i heard some ppl that played the MP demo at E3 say they saw a Gatling gun
i also heard Epic say that they will have some more weapons, and a couple of unique ones!

[Zoso Fan]

plus the same number of lucust guns as human guns!

[chron1caust]

Ya but in the previews it looked like the locust used the same guns

[Zoso Fan]

ya i know, they just announced that there will be locust guns avalaible. (same # as human) probaly like a locust shotgun etc.

[chron1caust]

Ok, if you see any in any videos tell me so i can list them.

[Sebaz]

I hope their are like 10-13 weapons to use from. maybe a change in grenades would be nice. grenade that explodes and spikes comes out is a suggestion from an other forum.

[Uday23]

ya i know, they just announced that there will be locust guns avalaible. (same # as human) probaly like a locust shotgun etc.

its going to be like BF2 MC and Halo 2, both the locust and the COG both have the "same weapons" just different versions

[Gear]

Sniper?! I love sniper! :)

[Zoso Fan]

I think kinda around the lines yes. they will have the same types of weapons... but what about the locust Bow and arrow! I wonder what the gears will have...

[Pistola-ma]

From what you tell me, I really like their weapon choice. Alot like Halo1/2... which is good, but enough variation to not mimick any games.

[Uday23]

i think the Bow and Arrow should go under "weapons not sure about" b/c we really don't know much about it

[Zoso Fan]

It has more guns than Halo 2... :)

[Uday23]

i am soooo weapon crazy, i can't wait till i see all the weapons of GoW, especially the "unique" ones CliffyB was talking about!!!!!!!!!

[Zoso Fan]

Most excited about the HAMMER OF DAWN... just sounds badass alone!!!

[chron1caust]

yes it does sound badass, I think that my favorite weapon though will be the Assault Rifle. Becuase(i know this sounds noobish)but I love to spray. I mean like when i see like 4 enemies standing in a door I just love to unload all of my ammo into their chest.

[Zoso Fan]

I know! Lets of "the shining" amounts of blood! :)

[chron1caust]

Ya, but usually i take cover and wait for my enemies to come to me

[Sebaz]

chron1caust. you let ur secrets out , people will use it against you. *sebaz makes a note in his book on how chron1caust plays his games.

[Uday23]

Most excited about the HAMMER OF DAWN... just sounds badass alone!!!

yeah that sounds really cool and creative!

[Zoso Fan]

IM just curious how they will do the camera angle while using it! :)

[360GearsFanatic]

what i need is some dual weild rocket launchers! that is totally fake but it would be fun to put campaign mode on the easiest difficulty level and just blow the crap outta everything!!

[Zoso Fan]

I want the ability to have my arm blown off and shoot one-armed with less accuracy! That would be pretty Gory though... :)

[HeartlessGhost]

I want the ability to have my arm blown off and shoot one-armed with less accuracy! That would be pretty Gory though... :)

That would rock, Kinda like the Bushido Blade games (could slice the arms of your opponent rendering them useless or week)

But it would be pretty fun to tare off the arms and leg of your opponent leaving them helpless hopping around the map begging to die!! :rolleyes:

[Zoso Fan]

The chainsaw would be rad to use at that point... no where to run! :)

[D3LTA 38]

Think they'll have power-ups?

[SkateXer99]

it's possible, but i wont use powerups. i know that as a fact.

[Zoso Fan]

Think they'll have power-ups?

I think the reload timing thing that gives you the power boost might be the only type of thing for single player.. BUT very possible for multiplayer. I want to see some Unreal tournament goodies!:D

[HeartlessGhost]

I don't think power ups would add much to the game.. well that depends, powers ups like cloak, or invincible would kinda be a pain in the butt, it also would take away from the "pop and stop" fun of the game, but maybe a berserker power up were rate of fire ups or reload time is better, or even a power up to super charge your shots so they rip though cover like butter for a round or a short time ..make it so you can have one guy flush out the pray and the others can do a little Duck Hunting ;)

[Zoso Fan]

i still think there should be modes where you can play as beserkers and stuff!

[SkateXer99]

Powerup like a hologram could come in handy at times. Make one in the middle of a room, dissapears in a few seconds, but in it's time, bullets fly, revealing the position of enemies.

Or maybe not, cus I can see myself screaming at the TV and breaking controllers from anger.

[Zoso Fan]

I would like something like a locust being able to change to look like a human for a set amount of time (or vise versa) so your team thinks someones team killing. this would also make people work more as a team, know where people are at all times!) But i guess it would be hard to keep track and would kinda get annoying...

