Default Gears of War 2 Download Codes

I have just received word from Six Okay regarding the unlock codes for weapons and the map pack.

"We are aware of the issue and looking into what might be causing the problem. Once I have more specific information I’ll let you know what’s happening."

We ask for your patience and that you direct people to this post if they have any questions. New topics are not necessary.

Thank you!

UPDATED by Six Okay:

Hey guys, we've got this sorted. If you've already tried to download the Golden Lancer and had issues, just follow the steps below and you'll be... well, Golden

1. Launch the Xbox Dashboard
2. Sign into your Profile
3. Go to the Marketplace blade
4. Select “Account Management”
5. Select “Download History”
6. Under the “Games” section, select “Gears of War 2 Gold-Plated Lancer Assault Rifle”
7. When the blade appears, select “Download Again”
8. Wait until the “download complete” confirmation toast appears

If you're already on NXE:

1. Launch the Xbox 360 Dashboard
2. Sign into a Profile
3. Go to the My Xbox channel
4. Select your profile (second selection) and press A
5. Select “Account Management”
6. Select “Download History”
7. Under the “Games” section, select “Gears of War 2 Gold-Plated Lancer Assault Rifle”
8. When the blade appears, select “Download Again”
9. Wait until the “download complete” confirmation toast appears

I’ve heard reports of people having to try re-downloading it a couple of times, so if you still get an error, please wait a few minutes and try again. Also, try deleting the original download, and THEN re-downloading it. As long as you entered the code and initiated the original download, deleting this won't cause any re-download issues.

Thanks for your patience, guys.

We are aware that there are other issues with the codes and we are looking into it. Please have patience while it gets sorted. Thank you!

Question I'm hoping this gets fixed soon!

Hi. I was at my Gamestop for the midnight release, and I got the Limited Edition of the game. I got three code cards for the free gold Hammerburst, the free Flashback map pack, and a special Xbox Live GOW theme for when they update the Live marketplace soon. I went to put in the codes, and got a message saying the code was invalid. I have referred to the above post from Epic. I hope it is fixed soon. I plan on playing a lot this weekend in multiplayer. It just would be cool to have the gold Lancer, and Hammerburst there for me to use.

Please keep us updated on this problem with these free downloads. Thanks!

The way to solve this is by going to Account on the Live tab, Download History and then look around for the golden lancer and it will let you download it.

Thanks,
Olly

Question

An EB Games employee spit on me and called me a whore when I went to pick up my LE. Does that qualify me for a Gold HB code and if not, can I still have one?

Thnx.
