  • Impressions of GEOW 2 from an MLG guy who played it at PAX (doesn't look good) .

Basically, this is what he noticed:

-Game does not run as smooth as GoW 1 and gets very choppy at times especially when cars blow up (you also get stuck on the debris of the car explosion a lot).

-Sniper does not active down anymore (most knew this but thought I would just confirm it again)

-You pretty much have to L trigger now when you shotgun. If you blind fire with it....it does little to no damage - even if you are point blank. Only time you can really no scope with the shotgun is if you do the melee and then shoot.

-Moving from walls to the roadie run is much faster with way less animation time.

-The shotgun seems a little weaker and it is way less accurate (especially considering this was a 5v5 lan)

-In re spawn game modes there is a 3-5 second invulnerability time when you spawn

-The biggest thing I noticed is the melee and then shotgun combo is not only still in the game...but it is easier than ever. If you get close to someone and can pull a melee off it is pretty much a guaranteed kill now.

-When someone chainsaws and they get shot, it no longer stuns them. So basically, you have to down the guy before he chainsaws you.

-You can now kill people during animations (chainsaw, special executions, ect.)

-The lancer is just as weak as it is in GoW 1.

-When you shoot at someone roadie running at you it does slow them down but it isn't to a point that it ruins the game and is not that noticeable.

-I played one of the new levels (no idea the name) and it was pretty big and not fun at all (and this was 5v5)

-When you torque bow someone, a big puff of smoke appears around them to let you know you hit them.

-Boom shot shoots VERY slow now but does way more damage

-Sniper sounds so weak right now it honestly sounds like you aren't even shooting it.

-The pistol seems a little weaker, not to mention you can't shoot it quite as fast (I have no idea why)

Overall, the game is still pretty fun but not nearly as good as GoW 1. It took about an hour of playtime before I could get over the choppy game play and lack of of skill, but there is no way it will be as competitive as GoW 1; however, it will still be a competitive game.

Sounds good, can't wait to play it

"A person needs new experiences. They jar something deep inside, allowing you to grow. Without them, it sleeps- seldom to awaken. The sleeper must awaken."

kind of a bummer. I don't have a 360 but I did enjoy the first gears of war. I was a little worried that they did not do a whole lot of upgrading with the game compared to what others will do for sequels.

i thought that when a man gets shot and he is slowed down is a great idea it is more life like i hate in cod when a guy runs at you taking 2-3 bullets in the leg and just keeps truckin