[SkateXer99]

that would add a whole lot into the teamwork. multiplayer is really team-focused, and if your teammates are falling by your side by one of your friends, something must be up.
God, I wouldn't be able to trust anyone. I guess you shouldn't split up then.

[Zoso Fan]

Ya, thats the thing, people that try to play this game like a normal shooter are gonna be kills for the takin' the first few days the games out. Hopefully people realize this game isnt a run and gun. i would hate it to recieve negative feedback because some 10 year old wanted it to be another generic quake 4 copy... (no diss meant to quake 4 bty) i own it for PC and love it! I got if for PC because it got better reviews. (it was ported to the 360...)

[soda]

Man a bow and arrow,
now that would be fun!

[Orca Orcinus]

The Hammer of Dawn sounds awesome, but especially the concept for multiplayer co-op. If you didn't catch the OXM 8 page interview with Cliffy B, he mentioned how two players will be able to focus their laser designators for the cannon to increase the damage output. I doubt that it will be available on a lot of maps in multiplayer deathmatch. I mean, orbital satellite ion cannons are really hard to dodge. ROFL! But, hey, so is a Redeemer round. As far as boosts...I wouldn't expect anything like the damage/health regen boosts of the UT series. Maybe adrenaline drug boosters, or epinephrine shots for downed allies or yourself. I haven't watched Band of Brothers, but it was mentioned as one of the big inspirations for the game. So it's possible that kind of wartime field medical treatment approach will be used. I just hope it's more realistic than GRAW. When a team-mate takes a tank round, he should be shredded meat; not just 'in need of a bandaid'.

[Dragon]

in Gears of War in the June issue of OXM! it said under
Special Weapons:

Torquebow - crossbow that fires detonating darts using the analog sticks to determain if you fire a volley or a hard shot that flies straight across the level, can be remotely detonated as well.
its a good read was some other stuff about weapons too/.

[JustinR]

wonder what would happen if two people tried to chainsaw each other at the same time? In multiplayer will you be able to pick up weapons from killed enemies and will you be able to use the locusts weapons and vice versa?

[SkateXer99]

I think you can justin. We saw a locust with the rifle and the attached chainsaw in MP, so if the locust dont have that weapon at the start, then you can pick it up.

WOW thanks i have been wandering about that bow and arrow weapons, thats sounds so cool and creative!

i think who ever started first would win, b/c its impossible to start at the EXACT same time, o well who knows, they might have some kind of counter move for this, well thats what i heard, has Zoso he will tell u more about it, and u can pick up weapons/ammo from dead player(pretty sure) and u can use locust weapons and vise versa(FOR SURE)!

[Uday23]

BTW chron1caust , u can change "bow and arrow" weapon to Torquebow, and u forgot to put Gatling gun in for weapons we are not sure about

[Full Metal Jacket]

I want to see more of the Locust Horde weapons. I'm sure they have some nasty melee attacks as well.

[JustinR]

I gotta say though from the videos I've seen of this game I really like the way the weapons sound.I really seem to notice that everytime I watch the videos like the shotgun has such a boom behind it sounds really good

[UberJuggernaut]

its going to be like BF2 MC and Halo 2, both the locust and the COG both have the "same weapons" just different versions
So the weapons are going to be a little like killzone, as in the hellghasts used different weapons than good guys did

[Uday23]

like biting of dom's face!




So the weapons are going to be a little like killzone, as in the hellghasts used different weapons than good guys did

well i don't know what ur talkin about but the weapons for the locust and COG are essentially the same, both will have a assult rifle type weapon but with minor differences like the COG's rifle will have a chainsaw, another ex. both will have a sniper but they might look different but are used practically the same, well it doesnt really matter b/c COG can use locust weapons and vise versa!

[Zoso Fan]

AKA every good shooter game ever... Kill Zone didn;t invent that trend. All they invented was a overrated game...

[Zoso Fan]

The weapons sound have been fine tuned alot. Rod Furgusson stated that Cliffy had gone through 6 different rifle sounds for the main auto-matic! :) This was from e3 2k6 byt...

