The Sequel to Gears of War 360 Users Never Got

[DaNCeSWiTHBuLLeTS]

Sorry for my many posts tonight, fellas. I just recently got back into Gears of War for the PC and have tried out all the big mods in progress. If you couldn't tell, I'm extremely excited for what the future holds. I promise this will be the last thread I start for the week. But moving on to my main point:

Would it be possible one day for all the fantastic mods to be combined into one, big bundle? I'm not only talking about H.I.V.E., The Pendulum Wars Elite, Project Warzone, and Lancer Gauntlet (although I know Katham doesn't want people messing with his baby, which is understandable), but also the custom single player missions spread throughout these forums. In essence, we'd have enough content to warrant an entirely separate game or an expansion to Gears of War, one exclusive the PC. Not to mention, it'd also make it a hell of a lot more convenient for people to download.

Of course, I'm not saying that the modders SHOULD do this. I recognize the fact that I have absolutely no claims to any one of these projects and I genuinely respect each piece of custom work passionately churned out for this gem of a game. I apologize if I come off as a presumptuous know-it-all and I assure you, that is not my intention. However, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this and I offer another apology if this topic has been brought up numerous times before.

Haha, it's good to post, keeps the forum alive. It'd be cool indeed to combine all the mods into one, but the problem lies in the fact there's so many broken links and content missing, it's nigh impossible to recover everything. Sad to see you didn't mention Beast Mode or my precious OverRule (in poor alpha stages) .... lol, I never really did finish anything, always in beta now or then, but with UDK I've learned so much more.

We've already missed the train for custom multiplayer revival with showing custom map names, which is understandable. Mods will remain separate, it's too much work for anyone to combine everything into a single super menu... least without scripting capabilities.

What really should be done for this game is a new boss battle, it's how Epic promoted the game with the brumak level, hahaha. The boss would be mostly matinee and kismet, so that'd limit it quite a bit, like skorge from gears 2, the queen on beetle, lambent berserker or lambent leviathan.

I didn't mean to upset you! I've played Beast Mode and loved it. It was a little buggy, but I was nonetheless blown away by how you made the game your own. Programming the game to allow players to control any Locust unit is definitely no easy job. Unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to try OverRule. I'll definitely get to it tonight once I install Gears on my home computer. If it's any consolation, I'm well aware of your contributions to the modding community. Heck, I recall some of your posts from two years ago when I frequented this forum. You are regarded just as highly as bmbr and Cowboy
