Codessss *w*
Level 43 atm, want to hit 50 this weekend so I can use Hoffman.[/QUOTE]
Can you ask him to grab me one also? I would love him forever.
[QUOTE=Hunterdnrc;32630890]Here's the poster I got from SDCC, I thought it was pretty neat. :dance:

I got one too, but it was from this month's OXM.

Still a sick poster though.

I'll do my best, I'm sure he'll agree to.
[QUOTE=Troll?;32637523]I really don't see how the DBS is a problem. I've never had trouble with it, the only time I get killed by it is when I'm using the gnasher. People who complain about that cock-blocker-shotgun just don't know how to use their bloody rifles.[/QUOTE]
Try explaining that to them. They're ignorant as hell. I explain time after time and they call me a troll for it.

Because people will always give you the chance to down them with a rifle.
You guys always say the rifles are it's hard counter but the game just doesn't work like that, there's cover [i]everywhere[/i] and the only way you'll kill a DBS user is if you can predict what they'll try to do (bounce on that wall over there, jump over that wall etc.) and blast them away beforehand with your own DBS/well-aimed gnasher shot.

Yeah, it's surprisingly hard to down someone with the rifle. There was this guy who was wall-bouncing around with a shotgun, and he wasn't even shooting me. He was just wallbouncing and dodge rolling like crazy and I couldn't hit him.
I think epic secretly boosted the Gnasher range, because it's downing from a longer distance. I was barely damaged when I walked past the wall and got into cover, I aim my gun out, and I get downed from at least 15 feet away when I barely got hit. Happened twice, both in different matches.

Yeah, I've been hearing people talk about insane range on the Gnasher lately. They probably made it the long range shotgun in contrast to the SOS.
I really really like Clay Carmines multiplayer dialogue. I mean when he says like "[I][B][U]YEEEEEEAHHH THAT'S WHAT I LIVE FOR.[/U][/B][/I]" or "[B][I][U]I LOVE THAT NOISE.[/U][/I][/B]"
Just awesome.

I think that is a bad decision. Making the gnasher the AR it was in gears 2 just to counter the DBS? No, please. Just decrease the range of the DBS, don't make EVERYBODY suffer just because of people complaining about the DBS!

I love carmine. It's just that.. ugh, his lines are really repetitive and he didn't play much of a role. I'm more angry about epic doing that than anything else in the game. It just annoys me.

What pissed me off the most was when [sp] you meet up with hoffman, and have to go save anya and sam, then they tell you that jace and carmine are on their way, then jace comes back to drive the truck and carmine just FUCKING VANISHES FOR 90% OF THE GAME AND NOBODY NOTICES, it wouldn't have even been so bad if they actually fucking said something about it, like "oh carmines off doing this" but nope, he's just gone[/sp]
Just finished the game, fucking awesome that was. Pretty much one of the best trilogy game series out there
[i]Halo Series[/i].
[QUOTE=Viorotica;32643648][i]Halo Series[/i].[/QUOTE]
Both series' are really good. Halo is good for the in-dept campaign. I just hate that [sp] they literally killed off ALL the main characters in reach. It was a really dumb thing to do, because you barely got used to them and bam, they die off one by one[/sp]
Back on topic.. Yeah, carmine DESERVES a LOT more lines. I also heard D. Carmine was going to be DLC. If they put him as DLC w/o putting some story about him.. like a campaign add-on, I'll be pissed.
One thing I would love is explaining where C. Carmine went off to, and he ended up finding D. Carmine being attacked by locust or some shit. Basically, have Clay find D. Carmine or somethin' to that degree. Would hit 2 birds with 1 stone.
Well Carmine was with Baird and Cole apparently when they were getting reinforcements for the final assault apparently, so it could be Cole, Baird, C. Carmine, and D. Carmine in a squad.
I found Kat's death funny, it was stupidly quick.

I would buy the shit out of that.

IMO, that wouldn't work since they didn't mention D carmine at all. I think they should just work from "Where the fuck did carmine go?", because EVERYBODY came back 'cept carmine. They could go with.. He got seperated from the group, or went out on his own to find something and stumbled upon his brother..
I have no idea tbh, your idea is better than mine but I just want to know where carmine went and what's goin on with D carmine.

They didn't mention C Carmine at all either. Like seriously, I think his name is spoken twice throughout the entire campaign. If he wouldn't have been promoted beforehand, him being a Carmine would basically be an easter egg/trivia.

Besides it's not like they'd get a chance to bring up D Carmine, he could have just been with the forces storming the beach or something.

Actually they mentioned C. Carmine in Gears 2 twice. The first time being B. Carmine saying that all 3 of his brothers were COG soldiers, the 2nd time was reading B. Carmine's COG tag and it had a note for "Clay". They never ONCE talked about D. Carmine other than he was one of B. Carmine's brothers. Hell we don't even know officially if it really is "D." Carmine (though most likely it will be due to the ABC order their names went in)

True, but in the actual game he was in, he was mentioned even less than in Gears 2.
Speaking of Gears, I got an extra code for the 5-Pack for the weapons from Jack In The Box. If anyone has anything to trade, or they think they deserve it the most, feel free to PM me.

For everyone else, stick around. I'm gonna keep buying the drinks for as long as the competition goes (because that $5000 dollar shopping spree at Gamestop would be awesome) so I'll probably have a few more codes to give out before the contest is over.

I was talking to someone about his other brother a while ago, they said that he was said to have died somewhere outside the games.

No. Literally nothing is know about him other than the fact that he has existed at one point. D. Carmine is probably his name but we don't even know that for sure.

It might be explained in some of that campaign dlc they promised, a long with every other unanswered plot piece they didn't explain.

Yeah. Basically we're gonna have to pay for the answers we thought we were getting in the original game.
Speaking of which that list of DLC maps and characters a few pages back seems to be credible. Three of the characters it named and three of the maps it named are now confirmed as DLC, and there are a bunch of other confirmed ones on there too. Screenshots of the Thrashball Drone are floating around too.
I think we can expect a Pendulum Wars Story DLC and [I]maybe[/I] a 'What Happened To Carmine' Story DLC, from the looks of the character and map list.

Michigan doesn't have a Jack in the Box, so if you do end up getting more codes I would love one. Plus i've given a lot to the Facepunch community. A Halo Reach code, Fallout: New Vegas, 3 copies of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas, 1 Grand Theft Auto Vice City, 2 Hitman: Blood Money, 2 Medal of Honor Airborne, 12 Terraria, Half-Life 2, Portal 2, plus countless beta codes.

Well the DLC maps appeared in the leaderboards of horde and beast mode.
[editline]5th October 2011[/editline]
That's how i found out about the first 3.

He provided screenshots of a few. All I'm saying is, the information is pretty credible, and parts of it have been confirmed to be true already.
Grim, you could totally hook me up with a code since, you know, I have the best avatar ever. :dance:
[editline]5th October 2011[/editline]
For real though, that'd be super nice.

Also, I have a friend who works at Best Buy, she said she could try to pick me up some Mechanic Baird codes, I'll give them out if she pulls through.
