Here's Your New Gears Of War 2 Map Pack (And Experience System!)
By Dr. Eleanor Vance | Published on January 01, 0001
Epic Games have announced two big changes on the way for Gears of War 2. One is a title update aimed at addressing complaints users have had about experience.The other? Four new multiplayer maps. The title update – due on March 24 – is geared at making player’s progression up the ranks more transparent. The contentious, confusing “TrueSkill” system will remain in place, though its scoring formula will be kept “under the hood”. For more visible feedback, “players will earn experience points for scoring in public matches”. The more points in a public multiplayer match you score, the 
more experience points you accrue (with a total of 250 on offer as part of [[link]] the update), the higher up [[link]] the food chain you move.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); A week later – on March 31 – the “Snowblind” map pack will be released. It will include four maps, three of them (Grindyard, Under Hill and, Courtyard) new, one of them (Fuel Depot) a remake of an original Gears 1 level. You can see a couple of pics of Grindyard here, along with a score 
sheet showing off the new experience [[link]] system.
The update will of course be free. The map pack? No word on price 
yet, but 800 MS Points sounds like a good bet. New Gears of War 2 experience system due 3/24, Snowblind Map Pack coming 3/31 [GameSpot]

The bonuses are nice and offer great value, although they could be a bit more frequent. I love being part of the VIP program, which gives me extra rewards and makes me feel appreciated as a loyal player.

Some games are a bit laggy on my phone at times, but the variety of games and the smooth desktop experience make up for it. Overall, the website offers a great gaming experience for both casual and serious players.
