Petition to get RAAM, Cyclops and Skorge as Free DLC! Over 650 Fans Want Them

[COGKiller4 Ever]

MAJOR UPDATE: It has been confirmed by Quinn that the Locust will not feature in Versus MP apparently EPIC said the COG are more approachable as Characters so basically that's the reason we won't be playing as Locust which is a bit of a stupid thing to say as we know the Locust are Unique and are very approachable as Characters. So this thread is now to try and get RAAM, Skorge and Cyclops as Free DLC in the Future!

This is the reason from EPIC why the Locust aren't playable.

Went through the long list of community questions in the bchaps thread (thanks man, great to have all that organized!!) and put together as many answers as I could. I'll hang around and answer more tonight!

• There was talk that the no Locust in MP was a misquote...is this true?
--if this is true, where did the data come from saying that people didn't want locust in MP?
--if it is a balance issue, why not allow locust and CoG to fight side by side (like in UT)?

[EPIC] It was a misquote to say that people didn’t want to play as the Locust – our fans are incredibly excited about playing as the Locust and we’ve specifically designed our new Overrun game mode around not only playing as the Locust but actually getting to feel what it’s like to have the strengths and abilities of the multitude of creatures that are part of the Locust Horde. The Locust have been removed from some of our other competitive multiplayer modes (FFA, Domination, TDM, etc.), and this decision was made not only for reasons of game balance and accessibility, but primarily because it allowed us to explore the depth of personalities of the human characters. Our players really identify with their favorite characters from the Gears universe, and by focusing on them in our MP modes, we’re able to give those characters even more personality, depth, and unique qualities that our fans have requested.

• We've heard that MP is all CoG v CoG now (because people didn't like Locust). Is this true?
--What about people who are Color Blind? (any color blind assist option?)
--Wont the character's voices (battle chatter) be confusing?
--Will we be seeing locust? (particularly, RAAM, Skorge, Sniper, Kantus...[the characters discussed daily on the forums])

[EPIC] See response above

We all knew Skorge and Cyclops didn't make the cut into Gears 3 but I wonder for what reason? Epic knew they were been demanded for but it was never really explained why they didn't make the cut. Also to cut to the chase Alex Brand was been demanded for to feature in Gears 3 but didn't she didn't make the cut either, but now with her recent announcement to feature in Gears of War Judgment that can only give us a bit more hope that we see Skorge and Cyclops back.

I can't see why RAAM wouldn't be a MP Character in Judgment, RAAM was also around during the timeline of Judgment as he led the Locust from the very beginning of E-Day right through until his death fourteen years later which was the Lightmass Offensive and Judgment is set three months/Few Weeks after E-Day so a brief appearance from RAAM in the Campaign is likely but I think maybe the attention is set of a New Locust Villain. Seen as RAAM's Shadow DLC for Gears 3 was very popular with the fans, I think we will most likely see RAAM back in Judgment's Multiplayer at least, to be honest I can't see why Epic would leave him out because as we know "Everyone loves RAAM"

The reason of this thread as you have no doubt gathered is to bring back the characters General RAAM, Cyclops and Skorge for Multiplayer. Every Votes counts and hopefully this time Epic will understand that the community want Skorge and Cyclops, as they were missed from Gears 3. Also most RAAM fans have been using him since Gears of War 1 and it would be a shame not to have that Legend back in the forth installment. So get those votes up high and vote for the Horde!

I was informed by Cyclops 100 that he said that he Noticed Cyclops was featured in VGA Judgment Campaign Trailer and he managed to get some snaps from the Trailer. Great news but we need him in Multiplayer as well.

[GearsCat]

Yes.

10Yes.

I support this.

[COGKiller4 Ever]

Yes.

10Yes.

I support this.

Yeah its good to know, it would be badass to see these three Locust making it into the Multiplayer.

[lewisnic1]

I support this. I really would like to see RAAM making a comeback to multiplayer. As for Skorge and Cyclops, it only seems fair to add them to Judgment's Multiplayer.

