Jan 10th 2012 1:14PM (Joystiq)I like this, even though I'm not a fan of CoD. I hope other multiplayer games such as Gears Of War 3 are planning something similar, buying it is optional and for the long-time fans it's nice to keep getting fresh new content every once in a while. As long as the content is good & not just small cosmetic skin packs.

Raam's Shadow DLC showcased in latest Gears of War 3 screens
Dec 8th 2011 5:57PM (Joystiq)I get what you're saying, but fortunately for you there are games with multiplayer that suit your playstyle better. Gears online has always been about the Gnasher, even if it initially wasn't EPIC's intention. It would be betrayal to their loyal fans if they made the gun useless in Gears 3.
You are wrong if you think Gears is mindless though, it's far from it. Teamwork does give an advantage, but only when you're playing on a high level, it is definitely not needed if you're just playing solo against randoms. I prefer the latter because I prefer to play solo in multiplayer. Believe it or not, but Gears can get pretty tactical. It's not just mindless shooting around, there is much more to it than that.
Gears is pretty much the only game I know with this kind of playstyle multiplayer wise. Which is why I think it should stay this way, and not change so that some people enjoy it better.

Dec 8th 2011 1:53PM (Joystiq)It really doesn't one-shot-kill at ridiculous ranges though, so my guess is you're either lagging or exaggerating.
The Gnasher is why so many people love Gears multiplayer in the first place, it's supposed to have a prominent role, even in Gears 3.
