Earliest I'd even begin to think CoD 5 is late 2009.

Naw man, they have a different company (the one that did CoD3) working on CoD5 and its going back to WW2 and should be out this fall. Then CoD6 back in the modern day and done by IW again will be out in fall of 09. Atleast thats what I've heard from a couple places and I heard thats how they want to release em, staggered like that. I could be wrong, i mean that is only speculation but thats what i heard.

Ah, I only read about IW's and it wasn't numbered they just said, "sequal" to CoD4. I didn't realize Treyarch was doin' another WWII one. Hell, how can people still enjoy WWII FPS games, they put out like, what, 20 a year? If Activision was smart about this they'd have both companies workin' on the Modern series, IW doin' everything BUT the multiplayer net codin' and patching, and just forget about the old crap.
 
Great news, I've been waiting all this time to get into a fight with that guy (he looked as big as General Raam) at the ending of GoW that was mounting that flying bestiality. O.O
 
Shouldn't they call it "Gears of War Disc 2" ?

(Sorry i tried to hold that in for days and i was just about ready to burst)
 
There was big first-look exclusive for Gears 2 in the latest issue of Game Informer, with lots of pictures. Pretty pictures. Lots of them. It included a comparison of the Gridlock multi-player level from the first and second games, and the difference in detail is staggering. The majority of the article pertained to the updates they've made in the Unreal Engine and how it will affect GoW2. There was a bit about how they plan to expand the storytelling some, but without upsetting the pace of the game. Some mention of co-op improvements as well, but, and i found this odd, but no mention of changes to multiplayer vs. mode. Plus a little about new characters/enemies.....

...And poison grenades....

As I still play Gears online almost everyday, November can't come soon enough. It's the most enjoyment i've had from an online shooter to date. (Warhawk is a VERY close second)
 
If they don't fix bullet lag, at least marginally, this game will fall by the wayside once again after the initial rush.
 
Bullet lag isn't really something to be fixed on Epic's end. That comes from either your connection or the host's. Or some 12 year old glitching his sack off. Typically the games i play in regularly don't have much if any bullet lag. If i do get into a random game with an obscene amount of lag, i'll just find another. Or just host myself.
 
Could have sworn I responded to this already... Anyway, it's entirely their fault and they've made sure to make mention of it on several accounts. If the net code was solid their wouldn't be the problems. As is, GoW is the only game, I've ever played at least, on the 360 with the issue (major bullet lag). Same with these glitches that have been around since... day 1. Crabwalkin' and slidin' chainsaw, they haven't even bothered to fix these at all, ever. IW would have fixed it, Capcom did fix it (LP glitches), Sierra was quick to fix up TF2's lag -lag- (lag), did I say "lag"? issues, and never had a single problem with F.E.A.R. What has Epic done for you lately? Aside from Annex and, eh, 3 new maps? Nothing aside from stickin' their willy in yer pooter when the game went to PC.

What Strid said. When was the last time there was major bullet lag in H3/CoD4/R6V2? There might be very very small bullet lag just from not being host, but nothing to the degree that GoW is.
 
I usually played in servers that werent to laggy, but even then the difference between player and host was absolutely fucking ridiculous. I mean you could count the difference in bullet lag when sniping.

Wow I just found out that the voice actor that does Marcus Fenix was also the voice actor of Bender from Futurama. As weird as it may seem that makes me like the game a little bit more. :D Everything seems to be "more". The visuals, action, everything seems to have been set to "11".
 
What youre to good to post in the other thread? Merged threads. And yeah, watched the trailer last night, should be sick.
 
Sorry raidr. I searched for it but Qcdn is all f'ed up on my pc. Thanks for screwing.. i mean fixing the thread tho^^
 
Hopeing for 4 Player Coop or I'm not buying.

Who am I kidding, ofcourse I'll buy either way. I'd just prefer them to make Coop more than 2 players. Even if it means no more AI partners that can take Boomshots to the face on the hardest difficulty and still keep on trucking without having to be revived.
 
Where the FUCK is my Traingun!?!
 
Anyone find it funny no matter how badass they upgrade the UE to they never seem to care to fix their shitty, shitty lookin' ragdoll corpses? It gets me every time D:

Badass. This is the reason to own a 360, not Halo. GoW > Halo.

So can't wait for this. I just hope my 360 doesn't RRoD =P
