Gears of War 2 - HORDE MODE

Any Horde Players out there?

This is pretty much all I'm playing these days, but people on public games are idiots. Any team-work players out there want to swap gamer tags?

I have never survived past level 30.

Hoard mode is awesome. I play with my mate so its not often I look for players so cant help there - sorry. You gotta find that place in the map thats defensable and maybe use the shield + pistol for some of the time.

I've had nothing but problems with public games.

In one game my four teammates completely ignored the shields at the beginning of wave 20. The shields that I placed earlier in wave 19. MORONS. We got demolished by blood mounts.

In another game, one guy kept complaining, "stop taking my kills!" He was a good player though, until he died on wave 19. All he did was whine about us leaving him to die -- never mind that we were holed up in a corner defending while he was on the other side of the map being a "loner". MORON.

With 2 other allies in a local private game game, we've only made it to about wave 19.

Ahh I see the problem now. I just play with one mate of mine. He has completed all 50 by himself so he is pretty good at it but I agree that you all need to be in one place and all working together. Two is better I think cos you have the option of reviving your team mate when a stray boomer gets you so stand apart to prevent a wipe out. I think you need to carry the shields from one game to the next or else sometimes they vanish. We also hit them all down till only one or two remain and then go on an ammo hunt. If you get a standard grunt left then shoot him in the leg or not in the head so he goes on a bleed out and then you can get tooled up for the next round. Dunno what else to suggest.
