I played Gears at my friends house, the game is fun really, makes me want to buy a 360. My only problem is that the multiplayer mode doesn't look all that fun.

Did you actually try the multiplayer mode instead of just 'look' at it?

I assure you its good fun.

My gamertag is also "randomwab". I'm on regularly though so if you're ever making a match with some spaces, send me an invite.

Here's a wealth of info of the two new FREE maps coming out Wendsday Jan 10th called Raven Down and Old Bones.

Here's a list of bug fixes that'll be coming in the patch tomorrow Tuesday 9th. http://gearsforums.epicgames.com/sho...54&postcount=1

Fucking shit. Why does my Xbox have to breakdown now. I wont get it back for another week or so. I want maps now damnit.

What do you guys think of the new maps. I like the old bones map beacuse it is a lot bigger and open. I dont like the raven down map because its to small and teams spawn right on top of eachother.

Hey for FREE I'll take anything... almost, lol.

I like both of the new maps. Raven Down offers a nice change of pace from the other maps, and is probably the most 1v1 split-screen friendly map of the bunch. There really should have been some Hammerbursts and Pistols put around the map though, as those weapons get too little usage as it is.

Old Bones is a bit like Gridlock, while taking the early split path of Mausoleum. It's definitely the better of the two maps overall, and offers lots of opportunity to flank with the statue in the middle obscuring the view of the main battlefield.

I can't understand why people in other forums are complaining so much. These maps and the patch were absolutely free, very few console games even get new maps to begin with.

I don't like the running shooting glitch =\

Quoted for truth. If people would just be happy with it, im sure Epic would be more than happy to send more content down the pipeline in the future.

I havent tried the new maps yet btw.

Hi guys my gamertag is xroc88, (in my sig also)

LOOK OUT FO ME!!

You guys should make a smiley of the crimson omen.

Me, I personally like Old Bones over Raven Down. it's just that Old Bones matches my taste for what I like in Mulitplayer maps. Raven Down is kind of meh for me because it's too small for a 4 vs 4 game. I can see it at the most being a 2 vs 2. But when it starts to go on to 3 vs 3 or 4 vs 4, it's chaotic.

Why the fuck hasn't this been done yet? Im gonna rock this when I get off work.

It's hilarious since it's over so fast. That's what makes it so different from all the others and a fresh change of pace.

Besides, it's over in 10 seconds anyway, so even when it's in the rotation it doesn't last long.

The only two maps I dislike are escalation and rooftops, though. Horrid maps.

Escalation is one of my best maps when the weapons haven't been touched. However I agree that rooftops is a horrible map. I also dislike Gridlock, it's way too open for any hide & seek gameplay.

I beat the game recently, it's a great game altho it was too short. I had a hard time beating General RAAM, cause I didnt know head shots would work better with him plus I suck at sniping so yea. I go check some video on youtube.com on how to beat him, and wow they make it seem like it's so easy when the person recording the fight was in a damn co-op mode with his buddy helping him out...Wow.

Rooftops and Gridlock are two of my favorites. :p

My favorite maps are

Mansion ( anything can happen on this map )
Gridlock ( I think everyone loves this map )
Clocktower ( boom and Sniper spawns are in legendary locations and it is a blast always to play this map )

My least favorite maps are

Canals ( Sniper haven and it is a bitch to get anywhere without getting shot with a sniper )
Mauloseum ( Just plain fucking boring ).

Hands down the best map in the game. Quick and in your face matches. I could almost play this map exclusively. It even makes for a good one on one map if your playing with a guy who enjoys a shoot out.

Ditto. I agree. Mansion is an exciting map and anything can happen on that map. The only thing I hate is when people start glitching on this map. I was playing this one game in which my teammate decided he wanted to glitch rather than just play and help out. I was getting pissed off. I hope that I never play with that person again. I forgot what the gamertag of that person was though. Anyway, other than that, Mansion is a fun map to play on.;)

My brother and I just got this game and have been practicing online a bit recently. My tag's Poojums (don't ask) if anyone wants to play just send a message or keep an eye out ^^

Anyone try out the new game mode Annex? It came out yesterday but I haven't gotten the chance to play it yet. If anyone wants to play lemme know ^^
