Stupid question> If you hit the reload perfectly in multiplayer, do you get the same "power up" as you do in the campaign mode? I was always assuming no, but just wanted to confirm.

Yes, you do but it's only temporary I think. I think it lasts as long as it flashes.

Had a good time exploring some of those maps for the first time. I need to set up some local multiplayer action to find all the weapons and get my bearings straight.

we got maps - I will link to the post in a little bit (but someone will probably beat me to the punch).

I posted them on page 22 or 23.

Yep, I got them -

 

[MrPhoenix]

Sorry Phoenix . Your repeated screaming into the mic tonight was giving me a headache.GB the mute function.

Indeed. I put him on mute early in the match on Friday night.

You're being a real tool about this, you know that?

I could be wrong but I think it lasts until you use that ammo.

Nope ... it lasts only for a short time. The "new" ammo is at the end of the clip and will flash while hot.

Chris actually has this tagged on his super-cool page he set up for FBG GoW activities. My suggestion would be to add a second link on his page, title it FBG Gamertags and keep the first post in this thread updated. Since nilloc has been shouldering the burden thus far with keeping the thread active, if he'd PM you with any additions, we'd likely be able to keep everything current.

No prob. It just drives me crazy when noobs post their tags in the "other" threads, so I keep track the best I can and post them here.We could probably put them in the league thread and just let this thread die.

I added a link to the first post on this page titled FBG Gamertags.

Did you add the link for the League Trading Block yet?

Where's that at? Can captain's trade themselves?

 

[orcinus]

Keep checking ... it's there. If, for some reason, you don't find it, I'd say you should probably start another one.

I saw a commercial for this last night, looks awesome, Can anyone tell me what song is playing during the commercial? Thanks!Nevermind I figured it out, It's Gary Jules - Mad World, originally by Tears for Fears. Fits perfect for that commercial.

Saw this commercial during football yesterday, it's a great ad! Actually made me think about going out and getting a 360 so I could play the game. (Then my good, cheap sense came back to me.)

Also thought it was an awesome ad, thought the game looked amazing, and am admittedly tempted to pick one up based on this alone.

Just got done reading the IGN review and I am now REALLY considering it.I was planning on waiting until after Xmas to pick up a Wii once the hype dies down (I'm a huge Zelda fan) but now I'm considering taking the plunge now for a 360, especially since the rumor is they have no intention to drop the price upon release of the P3 so no point in waiting for a 360.

I caved last night. Ran into Bestbuy like 10 minutes before they closed and picked up the premium system, extra controller, battery pack, Live subscription, GoW & Lego Starwars. Got a decent deal and an extra like $10 bucks off because it took forever to check out after closing time with their computers for some reason.Hooked it up and played co-op until 5 this morning. This game is freaking sweet! Will setup up my Live subscription after football today. Please take it easy on me since you guys have a few days headstart on me.

So its a month later and I finally setup my damn Live subscription last night. Had some technical difficulties that were eventually solved but enough of the crappy details. So I am way behind here and now a noob to online fighting but add me to the 1st post list of gamer tags:Bandit Buckna I look forward to people pwning me.

Mini-Reunion tonight.

Tango and Swillhole have returned to the Gears, with JTG possibly making a late visit.

Fine by me. Guy acts like I ####ed his mother and sister in a three-way around me.

 

[MrPhoenix]

Nilloc playing the Gears?

Man, three players from the glory days and I'm getting cranky again. Just like old times. Hell, Herbal has assumed the title of "Jackass Host" in Bruce's absence.

Come on down and bring the kids for some good ol' Charlestown Chiefs hockey!

 

[Schmegma]

Maybe later. Not drunk enough yet. Gonna go play some poker and drink some beer.

 

[KGB]

Tonight was awesome guys.

Great having a full FBG game again. We had a jackass host, a Phoenix meltdown, and an all-around good run. Just like old times.
