Horde Command is completely killed for me by not being in the standard matchmaking hoppers. I guess it's to avoid splitting the community, but they could do it Call of Duty style where they're in the playlists, but only will trigger if everyone in the room has 'em?

Not the best solution since they'll come up less often in MP than way than the standard maps, but beats a dedicated DLC playlist that'll split the playerbase, or this, which just makes it kinda useless.

RAAM's Shadow is far more interesting, I like the idea of what they're trying to present but I'm not sure if I'll grab it right away or what.

That's a pretty big kick in the junk. Especially since now with the free update you'll be able to actually PLAY these maps in matchmaking. Which makes the Horde thing even more useless, I imagine?

Very lame.

And even more info regarding Gears 3.

Title Update 2 for Gears of War 3 went live last night, bringing with it a range of fixes and additions, including a new Spectator Mode option for gaming leagues, with 5v5 matches now being 4v4 with an optional spot on each team for a spectator.

Then there's easier medals, which should help towards earning that elusive 'Seriously 3.0' achievement. Both the Vengeful and Leader medals are now easier to get hold of, as are the Roadie Comet and Regen Enemies mutators. There are also tweaks to the user interface, such as a visual indicator showing where the ring is going to be next during the last 10 points in King of the Hill, and an option to switch of the HUD altogether for machinima and video creators.

And finally, there are exploit fixes, bug fixes for progression issues and profile freezing, as well as host migration for Horde mode that will enable you to continue from the same wave you were on. Here's the complete list of changes that Title Update 2 has added, via the Epic Community site:

Improvements

A spectator mode option has been added to private versus matches for broadcasting by gaming leagues.
One player on each team will be able to choose spectator mode during match set up.
The matches will be 4v4 with two spectators
The Leader and Vengeful medals are now easier to acquire.
The mutators Roadie Comet and Regen Enemies are now easier to acquire.
Added an option to disable the HUD during multiplayer games for machinima and video creators
Added a visual indicator of the next ring’s location during the last 10 ring points in KOTH.

Exploit Fixes

The Onyx Field Engineer medal can no longer be prestiged.
In Capture the Leader, the overhead Beams on DryDock are no longer accessible.
While affected by the Smoke Grenade stun, players will no longer be able to take hostages, pick up weapons or revive teammates.

General Fixes

If there is a host migration during Horde, the match will resume at the same wave.
Also during Horde, the Combat Engineer ribbon can now be achieved once per wave instead of once per game.
The Ranked Disconnect stat will no longer increase when quitting a standard Horde or Beast game.
The cringe from the Mortar will no longer cause players to drop their primary weapon.
The Hail Mary ribbon is now correctly awarded for long distance Boomshot headshots.
Maps will no longer be immediately repeated when choosing random map selection.
If the host pauses during a private versus match the game will continue for other players.
The game will still pause in the Campaign, Beast and Horde.
Potential fix for the rare lost progress issue.
Potential fix for the rare profile freezing issue.
Beast leaderboard screen no longer refreshes while sending challenges

Didn't know it was humanely possible to score a Boomshot Headshot, but whatevs.

Also laughing forever at "the price of free" comment.

Laughing forever.

I was unaware that something you paid for was free.

Other industries need their marketing departments to catch up.

"Just give us 20 grand for no reason and we'll give you this FREE CAR."

I will sell millions of Mazdas

I'd read about a custom skin pack that was to be awarded to players who had already completed, or need to complete, the campaign on Insane. Didn't realize that was the tie-in. A month of mystery down the drain, I guess.

I still need to finish campaign (hardest difficulty if possible) so count me in as interested.

I haven't played Gears for a bit. I'd be down for campaign running. The problem is, I'll be really busy for the next couple of weeks with holiday stuff, so I'm not sure when I'll be able to sit down to do it.

Well, given the current status of my Live account, I won't be able to even download this DLC until next month at the earliest, but if enough people are still playing it by the time I CAN download it, I'm game.

THE way to do campaign on Insane is Arcade, though. The respawns will save you so much frustration. Don't bother doing it through the normal mode.

I can help out. It's been a while, wouldn't mind playing again.

For two weeks after the 17th, multiplayer will be filled with nothing but Recruit Claytons and Savage Marauders, sweet.
