Gears 2 matchmaking fix "top priority"

2009-09-05T03:49:47Z

"We're aware that some folks are experiencing longer-than-ideal wait times while using the skill-based public matchmaking in Gears 2 multiplayer," said senior producer Rod Fergusson on the official forums.

"We're working on some solutions but it's a complicated issue as there isn't any one problem; it's a combination of factors. Clearly, scale is one of them as we've had millions of successful matches played online so far, [but] a small percentage of players are having issues, which is unacceptable.

"We're working closely with Microsoft to address the matchmaking issues, I promise you that it is our number one priority, and we hope to have an update soon," he said.

Gears of War 2 review 2

2008-11-18T13:14:31Z

The original Gears of War was one of the reasons I invested in Microsoft's big, white, noisy box, so the news that Epic were bringing out a sequel to the blockbuster was pretty good to hear. And, as expected, Gears of War 2 has happily chainsawed its way to the top of the charts, slaughtering the other recent releases and even dropping the Master Chief himself down a couple of steps.

And yes, it is very, very good, but it doesn't really do anything we haven't seen before.

Gears of War 2 Q&A

2008-11-17T10:14:29Z

For many gamers, Gears of War was the reason to buy an Xbox 360, and when the opportunity arose to ask Epic a few questions, we jumped at it!

iafrica.com: When you made Gears of War 1, there was considerable opposition to including the chainsaw in the game initially, but it proved to be very popular in the end. Was there any similar opposition to something this time around?
