Gears of War 2 Dated, New Coop Mode

[Jul 14, 2008, 2:19 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Mr. Clifford Bleszinski capped off the game presentations at the Microsoft press conference showing off Gears of War 2. If you were hoping for skinny soldiers with high voices, you'll be out of luck, as growling steroidal is still the order of the day. After the lengthy demo, Clifford announces a new multiplayer mode: "We have a new mode in Gears of War 2 called Horde. It's a five-player cooperative mode in which up to five players can take on wave after wave of increasingly difficult locust." He then announces November 7, 2008 as the release date for Gear of War 2.

I think CliffyB is stealing your ideas? ----- http://www.gamemusicjukebox.com/ Game p/reviewer for http://www.gameindustry.com/

	Exactly, loved that game-type. Full server with people being swarmed. Was great fun. GoW2 has a lot to live up to with its version of that mode...5 people...

	Didn't UT have that mode like 5 years ago? It was a blast. Yep, Invasion mode. UT2004 had it was well, and vehicle support was even modded in. On my favorite UT2004 server, if I was the first one to join for that day's cycle I'd vote in an Invasion map and kill the 10 minutes or so it took for people to notice that players were on the server for the day. Supported a hell of a lot more than 5 players though. Sometimes got up to the server capacity (32) before people got sick of Invasion and we voted in something good like Onslaught or Assault.

	I liked GOW. It was just mindless mayhem, but damn fun. Must buy for me as well with the new coop mode.

	Hey Cliffy, If you put this out on PC too, can you actually, you know, but it through beta test before releasing it this time? Or is "deleting your savegames" part of the game now? Go fuck yourselves, Epic. - - - - - - AoC: Darsius (Cimmeria) -- CoH: Photon Prime (Freedom) -- TF2 and CoD4 (and other random FPSes): Slink(FSU)

	Cool, I was really hoping they would do something like this. This one is a must-buy for me.

	Hoard would be to hoard a bunch of items, horde would be the group of people/aliens thing, so I don't think the former would make much sense here.

	Whored?

1.	Hoard?	Jul 14, 2008, 14:24	Lokust