[Valafar123]

What I really want to happen:

Commando from GoW1: RAAM

Suicide Missionary from GoW2: Skorge

That's Just Crazy from GoW3: Myrrah

Veteran Gear from GoW2: Palace Guard (I don't care if his helmet obscures vision a bit, I want the option to play as him)

And of course Cyclops should be in the game. Maybe for a Gold Lancer medal?

[Predalian5]

Lol, Third poll on adding skorge

Well all those ideas sound GREAT! It would prove how dedicated the fans would be to unlock the characters. Cyclops however I couldn't think of the best idea for him? of course it would have to be something to do with the Lancer as we know they are totally obsessed with it.

[STK Knoxy]

Gow1 Achievement Best Served Cold Should Unlock Classic RAAM when he had no lights on his armor and his armor was pitch black no silver or grey and brown just black.

[DenyThisFlesh]

I don't care about Skorge or Cyclops, but RAAM being in the game would make sense considering the time frame.

[Valafar123]

Gow1 Achievement Best Served Cold Should Unlock Classic RAAM when he had no lights on his armor and his armor was pitch black no silver or grey and brown just black.

Too easy imo. Defeating their respective campaigns on insane is much harder.

Hardcore RAAM < Insane everything

[Cyclops 100]

YES! I support this!
RAAM should be in this because he is an all time favorite! He is one badass character and this would not be Gears without him.
Skorge and Cyclops need to be in GOWJ because of all the demand they had for Gears 3. People demanded and demanded but they did not turn up. Hopefully Epic saved them for GOWJ.

RAAM- Complete all Gears of War 1 acts on Insane.
Skorge- Complete all Gears of War 2 acts on Insane.
Cyclops- Get 1000 kills with the chainsaw bayonet Or even the Lancer.

[War Pigs]

Too easy imo. Defeating their respective campaigns on insane is much harder.

Hardcore RAAM < Insane everything

This^ i still think Gears on insane is one of the most difficult campaigns to play, and i stilllll die A LLOOOOOTTT even after almost 6 years.

[DanTheGamer11]

They should be the adolescent versions of them

[Valafar123]

This^ i still think Gears on insane is one of the most difficult campaigns to play, and i stilllll die A LLOOOOOTTT even after almost 6 years.

It would also prevent character overuse. If Myrrah was for the "That's Just Crazy" achievement, we wouldn't have 4 of her on every team. We have more Queens than Drones.

And if you see Skorge running around, you know you're in trouble. GoW2 on Insane isn't anything a rookie could pull off. That **** was crazy.

[JP5]

Skorge and cyclops should definately be in the game. I feel sorry for people who used them in the 2nd game and didn't have them for the 3rd. As for RAAM sure why the hell not?

[Clayman XIII]

RAAM and Cyclops make sense, I don't know about Skorge though. I would like him for mp but you never know what they'll do.

[Clone Recon]

Yes I want all of them for mp characters. I dont think they wont do this for raam cause they did raams shadow, but how cool would it be if skorge was in the campaign of judgement.

[Valafar123]

I just hope Skorge has the correct character model and a normal hitbox. The GoW2 model looked awful and was buggy as hell. :/

[Scar Tisshoo]

Skorge please and thank you.

[CHAINS4W]

Yes Please...a;though SKorge wouldnt really make sense.

[NP473L]

Too easy imo. Defeating their respective campaigns on insane is much harder.

Hardcore RAAM < Insane everything

And it would actually make me finish up the Gears 1 Campaign on Insane. I'm still stuck on beating RAAM.

I support that idea.

[STK Knoxy]

Well either way ill be glad if the 3 return ive completed every gears game on insane and gears 3 with no mutators when cliffy b said the games are getting too easy he was right if judgment is as hard as they are making it out to be then i will look forward to this challenge BRING IT!!!

[COGKiller4 Ever]

RAAM and Cyclops make sense, I don't know about Skorge though. I would like him for mp but you never know what they'll do.

