Manually configure IP & DNS settings to share the same network Connecting the two systems with an ethernet cable We just tried to do the exact same thing with Gears of War 3 but so far we were just unable to see each other. Other options were 'Public Xbox LIVE' (couldn't work because he's Silver) and 'System Link' that just didn't seem to work at all. I own an Xbox LIVE Gold account but my roommate doesn't (Silver account only) so we gave it a try and it WORKED!Д«y selecting 'Custom Xbox LIVE' on my Xbox One when creating a party for starting a co-op campaign he was able to see my party when browsing and join in, letting us enjoy the full-scale campaign mode in co-op. So far so good, one day with my roommate we wondered if we could be able to play a little co-op of Gears of War 2 on our local network, with himself and his gamertag playing on the Xbox 360 and me and my own gamertag playing through my Xbox One (on 2 different TVs of course, but on the same wired network).

So here is the thing, I actually own an Xbox 360 with the entire Gears of War series, I also own an Xbox One system with the original Gears of War Remaster and owning this game allowed me to receive activation codes to also get digital versions of every Gears of War game available through backward compatibility. This is considered by some players a cheap, easy and dishonorable way to beat Insane.I don't know if this subject has already been discussed over here (couldn't find it) but after a few unsuccessful attempts to find any solution over the internet, I'm hoping to find some help here. However, from Gears of War 2 onwards save for Ultimate Edition players have the chance of selecting difficulty individually, so some players put themselves on Insane while having a partner go on a lower difficulty such as Casual and have them do most of the fights while the player on Insane stays back as much as possible, but this only gives the rewards to the player going on Insane. Overall, Insane is a difficulty only recommended to expert players who have extensive knowledge on the game and want to unlock the achievements related to it or are up for a challenge. Gears of War 2 does not have Achievements for completing Campaign Acts on Insane apart from completing the entire game on Insane, leaving little motivation to go through the game on that difficulty. You will also receive other Hardcore achievements such as those for killing the Berserker and Corpser. Completing acts on Insane gets you the achievements for completing the acts on Hardcore as well, unless you've already completed those acts on Hardcore. However the player can be revived on Insane while playing Co-op in GOW 1, 2 and Ultimate Edition. Also, this difficulty will not allow you to be revived on any Gears of War game in single player, so losing all health will instantly result in death. The amount of damage it takes to destroy enemies is significantly higher than on Casual and Hardcore and aiming for the head is the only way to preserve ammo. Enemies that find the player camping too long rush to his/her position some even hop over the player's cover and attack with deadly melee techniques. Players must watch their flanks and relocate accordingly, as enemy speed and intelligence increase exponentially. Cover is a necessity in all firefights, but that's not nearly enough. Insane mode requires near perfect observance of the game's ideals and techniques. In fact, the Health boost is so great that some believe that the Allies on Insane are better than they are on Hardcore, despite the fact that Hardcore is easier.

However, the health of Allied characters except Dom are greatly increased to allow the player a chance to survive and prevent them from looking too pathetic. While playing on this difficulty, Dom and Marcus' health are much lower than normal. To give you an incentive to play this difficulty, you get Achievements just by playing through this mode and defeating enemies. Achieving Perfect and successful reloads is an excellent strategy on Insane. Enemies are extremely accurate and have an increased amount of health, while players can be killed in just a few shots from enemy fire. In this mode, players are severely punished for not using cover. It is usually represented by a Platinum Gear with four stars. Insane is the hardest of the 3 difficulties in Gears of War and the 4 difficulties in all the following games (except Gears of War 4 which added the Inconcievable difficulty after an update) and can only be unlocked after first completing the campaign on either the Casual, Normal, or Hardcore difficulties, although in Gears of War 4 it's available from the start. The Insane choice - 'You are a master of the Headshot'.
