I want the game built from the ground up for COOP, since that's really the only reason Gears is worth playing. Single player sucks, online sucks, Coop is awesome.

More focus on player cooperation would be great. Maybe a BiA style suppresion thing so you can suppress/flank and leapfrog properly.

I don't understand what GEARS did that made it so good? i thought the gameplay was arcadey, repetitive and boring.

more blood

not only more water in show

maybe blood water

i hope that it is good unlike the first one.

also, does not uses windows live

I hope they balance weapons. Every single online game went like this:

A. Equip Shotgun

B. Run to Sniper

C. Get Sniper (skip to step F)

D. Blast everything with Shotgun

E. Die

F. Run away and snipe

I want gameplay that doesnt get stale after the first hour, and the singleplayer to extend past 5 hours.

I want better online if/when it gets ported over....Im talking 10vs10 at the minimum, CTF, TDM, KotH, etc.

I also want a better story and less stupid one liners.

Yeah, Gears was not that good a game. Sad when it is considered one of the 360's best.

ya im truly baffled by all the acclaim it gets. like i said before, i think its simply cuz it was a decent game in a dry spell for 360 shooters.

of course, I dont understand the acclaim behind starcraft so take my criticism for what its worth

btw bow to leper messiah!!!

The firefights are good but they didnt break up the action very well. The berserker wasnt fun and the vehicle part felt tacked on.

360 version of Graw did a much better job with 3rd person cover and shoot gameplay. Pacing was much better. Too bad they took the cover mechanic out of mp.

then I ask again, how the hell did gears get so much hype, sales and attention, even awards? total lunacy. It was a short game with absolutely no stroy, very repetitive and arcadey unrealistic gameplay and cheesy one liners. I just don't understand, maybe it is because I am a PC gamer and that is what console gamers like, but really, your system is in trouble if gears is its killer app.

+ 1. I played through Gears 4 times or something like that. 3 of them was in coop mode via Live or in split screen.

One other thing that is sorely lacking is a story. There is none. The dialog can be a little more intelligent too. Cliff B said he wanted to appeal to a Killswitch engage-type of audience in that MTV interview. Well, less mallcore, more Opeth next time, Cliffy...

Its more realistic than most shooters. Soldiers in real life dont strafe around running and gunning like you see in most shooters.

Great marketing, great graphics. It was the consoles Doom 3. A mediocre game with great graphics and media hype. Gears at least had decent mp.

More realistic the most shooters? What ones? Cod4? Nope. crysis? Nope. Stalker? Nope, What ones? Gears is about as unrealistic and arcadey as it gets. Bad one liners, excessinve amount of gore just for gore sake, terible story, enemies that take 50 bullets in the head to bring down. After playing crysis , gears really seems bad. That game requires some tactice, thinking and for u to asssess the situation. Obviously u have not played many shooters. Sticking your head out, getting shot and not moving is as good as Gears Ai gets.

COD 4 has realistic shootouts. AI takes cover realistically and if the player uses lean out shots it is very realistic. COD 4 online is totally unrealistic. Plays like a slomo UT. In Gears mp, players actually use the cover system.

Crysis is very realistic. Carrying the enemy by the throat is taught in basic training. :DChallenging and realistic arent the same thing.

Stalker? Real soldiers dont strafe and shoot like that.

Both Stalker and Crysis ai has a tougher time taking cover due to the sandbox levels.

COD4 is the only 1 that closely resembles a real firefight since the ai is easier to program in a linear level. I said most shooters not all anyway. I like those 3 games better than gears but the fact remains that the combat plays out similar to real life.

I've played as many if not more shooters than you.

Whats funny is the shooter with the best and most realistic firefights is a PS3 exclusive.

I'm hoping i can actually play it this time, since i couldn't even get past the splash screen without crashing to desktop in Gears of War. ;)

One of the reasons why Starcraft was so great, was because it was the first game to feature 3 entirely different races with completely different styles of play, while maintaining what many consider to be a _perfect_ balance.

I though the first Gears was a masterpiece.The Chainsaw kills were one of the most satisfying moments I've had in a game.HOWEVER,what i can say is that the story wasn't really interesting...So i'd like to see and improved story in the second one,and also more interesting changes with the chainsaw,like spceial kills,or even a some sort of chainsaw duels,like they showed in the trailer.That....would be f*ckin' awsome...
