No major updates in Gears of War as of now

Epic Games' much admired TPS Gears of War will not have too many updates in the near future. These were the indications given by game's lead designer Cliff Bleszinski (aka Cliffy B) in a GDC interview with the game fansite Team Xbox . Updates if any will be multiplayer versus focused. And yes, the game will remain 4 vs. 4 (they have no plans to add 4-player co-op) and there will be no change in Achievement Points even though Microsoft has made amendments in Achievement Point rules.

But gamers can take consolation in that there will be more game maps and game types. But unfortunately, the weapons may remain the same.

Cliffy went on to add that though a lot of hue and cry had been raised about bullet lag and host community, there is little that can be done on this aspect given the fact that both the game engine Unreal Engine and the game have very inflexible network codes.

Ranked play with friends could be accommodated but for that there will have to be a party or clan system. Strangely no questions were asked about rectifying bugs in the game.

Well, let us wait and see!
