Gearheads of War

In the Speak Now diary, David graciously offered to answer our questions about Gears of War 2 Multiplayer starting on Wednesday.  I figure, we could start posting questions now, and then we will have a head start on Wednesday.  Again, David won't be able to start answering questions until Wednesday, but there is no reason that we can't get our questions ready for him before that time.  David, thanks very much for this!

One other thing, I know that, I for one, am suffering from Anticipation-itis, and am getting pretty short-tempered and rant-y.  So, I would just like to offer a couple of suggestions to keep us all on task, and keep the atmosphere light and respectful:

1   Read the list and try not to repeat others' questions.
2   If someone has somehow missed the original mention, and you notice that there is a repeat question, please mention it respectfully with just the following phrase "Already asked.  Please see above."
3   If you have a different take on a question already provided, just reply to that original question.  (If someone makes a mistake and doesn't "reply" in the proper thread, please be forgiving of each other, we are all just getting used to the new format of Gearheadsofwar.com.)
4   Please, if someone posts what you think is a dumb question, propose a better question on the same topic - or just simply ignore it.  The best way to deal with foolish posts is to ignore them (at least until some day when administrators will either be able to delete them, or lock the threads.)

Cheers!  No spoilers in MP (except for the discussion of certain Locusts that might appear in the latter levels of Horde).  Discuss away.  Personally, I have been waiting for news on MP for months now.
