Maybe code for the snub, but they said all the weapons werent revealed yet, so hopefully this is a new one and a cool one!

That's my guess, but why wouldn't they just call it snub? We'll find out soon enough I guess.

Which would make since since the locust just got one in the gorgon. Why change the name again though?

Ugh, I really want some new official info.

If you're implying that I said this thread was useless then you've got the wrong end of the stick. I was just saying how the maps info occurred.

I may of got the wrong end of the stick anyway [may of been joking around]

I usually pulll the short straw.

**Deltafang** · 02-21-2011, 08:00 AM

Thought I'd bump this so people would actually read it. Remember to read the first post on the first page! It has a lot of information!

**NeroRevolver** · 02-21-2011, 08:01 AM

Yeah ill contribute. This would make a really fine sticky.

People pretty much ignore those though. lol

It was already a sticky, but Flak took it down to remind Hooligunn to update it. Not that we have that much more information now than there is on the front page. Epic has been kind of tight lipped.

I'm pretty sure that's not it or I'd just be asked!

I think it's just to de-clutter the amount of stickies at the top of the forum or something? I don't know.

Crotale and I are working on banner headers for the update atm anyway - I'm going to go and add all the little bits and pieces Lee / Rod / Joe have revealed through the forums if I can before the beta news bombshells.

Ah, my mistake. I must of mis-read something

**Hooligunn** · 02-23-2011, 04:05 AM

I'm working on visual updates / layout updates / a few bits of information additions in prep for later today as we speak. I'm actually looking for someone to take over this thread if possible - I'm 100% too busy to keep up with every bit of Gears 3 information these days, and I really should pass the hard work I've laid out on so that I don't do it (and all of you) a disservice with it. Is anyone interested in taking it over? PM me if so, I'd appreciate it. I'll only hand it off to a forum regular though, for obvious reasons.

**NeroRevolver** · 02-23-2011, 04:55 AM

I'm on the forums everyday and I would have no problem really taking over. It's just I'm sure I'd need a bit of help.

Not only am I on the forums everyday but I usually patrol it while everyone is asleep in most timezones. lol

So catching up on information and getting it all there would be no problem.

Overlooking tweets and other tidbits would be something else though.

I'd say yeah I do it, but I don't want to get in over my head.

**Hooligunn** · 02-23-2011, 08:45 AM

I'd be happy to give it to you Nero if you 100% feel up to the task - the tidbits aren't a problem, any I catch I'll PM to you to add. I'll still help out, I just can't justify myself being left in control of the thread without letting it's potential down.

**TAO Devil** · 02-23-2011, 08:51 AM

I'm willing to help with anything I catch as well.

**The Doctor** · 02-23-2011, 08:55 AM

I can contribute tid-bits.

Once this phase of college is over, I'll be much more able to keep up with news.

**Skilled** · 02-23-2011, 09:11 AM

I live on these forums, I'd help out if you need it.

**The Locust Horde** · 02-23-2011, 10:24 AM

A + thread i was falling behind with Gears 3 now im right up to date.
Nice to see an easier casual.
Beast sounds fun.
Can't wait for horde stuff to come in.

**Tkavil** · 02-23-2011, 10:33 AM

I nominate Tao Devil as the beneficiary to this thread.

Its a good thread and has a lot of info. and it keeps you updated with G3...I can't help, so I also think Tao should do it..lol...Is to why I quoted...

**SQuirrel147** · 02-23-2011, 11:12 AM

I'd nominate TAO as well. I'll help out if I can, though.

**Drudgie** · 02-23-2011, 11:14 AM

I agree with Tkavil

**buck3ye** · 02-23-2011, 11:17 AM

we can all pitch in

**NeroRevolver** · 02-23-2011, 12:13 PM

Give it to TAO people seem to love his charm obviously, lol.

That's fine, ill be one of the ones to help and post often though for sure.

**Hooligunn** · 02-23-2011, 01:05 PM

Since people have backed him, I'm going to go with TAO Devil for this one since he's also a trusted GCON host. Until TAO posted, I was completely and utterly fine with you getting it Nero. I hope you'll help TAO out as much as possible, because I think you'd do an awesome job on it. Thank you for putting yourself forward for it, I really appreciate it.

I'll make the thread switchover happen by the end of today so that Tao can do his thing before the whirlwind of info tomorrow.

**Doctalen** · 02-23-2011, 01:08 PM

Tao is a cool guy. Idk what Gcon is but it sounds cool

oh crap........

I'll give it my best, but I'm afraid the full and complete details won't be updated until I get back from being on the road tomorrow. However, I definitely will update it in full.

I gotta say Hooli, thanks for the opportunity but I know I can;t match you on thread construction. You're a beast at this stuff!

Gears community nights.
We get together on good hosts each approved by the gcon staff and play fun custom lobbies.

**NeroRevolver** · 02-23-2011, 01:16 PM

I appreciate you having faith in me doing it. But as I said TAO seems better for the job and I didnt want to get in over my head. Even though I am pretty determined to still help and I defiantly will.

but for future reference if you need anyone to take over anything and everyone else has their hands full just remember me. I'm pretty much never busy with anything else to get online and update information and or seek it out.

@TAO- If you want while you are on the road ill try and gather as much information from the press event and PM it to you so you don't have to hopefully type it all.
