What I learned playing GoW2.

-Host advantage is still there, that or the chainsaw is just > Shotguns now. Those were the things ripping us to shreads over the weekend in closer quarters. That and I saw alot of my team shooting at shit from my screen and they completely miss the enemy.
-Multiplayer Lobby HUGE, MONU-FUCKING-MENTAL improvment over the last game.
-Gernades > This game. Being able to Stick them on oppenents or throw them(offensive) and now stick them to walls or suicide while down(defensive) make them, them most reliable and versitile weapon in the game.
-Pistol, while still effective. doesn't down often in 2 melee hits, still has a large hitbox.
-SNiper's AR seems to have taken a nerf.(doesn't down in one AR anymore)
-Smoke nades being actually useful for once, good deal.

Didnt notice the return of host. The saw is a serious threat now. Flamethrower is pretty tight. Ill agree with nades owning now. If you want the old pistol, use the Hammerburst; it downs in 2 melees, has a scope, and can do some nasty damage w/ an active reload. its a real pain in the ass to choose between the lancer and hammerburst since they both have good sides and down sides. but thats the way it should be I guess.

One thing that I never had a complaint about GoW was in the map design and it still hold true in this one. some are fucking gimmicky as hell, like Avalanche and Hail, but not to the point that I think its impossible to play on at this point. over all, they are designed well. fast pushes for power weapons can be fucking destroyed by good smoke nade placement. certain power weapons seem more unwieldy then before, namely the Snipe. it dosent suck, it just means you have to go for the head now, and not just AR and get a free down. Torque is still badass. Had a few Robin Hood-esque pins like old days.

The game is new though. waiting till i see some gay shit ala crabwalking or something.
