So they should screw over the people that prefer the shotgun over the other weapons? (why does your play style and weapon choice supersede that off the people that love the shotgun?) It's not fair to us shotgun lovers because you guys want to walk around chainsawing or whatever you do. I say let us choose how we want to play, and let us have our pre-equipped shotgun. Now if the double barrel is stronger than the current one, then they should treat it as a power weapon and give you a regular Gnasher shotgun. That I will agree with, IF that's where you're going with this. And who's to say that the shotgun isn't just revamped and it's actually the same, damage wise?
Perfectly said. Just because some people dont like using the shotgun doesnt mean the whole game should be changed because then people from the opposite view would complain too. Just deal with it the way it is
Taking the shotgun out of Gears would be a huge mistake. What would you do? Give everyone a lancer? I can tell you exactly what the people who use shotgun would do. CHAINSAW! People complain about chainsaw and then the same people go and complain about the shotgun. What gun are people supposed to use up-close? Do these people want it to be all lancer or hammerburst? Then you would see so many stalemates just because people know that if they try to move up they will just get downed right away. I kind of like the way Gears 2 is set up over the first one. On the first one it was all about rushing with the shotgun. It couldn't be stopped. But in Gears 2 with stopping power added on makes it so its not all based on the rush. I just like that its not the same rush every time. People can pull out their long/mid range weapons to counter the rush. Instead of countering a rush with a different rush like on the first one.
I do agree with the double barrel being a pick up though. All these little factors will just add new twists and turns in multiplayer games, helping it stay fresh and exciting all the time.
At one point i always had 100 friends. I narrowed down my friends list to around 40 just because i had a bunch of people i never played with. Some of the ones that are still on there i never play with but used to play with them all the time so i dont wanna delete them(not yet at least)
The excessive damage of the mortar i feel is ok because you walk super slow with it and it takes a bit to drop them too. So often you could down someone using a mortar quite quickly. The frags however need to be toned downa bit. The diameter that they kill you is huge, frag tagging is ok because it makes people have to think twice before ripping around the corner. Which slows people down. Maybe they should consider only letting each player tag one frag rather then two just to eliminate people camping in spawn or something of that sort.
Match Leaving Penalty
This is a good and bad thing. It will sometimes stop people from leaving the match but if the lag is super bad and you have to leave it starts to become a pain. Also if the host leaves the match people wont get their points. Maybe fix that so people dont get punished when the host leaves(I know that you dont get the penalty but the punishment would be not getting the points that you have scored that match)
Host
As long as the game assigns a goodhost its not that big of a deal, but when people who have wal-mart, or k-mart(whatever you please) connection thats when it gets frustrating
The Chainsaw
This is not that big of a deal, if you dont like the chainsaw stay further back. People say take the chainsaw off the lancer, but i completely disagree. (and no i do not use the chainsaw). the chainsaw is what makes the lancer compareable with the hammerburst. The hammerburst is way more powerful and personally i feel it is a bettergun.
well i say 2 grenades or 2 shots from the boomshot because one wouldnt be enough, if i actually got to climb into the one and only mech suit on the map (which if you look at how gears is, there will only be 1 per map) i better be able to take a little more damage than if i didnt have the suit because what would be the point of having it if it was to easily destroyed, and when the mech suit gets destroyed by the second boomshot, you die with the mech suit.
yeah, the reason i say make it so one blows up the suit but you stay alive is because sometimes its impossible to get nades or a boomer, i just dont want the suit to be the only reason a team wins
and i dont like the idea of a team deathmatch, it could be tossed in but personally i dont know if i would play it. I like gears because if you are down 4-0 you can still come back and win, while in cod or halo if you have a high enough lead you will win almost for sure. Momentum seems to play more of a factor
I agree and better multiplayer would be a great one too.

Could you be more specific.
how about a more consistant multiplayer, no more shooting someone in the back 6 times with a shotgun only to have them turn around and 1 shot kill you with the same shotgun.
also, if the mech suits rumor is true and they are in multiplayer, make it so their not to hard to destroy, maybe 2 grenades or 2 boomshots

Consistency is something that must be added. Its so frustrating when you are just lighting someone up and that happens, its kind of what sent me away from the series but i recently rebought them and they are still great. As for the mech suits, i would make it so that either : A) one grenade/boom/tourque and/or whatever other explosive-like weapons they add should blow off the mech suit(that is if the mech suit is part of the map/weapon setup on the map) B) two kills the person and for the mech suit if it does become part of the multiplayer it shouldnt be a quick pickup like a weapon, they should make it take like 5 seconds to put on where you cant move(like planting a bomb on cod), this is just so its more of a battle for the suit rather then a quick rush tactic these are just ideas of course, im sure what ever cliff b comes up with will be just fine =D
Like the title says I am looking for people to play Gears 2 with. I just got back onto the game and would like some people to play both matchmaking and horde with. I still need some of the horde achievements and would like to get them. I try to be friendly on public matches to randoms and generally am but they are mostly douche bags. Post here, or message me please
