ORIGINAL 1.0: No more clunky movement, no useless shotguns, no stopping power AND MORE.
Gears of War 2 plays like a true classic now!
UPDATED 1.1: SUPERIOR Bot AI over 1.0 release, Graphical changes ACTUALLY implemented due to typos being fixed, even more weapon balancing.
1.2 (Separate Download): Removed Motion blur, Depth of Field. Friendly health in Campaign moderately increased. Movement speed slightly reduced but still faster than Gears 2 vanilla. Slight bot ai tweaks all around but especially to bot snipers making them a bit less accurate but faster on pulling trigger.
DETAILED CHANGES:
- Campaign difficulty [damage/health scaling] reworked for consistent challenge with less spikes. Friendlies and enemies go down more often instead of dying which emphasizes revives for both sides
- Bots in SP & MP [react faster/more accurate/revive faster]. They also beast with power weapons, shoot from further away and aren't scared of using shotguns
- +20% movement speed to make the game faster paced and less "Gears of Fat A**"
- Removed stopping power to encourage rushdowns
- Shotguns are stronger, faster and more accurate thus a worthy rival to the vicious Lancer
- Lancer nerfs, Hammerburst buffs, Boomers/Torques receive ammo from ammo boxes and more
- Draw distance, shadows and blood (minorly) increased
- Motion Blur, Depth of Field removed
- Skips all startup logos for quick main menu access
- Matches start in 5 seconds
