoGs arm and beat him to death with it

-Damaged players will bleed on the ground as they move and leave a blood trail

-Pressing A repeatedly while downed allows you to crawl away from danger

-Destructible cover

-The cover system has been refined, players' guns and bodies sit tighter to cover making it harder for your enemies to get an attacking angle

-Martyrdom is a new feature. If you are holding a frag while downed, press RT as the enemy is about to execute you to blow yourself up aswell as your enemy

-Pressing RT while downed allows you to raise your right hand to signal your team-mates in order for them to aid you

Herregud matchmakingmøkk...

 

Superskuffa..

 

 

De har heldigvis beholdt MP-achievements, så nå håper jeg alle achievementshorene gråter og whiner og sier hvor lite skill det er i det, mens det er dritmye skills i å ta singleplayer på INSANE!!!!+1+1!12 og finne TJUE tags.

[E-wok]

-Will include matchmaking

Håper så sinnsykt det blir mulighet for egne parties med servere tillegg til MM. Kan virke som de mener at MM kommer i tillegg til det gamle perfekte systemet - og hvis det stemmer er alt perfekt.

 

*krysser saga* hehehe heheee............

[Lakus]

-Altered MP achievements. "If you're going for headshots, you get one headshot that counts and any other headshots won't count towards your Achievement, so players don't just play to get headshots the entire round just to get Achievements."

Hva betyr egentlig dette? Bare en kill per runde vil gå mot Achievementen?

Hvis det er sånn det er så er jo det bare BULL!

[E-wok]

Ser sånn ut, ja. Rimelig patetisk opplegg bare for å unngå at folk går etter headshots hele tiden for å få achievementen.

[boffeeen]

Sålenge de pissidiotene som kaller seg achievementvitere blir sure pga mpachievements, så gir jeg faen.

[Laland]

-Two people can chainsaw one person

 

Noen som blir med i et party engang for å praktisere dette til de grader?

[boffeeen]

Kan vi ikke heller ta det i matchmaking a? Litt lettere liksom, istedetfor å finne 2 andre som vil spille:P:P

[Laland]

Da sier vi det.

[iStephano]

Sålenge de pissidiotene som kaller seg achievementvitere blir sure pga mpachievements, så gir jeg faen.

 

Haha er med på den, da kan vi si at Lakus er prøvekaninen i starten
