This Event Is Now Over

Thank you for attending!

GCON is bringing it's Community Night format for a one night special event on Bulletstorm's Anarchy mode this weekend. Get together with three other friends to join a host, or jump in solo and meet some brand new people - it's entirely up to you. Whilst we won't be making this a competition, we'd love for you to share your high scores in the thread in the spirit of Bulletstorm, and see who else can beat (or fail to beat) your score.

This also serves as our test run for an upcoming Bulletstorm Game with Developers event coming from GCON at an unannounced date, and will help us deliver the best experience possible when the event eventually rolls around. To keep up to date on the Bulletstorm GWD, bookmark this page.

GCON is a Gears based community, and as such, this is currently an Xbox 360 only event. We really hate to leave other platforms out, but we'd be doing you a disservice if we didn't use our trusted hosts. We apologise for the inconvienience.

A Quick Introduction to GCON
GCON is a community run group that has been producing events and content for the official Gears of War community for over a year. We have an extensive website with a full profile system including awards and levels, and a team comprised of over 30 different members of the community.

Special: Launch Weekend Anarchy
All Lobbies Open at 10pm GMT / 5pm EST / 2pm PST
Lobbies are usually open for around 2-5 hours depending

Attending this special GCON event is a quick and easy process. All you'll need to do is return to this thread at the times listed below for the event - from there, you simply click the host you want to join at the top of this page, message them on Xbox.com for an invitation, and then wait at your console! Our lobbies can support up to three players (since one space is taken up by a host), so feel free to bring some friends to the party.

Notice to previous GCON Attendees: This event is not for Gears of War, and as such, there will be no awards, attendance counts or prize tickets for this event.

This is a one-off standard event, so no prizes will be avaliable.

Correct - don't forget we have a host though, so we can only fit three non-hosts per lobby.

**Kaylila** · 02-21-2011, 06:31 PM

TeeHEE!!! Im kinda Giddy to play Bulletstorm! I am getting it tonight at midnight and I know I am going to practice practice practice so that when this Saturday comes I will be the most foul-mouthed drunk space pirate that anyone has ever seen!

<.< oh wait I said that wrong...

**Insan3P3nquin** · 02-21-2011, 06:40 PM

This should be fun.
Glad to see GCON will be on Bulletstorm also.

How many host will be holding lobbies during this event?

**CrObInStInE** · 02-21-2011, 07:34 PM

I have no idea how this works but I look forward to learning and hopefully can get into this.

Just curious hooli but is this going to turn into a regular thing with awards for BS too?

Nope - as we put in the OP, this is a one off Bulletstorm event (well one of two if you count our Game with Developers) whilst we take a weekend break from Gears due to the upcoming beta announcements / Bulletstorm's release this week. That's why there are no awards or anything counted at this event.

Simply put, there are no plans to ever make GCON encompass Bulletstorm - we're all about the Gears !

**Shaunyowns** · 02-22-2011, 08:55 AM

The only way to go

I've got 10 hosts lined up already, but I do expect more.

Depending on demand, we can have all of them host.

Regardless, we'll definitely have enough!

**TaknLiv3s** · 02-22-2011, 10:42 AM

This is going to be some fun times............. DickTits

**TaknLiv3s** · 02-22-2011, 10:44 AM

Hopefully I can get in Gnashes room always good times!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank Jebus.. Or GCON

**EleoIsDead** · 02-22-2011, 03:10 PM

I keep missing these events because I always happen to have some prior engagement on the weekends when they take place. Really hoping I can get in on a Gears or Bulletstorm event in the future. Does GCON intend on having more events related to Bulletstorm specifically?

EDIT: Nevermind the last question, lol.

I'm doing one, though the quality isn't as good as Gnashes as it stands - I need to upgrade my upload connection.

**VALEK** · 02-25-2011, 10:49 PM

This sounds fun. Might need to check it out..

**Drudgie** · 02-26-2011, 11:50 AM

Don't forget about this event Bulletstorm players

**DEADlift** · 02-26-2011, 11:53 AM

How many hosts are we going to have? Since there is only four people per party, may I suggest that we have some "guest hosts" from the Gcon community start parties so we can get as many people playing as possible.

**Gnashes** · 02-26-2011, 11:54 AM

Also, I THINK we're going to go with a universal 10pm GMT / 5pm EST / 2pm PST start time.

Yeah, you need to be careful. Live Streaming uses a LOT of upload bandwidth which may impair the ability to host a match properly.(Without severe lag)
