Posted November 10, 2008 Shorty and I have been playing co-op - probably racked up around six hours so far? We jumped in on Hardcore mode and we've met some seriously annoying moments of almost trial-and-error where the game hasn't been as intuitive as the first one was, but I've appreciated the level design's increased focus on co-op mode. I had a quick run through on casual mode while I was waiting for my tea to cook and it's utterly ridiculous how easy it is. You can effectively run through the levels without stopping, or just stand there with four dudes shotgunning you and take all of them out with a single clip. As for boomers... No fear :P Hoarde mode... man! I've had a couple of goes on single player on normal and hardcore and haven't gotten past wave 6. But then, I've only been playing on avalanche. I think overall the game isn't as tight as the first game. There are too many sections where the areas are too open and there are only a few - if any - enemies. But then we've got 9 chapters to go! So who knows :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 10, 2008 Well, the ending boss wasn't great... and it felt weird that they left the two "vehicle" sections at the end but the sense of speed in the first one was insane. I finished it on Hardcore over the weekend, a lot of death towards the end! >_> IMO, better than the first in some regards, worse in others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 10, 2008 Does anyone else feel like puking up all over their console whenever they read the disgcusting messages from the people who made the game at the end? Makes me fucking sick. "Thanks to my family" what the fuck? Okay, family is important to everyone, but seriously, they didn't help you with fuck all part of this game, and even if they did I COULDN'T GIVE A SHIT. Just it being on my screen makes me want to blow chunks. Also that boss was a piece of piss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 10, 2008 Thing is, these games take herculean effort to make. Support from family must mean a load to these guys. They're welcome to it, really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 10, 2008 Finished Act 2 with charlie today. The end bit of that Act was disgusting in a hilarious way things really picked up this act enjoyed it more than Act 1 can't wait to see what 3 holds! Well im gonna have to cause im working but still should be classic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 10, 2008 BOOOM I enjoyed the ending, but I think that it would have made sense for the game to end as the Gears reached the surface - and that be it. It kinda dragged on as you had to defend the base for a while, THEN go explode a huge (but freaking awesome looking) Brumak thingy! Also, I found continuous amusement in the fact that it was basically 4 guys single handedly taking out an entire Locust army/palace aaaand saving Jacinto.
