For long distance shooting, the hammerburst doesn't offer that much more range, and is much weaker, and the retro lancer offers no range at all. Oh yes, now I remember Guardian. I rarely played that game type on Gears 2, but I do agree, it's better then Capture the leader. I'm a KOTH and Annex fan, so naturally I also enjoy Team Deathmatch. |
Oh I agree... then again MW3 came out with the same stuff the past 2 games did and broke records upon records... so it's not always bad to change things that people like.
The hammerburst with active reload will put someone down REALLY fast... and the recoil is more like a CoD weapon than what it was in Gears 2, where the recoil was crazy. But yeah, the Lancer is much more accurate than it was in Gears 2, making is even better long range... and since you run so fast in Gears 3, theres always someone kind of close, so you don't really need the hammerburst. The retro is great if a guy with a shotgun is on you, you'll be able to put him down faster than he can you. But yeah, it's useless on distance. Might as well whip out your pistol.
Team deathmatch is fun of course, and I do like anything with rings, but I do miss Guardian. Twas my favorite. Another thing that is lost are shotgun battles where two guys would go 1 on 1. It's so easy to kill people now. It's also too easy to get headshots with shotguns. It used to be a big deal when you popped someones head with a shotgun, but now it happens ALL the time. That's nitpicking though. Great game and tons of fun.
BOOM! FACE KICK!
