Gears Weekend: The Grayson Cup

moar!

I love the stadium art!

Not too excited but I’ll try it

Ithink the people don’t know about the event!!!!

Looks awesome…love the one shot in the pistol and the Thrashball art is amazing.

As long as there aren’t any smokes, it always tends to become a rush and tag. Other than that, I like Tbow Tag.

Don’t take the locust trashball from us, give it to all the fans for free!!!

torque bow tag is fun but ima have to say boom snipes is better bring boom snipes back or just snipers

tbow tag i like it when done legit so this will be good

shame i can’t log on to live atm  all the years it’s been fine then one day it goes all hall 9000….grr

Cool! Can you make Brothers the End a permanent playlist? Its the best one besides TDM

que?? jajajaj tu DAVID? 

oh for the love of….

whats not legit ?

i love that thrashball locus skin why are you gonna take it away

Agreed! Don’t know why they would have taken it away, Especially for these random game types everyone is just playing to get ribbons.

Great !!!

why cant we keep the drone

Hey Epic,

it would be great if a single snub headsot would grant another bullet.
Past events i really enjoyed were Stay Frosty and Know Your Rifle.

Please make Brothers to the End a permanent playlist

entonces el drone trashball, solo es prestado?,, cuando lo van a quitar? 

double xp ploz. Only time it’s worth playing sometimes

Brothers to the end is great, torque bow tag is not. We’re all stranded now is also good. Think it’s more important to sort out the lag and the glitches that are still there though.

Why are they getting rid of the thrashball drone that is the coolest charater yet!!! please make that permenent and get rid of the 20 different cole trains.

I like the playlist mix things up for every one
Like the art clean

Sees “Grayson Cup,” comes looking for Bulletstorm in-jokes.

I’ve spent too much time on Epic games, apparently.

All stranded was very nice. Good to see games get mixed up so it isn’t “Who’s got the biggest party?” match-ups.

Definitely miss brothers to the end. That should be a permanent playlist. Torque-bow tag is okay but gets old fast. I’d also like to be able to use Grinders in beast mode in an expansion or something and have more than just 12 rounds of it.

Stay frosty I gotta admit I loved playing it in a extremely tactical way

True servers have gotten a bit sketchy :/

Bring back GUARDIAN! The end

BRING BACK GET GNASHTY!

Epic needs to make weekend playlist available to all players. Hate it when I can’t play since I don’t have the maps. Don’t wanna buy maps for a dying game.

Never good at torque bow tag but ill be playing it

I want to see some more 2x xp

lol you wouldn’t be saying that if you went and played on PVP again trust me be happy with what we got

The Stay Frosty Playlist was awesome. I want to play that playlist again.

I heard that there were no more dedicated servers. For the moment anyway…that they are down or something?

Why does everyone care so much about brothers to the end? Its just tweaked wingman.

Wish they’ll keep the Thrashball Thron as a permeate player

 a dying game?

pues balla una mierda….. que pasa con los servidores españoles nos emos gatado de media150€  cada español en el juego para que sea practicamente INPOSIBLE jugar en linea con un retardo de asta 5 SEGUNDOS esto es una puta berguenza nos abeis robado en la cara sois unos ladrones que bendeis juegos que no se adactan a la realidad…….————– llebo 10 dias sin jugar en linea .es inposible, sois unos ladrones de guante blanco

Please make a permanent playlist that takes out the scrub guns (sawed off and Retro)and leaves u wit old school weapons

Servers my butt!!  I’m starting to believe there are no servers.

Yeah, GET GNASHTY with teams would be cool.

If the game is truly dying (lol) why would you wanna play anyway? and you can still play TDM etc… but if you want Epic’s support in all the fun times and events that they supply then you gotta help them out by getting the maps.

and before you start saying “i bought the game i should get all tha things” you have access to all the times right now.. it’s the bonus stuff that they are adding in that you don’t get to partake in until you support EPIC and get the maps (season pass is still available)

Its called Alpha

LOL! you must be n00b here !

You mean like the Alpha playlist?  Please know what you’re talking about before u leaves comment.  As a bonus, the Hammerburst moders go away also…

some are better then others but it’s a damn shame that so few understand a gnasher battle??

ONE SHOT, ONE KILL!

WHEN IS GUARDIAN GOING TO BE POSSIBLE FOR A WEEKEND EVENT!-_- O_0

tienes que hacer algo con tu ortografía galleguin.

