Gearheads of War

Well this started off as a comment but I just had so much to say I just figured I'd make it a diary.

Its hard to pinpoint the advantage and disadvantages on the weapons with Gears 1, because almost every weapon in this game has 2 different scenarios...you can shoot somebody with the lancer and use your entire clip and they won't go down or you can use a quarter of it and down somebody(without active). Shoot somebody with Boom and your lucky if they blow up or get downed..Shotgun is weird because you can get a head shot from 30 feet, but sometimes it takes more than 1 shot point blank range to get the kill. Tourqe Bow has changed as well. I have stuck and seen arrows stick in players and sometimes it blows up sometimes it doesn't. Even if it does blow up theres still a chance they won't die. Also the radius with grenades seems to change all the time . In some cases you do not have to be near it for it to blow you, or the opponent up, versus being close to it and wondering if your going to get stunned or killed. In conclusion, Its hard to say what they need to improve on with the weapons for gears 2 besides the fact that the weapons should be more consistent.

What are your thoughts? I don't remember it being this bad until they started all of the updates.