[DarkSoldier15]

Wow what i read so far from you guys this has a great selection of weapons, i like how you can chainsaw up those locust into bloody dead ones lol, but i like how Cliffy is making great improvements on the Intense action and the ability to "Take Cover" and shoot the Monstrous Locust,so keep it up CliffyB your doing Great <Claps Hands>

[Snake]

I wouldn't bash Killzone too much. It was an alright game and Cliff is buddies with the guy who designed it :)

[SkateXer99]

killzone just tried to be too real IMO. When you change weapons, your view goes down to your body as you switch, or even throwing grenades causes a camera swirv. And the bugs were nasty. :/

But it was alright.

[Snake]

It had it's quirks, for sure. It was by no means a bad game though :)

(Plus, I just freakin love the Helghast)

[chron1caust]

This will be a lot like Halo2 like how if your a Spartan you can use the Elite guns and vice versa. Thx for your contributes. This game is lookin good :)

[Jonesy]

can u use Locust weapons in single player?

[soda]

can u use Locust weapons in single player?
You should be able to if you kill a locust and swap its weapon for yours

[cUnNiNg_StUnTs]

There's a chaingun in the King Raven

[Uday23]

Smoke Grenades Confirmed!

i also found a video(dunno if its new):
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2267094797259814617&q=gears+of+war
half trough the footage, theres a locust guy shooting with a rocket or grenade launcher(not sure)

[RIGOR_MORTIS]

Rocket launcher hit the car in front of him yet it didn't really do any damage to anything... :( I really wonder how rocket launchers can be incorporated in such a "cover" game. I don't know what they'll do.

[Zoso Fan]

I read a multiplaye review that sayed you only got two rockets stock, does anyone know if this is true?

[seph]

killzone just tried to be too real IMO. When you change weapons, your view goes down to your body as you switch, or even throwing grenades causes a camera swirv. And the bugs were nasty. :/

But it was alright.

Stuff like that is what I love about games. Specially in a FPS game, realistic camera views is awesome.

[Zoso Fan]

Ya realistic camera views with no fun gameplay... woohoo... IMO fun games are better! :)

The thing I love about that video is that that enemy by the cars has a rocket launcher. So there's hope of a Rocket Launcher in game. :)

their is a RL in the game, i have seen it and seen the lil pic of it during the mp games, u know the one in the corner that shows the ammo and stuff....

[Zoso Fan]

do you guys know if their is only two shots stock?

[Uday23]

do you guys know if their is only two shots stock?

i remember seeing 3 in the ammo slot next to the pic of the RL in the corner of the screen, but i am not sure, i hope they make the RL good!

[chron1caust]

I hope that as a secondary fire that you can control the rocket, like in PDZ, if any of you know what im yalking about.

[cUnNiNg_StUnTs]

i know what ur talkin about, but i doubt they will have that....

here is the link, just look in the right upper corner, its looks like a RL and it only has 3 ammo so we can assume it is a powerful weapon, *hint* Rocketlauncher!

By the time Zoso finds it, we would had made him spontaniously combust with our comments.:D

[Ma1agate]

I just hope the Locust and COG weapons are significantly different. I realize if you're going to have players playing on each side and starting with different weapons you're going to have to have similar capabilities for each to be fair, but I hope that the weapons feel different enough and aren't just the same weapons for both sides using different models.

~Ma1
I don't think that you have to make the weapons for each side similar because both sides can use the same weapons, so you could make unique ones to both sides of the war but you can use every weapon so it doesn't really matter.

[RawrInATor]

Whats the King Raven?
Is that a bird that sits on your shoulder and gouges out the enemies eyes??!! or poops acid?
Oh and to that guy who said about the limb blown off... I started a forum about that... Where were u to give support! GOD! :D

"King Raven" is the callsign of the helicopter in the E3 demo

Something like 500 headshots playing online would be cool. The achivents for GoW should be intresting. I wonder if they are going to have, 100 chainsaw melee attacks, or 200 curb stomps. It will make the bloodiest achivents of all time!

just type Curbstomp into wikipedia or some dictionary or go to video.google.com, and the locust wont have a chainsaw, maybe something like it, but it wont matter b/c in the game everyone can use the same weapons!

[Truken]

I think the reload timing thing that gives you the power boost might be the only type of thing for single player.. BUT very possible for multiplayer. I want to see some Unreal tournament goodies!:D

How completely awesome would it be to see ur enemy's weapon jam in MP, then run up and chainsaw his ass???? AWESOME!!!!!!!

DUDE U CAN CURBSTOMP IN GEARS???????? whoa.

[Uday23]

well the guns in gow only jam for a second so its not too much time to do anything, but i guess every second counts in a game like GoW!


