Gears Of War
    #14289430 - 04/14/11 11:09 AM (12 years, 9 months ago)

i've always been more into call of duty.  i dominate in cod.  i display domination in gears comparatively, but there is competition that competes and beats me.  it is not unusual.  lately, i've been real into gears and not playing much call of duty.  blacks ops is good, i think they did a good job overall, i'm sort of just feeling gears gameplay more right now.  the 3rd perspective covering system, annex...all so fun.  you know?

anyone here eager for the beta in a few days? gears 3.  i thought it was going to last until the full release happened at the end of september, but it is only a 2-3 week beta.  :mad2:

i haven't been following it too closely, the videos and update reports for gears 3.  anything interesting, above and beyond gears 2, that you've heard?  the maps for the beta look great.

something they really need to fix is the AI overall accuracy, which is always perfect.  side stepping, hip firing, lancer wielding AI.  ridiculous in too many ways.  i actually prefer no AI, like how it used to be, just uneven teams...except allow the option to join during match, like it is now.

and obviously host advantage needs excessive tweaking.  they claim designated servers, so hopefully lag and host woes are over.

I've been thinking of getting gears 2 soon. When I first tried it, I didn't know what I was doing (not familiar with xbox)

I'm waiting for my gears 3 beta as well.

Gears of war 1 was my Gr.10 nightlife almost every night for a year solid, I was a beast at that game. I got harressed for being a supposed hacker so often that I changed my tag to Gears Hacker for a while, let me pick up the sniper and heads started popping left and right I was a literal ninja with that shit my whole team would be out and I would single handly wipe out the other team without ever getting spotted. Man I wish I had that game again.

you should plan to pick up the new one!  if you don't have your xbox anymore, you can get one pretty cheap nowadays.  we'll pop heads together

naahhh.  battlefield is a small time fad.  it has it's place, but it doesn't rank with gears and cod. 

see, this gears beta begins on monday, for those who bought the bulletstorm epic edition game.  the beta for the rest of us begins the following monday.  now, see, i really wanna play gears 3 this monday and have that extra week of the beta.  i'm thinking i'll get the code and rent bulletstorm, because you need the bulletstorm disc to play.  hmm.  i wonder if using that code will override the ability to use the preorder code.  if so, then i'd have to continually have the rented bulletstorm disc to play the rest of the beta.  hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

i gots me thinking.  see?  :awesomenod:

Battlefield is far superior to COD in terms of being an FPS (I leave out Gears cos it's 3person and different to the other two). Battlefield has huge maps which still retain opportunities for intense, close quarters combat, large scale vehicle battles, more tactical and realistic fighting, dedicated servers thus zero hacking, better community. I could go on.

Cod has more than had it's day. The COD series hasn't changed at all since Call of Duty 4. The biggest change in Black Ops was the points currency system, which was shite. The only good thing about COD is the class customisation. Although BF does have this to a lesser extent, in BF you are required by the class system to actually play tactically - medics providing health support etc, whereas in COD you can just run around stabbing people with knives and come out on top.

Don't get me wrong, I liked COD, but I've recently realsied that Battlefield has it beat.

Hell no I'm not excited. It's going to blow. Just like Gears 2 did. They fucked over the Live gameplay on it.

I spent years getting drunk and destroying people on GOW 1. It's the 2nd best game ever made (after Ocarina of time.)

Gears of War fuckin shreds man. It has the sickest graphics to. I can't figure out why game creators can't make solid games like gears. Do they use a really expensive engine to make it (or whatever they use, I don't know anything about game designing) The graphics and movement are just dope as fuck. I'll stand by Gears 1 till the day I die. Maybe I should get a COG tag tattoo...

i hear ya man.  i was into battlefield for quite awhile, leaving cod at the way side.  i've stuck around since the original modern warfare though.  i haven't gone back to battlefield.  everything you mentioned is quite true, but there are also favorable qualities with cod that go above and beyond battlefield.

while battlefield is more realistic and tactile, i love the fast paced intensity and relentless action of call of duty.  i like smaller maps, not tiny like some, but smaller than the battlefield maps.  i'm also not big on tanks rushing in and blowing apart spawn points and objective placement centers.  the gun firing/fighting with cod is more arcadish and i do like it a bit more.  the killstreaks are also a cool edition.  sniping also, in my opinion, works and feels nicer with call of duty, although black ops really fucked this up.  thankfully, i'm not a die hard sniper. 

personally, i think black ops improved many areas in the series.  the point and currency system is a joke though.  the core gameplay was polished and the overall balance was tweaked.  i also really like treyarch maps, over infinity wards.

I reckon the maps are really crappy in Black Ops for some reasons. They just aren't as memorable as in MW2. And yeah, the sniping sucks balls in it.

Gears of war is awesome. The chainsaw gun is the shit. :awesome: Its been a while since I've played it though, I'll have to put it in for a little bit later today.

I can't wait for Gears of War 3! What's up with the beta? How do you get it/ play it???

I was way more into Halo 3 anyway...and let's be real, Halo 3 > COD > Battlefield> GOW in terms of online multiplayer.

