Warplay3r Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 There were rings? I just recall large scars/cuts. Yeah. I didn't notice any rings. And you're saying that Locusts can turn humans into Locust, by using these 'rings' in his back? I don't know about that, I thought the Locusts just wanted to torture the people they captured. Maybe there is more to it, then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe there is more to it, then... Yeah, same here. I don't think they can convert humans, just torture them. The closest thing to humans being converted to Locust are Sires, but that's still pretty far off. Edited January 2, 2009 by Blackadder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Hell, I wouldn't be too surprised if the Locust Queen was Marcus's Mother. I'm thinking that Adam Fenix f*cked a Locust, and is the father of the queen.... Or maybe it is just the rum talking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow, I think it would be more likely that the Locust Queen was Marcus's mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, not like that, I read about it somewhere ages ago and it fit very well, Something like that Research Falicity with Niles was doing it, Someone left with the research, etc and they were just starting to try and work it out again, so they had the Sires... And there were rings on his back, I played through that level not too long ago and I remember seeing them... unless they were paticually chunky scars.

Hart Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I'm pretty sure they're just his piercings.. not some wierd Locust torture. He already has an ear piercing and he seems like the kind of guy who would get an extreme one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, the one I did read was WAY better, that one had the gist of what it was saying though, but less explained and not working as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master of Pain. Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I found it almost impossible to master when playing alone. When I played co-op with someone, we got it on the first try. Your mate needs to be somewhat competent probably. I don't think you alone can have enough firepower with the railgun to kill it. And it doesn't matter if you shoot down the drivers first. The reaver will crush you even when both drones are dead. IMO the most annoying parts were when the players are split up and have to go with an AI player each. In a later level it took me hours to complete it on coop because the AI players wouldn't adjust to our style and get themselves in stupid situations. it might be easier to play these parts alone because you only need to worry about yourself and not about what is happening on the other balcony...

Kewfmwpj Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Great game online, really grown on me. Especially in private matches with a 5 v 5 all with people you know.Anyone else think the ranking system is completley fubard though? Anyway if anyone is up for some wingman just add me. I've invited Funky a few times but he seems scared of me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanillainy Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Sorry man, was with a few other friends. Ranking system eats dick, I've been at 2 stripe for ever. BUT WHAT THE f*ck.

With Annex, you have to capture the ring and stay in it untill it moves to another location. Finished with Gears now, 1000/1000 and the lag is just ruining online. Every few games you get a game that is just horrible, you can't even pick anything up or reload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to bother with it now. I know i'm late and you've already done it but if you don't quit to the main menu then the game wont save your kills, so if you're just quitting to dashboard then you will be losing out. That's the same with all the other achievements that have those little counters popping up. By the way did you just use another profile to get the rest of the kills?. I've not been on Gears 2 in a while, still only at Skorge part on insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slamman Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I just rented the game, it was a huge tossup to bother with the first one, even as a purchase. I am getting used to the controls, the online trials in the single player game, the training excersizes I started off doing, now in the main story mission, I can't get past the part where the mobile armored tank falls into the revene and the one taken over makes it across a narrow bridge. What am I doing wrong? Besides being a lousy non-auto aim kinda gamer??? I am liking this the more I play it to be honest, the graphics are very well done but the animation and control suffer and bring the rest down as a whole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slamman Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Problem I have with GoW as well as CoD was they basically start you off with the story missions and save as you go, which is confusing because I'm afraid of losing the game with the consoles and media heating up (literally) and of course, you re-start some ways back. It can be annoying. I spent most of my effort shooting the guys trying to get to their turret. Got a still of where I need to fire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slamman Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 (edited) Dude, that was a quick on the draw reply, and I did see it but my connection fell off last night after I pulled it up. I've rented this title and then got caught up in Modern Warfare and Crackdown titles I bought, and of which I have to return as well; Crackdown is terminally F-cked Anyway, I am not sure where that is, without replaying, but I'll have to have another go. The graphics with the flying ships is very nice, and I think the moving perspective on platforms is what makes these new gen games so nice, a varied playfield, however, you were plagued with just soooo many enemies. It's the above reason I like Modern Warfare as well, and probably more so, you have some help and it's not all in your hands, even in single player, however, you do need to complete tasks in a somewhat linear pattern to progress. I favor CoD4 so far, just by a fair margin, they both seem very good respectively. Edited June 28, 2009 by Slamman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
