Gears of War 2 Multiplayer news
Still a bit unconfirmed but seems like some details have been leaking out on the net slowly about Gears of War 2 Multiplayer. The news seems to be coming out from a upcoming video game magazine that comes out in the UK for the Xbox 360. They seem to give away some information about new multiplayer maps for Gears of War 2 and potentially multiplayer game modes.
This is still a bit unconfirmed and keep a close eye on our blog as we try to get down to the bottom of this.
Here is some of the information we have heard so far:
- Five vs. Five online Multiplayer
- Halo 3 style match making system
- Might be some respawing game modes.
Multiplayer game modes that might show up in Gears of War 2:
Guardian game mode:
A remade version of Gears’ Assassination game mode where the objective is still to kill the other team’s leader, but players keep respawning as long as their leader is alive. Opponents’ leader will be marked on the HUD to keep the game moving along.
Wingman game mode:
You and a buddy team up, sharing a single character model in this five teams of two game mode.
Meatflag game mode:
A CTF-style mode where the “flag” is actually an AI-controlled player who’ll wander the map and attempt to kill anyone who gets near. To “capture” him, you’ll have to first down, then escort him as a meatshield all the way back to your base, all while your opponents are trying to kill you and shoot at the “flag”. Because, if shot at enough, your meatshield flag will break free, go berserk and deal out the pain. Respawning will be featured in this game mode as well as stats for the amount of kills the AI-controlled flag dished out.
Stay tuned as more information comes out.
