Gears & Beers Fridays

Thanks for the games last night guys. It was a humbling experience, but fun none-the-less.

I played terrible last night. That's what I get for drinking BEFORE gearsnbeers starts.

Good games last night!

I drank too much. My 3 straight games with 0 kills is proof of that.

I had fun. I always have fun. Even when I'm yelling about my shotgun bouncing off people's shoulders.

Pow pow pow pow

Shut up, jerk.

Just a reminder that new DLC drops on Tuesday. Make sure everyone is ready for new maps this weekend. If we're lucky, we'll only get to play on Rustlung 25% of the time

The new DLC is 238MB or so, and didn't take too long to download this morning before work.

Will be interesting to shoot people in new places

Got to futz around on a couple of the new ones this morning (also before work) and they were HUGE. I'd be up to get a full party of Recruit Claytons/Savage Marauders and win some achieve....er I mean matches.

Yeah, I'd like to try to get those achievements, also.

I thought getting all 132 ribbons was going to be nigh impossible, but it turns out I've already got the hardest ones. I only need 2 more (both are Kantus related).

For some reason, multiplayer wasn't working for me today. It was giving me an error about "must be in an Xbox Live compatible party" or some mumbo jumbo. Anyone else having that issue?

I've checked out all the new maps on Horde, since I couldn't play online. They seem cool, but you can't tell how something is going to play until you actual play on it.

See ya on Friday.
(or earlier for some achievement hunting)

Usually I play gears and beers with just a bit whiskey or some such and stay sober throughout. I plan on changing that tomorrow. Tomorrow I shall quaff as my icon quaffs.

Not sure if I will be able to be online tomorrow night. Have an outing with the wife to attend.

Can't wait to get online tomorrow and play one of the new maps. Then, have Epic's awesome "random map number jumber emulator" bring up Overpass and Rustlung over and over.

I'd like to jump on early and see if we can get a 5man squad going to try to get the Clayton/Marauder achievements.

Yeah, and the problem I stayed earlier about not being able to play online? That's noted as an issue by Epic.

Oh, and Epic has stated that they are having issues with the servers. Lag and "cat walking in the Matrix" issues. They're working on it.

P.S. And matchmaking might be a little bunged, right now.

Other than all that stuff, let's rock!

The Double!

Kaboom!

It's almost time, gentlemen...

Hey I'll be on for a bit until I head to watch underworld at 10 than after the movie ill be back on, hope to play some with everyone.

Had a lot of fun tonight guys

Awesome time, as usual. My favorite round of the night was toward the end when I popped 4 heads out of 5 in a Warzone match. I was feelin the sniper rifle at the end, there. Or we were all really drunk and the other team was standing still more? Either way, I FELT AWESOME!

FTFY

Good times last night folks. Well, except that part where someone wasn't using Recruit Clayton.

Great games and thanks for the laughs. Haven't laughed like that in a long time!

Your homework for the week is to learn to play. Suckers.

You managed to lose it within moments of joining as well.

Sounds like I missed out on good times then.

I can't remember most of it but the Siri requests were pretty out there!

I think it was the rabbit-punches of Siri, then Hickle making fun of me for calling Oddjob "Shortround", then Peaceful repeatedly giving Hickle his homework to see Clerks.

That reminds me, I need to find a metal foundry.

I kept laughing because I was thinking of what his battlecry at the start of the match would be. "Okey Dokey Mr. Jones"

Who wants to get some Recruit Clayton/Marauder achievements today? Who wants to go through some Beast mode in the new maps today? Who wNts to play some Horde? Who wants to touch me?

Ooo, how late are you thinking? I have to pack for a trip, but once that is done I would love to get some Gears in, since I will miss Friday again.

I usually stay up til around 2-4 EST, so I'll be on.
