Gears of War 2 Hands-On - Jun 26, 2008 02:25
My Fucking God.... I think I came

So far 4 game modes have been confirmed for the multiplayer: Warzone, Meatflag, Guardian, and Wingman. 12 Maps will ship with the games multiplayer. The multiplayer will now be 10 instead of 8 players.

Meatflag sounds really interesting. The flag is an A.I. character from the campaign who trys to resist.

Wingman is basically Team Deathmatch with 5 teams of 2.

Guardian is once again a 5 on 5 deathmatch, but with 1 player on each team assigned to be the " Guardian" . As long as he' s alive, your team respawns. Sounds similar to the VIP mode in Gears 1.
And of course Warzone is the same 5 on 5 deathmatch like it was in Gears 1.

Flamethrowers are now in, as well as a party system and the ability to veto maps. Also Screen Cap tools.

I must say, the multiplayer looks gorgeous, much like Torrs mom(allegedly ), so Im positively foaming at the mouth for some more campaign footage. The multiplayer should be much improved now with a party system and I love the concept of the " Wingman" gametype.

This sounds fun I wish other games had this as well.

You can do it in the Halo games, but its not really that intense or strategic due to the respawn system and play style.
