Be Excellent To Each Other :: View topic

I still cannae decide what's the better way to wind up the last person I down; bumming them with a smoke grenade ballgag or smashing them to death with their own arm :DD

And hey Alberto, I was kicking your ass at Horde last night

I agree Mr Vision, it was great fun and you were a great wingman

Why thank you, I couldn't have done it without you! :metul:

Are we playing tonight?

Shitty start but we got it together eventually. Then lost it a bit

Who did I kill with the one shot? That was the sweetest.

I'm at my maw's the noo, but will be home to hit you with your own arms in an hour or so

PS. Ipads are a pain in the hoop to type with

Yeah, it was annoying. We were just looking for an AI bot for a quick kill!
Nathan huh? Good bloke, excellent wingman

iPad?! Beatport?!

Mods! Nathan Barley has hacked Wullies account.

A relatively severe new glitch has popped up in Gears of War 3 that not only freezes the system, but also prevents players from entering any game mode thereafter.The problem appears to randomly afflict players that try to load Horde Mode in split screen with two profiles. Users on Epic’s forums began complaining of this problem, and Epic has responded quickly, clearly taking the problem seriously.

An Epic forum representative posted a questionnaire for the afflicted users to take so that Epic can try to pin down exactly what the problem is. After all, finding a single glitch hidden away inside the millions of lines of coding that makes up a game like Gears of War 3 is pretty difficult.

Epic also responded to Joystiq saying, “Getting this resolved is a priority for Epic. We are collecting information internally, sourcing as much as possible from the community and exploring potential fixes. We do not have any recommendations to share with players just yet.”

Assuming this isn’t just a PR line, the bit about “exploring potential fixes” should comfort players, as it seems to indicate they’ve located the bug and are simply figuring out the best way to deal with it.

The 1337 with Wullie has begun! :metul:

Cool, I wasnae sure if it was another bug. Came across quite a few annoying ones this time round

Hi The Vision! Sorry for jumping in on your game of Horde last night, wasn't sure if you were playing with friends or randoms. Starting out on level 50 was bloody tough, but so satisfying to complete. Glad I could make myself useful in the end.

Also: The 1337 with Wullie has begun! :metul:

Ta, I will. Were you playing in complete silence or did you have party chat on?

Anyone playing tonight?

"Sought" doesn't look like it should be a word And I never thought I'd request Gill's opinion on anything

Great games tonight. Thanks to malabar, miss malabar and friend and also alberto for getting me to completion in horde. Wingman games were excellent, for randomly assigned teams they were unbelieveably balanced!

Killing him and Kalmar at the start of the match when they only needed one more kill to get to 15 was brilliant. They must have been fuming.

I've seen this mentioned on a few sites this morning - but there is some bug with multiplayer split screen which can screw up your profile http://www.vg247.com/2011/10/10/gears-o ... /#comments Quote: A relatively severe new glitch has popped up in Gears of War 3 that not only freezes the system, but also prevents players from entering any game mode thereafter.The problem appears to randomly afflict players that try to load Horde Mode in split screen with two profiles.
