8-26-2011 9:00 AM EST Through 8-29-2011 9:00 AM EST 10X
9-2-2011 9:00 AM EST Through 9-5-2011 9:00 AM EST 15X
9-9-2011 9:00 AM EST Through 9-12-2011 9:00 AM EST 20X
9-16-2011 9:00 AM EST Through 9-19-2011 9:00 AM EST 25X

Each XP event will have something special. Last weekend it was tickers shit loads of them and 32 shotgun ammo to help get rid of them!

I'll post up the info when it's been decided by Epic for each weekend.

This weekend starting now (26th) until the 29th it's 10Xp and mixed up weapons on Horde

thanks for the info so does the xp event only last 1 day?

I'd believe that it would last the whole weekend?

This weekend starting now (2nd September) and lasting for 6 whole days is 15XP and you got wretches with Torque bows on Horde lol. (aka Cupids!)

sounds pretty intense

I messed up with that last post it ended on the 6th not lasting 6 days lol So yea the XP event is over I got to level 97 almost there. Will post next weekends event real soon!

I get a lot of hate on the EPIC Games forums for this but I hate xp events. Why? So many fake 100s now it's not even funny. When I play against a 100 I expect a challenge, but now, I just spank the shit out of them all, and then when I look at there stats. They only have like 4000 Kills. I had 12,000 kills when I got my 100 rank. (in a ranked game mode I mean, not just in general.) Xp events ruined Gears of War 2. They got carried away with them. I didn't mind having a x2 or a x6 every 6 months or during holidays. But those 25x and 30x are just stupid and ruined the ranking system to me.

I feel what you are saying there Mister Wookiee. I would of been a legit level 100 well before they brought the new ranking system out. I got a boost with the countless XP events and will more than likely get my wings with this weekends XP event.

But don't worry man we get to start a fresh in Gears of War 3

Yeah lol, in 2 years they will most likely start doing the same thing on Gears 3 there doing now. lol

I heard the ranking system in Gears 3 is way slower though.

20 XP event already started there are Boomers everywhere on Horde

Yeah, I'm level 100 already, had mine for over a year now lol.

I'm nowhere near 100 sad innit
