    Does it have a level or xp cap before it becomes locked out? I was in a match weeks ago against a dude that was way higher level than the rest of us and just owning the whole team. He was way too good to still be trolling in Casual Mode picking off us noobs.

    What level are you now may I ask? I remember my casual mode locked after my first time playing it, however i was at least level 10 or so I believe.

    I never even got to play in it, guess because it read that I had played GoW1 and 2.

    I'm pretty sure it doesn't have an EXP limit before it locks you out. I'm new to Gears of War and I got locked out around level 18, basically at the point where I came to grips with how to play and started doing well.

    It's a shame because I'm not that great at the game so most of the time I get totally destroyed in the normal mode. I wish I could go back to casual and have a chance again ... >.<

    I'm only a level 14 and it's locked for me, I honestly don't think that it was ever unlocked..of course I have a record with the past 2 gears games...so maybe it's for newbies only?

    It's kind of confusing....but it's a great thing for people who are new to the game because normal matches can be pretty brutal to people who aren't seasoned.

    It's only available for awhile if you haven't played Gears 1 or 2.

    But I have played Gears 1 & 2 and have them both on my save file. Not multiplayer though. I think I'm around level 8 or 9 or something cannot remember.

    Glad it invoked Seinfeld thoughts. Seinfeld was one of the funniest shows ever made, no problems there. :D

    I played Gears 1 and 2 and I was locked out of casual mode immediately. And I wasn't all that leveled up in Gears 2. So I don't know. Also, now I keep picturing Seinfeld doing a whole set on the subject of the Gears of War universe. Like, "What's the deal with the Queen? She's clearly a human but she's leader of Locust?" There's something there, but I can't quite figure it out.

    Casual Mode?
     
    Seems kind of redundant, if you ask me.
