There have been some really wierd problems with GOW2 tonight. Everyone on both teams is crabwalking and the shotguns are super powerful for me (even when I'm off host) and everyone else. I'm talking 1 down w/ shotty from over 10 feet away. And people are just running like there's no tomorrow over 100mph. This has happened for the last 5 games in a row now and I'm curious as to what is going on?

I'm playing by myself except for the people I'm paired with and I haven't played with any of the same people.

Anyone else notice what's been going on????? It is really annoying...........

I don't understand how this could be a personal problem....haha, well maybe, but I'm cereal!

It's not just me, whoever I play with notices the same things going on.

I haven't seen it until tonight and I've been playing GOW2 for months...

It hasn't happened for the last 3-4 rounds now anyways, but I also got a good party together and we've been getting host, so maybe it won't happen anymore.

This is off topic, and I apologize, but I thought instead of making a new thread, I would just slam it in here... How do you know when your host in Gears? Is there a tell tale sign? Or is it just the feeling after a few rounds...

On a related note, TC, no idea why it's happening. Keep trying, and I'm sure you'll get a proper game.

NOD, there are a few ways to tell if you're host. Shooting your gun against a wall, while the easiest way, isn't always the best. One sure-fire way to tell is once the round is over, and you still have control of your character -- press "B" with your shotgun (or any melee-able weapon) out. If you can melee, you are not host. If you cannot, you are. Works everytime.

Well, feel free to check out my games from last night. I think I lost3 out of 12 or something like that. I was also averaging 30 or 40 kills in Annex with around 10-15 deaths.

Instead of being a d*ck you could at least read what I've written and notice that I wasn't the only one feeling the affects of what was going on. Others were complaining as well. I think I also said that even though everyone else's shotty was overpowered, mine was overpowered too. Thus I was able to do very well even considering the crab walking and super shotties.
