Epic still working on Gears of War 2 fix

Tuesday 18-Nov-2008 9:43 AM To distract you from the problems, they throw multiplayer stats at you instead.

Epic is still working on a solution to Gears of War 2's matchmaking issues.

"We're working on some solutions but it's a complicated issue as there isn't any one problem," says Rod Fergusson, Gears of War 2 producer. "It's a combination of factors. Clearly, scale is one of them as we've had millions of successful matches played online so far, however a small percentage of players are having issues, which is unacceptable.

We're working closely with Microsoft to address the matchmaking issues, I promise you that it is our #1 priority, and we hope to have an update soon."

In the meantime, Rod Fergusson has some stats to share with us all:

Almost 3 million multiplayer matches (excluding Private) have been played.

Almost 1 million screenshot photos have been uploaded to gearsofwar.com

The most popular multiplayer mode is Horde.

The most popular multiplayer map across all modes is River.

The most lethal weapon is the Gnasher shotgun with almost 29% of all kills.
