LINK

Sheer bliss! :P

Thoughts?

Awesome, I've been wating for them to add this to the game.

what? you can't just put a link to the trailer and count that as confirmation.

but it prob will be in there

Yeah, that wasn't even close to a confirmation. But, as everyone's already guessed, it'll probably be in the game. I assume it's some random QTE or button mashing.

sounds stupid, gonna be real gory though llol.

i really hope the mp doesnt suck this time

Obviously not, but this just came straight from Brian Crescente over at Kotaku and the man isn't known for lies. Expect it for sure.

Expect =/= confirmation

confirmed? It's not confirmed until I have the game in hand, which I will....next....

I've already said too much.

Yes, there will be chainsaw duels. I thought Epic made that clear with the trailer... lol

I guess not...

Lol, sucks if they don't fix the host lag issue with some dedicated servers. Host will win chainsaw battles everytime.GogetaX

That's true. The first GoW still has these issues with extreme host advantage, as I found out a few days ago when I popped in my GoW disc. :P *sigh* I'm praying. :?

So basically, by giving us a link to the trailer, you've stated it's not confirmed, but it's probably going to make it into the game anyways.

Great, thanks.

Read the article, I don't think Brian Crescente would say something jokingly or April fools-esque on something like this. Yes, he can be a jokester, but take the mans word and I'll take the flaming posts I don't care. :P

not really confrimed,but theres a good chance that it will be in the game. Its an good idea on paper but i really need to see how it will work in an online gamelawlessx

Whether its confirmed or not, adding something new to the game is a good thing. I would be eager to see how the mechanics would work if dueling and counter moves will be added to the melee part of combat.

Can't wait to see what else might be added to one of the best games I have ever played. Also glad we don't have to wait that long for the game to come out too.

One name - Cliffy B. That should prove sufficient. ;)

I don't know if I need a chainsaw duel. The thought of losing a duel and geting hacked up sucks!

It could work, even in the multiplayer, what it should work as both players use the chainsaw, and they try to tap the button as fast as they can, if the person with the faster taps, gets the kill.rctyke

I think it should be like the active reload but random times to tap it.

Alot of games have been using this lately. I'll admit that it's getting a little old, but if it compliments GoW 2 in a nice way, I'm all for it. :)

The way I'm hoping is Random QTE (Quick Timer[r] Event). You'll get into a battle, and random buttons (A, X, B, Y) will show up - and fast. The person who gets the most would win... simple enough. This would be easier on my thumb than button mashing, and be more intense than just random AR's.

Of course, this could only work with little-to-no lag...

haha i know the new gears better not have as bad of a host advantage....its brutal

but these chainsaw battles will be in the second game, they better pull it off smoothly

i heard they tried to do that for the first gears, but it created too many problems

Wow. Everyone is basing how gameplay will flow based off a trailer. We don't need to go wild. if you read some of those comments on that link page, it shows a lot of people getting worked up and excited on something that is not confirmed. I do want to see some of those features but lets not get crazy people.Elite_Headshotz

It's called speculation my friend.

True. You could be in a multiplayer game in an epic chainsaw battle when some guy just walks up behind you and shotguns you in the face.

I dont see the point of this post anyways. All you did was post a link to the trailer saying what everyone else is saying.

I have a feeling it will be very close to COD3 when someone tries to hit you with his gun and then you fight over the gun and eventually kill him.

Haha learn to differentiate between a confirmation and a trailer/game announcement. Since you clearly need some clarification, allow me:

Confirmation- Gears of war staff: There will be chainsaw duels in this game.

Preview/Trailer- Guy fights someone with a chainsaw, possibly for dramatic effect, primarily to announce/build hype for new Gears of War game.

Sweet!

great, a crabwalking, chainsaw dueling host is all gears needs..... i wonder, if they do put chainsaw duels in, if it will have the dreaded X factor (host advantage) that the original gears suffered from that made gears unplayable during multiplayer (even when SYSTEM LINKED)

im so not looking forward to gears 2, epic failed miserably with adding a dice roll to the shotgun and not having dedicated servers...(or at least allowing other systems to host like halo 3 to keep lag at a minimum)

It looks stupid...just like Halo 3's Energy Sword clashing...AtomicBaconBits

Are you kidding? Nothing's as stupid as Halo 3's ES clashing (seriously, what were they thinking?)...

I just hope they can pull this off - seeing is how it's bound to be in the game. I'm guessing a third person can't just run up and kill the two people battling it out ... so there'll be invulnerable moments like in the original.
