Yaaaaa! but I have the prob with #1 :(Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:06 AM
Sweet.. getting that 100 still going to take a long ass time.. good news that there is action being taken against the lvl 100 cheaters!!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:10 AM
i'm at 37 already, but imma see if i can't get close to 50 this weekend, nice can't waitThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:22 AM
Time to add on my 50Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:24 AM
Rank 100 is beast :D Talk about time consuming but its worth itThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:27 AM
I'll be on... only if I can find a match. I was playing earlier and was searching for ten minutes. I just gave up and went and played something else.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:29 AM
Sweet! Can't wait.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:33 AM
5PM EST Does anyone know what time that is UK wise? We are GMT if that helps? CheersThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:34 AM
Sweet. Normally I wouldn't give a rat's ass about Gears 2 mp but the past few weeks have been really good. It doesn't take me 15 min to find a match. Not its like 7 secondsThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:42 AM
screw double exp i wanna see the connection problems and lag switching eliminated. i haven't played a legit match in months!!!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:04 AM
I've never played Gears of War 2 and only played the first gears for the single player but the thing that I'm wondering is, why does that max out level go to 100? that's a bit far and alot of exp to be gained.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:49 AM
cool.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:53 AM
They should fix the laggy, glitch-ridden multiplayer first.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:53 AM
I hope to be there playing it this weekendThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 12:59 AM
Woooooooo!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:03 AM
oh man.. F me! I'll be in a clinical research study. They have internet hook-ups but their connection is so bad that it's nearly impossible to play. Unless of course you just run around holding the B button and just hope to God you chainsaw someone.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:08 AM
Didn't see this coming, now I must play me some gears!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:09 AM
Good news Time to kick on toward Rank 50 5pm EST is 10pm GMT Still lots of fake 100's onlineThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:09 AM
I can't believe that Epic keeps making crappy new maps and giving us new achievements and double XP when their game is still a beta. It's completely ridiculous, fix the damn game first.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:19 AM
damn weekend hike!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:13 AM
Awesome. This train runs on time! (Hopefully..)Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:29 AM
I might actually play online this weekend, I've got plenty of online achievements to get and the like.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:17 AM
i just used a calculator and getting the 6.8 million points will take just over 39,000 kills if you were to get all 175 pts...Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:35 AM
Cool ! I'll be on this weekend :)Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:36 AM
better play a lot of annex lolThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:33 AM
Cool, been playing it a fair bit over the last few weeks, shall have to organise a game with a few mates on the weekendThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:40 AM
@ 15: That's 10pm your time. Having close friends from the UK area pays off =) Hopefully I'll get my level 50 achievement by this weekend, I'm only level 36.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:52 AM
might be an opportunity for me to get the 3 KOTH achievementThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 02:14 AM
WICKED i get an average of 1,500 points a game. If my maths r right IM HAPPY :DThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 02:16 AM
(CONTINUED) IM GONNA GET BOUT 3,000 POINTS PER GAME... NICE. THX EPIC GAMESThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 02:26 AM
sweet. hopefully if the game isnt laggy then i'll get a good amount of kills. i just reached the 25th rank today. so if i play on the weekend hopefully i'll be up to 40. which means im gonna have to start playing on the Snowblind Maps. just to be sure i get the lvl 50 achievement later in the course of my ranking. sucks its 6 million XP though!!! i wouldnt doubt if on GoW3 rankings takes 5 times longer than that!!!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 02:59 AM
Why do so many people moan about lag so much? Im from the UK and i will admit it's not perfect at all, but some of you make it sound like it's all the time. On topic double XP is cool im 44 so i'l try for level 50 this weekend.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:11 AM
gears 2 multiplayer sucks huge balls. gears 1 was fine. if its not broken dont try and fix it!!!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:12 AM
haven't played Gears 2 in months... is it possible to rank on the maps game was shipped with, or do you have to buy one or all of the DLC?Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:16 AM
Sweet, going to get as close to 50 as posible. Currently rank 37.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:31 AM
this are great news :)Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:28 AM
Well I hit lv 25 last night so maybe I can work my way through a good chunk of the next 25 over the weekend...probably not though!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:59 AM
FINALLY!!!!!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:57 AM
Some achievements just are ridiculous... this is one great example! :-/Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 04:03 AM
This will make getting to level 25 a breeze. I got to level 15 in about 2 hours of play. So another 2 hours would take me to around 30 with Double XP.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:44 AM
i'm only on level 8... but i will be working my ass of this weekend to get to 50......... is that even possible?Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 04:04 AM
This will be fun. Too bad my 360 is in the mail. =(Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 04:14 AM
A lot of people have cheated for their wings, makes it hard to feel any sense of pride or point in getting to lvl 100! They should be dealt with!!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 04:29 AM
at #50 they wereThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 04:48 AM
@ #51 quite a few still havn't been dealt with, despite action been taken...Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:06 AM
I went in to a few matches yesterday and there are still lvl glitched lvl 100's. I take no notice really ALL lvl 100's ive played against either quit or are really really bad.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:16 AM
Looks like i will be staying up most of the night this weekend playing gears 2.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:15 AM
yaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:34 AM
Why do they think adding double xp will bring people back to such an awful and poorly made game? Its like adding content to a game that came out on release, because no one plays it anymore.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:30 AM
This sounds sweet although EPIC most definitely needs to address the lag and glitching especially if they keep wanting your money every two months for some new maps.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:36 AM
And as for people complaining about glitchers being dealt with, Microsoft will never get everyone, there are far too many Xbox Live users to do it. I mean, my old credit card is still in their system and it cant be used, yet when my Xbox Live expired I didn't lose any of my Gold privelages, and its been like that a month now without me paying a thing. They will NEVER be able to determine every glitcher or hacker w/e. I don't know wether or not if your active a lot online affects this.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:42 AM
lol this sucks, I'm busy all weekend :( Ah well, good to hear they will be doing this again in the future.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:43 AM
sweet, just in time for my return from Uni this saturday!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:30 AM
I'm pleased with this - looking forward to the weekend.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:40 AM
#49 i know it sucks so much i hate RROD and my gold trial is running out on the 28thThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:50 AM
too bad i have a life and cant join you lot!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 05:51 AM
Can someone give me an Australian time for the start of it? ~BryceThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 06:02 AM
Thhhhank Gooooooooooood, I'm stuck at 26....Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 06:11 AM
you know ive bounced up to a big ol' level 5 in this so maybe ill shoot a little higher this weekend...Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 06:21 AM
@17 they already fixed the lag switch problemThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 06:26 AM
im gonna be out of town this weekend =(Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 06:34 AM
Good thing I'm amazing at this game! :)Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 06:41 AM
All you gota do is play Guadian you only lose like 10% of ur pints and thats why im rank 82!!!!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 06:47 AM
Can't wait for this, im a level 42 and should be able to get really close to 50 by the end of the weekend. If not higher!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 06:50 AM
Kant wait for this... gota tell the girlfriend to fuck off lol. rank 33 atm should easily be able to bounce to rank 40 woopThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 07:04 AM

