I'd like to get there to look, but I can't until sunday evening earliest, and by then I'm sure it'll be gone if not already. :(

There is no confirmation, the last COG tag was in a tree, I don't know if that helps but it's all I got.

Did you search along the park.
South of the bridge, about 50 m. Right by the road.

I was there last night, but the neighboors keep on calling the police about people wondering about the park at night.
So we had to leave.

Yeah, but at 7:30 today. LOL DAMN! I missed it! Oh well, I'll survive!

I searched for the COG tag for about 4 hrs at the Toronto location and came up with nothing.... i even bought a GPS unit to try to locate it. NOTHING!!:mad:

SO i was wondering how close are the tags to the GPS location? if it is close than, there is something wrong with the Toronto coordinates. I Need more clues...

thanks

So I have now read about 5 people all going out and searching for the Toronto tag for hours and hours but no one has reported that they found it.... my guess is it is MIA.

It is such a weird spot to hide a tag because there is a fast moving road on one side and on the other side is a 30ft drop into a forest. so there is not may places to hide it and if they did hide it in the forest better coordinates are needed. It is so weird because most of the others were in an urban settings and this is a side of a road with a huge forest right there...(trust me i was looking in the trees)

Anybody with Toronto updates please post here...I'm dying to find out if i looked at the right place or not.

If either of the COG tags have not been found by tomorrow, I think I'll be heading down to take a look. School sucks.

Call off the hounds and search parties as the TORONTO COG tag has been found....

I just returned from the newly updated coordinates and someone has already found it. SOOOOO CLOSE WERE WE (my fiancee, Smokin Chick)

And some dude was trampling all the bushes... what the heck!. I don't think they would hide it the depths of a garden. man some people.

Well if Boston got 3 tags so can Toronto....heres to hoping!!:):)

sorry no pics, that i do regret. The dude said he was going to post online that he found it so.... i would have thought that he would have by now. did not even get a name.

i think Mega31xxx was the other guy there when we saw it.


somebody found it, 20 min before we did lol

good thing you didn't ~ you would have been wandering around the woods in the downpour of rain like us! in the wrong location at that!

totally thought the guy would have posted something by now.

I hope Ottawa gets one! I would be calling in sick to work once I find out its location!

CommanderRown
10-27-2008, 09:57 PM
Another one in Toronto was posted, and I was looking for 1 and a half hrs. in that area. I didn't find nything. (Again) I WILL FIND ONE!

If you learn to read the whole thread, you would notice that Smokin Chick is her name... Why the disrespect?

Good luck on getting more cogs Toronto!

Haha I thought the same thing as Katiff... I was wondering why you would keep mentioning it.

Oh you have to be ****ting me. Me and two friends combed that place.

CommanderRown
10-29-2008, 08:30 AM
I don't know if it was actually there, or if it was a misprint of co-ordinates. The real was was on the street parallel to Mt. Pleasant Rd.

Could you show me on google maps the exact location? Me and a friend went looking at the first co-ordinates, didn't find it, then searched at the cemetery co-ordinates, and apparently it was already found.

Just wanna know where it was, to see where we wasted our time. :\

I want one more in toronto!
Downtown core...imagine if there was one at queens park or dundas square lol...would be cool.

That would be pure open warfare. And I'd risk bodily harm to get one!

Id show up with an AK-47

CommanderRown
10-29-2008, 04:36 PM
Yeah, it was already found, so check the picture in the Last Day thread.

Katiff
10-29-2008, 05:03 PM
hey fellers...i sent a note to Six Okay asking if there is any chance another one will be dropped in Toronto...here is what he said.

"Unfortuantely, I don't think there will be another one in Toronto. Sorry."

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY :(

So i say...why 2 in budapest and only 1 in toronto? what makes budapest better then toronto?!?!?!

CommanderRown
10-29-2008, 06:26 PM
Well...it isn't about which is better I guess. Nevermind Toronto is the most populated part of CANADA!

You guys should be happy, there is no way one of them will be in Raamsdonksveer.....

CommanderRown
10-29-2008, 06:29 PM
Ok, I don't think Raamsdonksveer is as populated as Toronto...or anywhere for that matter. No offense, I just don't see the point in hiding one there.

Yeah, unfortunately it'd be probably very hard for them to plant one in every city (and it wouldn't be very cost-effective for their advertising).
There needs to be a sort of "consolidation prize" version of this so everyone can benefit. Instead of giving us posters for our pre-orders, how about miniature COG tags (say, the size of the ones Marcus has on the Gears 2 cover)? They'd be good keychains and they can't cost more than enough to warrant over $1 in retail price.
Actually, I'd REALLY like that over what we're getting at EB Games in Canada for our pre-order (a poster and...what's an "edge card"?) Only 10 days away from release...would it be such a pain to start production now?

CommanderRown
10-29-2008, 10:12 PM
An edge card is EB games' gift cards. I've still got some from last year. We get a poster? cool.

Future Shop is offering mini cog tags as well as a Gears action figure with their online pre-order.. or atleast they were. The last time i checked was a couple days ago.

Yeah thats right they also offer a locust dude with an exploding head...check it out:

Katiff, I would be careful on that one at to when you made that order online. as I was read on the Futures hop forum some FS member from head office said there was no guaranty you will get one online only on there midnight launch you might get them. Now my local FS flyer says only available instore. and Now on line FS says there is a misprint that there will be no midnight launch. only a 8am opening on the 7th. Don't know if this is only in my city. As for my order that as made online this was done on the 26th and my bill says Out of stock and on backorder. So I don't know if I will get my locust drone

Just a warning I would look into this to make sure your getting it.

Well I hope there are more COG tags in the T.O. but on the other hand I wish there is not anymore in the T.O.

I returned the GPS unit today to best buy!!! I bought this specifically for the COG tag hunt in toronto. But after talking to FR3SH I was getting nervous that best buy would not take it back so I had to return it ASAP. I GOT A FULL REFUND!! alright. sweet

hey six ....IF there is another one in toronto....make sure it is close to some landmarks so i don't need the GPS unit.:)

Just get another one for 14 days.. lol. I love Best Buy's and Future Shop's return policy.

my question is, how many landed in Canada?
And why would one be in Windsor? and not Ottawa.

CommanderRown
11-02-2008, 02:12 PM
I think 2 landed in Canada. I am not sure about if there was an Ottawa one, I thought there was.