Because it’s like Team Deathmatch, Wingman style. FAR more people like Team Deathmatch than execution, so it follows that Brothers to the End would be more popular than Wingman. I, for one, LOVE Brothers to the End. Plus, two on two is VERY different from 4 teams of 2.

what about guardian that was kool.oh and maybe the gold retro lancer skin

brothers to the end should be permanent case closed its in high demand.

Agreed

Thrashball *Drone… and I agree

Hard Core Weekend was awesome.. I guess what would be perfect would to have Get Gnashty and be able to run 4-5 man teams.. That would be perfecto..

Please get rid of warzone/execution and split them up so that those of us who prefer execution can get a decent game without having to play bull**** warzone

bring back the boom snipes

consistent gnasher playlist would be awesome

consistent gnasher playlist would be awesome

I have no issue with Epic providing special content to DLC buyers. However, week end events are supposed to be for everyone as the achievement for participating to them is from the original game, not a DLC specific one.

I swear they are not reading these fucking comments. Every fucking week I and I can’t count how many other gears fans put that they should make Brothers to the End a permanent playlist and that they should bring back Guardian. So WTF!!!!!! Epic says they listen to their fans but I haven’t seen them do anything the fans have suggested. Either change some shit or don’t ask people to leave comments about what they thing if your not going to listen. Sincerely – Gearz Fans 

HAHA yep bring back GUARDIAN BEST MODE EVER!!!!

hey do these events or playlists that you test out actually even count towards the socialist achievement and medal? i have played the last 2 and they didn’t even count when i checked the medal stats, since my shit got reset been having problems…

Why must the game change all the time? There are no servers you lie! This reminds me of gears 2 inconsistent trash! Thanks the only game I love is now broken. After over 3000 games played so far in gears 3 I think I know what im talking about. Please return the game to what it was when it launched.

Classic guardian and jacinto as a map, maybe just one of those map where nature is a bitch (like avalanche in gears of war 2). A giant wave comes crashing down the middle of  battlefield and a siren goes off meaning its coming and you’ll have to go into the towers or something but just bring that map back tho.

Need more double exp weekends. And let us know when theyre happening!

this is too short of a game, more respawns like 20 would be better. Still. Get Gnashty was by FAR the greatest gametype of all. Get Gnashty needs to be a permanent playlist. You will probably see the “Members of the Old Guard” finally return to the game. The mere 20,000 max players is pathetic for a GOW game.

I think I speak for all true Gears players out there when I say this. You guys really sold out with GOW3 and I think you owe it to all of us to give us just this one gametype. Alpha isn’t good enough. Get gnashty with parties please.

soooo how and when can u add the “thashball drone” to your permanent arsenal????   just like the xmas weapon skins…u give it and take it away???    thats shitty!!!    p.s.  when are we getting more units for beast???   there are 5 open slots on the various teirs!!!  sooo whats up with that???      ansewers please???   thanx!!

p.s.   anyone got freetime to help a brotha gears playa get the “forshadowing” achievement..and some ribbons!!!   my g.t. is   X73SHANE73X   drop me a message/friend request….im usually on once a day…..p.s. any tips on leveling up quick???  i see people in the 50s on red level and some in the blue’s….im like wtf???  how on the hell??   do people have no life???  or am i missing something???    any pointers wil be appreciated!!!

make the thrashball locusts a earnable character skin
 

make the trashball locusts a earnable character skin

Bring guardian back

Please do not take thrashball drone away from us…. I love your weekends events… It’s good to have something different some time… ho and a 2xp would be nice.. thanx

Let’s keep the new skin permanent. It looks awesome and there is no reason to get rid of it.

Let’s keep the new skin permanent. It looks awesome and there is no reason to get rid of it.

I also wish we could keep our map packs bought in prev gears… RB style. I’m getting tired of repurchasing the same maps from the previous 2 gears I’ve already owned. I know you guys update them and we did get a few for free but I’m missing some of the old MP maps we had before. I really don’t want to have to switch back and forth between games. Wish we could enjoy all of gears 3′s awesome game modes in maps we’ve purchased in the past anyways. No need to update them. Just give us what we paid for. I always thought M$ was the money hungry ones but out of my season pass, I’ve only gotten maps that were given for free a few weeks later, some fortifications for hoard that were already on disc, some recycled maps from prev titles and lucky a bit of new stuff like the Raam’s shadow and a few new maps. Doesnt feel like I got my full value out of the pass. Hopefully the last piece of DLC will be worth it. Oh and finally, skin packs for sale?!!? I know there are some people dim enough to purchase these but even COD has a vast variety of skins for free. Son, I am disappoint.