Gonna play some Gears 2 this weekend :)Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 07:39 AM
awsome! but i got an exam on monday so i cant play alot :(Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 07:56 AM
Ooo this just might give me the motavation to get myself and some mates off COD and back onto Gears Of War for the weekend. Unluck #77 my first exam isnt untill thursday of next week :)Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 07:52 AM
About time it is still going to take a hell of a long time. People complain far too much about lag i am in Australia and i never seem to come across any other Aussies and always get put into a game with Americans or Europeans which is kind of strange and i get bad feedback if i finish with more kills whats that about?Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 07:33 AM
I said to a friend only the other day if there isn't going to be no double xp weekends then i would never go for 100 but looks like EPIC proved me wrong and looks like level 100 will be mine one dayThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 08:31 AM
omg I am going to Rank up like 30 timesThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 08:38 AM
ive been stuck on 49 for ages ive just not had the motivation to play it really so this will make it a damn bit easier :PThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 08:43 AM
ive got an exam on monday though :(Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 08:35 AM
Madser, just a pitty I'm the worst gears player in the world I'll play it all weekend prob only get up a couple of digitsThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 08:39 AM
YYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 08:47 AM
No amount of double xp is gonna makeup for laggy games where the region filter just seems to fail. I cry for gears because it is a good game. When it dosen't mega lag.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 08:58 AM
How much is this going to cost me? You EPIC bastards.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 09:06 AM
Time to blow the dust off my copy of Gears!!!! :)Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 09:20 AM
Just my luck, I have the 3 rings, and when I hear this,makes me wanna go buy a new xbox just to rank up. Thanks a lot EPICThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 09:31 AM

ill be pulling all nighters this weekend!!!Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 01:46 PM
6 mill getting it all this weekendThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 02:06 PM
I agree with comment #17 the game is not worth playing if they don't fix the connections. so double weekend is a no go for me unfortunitly. can hard run for 3 secs with out teleporting on getting killed randomly even thought there is no one around me. they should of keep to the orginal way from gears one and allow people to host their games themselves. thats all i have to say on that matter.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 02:27 PM
sweetThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:02 PM
Comment #25 ^Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:10 PM
@79 We play later at night/early morning (We're Canadian/Californian my clanmates) so we end up getting into Europe players games which tend to be pretty laggy for us. But at least they don't parade around like they're better than us as much as the American whiners do. On-topic, I'm at 38 and work all weekend so I'll miss this one, but I'll be keeping an eye out for the next for sure.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 03:24 PM
Whoa site has it wrong. It starts at 5 AM eastern on Gears site.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 06:02 PM
bad ass cant waitThursday, May 14, 2009 @ 09:05 PM

sure took them a long time to do what others have started. It's not surprising it took them this long to decided to do this.Thursday, May 14, 2009 @ 11:14 PM
its 5AM not PM,,,, 9AM in UKFriday, May 15, 2009 @ 01:24 PM

Thanks X360A for the info!Friday, May 15, 2009 @ 06:13 PM
