I just bought the stupid game last week and I haven't seen any DVDTalkers playing it yet. I'm wondering if I should just sell it.

I play it almost every night since by the time I get on Gears is usually filled up.

I have the PC version, but only play on weekends, and have so far only completed the 1st training level....

Been playing more of the 360 / PS3, when I've been playing lately.

I've been playing Gears every night since I got my new LCD.


If anyone is interested in playing, hit me up with an invite

What's your gamertag, Kurrpt? I want to try and play with you guys tonight. I seem to never be able to hook up with you guys anymore or when I do the room is filled .

It's "KurrptSenate", same as here


I usually get on around 6 p.m. est. I had to quit last night, but that was because a cop called. Some chick hit me in the rear at a red light and ran

I played till about 2 a.m. last night

Cool. Probably won't be as early as 6p.m. (gotta get time in with the wife and baby), but I'll try to be on sometime tonight. Be sending you a friend request soon as possible.

Shouldn't you guys just make every night a Gears night and be done with it?

It seems that game has gone from one night a week for you all to 3 now, and I've seen most of you playing nightly anyways.

awesome


do you have the new maps by chance? don't want to block you from entering in case you dont

That happened because Lost Planet was ZERO fun. Thursday should really be the night everyone gets together to play R6V or something. BTW Tuesday is Shadowrun Night

Yeah, I got all the maps.

Excellent!

I get sick of playing all these old maps when I wasted points on the new ones


Do you have any problems with weapon swaps? I usually take out the hammerburst and magnum and replace them with something actually useable

I've said as much in the past. It's like all they play is GOW and nothing else can satisfy.

well, I just got a new LCD, so thats primarily what I've been playing the past week

No, I don't have a problem with swapping weapons as long as it doesn't unbalance things too much. Actually, putting the bow on every map is fun. As far as playing different games, I just think most people invest a certain amount of time into learning how to play a game and don't want to go through that learning curve again so soon. It's especially hard when you're playing with people kicking your ass online. I'm down for more co-op though.

THEN UPDATE TEH FIRST POST NOOB LOL

Is Shadowrun worth getting into? What's it like?

Yup, i do it purely to balance out maps like the one with stairs, snipers on one side, absolutely nothing at the top (fountain level)

i personally don't mind going through the curve again. I absolutely LOVE the new update making the lancer an actual, viable weapon, as opposed to just using the saw

RS:LV should be in the rotation. I don't really want to play GOW every day of the week. Most of us ar going to be switching over to Halo3 in a few weeks. Which will probably replace GOW as the game of choice.

Shadowrun is a team-based FPS with a focus on special abilities and teamwork. There are four races, each with strengths and weaknesses, and between rounds you can buy magic and tech abilities to do things like teleport through walls, floors, and ceilings, turn into smoke, or resurrect your fallen teammates. The big problems with the game are the fact that there's no single player mode (except for training levels and bot matches), there are only 3 game types, not many people seem to be playing it, and it's too expensive. I'll probably hang on to my copy for a few weeks and hope that we can get some games going on Tuesday nights, and then sell it before Halo 3 comes out.

Out of curiosity, who here has the game and is interested in playing?

Agreed. Maybe Thursday could be R6 night? People can still play Gears every night if they're not interested in R6, but at least if we pick one night to be R6 night, the non-Gears people might show up.

i personally think shadowrun is more appealing (online) than Halo 3. The new combat elements are fantastic.

I'm just waiting to pull the trigger on that one

Honestly, I'd play anything as long as it was with you guys and I actually had time. Problem I have is I work a few weekdays until 11:30pm and by that time most of you guys are gone. The days I could play either no one is on, I have to get up early, or I have to spend time with the wife (got myself into that last one).

on days like today (weekend) i'm usually on for way too many hours. Like I was saying before, I stayed up till 2 a.m. against my better judgement last night.

If my friend comes over to play, I'd say theres a good chance of a repeat (if you get on later)

That there is some crazy talk.

I have Shadowrun from Gamefly but will probably be returning it soon. I have yet to see anyone other than Nole playing it online any time i have logged on.

I am chomping at the bit for H3 - the beta was a wonderful tease of how fun it will be online.