Well yeah like you said definitely RAAM and Cyclops, but Skorge is also badass so he must come as well. It would only make sense to see Skorge as many asked for him along with Cyclops for Gears 3 but that didn't turn out to happen, so seeing them in GOWJ would only make sense. As for RAAM he is just generally badass so I think he will definitely make in into Judgment.

[lewisnic1]

Gow1 Achievement Best Served Cold Should Unlock Classic RAAM when he had no lights on his armor and his armor was pitch black no silver or grey and brown just black.

I think EPIC would just stick to the one RAAM Model and that would be the one from Gears of War 3. One of the reasons is because he is alot more of a detailed character model and secondly the way the Characters were fast paced in Gears 3 that is exactly in Judgment. So Epic would have to use RAAM's Model from Gears 3 to co-inside with the fast pasted multiplayer in Gears Judgment.

[Trugamer97]

Yes but you really need to stop excluding Bolter.

[CARMINE COG]

Skorge won't be in Judgment I think.

[COGKiller4 Ever]

Skorge won't be in Judgment I think.

Well nobody knows, infact it wouldn't surprise me to see Skorge in GOWJ Multiplayer due to the fact he was been demanded for by the community to feature in Gears of War 3 Multiplayer but Epic decided against that for some reason, and that reason was probably the fact they were concentrating on working on GOWJ. If Epic put two and two together they could kill two birds with one stone, they could put Skorge in Gears of War Judgment, fans get him, then Epic then get £45 which it how much Gears Judgment is currently up for Pre-Order.

Also don't get me wrong RAAM and Cyclops are also extremely popular but the question was about Skorge.

[Bazinga-A7X]

It would also prevent character overuse. If Myrrah was for the "That's Just Crazy" achievement, we wouldn't have 4 of her on every team. We have more Queens than Drones.

And if you see Skorge running around, you know you're in trouble. GoW2 on Insane isn't anything a rookie could pull off. That **** was crazy.

We had Myrah from the beginning because a female character was needed for the Locust side for that bloody Battle Mistress medal.

[Valafar123]

We had Myrah from the beginning because a female character was needed for the Locust side for that bloody Battle Mistress medal.

Which was a stupid, stupid medal. Myrrah should be an unlock so I don't need to see 4 of her a match. -.-

[Flame Theron]

Heck yes to that. I was also wondering if since it's a prequel RAAM would make some sort of appearance in the campaign.

[shen Gaoren AJ]

I totally agree!!! They should add them.

[STK Knoxy]

Then who are the idiots who voted no they must be mentaly challenged or COG Lovers

[Viewing the hue]

who said no! damn psychos

[COGKiller4 Ever]

Then who are the idiots who voted no they must be mentaly challenged or COG Lovers

Yeah they must be COG Lovers, don't get me wrong everyone is in-titled to an opinion but RAAM, Skorge and and Cyclops would fit nicely into GOWJ and we need more votes! Best idea would be to bang this thread on your signature.

[III HOOP III]

YES!! And bring back RIVER too.

[GearsPro23]

I hope they make the cut for the same reasons as everyone else.Skorge,Cyclops, and RAAM were BADA55

[Valafar123]

who said no! damn psychos

You can tell by clicking the votes.

[lewisnic1]

I hope they make the cut for the same reasons as everyone else.Skorge,Cyclops, and RAAM were BADA55

Yeah all three of them are totally badass!! I just hope all three of them make it into Judgment's Multiplayer, I can't see why they wouldn't as all three of them are popular characters, RAAM especially.

[DaRkNeSs]

Yes. Be nice to see them in campaign too:

RAAM w/ Elite Maulers and Elite Theron's
Skorge w/ Elite Grinders and Elite Kantus'

[SHMEEDIDDY]

All I want, No I demand my Skorge, I dont mind RAAM, but to damn annoying to use him in my sperpective. Skorge was my absolute Fave. MP charcter, and him for few moment(s) in the campaign would be sweet, like him in the background of the game a dark shadowy figure during the war and General RAAM not in shadow and guiding his army of locust destroying sera in general! I want Skorge back since he wasnt in Gow 3, make him abit different too!