DUDE U CAN CURBSTOMP IN GEARS???????? whoa.

O YA! u can curbstomp, it was at E3 and it so freakin brutal and cool! i can't wait to see it in action!

yea Cliffy said you'll have enough time to run up and chainsaw them. Besides the games so fast paced if you dont have time you could just fire 5-6 rounds into their head so it rocks just as much

[Uday23]

well cliffy said hes try to mke it even. I dont think it will be like this topic where the Locust have 4 guns. The actual gameplay here is still a huge mystery.

[Xenomorph]

wonder what would happen if two people tried to chainsaw each other at the same time? In multiplayer will you be able to pick up weapons from killed enemies and will you be able to use the locusts weapons and vice versa?
I think if 2 people chainsawed each other it should be a RE4/DBZ style button-mashing!!! Whoever is faster at mashing the B-button will decapitate the loser!!! that would be awesome!!!:D

[Uday23]

^^^yes u can use all the weapons and so can the locusts in SP and MP

By looking at the multiplayer screenshots, they look exactly the same. Single Player might be another story, though.

Anyone have a link to a video where the curb stomp was used? I wanna see that crap.

idk if anyone said this but it is Bolo granade

[Zoso Fan]

By looking at the multiplayer screenshots, they look exactly the same. Single Player might be another story, though.

They are infact different. I am pretty darn sure that the Locusts have the same amount of weapons of the COGS that are different. Like the Torque Bow sounds like a locust weapon. COGS will probaly get the Rocket Launcher and Locusts will get the Torque Bow. But its been confirmed that they both have the same amount of weapons

[Zoso Fan]

yes Zoso is right! both COGs and locusts will have the same number of weapons just different versions, like if the COGs get an assult rifle then the locusts do to(lancer, hammerburst) and if the Locusts get an explosive weapon then the COGs should to(boomshot or torquebow, maybe the COGs will get a super cool RL)

[Chainsaw Guardian]

Does anyone know if the Locust grenades can stick into players? If you go to the picture of the set of 3 grenades and look at the diagram on the bottom left side then look at the 3rd picture down it says STICK! in small letters.

no, others (like Zoso, lol) have been confused about this too, cliffy called them "Stick" grenades not "sticky", and we figured out that the grenades are shaped like a stick, kind of like a stick of dynamite on a chain, so the nades dont stick to ppl(or else bungie would have something to say;) ) but they are Stick bolo nades b/c they are not like the traditional egg like grenades they are more like a stick on a chain

[Uday23]

idk if anyone said this but it is Bolo granade

lol, yes we all know that its called a Bolo grenade, i think that means its a explosive stick on a chain, does anyone know if the term "bolo" means on a chain or a grenade on a stick or something?

[Zoso Fan]

I hope they have (or add) the feature though because the best part of Halo is sticking people and i think GOW could incorperate that nicely. (Not to compare games BTW)

[Uday23]

well they kind of already have that, dont forget about the TORQUEBOW and its arrows that are not only explosive but they can stick into the enemy! so i doubt they will have "sticky" nades

[Zoso Fan]

Thank gosh sticky nades were confirmed, i didnt really think they had them either

Now is this going to be gernades that are high-tech or gernades with spikes on them to stick to flesh.

Now is this going to be gernades that are high-tech or gernades with spikes on them to stick to flesh.

If you look at the concept art here;

the bottom picture in the right hand column is concept art of locust grenades, and they look a little spiky :D I'm guessing those little spikes might "grow" out and stab into your target.

well me and Zoso disscussed this and we decided that frag, smoke and flash nades are seperate than the sticky nade, which means the frag nades in that pic above and the frag nades used in the e3 demo are not the sticky nades, so we are assuming that he sticky nades are a whole other type of grenade that has not been shown yet, but im not sure if they are high tech or just spicky or something, i would expect them to be high tech, b/c the other nades already look spicky, i would like it if the newly announced sticky grenades stuck to ppl in a cool and creative way

Most likely high-tech as the technology to stick would be quite hard to do. I hope instead of sticking to the target, they stick the target to the floor, so they can not move for about 5 seconds.

I wonder if you could pull the sticky nades off?

I have a theory, one of the grenades looks like a mace (spikes coming out of it in all directions) maybe it sticks to them by like stabbing them! :)

maybe little claws or thin robotic chains will wrap around your chest...that would be more advanced but kinda hard to do for a game....
