Gahh. That's stupid when from the forum index all it says is Gears of War 2... And not the subject description.. So I click it and scroll down not noticing and I get tai's death spoiled.

God damn it.

Also I only played campaign once like a month+ ago and never again, don't know why.

Oh Detox, there is s subject discription ;D

That is a really good question.

Maybe they're different types of emulsion or maybe the Corpser isn't a reliable lambent host. It could have in the prcess of become infected but was to weak from being shot in the face to pull itself out of the emulsion pit.

what happened to the blind chik locust

Anetheon · Post by **Anetheon** » Wed Nov 26, 2008 5:48 pm

The Berserker?

If so I think they just wanted to show off more of the locust horde instead of just repeating the same (boss type) scenarios as the first game.

Cox I know there's a subject description. My entire point was hinting that you shouldve said so in the title because the index page doesnt show the subject description. And the subject description is tiny...

Your bad.

Rented it yesterday, beat half of the campaign on co-op (Hardcore) with my brother, beat the rest of campaign in co-op with him earlier tonight, then played horde mode with 4 random guys up to wave 36.

Awesome game is awesome and shit was SO cash.

woo, good game what did happen to dizzy? Also those reavers suck at some point and are awesome at others. Horde mode is win and the rockworm...i loved that level but were the writers completely baked when they came up with that twist? "Dude, dude, dude, i got it, it's...it's...A GIANT WORM!"

I played it and beat it in a few days. Amazing game, +rep to Epic games.
Campaign was damn long, and I can't wait to try out horde mode.

Awesome game.

Liked every bit of it. Including the fact that they decided not to kill off one of the main characters(Marcus, Dom, Baird, or Cole), which I was extremely fearful that they would.
It was a shame that they had to kill off Carmine... again.
And same with the Maria thing.

But that just pissed me off and... I don't remember much, but there were a lot of dead bodies.

Fun.

Everything about the game is awesome... The scenery is some of the best i've ever seen in a game, the gameplay is awesome, it's just... sweet. They really outdid themselves. Granted a lot of this stuff was apparent in GOW1, but they improved upon all of it.

As soon as I can I'll probably be playing it again. Don't know when that'll be.

Aumaan Anubis · Post by **Aumaan Anubis** » Sun Nov 30, 2008 6:18 pm

Oh yeah, and a quick mention of Cole's speech to the Locust.

Awesome.
Piled on top of more awesome.

I was laughing the whole time.

I only remember facing sires while in the laboratory. I think they should have gave you more back-story on them. They gave you to much room to assume things

Loved the worm.

The locust queen looked surprisingly human, except for her half body/half cape/cloak looking thing.

I wish they would have had more story on Marcus's father.

Lambent were awesome, but I don't remember having to fight any of them.

Riding the Brumak and Reaver was awesome. ("I've always wanted a horsey, but lets just get the fuck outta here")

I don't really understand the maria thing, Did she get old in front of his eyes, or did he just picture her like that?

Where'd the queen disappear to?

How'd the locust get our lancers, why didn't they just make there own?

All in all pretty good, I beat it in about 12 hours on Normal so it could have been longer. Horde's fun, but after you've beaten it once, it gets kinda boring.

I just took it as genetic experiment gone wrong. I'm thinking that either we're descended from the Locusts, or vice-versa.

Same as above.

Remember the exploding wretches from the first game?

He was hallucinating and then he was like, "Oh shit, wtf."

Hawaiian Modder wrote:How'd the locust get our lancers, why didn't they just make there own?

Been wondering that since the first game.

I only played up to the second level where you go into the forest, but it was amazing. I didn't expect it to be all that good.
I'm probably gonna buy it once the price goes down a bit.

We'll probably learn more about them in the third game. But from something I picked up, one of the letters, I can infer that they are Human/Locust hybrids, with some certainty.

Hawaiian Modder wrote:The locust queen looked surprisingly human, except for her half body/half cape/cloak looking thing.

Yeah, again, this'll probably be explained in the third game.

Hawaiian Modder wrote:I don't really understand the maria thing, Did she get old in front of his eyes, or did he just picture her like that?

He pictured her as the perfect woman he knew before they were separated. Then he realized that she was tortured and pretty much brain-dead, and he saw her for what she really was at that moment.

Hawaiian Modder wrote:Where'd the queen disappear to?

Flew off on a reaver. I don't think anyone knows where.