Im excited for gears 3, I LOVE the solo campaign

I think its way better then battlefield in its on ways. There way to different to actual compare to one another, I dont find unreal 3 all that great either but your the type of cat whos got a unique taste in what he does so what it really boils down to is personal preference.

Well first off. I care about multiplayer because I'm not ten years old anymore and campaigns are fuckin boring. When you have Live there is no point in playing the campaign. Fighting A.I (or whatever the term is) video game designed players is fuckin boring and lame. No challenge. Then you do "insane" mode or whatever it is and all that does is make the enemies bullets stronger (gay). Anyone with a brain can figure out that if you can play live, why would you waste time fighting drones ???

Maybe it's because im not a gamer so I don't waste time with it unless it's INTERACTIVE with other REAL people on the other side that I happen to be mirkin.

Secondly. Halo ???? ahah. that game is for children. Lame as fuck. Halo one's campaign is alright. The rest blow. You can only make the same game so many times and expect it to be fun ya know ? sticking in a turret gun just doesn't cut it.

The only reason I would even consider playing gears 2 again is for the Horde game. Horde is pretty sweet.

Single player games are strictly for gamers. Straight up.

I changed my mind. Fuck all games that aren't Live.

Oh yeah. And everyone "cool" knows that nowadays games are nothing but live. And any games that aren't live don't do very well and don't sell shit. COD, BATTlefield, Gears, are all games that marketed as a LIVE game. thats not even my opinion. That's where gaming is moving to... in case you haven't noticed.

Campaigns are a one time thing. You saying "who the fuck cares about multiplayer"... well I think  A LOT of people do. In fact, everyone I know who plays, plays live. I'm glad you don't. You probably aren't cut out for competitive games.

Dude, Halo has had the best multiplayer ever since Halo 1. Its the most competitive, without a doubt. GOW is pretty fun too, and now that Halo Reach pretty much sucks, GOW3 is probably going to be my new game to play.

dude wtf are you talking about. I agree that the Halo campaigns were a little weak, but Halo 3 was BY FAR the most SKILLED online shooter out there. I'm sorry but unless you were a 48+ in Halo 3 then you don't know what I'm talking about. There was SO MUCH skill involved in Halo 3, why do you think MLG focused mainly on Halo? Because it was the best online multiplayer FPS to be released to date. End of story.

Also if the ONLY reason you buy a video game is for the online multiplayer then you're missing out. Single player can be really fun if you allow yourself to be sucked into the story. I love playing single player, who cares if the AI isn't super smart? They pose enough of a challenge to make the game interesting the whole way through, and I play single player for the story.
Sorry you think you're too cool to play single player :shrug:

Campaigns are NOT a 1 time thing. I can name plenty of games that I have beat 2, 3, even 4 times. "and everyone "cool" knows that nowadays games are nothing but live". Dude get a fuckin grip, not everyone plays video games JUST for the online. I agree it is a big factor in many games, but SOME games are incredible and fun that don't have ANY online multiplayer.

Also by you saying that Halo 3 was lame as fuck just proves to me that you are incredibly unskilled. I'm sorry but COD requires VERY LITTLE skill compared to Halo 3. In COD all you have to do is see the other person before they see you and they're dead. In halo I could be 1 shot and kill a dude with full shield by being more skilled. That doesn't happen in COD.

Anthony knows exactly what I'm talking about. I was a 47 in MLG in H3 and it was by far, the most competitive shooter at the time. H1 and H2 are still much more competitive than H3 though.

Gears of War 1 was extremely competitive as well from what I hear but I never played it much. And COD does take quite abit of skill to play competitively, yet nowhere near the skill it takes in Halo.

There are plenty of fun single player games as well, look at games like Borderlands, Fallout, or Fable. Hell, they are all fun.

thanks man. Seriously, I only got to a 45 in MLG cause I played by myself, and you know how hard it was to rank up in Halo 3.....fuck, if you got a team that didn't have mics you were gonna lose.

Halo 3 was by far the greatest FPS out there, the most skilled by FAR.

I agree COD is a skilled game, and I got pretty good at COD, but nothing compared to halo 3. The competition that I found in Halo 3 was unlike any other game I've ever played.

I think halo 3 was the most rounded halo there was. The pistol in halo 1 was a little ridiculous, and 3 just improved on every aspect where 2 failed. Reach was definitely a step in the wrong direction IMO, but I've played enough online FPS. I'm more into adventure games like Legend of Zelda, Final Fantasy, or fighters like Tekken or Street fighter now, but I have probably logged in more hours to Halo 3 than any other game, ever, at least 200+ hrs

Halo one's campaign is alright.



:gayvirgin:

I've easily had more fun playing single player games than multiplayer. It's not always about the actual challenge, it's getting stuck into a deep, engrossing story - Bioshock - or fully immersing yourself into another world - Elder Scrolls, Fallout, GTA. You're just missing out on a WHOLE lot if you only play multiplayer games.

I didn't really play Halo a lot, but I think it does take more skill than COD. On COD, I can easily win a match and have the highest score, by literally running around knifing people. Or maybe that just says that I'm fuckin skilled at COD.

Hardly. So games like Fable, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Fallout, Oblivion, Uncharted, Mario, Zelda, etc all 'don't sell shit'?
