Gamertag - Rdog 11

Call me Rdog, not RdOG or RdOG1507. I made that username when I thought it was cool to use alternating capital and lowercase letters...

Every now and then, I feel like playing it, but I look over and see Halo 4, Black Ops 2, and Madden just lying there.

I like how your sub box is full of science and political videos but your recommendations are full of anime girls kissing each other.

Just Zoid being Zoid ^_^

New Baird prequel looks terrible. Last good Gears was Gears 2.

Gears of War 3 was terrible.

No. The sawed-off and retro was terrible but not the game.

Because god forbid that noob players can roadblock wall bouncing Gnasher humpers.

Not the stupid multiplayer (I hate Gears MM), the campaign. It was boring and I was sick and tired of fighting lambent. Everything was constantly exploding, Dom died, and you spent half the game looking for fuel or spare parts (like in Duke Nukem).

...Gears of War Judgement?

  • 12.06.2012 8:47 PM PDT

"Ideas are bulletproof"

Well, People Can Fly made Painkiller, which was definitely more fun than any of the Gears campaigns, so I think Judgment will turn out well.

Yeah, I like me some Zelda.

I liked Bulletstorm's campaign, so I hope People Can Fly can deliver a solid entry into the series.

I thought they were making a prequel based on Baird...

Why though? Baird was the lamest one out of the bunch. I've owned all the Gear games but I'm not getting this one just because of this. They should've done a prequel on Dom and Marcus.

Dom and Marcus were awful.

Baird and Cole had the most emotion, and Baird had the best personality by far. Dom was just a whiny guy and Marcus sounds like he chain smokes and eats sandpaper for breakfast

Lol I like the way you worded things. You are right but we just have different opinions.

Dom and Marcus are the most generic characters ever, Baird's god complex and Cole Train's random ass remarks make the best team ever, although I don't really like prequels because it's not exciting knowing how everything already ends.
But I'm hoping the multiplayer is a better Gears 3.

So far they've only been highlighting the two new modes: FFA and Overrun.

Overrun is a mash up of Beast Mode and Horde Mode with classes.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

That isn't why I hate it. The retro destroyed everything close up. The sawed-off was just stupid. You can't miss with it up close, it didn't need a direct hit to kill someone. The problem is they weren't map pickups. I am all for new weapons but not weapons that is like spawning with power weapons and are easy to hit anyone with.

Yea! The noob players shouldn't have to get better at a game! They should just be handed crutches to do the work for them!!

Sawed off and Retro should of been map pickups.

If I had my way, Gears would have died at its hideously mediocre first title so we wouldn't have to live through the second and third abominations.

I don't see any other way then a prequel. Unless there was a locust King which would be a bad choice because the locust are like a hive. They could do a trilogy prequel though kind of like Star Wars. Have a Baird and Cole prequel, Dom and Marcus prequel, and all 4 prequel.

The retro destroyed everything close up.

So stay at range where their DPS is ballz aweful and Lancer them to death.

Or flank them, or outdistance them and three piece them with the Gnasher.

The sawed-off was just stupid. You can't miss with it up close, it didn't need a direct hit to kill someone.
Yes the Sawed Off has a huge reticule and if a significant amount and body part of you is within the reticule, you die.

The problem is they weren't map pickups.
The problem is that you write off their flaws and seemingly pretend they are powerful and forged from the breath of God himself.

The Sawed Off has -blam!- for range. It's effective range is literally close enough to punch someone, if they are beyond that you'll do more damage pissing on their boot. It's got the longest active reload, a small active reload, a tiny perfect active reload, and it's only got one bullet in the barrel.

Lastly we have this kills breakdown per weapon.

Sawed Off accounts for a little over a quarter of all kills while the Gnasher accounts for just under half. Retro? 8%.

Sawed off and Retro should of been map pickups.

Just because they have crutches doesn't mean they are walking easily just like everyone else.

Again: Their crutches are extremely limited in terms of range and highly restrictive in everything but their raw power and ease of use.

Equipping the Sawed Off does not grant you God Mode or give you an Ez-Mode to a no death game.
