To this day, Gears of War still has a strong following in online multiplayer. As awesome as the single-player campaign looks in the sequel, most fans’ questions pertain to the new and improved multiplayer. So X-Play sat down with Cliff Bleszinski to talk about what sort of changes they’re planning to implement. Aside from new weapons and maps and such, it seems the team has thankfully identified some problems plaguing the first game, which they hope to correct (i.e. more cover-focused action and less problems from achievement whores). So far, it definitely sounds like they’re on the right track.

I think the number one issue us hardcore Gears enthusiasts want addressed is the host advantage.

I think the 16 minute video that released GoW2 multiplayer coverage said that they are trying to fix that.
