Re: GRAW2 classic co-op 2...call out Sat. Mar.
if your just getting the game, then unfortunately to play with us...you have to have the free map (tells you in game to download it), and the four add-ons (that cost points), It won't let you join if you don't have ALL the same maps as the host, even ones you won't play.... just FYI.... yep, it sucks... could wait for the new all included version coming someday soon.

I wasn't aware of the fact that you needed all of the add-ons, so thanks for the update. It seems I'll be spending my leftover holiday money on some Microsoft Points. If the Xbox 360 version of GRAW2 surpasses its PC counterpart, however, I am sure I'll be happy with all of the content.

I just worked my way through the GRAW 2 tutorial and decided to take a look at the available content from Xbox LIVE. The complimentary map titled Nowhere was rather obvious and I found a free gun pack. The two Throwback Packs were also free, however, so I want to make sure the only additional content I need are the two Co-op Map Packs.

Re: GRAW2 classic co-op 2...call out Sat. Mar.
I got a chance to participate in this session and had a blast playing GRAW 2 for the first time in co-operative mode. Gameplay with the Xbox 360 seems much smoother than its PC counterpart and I enjoyed this version a lot more. It is still going to take some time to adjust to using a controller, but was easy to pick up the basics within even the first few games.
The maps we played today were certainly hard, but I actually enjoyed not being able to simply storm through objectives. It will be interesting to see how we do next week with a little experience.
Xbox LIVE certainly has its ducks in a row in regards to hosting multiplayer sessions with GRAW 2. I found it very simple to understand and setup seemed quick and easy.
I appreciate the invitation to join this session and look forward to playing with group more often.

Yeah, I'd have to say GRAW2 has one of the best mutliplayer setups on the 360 that I've experienced so far.
And it was fun, glad to see so many new faces! Hopefully next weekend we can get our **** together and git'r'done!
I, personally, want to complete the co-op missions in order, no skipping

Back in the golden days of ghost recon I remember trying the same mission for hours and refusing to move on until we got the success.
While GRAW2 is not quite the same as those bygone days, it is still one of the best experiences out there for multiplayer gaming. Assuming you have the right group to play with.

Re: GRAW2 classic co-op 2...call out Sat. Mar.
I do wish that GRAW1 and 2 would of broken the squad down into teams like original GR did...so much easier to control and work in a tactical fire team pair or 3.
but we will do it.
