To start with the Guardian bug, here’s what happened. The game just started as usual, but then something strange happened. There first was a message that the opponents leader was dead… but just as fast, a new tracking thing appeared like there was a second leader. When that person was killed, there was another message about a killed leader, but our leader was still alive… 2 leaders?

It looks like that, because the ending stats also did show 2 leaders in the opposing team.  But it’s strange that the first leader didn’t come back alive… so it’s useless to have 2 leaders in your team, if you are the second leader, you only will be found faster. But a bug is a bug, and epic should fix it.

*update* You ARE (sort of) invincible as a team if you have 2 leaders, I had it a second time this day, and it proofed that if the opposing team has 2 leader, you can only win if you kill the second leader while the first one is dead. I hope I can get a link to a screenshot I’ve made as proof.

The other bug is far more irritating. If you have a bit of lag, and you die at the end of the round, there’s a chance that you won’t be able to play the next round. You will start in observation view, and sometimes you are even able to shoot from that view (just at one point… but you can shoot)… but it seems that you can also get killed if that’s the case. It really ruins the online multiplayer, and of course, they should fix it.

I hope that Epic really releases a patch to fix the current glitches and bugs, because GoW2 seems to become a little bit unplayable online… If they do so, I can start to find some real interesting things to write about, not this bullcrap.

Stay tuned.

- First of all Team up with 5 people in one party, with invites.

- Invite the 6th person, but DON’T let him accept it… yet.

- Now start the matchmaking, and try to let the 6th player join as soon as you’ve found an opposing team. This probably needs incredible timing, but I can assure you that it’s possible to do it. You can also try to just let him join while you’ve started matchmaking, maybe that works too.

- IF everything is OK, and that’s what happened to me, you will find the 6th player under your party, but it blinks, and you get a warning that you have one player too much, but then the pre-game lobby opens, and he’s in it with you. You’ll see one opponent missing (so they are with 4), and the extra player isn’t listed in your team.

When the match start, you have 6 players on your team, and the other team just has 4 players, and that could be in your advantage .

As soon as the match is over, your extra member will be kicked from the party.

Maybe Epic should patch this glitch, along with the other glitches and the slow matchmaking system, it will really save the game. I hope that someone can confirm the glitch with pictures or a video. Next to this advantage of partying up online with GoW2, it seems that partying up with 5 people really is speeding the matchmaking up, so party up people!