people have no life dude…..

boomsnipes……
right on

For the people complaining about the servers they are still there but if you don’t have the fenix rising pack you will play on a player host not a server.

before of anything. URGENT!!!! PLS. FIX THE F**ING LAG.  THERE’S TOO MUCH. FIX THE LAG

Two WORDS…. ‘STAY FROSTY’. I like this game type. A LOT of the other game types seem so fast paced. This one kinda slows things down a bit and encourages some patience and team work. I like the different FEEL of this specific game type and would LOVE to see this one stay on the list. It’s unlike the rest of the game types and that ALONE makes this one unique.

you have pissed me off EPIC Games saying they are dedicated servers when we buy fenix rising only ranked are dedicated thats fucking stupid !!! the game is gears 2 all over again ! im going back to gears 1 kiss my ass !

Go play gears 2 insted. Retro and saw off is what makes this game more interesting. If your not able to adapted that just means you suck.

Bro rank dont have dedicated servers ither. Thats all i play. Its back to gears 2 type of game. If your team sont got host, good luck winning that match.

Bull shit. I dont have the dedicated servers. N i play all the time in rank matches vs people that clearly purchase them because there numbers are green n red. Now imagine they pay for it n i did not so why are we n the same match. Plus its stupid i bet they cant even split the players up. Imagin if not enought people get the phenix rising bs. Then that would mean that your only goin to be stuck playing with a small amount of people. If anything they should have dedicated. Servers for everyone. Its enough having to pay for internent servis plus a gold account. N now you gota pay for dedicated servers. Thats plain stupid.

Bring back some of the maps in gears 2 like JACINTO.

Please for the love of god separate warzone and execution

Stay f’n frosty

100% Agree!!! Bring back Guardian!Delete CTL !!! Here in Germany we are all waiting for it ! Best Mode in GoW2 !

I would like to see epic bring in Carlos as a playable chacater and also a dlc like Raams shadow but with skorge. what could better then weilding a double sided chainsaw staff. if you could kindly fix a few things in versus too that would be great. I’m tiered of going against teams who are re-upping, kill stealing, and using mods. since the re-up my k/d ratio went from 0.8 to 0.6. i was working on getting it to 1.0 but thats not gonna happen any time soon

the game is the best of xbox <3 and the best of the wold

you guys can you PLEASE , FIX THE NEW MAP ROTATION , I HAVE PLAYED 1 NEW MAP IN 4 DAYS ! After I stopped playing last week because I only got to play 3 maps the whole week , this is ridiculous . We love gears and epic, so come  on guys , seriously , its like I bought the season pass for nothing , Even the 1st night I downloaded it three hours I stayed up and played, didnt play 1 . Its like april fools . I would really like to play new maps, I paid for them . No its not my servers or nat type either…. almost everyone has the same problem

Glad to see Torque Bow Tag back.  Should make the Thrashball Drone permanent though for playing during one of the last two special events.  He’s a cool dude, and the Locust need more skins anyway.

EVERYONE IS SCARED TO SHOTTY BATTLE N IF THEY ARENT THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO DO IT PROPERLY. SECONDLY EXECUTION IS OBVIOUSLY THE GREATEST ITS WAS THE MOST PLAYED GAME MODE BEFORE GEARS 3, AND THE RESASON WHY PEOPLE DONT PLAY IT AS MUCH ANYMORE IS THAT THERES TONS OF SCRUBS JUST STARTED PLAYING GEARS, AND THEY LOVE TO USE THEIR LANCERS AND SIT IN A CORNER, WHICH IS NOT WAT GOW IS ABOUT .ITS ABOUT GNASHERS PLAIN N SIMPLE

ALPHA EXECUTION IS GREAT. EXECUTION  IS OBVIOUSLY THE GREATEST IT WAS THE MOST PLAYED GAME MODE
BEFORE GEARS 3, AND THE RESASON WHY PEOPLE DONT PLAY IT AS MUCH ANYMORE
IS THAT THERES TONS OF SCRUBS JUST STARTED PLAYING GEARS, AND THEY LOVE
TO USE THEIR LANCERS AND SIT IN A CORNER, WHICH IS NOT WHAT GOW IS ABOUT
.ITS ABOUT GNASHERS PLAIN N SIMPLE

That’s why they added in the players choice playlist, so that people who as of yet haven’t bought the fenix rising pack can still use the dedicated servers.

