Anyone interested in hammering this over the weekend?

Quote:

Last week, Epic Games executive producer Rod Fergusson made a tempting offer to Gearheads everywhere: The more followers he gained on Twitter, the more XP players would earn in Gears of War 2 multiplayer the weekend of Comic-Con. The results are in, and you guys did us proud—over 11,000 followers, which means an unprecedented 20 times the standard experience scores across all multiplayer modes! If that’s not enough, we’re shaking things up with a Boomer family reunion stampeding through every wave of Horde, plus some special guests on every 10th wave! The event kicks off July 22 at 12:30 PM EST and lasts through July 25 at 8:00 PM EST. Go boost your rank and enjoy the fruits of your labor with some Gears 2 mayhem.

Ooh, i'd be up for this if you chaps would allow an outsider! When did you have in mind?

Dimrill · **Posted:** Wed Jul 21, 2010 17:15

That's not a whisper.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Wed Jul 21, 2010 17:16

Whenever there are >=2 of us online, I suppose.

Is that the same Myp who repeatedly turned down or ignored invites to the game for nearly a year, complained that it was never played, then suddenly decided to start playing it again? That Myp?

That sounds a pretty daft thing to do. So probably the same one, yes.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Thu Jul 22, 2010 20:51

He's a daft cunt.

Wullie · **Joined:** 27th Jun, 2008 **Posts:** 6183

I will be on by half past(ish).

TheAlbin0Kid · **Posted:** Thu Jul 22, 2010 21:18

Am on already with a friend; Dimrill and Dave obviously want to play their own private game though.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Thu Jul 22, 2010 21:52

I'll be aboot at 11ish.

You were always too busy playing Leisure Suit Larry. I didn't want to disturb your games of new maps as you said you were incredibly bored with the shipped ones. I started playing again as soon as I bought the (heavily discounted) DLC pack.

Well within minutes we had An Wullie and an Vision too. So we were >5. And you looked so cosy.

TheVision · **Posted:** Fri Jul 23, 2010 8:51

Nice little game last night.. Sorry I didn't chat but the missus insisted on talking to me throughout.

Anyway, with those bonus XP points I've no doubt I'll be on as much as possible this weekend!

Zardoz · **Posted:** Fri Jul 23, 2010 9:06

Muchos funos!

Cheers for the game last night, I'll try to be around as much as possible over the weekend (11.00pm onwards each night as usual, probably. At a pinch

)

I am a mong. Need to remember to start barbecuing bloodmounts tonight since we're getting loads of them at the end & a ton of flamecunts :facepalm:

Oh yeah...

Look at Daves LAVA GUN!!!11111111

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Fri Jul 23, 2010 12:27

My lava gun is awesome.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Fri Jul 23, 2010 12:28

I told you. It also means that only my Resident Evil 5 Ltd Ed 360 has an awesome filter.

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Fri Jul 23, 2010 12:29

It was powered by my awesome.

Wait until we tattoo the hairs back on.

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Fri Jul 23, 2010 12:52

Also, the idea that people have hairy arseholes.

That's really not a nice thought. How do you cope?

Wipe with one of these.

I find that picture very disturbing. Probably because £299.99 is a fucking RIP OFF.

And rip them off it surely would!

Questions, questions, so many questions...
1) Am i likely to need the map packs (sorry not played for ages...)
2) It says my NAT is strict - is this a GOW 2 'thing' as i don't seem to have a problem with any other games.?
3) Looking at, i havent finished the story in co-op, so if anyone fancies that at some point....

That picture is disturbing. It shows the wheel turning backwards whilst the operator is clearly pedaling forwards.

It's alright - there's just an idle gear hidden behind the main one. That's what the third cog is for.

It's not limited to GoW2, unless it uses unusual ports you haven't got open. It may mean connection problems to certain other people.

On the NAT thing, is there an idiots guide to resolve? I use a Netgear router?

Thanks! I ran through that and it now lets me choose social, but still says i have connection issues. It's an improvement mind! Just downloading the map pack and i'll give it a go...
