Just played a few rounds of it. Man, this is what Gears was missing. Definitely a game type for friends to get together and work as a team. I dig it.
Also..
There were a few small things included in the patch, I'm sure everyone noticed them. But has anyone caught up with any bugs or the such? Two nights ago I was playing rooftops through out the night, going for the 100 hammer of dawn kills, all was well. So I started to play rooftops after the patch, and now I'm getting stuck to every corner as I run out of spawn, and there were a few other people complaining about it in the game. Anyone else notice this? Could just be an unlucky case of lag, I'll have to play a few more games to see if it's consistent.