There should be a permanent torque bow and sniper playlist. Would be very popular with Gears 1 Gearheads and newbies alike.

Torque bow tag, this is my rifle, cluckshot (it’s so great), boomsnipe, etc… are better than brothers to the end or we’re all stranded now so if you could continue in this way it would be great Epic  & thanks for all your work GOW3 is the best game in the world 

Hi Epic Games I’m A Big Fan Of Epic I Love Gears Of War 1,2, and, 3 I’m Ranking 10 In The World 2 days ago I went to play gears of war 3 and for some reason I could Play Gears it only let my stay on local I think I’m banned for some reson I never did noting wrong I now people who got banned for moding there rank I’m 100% Legit I Love gears to much to hake anything from it I’m a green 51 know I cant play gears and that’s realy sad I buy the new maps and stuff and know I cant play it My Gamer Tag is. 
x TattedLoose Can You Pleas Look At It Again It Had to be a miss under standing I don’t want to lose my ranking on the leader bored hope to hear from you soon epic I realy want to play gears I’m #1Fan.

  I Made A New one and the same thing haped to that one the gamer tag is   x Pro Gear z   pleas epic i cant play gears 3 on my xbox no more i never did noting wrong

please don’t take back the trashball drone!!!! i love it and i think we all deserve it!!!!

please bring back more maps from gears1&2 specially day one

Don’t be awful.

yeah make trashball locust a earnable character skin

make trashball locust an aernable character skin

I agree. I dont always have the extra money to buy DLC.  It sucks not being able to work towards an achievement available from the original game purchase.  I don’t have a problem with offering DLC or perks associated with DLC.

ok gears events are few and almost impossle to earn the onyx for… i have almost ever onyx except for war supporter and hammerburst.. yeah i play to much… but the grayson cup was givin to me for playing horde not even playing the grayson… i did play it afterwards but the issues you have with your game are getting to be just plain dumb….  lag all the time ( dont say its my net either because i download a over 17mb per sec and if i can play he new starswars on my pc with no lag i should be able to play xbox live on it with no problems) i dont have the icons pop up for buying/repairing things anymore, you know the little “Y” with the cost… playing on horde and losing a wave then restarting from that wave and only one person is alive and rest are dead and cant buy back in… this isnt my system.. ive played on 12 different systems and it doesn work on any, the funny thing is if i play split screen the other peeps works and ine still doesnt…. also used differnt hard copies/ game discs all the same… there are many others such as freezing in the middle of things and not saving then zeroing out peeps stuff… which has happened to me.  if you ask me it should be called CIPE games not EPIC cause they are not worthy of the term of that word when it comes to gears of war3 …

i agree with u m8 stay frosty was awesome ! i would like to play it again

They should do more experimantal modifications with other weapons maybe something with the saw-off shotgun ( much faster reload maybe and more range ) that would be a great boost for the gun

I agree. I did buy season pass and i did save some money on the DLC. Iand i think that GOW3 is not a dying game and it will have my support to the end

I couldn’t agree more. Bring back Gnasher only playlists. If I wanted to use rifles I would lower my standards and play CoD

Bring back Stay Frosty whit one shot snub 

I wish it was true my best friend. we had a big gears of war 2 clan paying only guardian, that was the best time online. Now nobody play gears 2 anymore, all focused on gears 3, a big dissapointment it is. Now we never play together exept for those stupid achievements. bring back guardian and quick!

Hes right! Epic cant get it threw there small heads.! hurry its only a matter of time!

GET RID OF SAWED OFF

I loved get gnashered or whatever, I love brothers to the end, come out with like a white weapon skin and new skins to unlock, cause most of the skins are getting boring…

epic game yall suck , first the overpower (sawn-off, retrolancer, hammerburst, lancer) second the reach with the mentall kick is rediculous third if you buy the game it aint enough u have to buy the new map to have a good quality game that is just som BS!!!

when the game came out yall had over million people playin this game everyday and now its just sad the true die hearts who made the game popular dont play it because yall keep changing the powers of the gun put a freakin sawd off in the game now every body just camps en keep lancerin people this aint call of duty but if you be changin thre game to be like call of duty people are going to play call of duty but keep makin changes and screwin the game up and we will se how manny people plays this game in 6 month like 300 worldwide
