Theres casual, normal, hardcore, insane. I did normal to beat it the first time. I'm going to do Hardcore next. Although I beat the game with someone who played hardcore. Is there a big leap from normal to hardcore?
there certainly was in Gears 1. I haven't tried it on gears 2 yet. I remember struggling to get out of the court yard in the beginning of gears 1 on hardcore. You just do a lot less damage and take a bit more. You have to be a lot more tactical with your approach.
the first thing I did after I got home with the game is play Horde mode with 4 guys from work for about 5 hours. We finally got though all 50 waves at like 3 in the morning. Now playing on hardcore seems easy.
yah hardcore hasn't been that tough for me so far. I think I'm about 75% through it We need more people from this site on at the same time to get a party together for some horde action. Posted via Mobile Device
I hope your getting a discount. I'll be on around 5. This game so ****ing fun it's ridiculous. The story in campaign mode is awesome as well. Posted via Mobile Device
just FYI, I haven't been ignoring your invites, on the weekends I'm not sure when my wife will pop in the living room, and when she does I have to get off so I didn't want to leave anyone hanging. She is working tonight, though, so I'll be on most of the night.
online matchmaking is the worst ever on this game. Only thing they improved was being able to host a party. I miss being able to create a public room and stay in it on maps that I like with game types that I like, this voting crap is major lame. ahhhhhhhhhhh
You have the option to allow votes or have the host decide what maps/modes to play. It's almost exactly like COD4. The only problem is it takes forever to find matches, like there are not enough servers set up. Sorry I wasn't on much last night, I forgot the wife and I had plans. I'll be on all night tonight, and since I beat it last night on hardcore I'm down for any game mode. Posted via Mobile Device
Taking forever to find matches is what plagued the COD4 Launch and the Halo3 beta. I'm sure in the coming weeks they'll patch and fix it.
Anyone up for Horde Mode tonight? Be on around 8pm EST. Looking for 2-3more. Gamertag is canemutiny31.
I'd love to play horde mode to completion, but I can only dedicate and hour maybe an hour and a half to gears in a night.
Alright guys - ill be requesting those of you who I dont already have on my list - lets try and bust some grubs for and hour or so. See you guys on. I'm at work so I can't see any gamertag info.
I played Hardcore in G1 and it was tough. However G1 only had 3 levels of difficulty. Just played Hardcore for a a few hours inG2 and isn't much harder then normal tbh. The guy I played with was doing Insane. Wednesday night (8 ish) I'll be on if anyone wants to do Horde or whatever. I'll be playing it thursday too, then I'm shipping it back to Gamefly so I can get left 4 dead.
Hey, I'm on and looking to do the Horde (tonight, every coming night) with my brothers account. Legothug. Got nothing going on for awhile, so might as well dive in with my brethern.
No worries. I got on late, and played until 6........being unemployed tends to do that to ya. I'll be on tonight or tomorrow.
If anyone wants to play some horde tonight, I am down. I will try and add a few of you guys on here. My GT is - CorpsMosBlunteD
