It is extremely hard to explain how in depth the game goes as far as twists, turns surprises and things you would never think possible, even in this sci-fi franchise, without giving away any spoilers. It has been a long road to salvation through out the games and you can see that more than ever in this game as these soldiers have bled, sweat and done everything they have had to to survive this seemingly endless battle for the planet Serra. As the story progresses you only feel closer to the characters as if you know them personal and can feel their emotions. The Gears of War 3 campaign was quite an experience and you become closer to the characters in the franchise right from the beginning, seeing where they eat and sleep. This is still a great add on to the game especially in Arcade mode when you can see how many points you are getting in comparison to your team mates. You can even gain experience to level up in campaign as well as every single mode in the game however, you are not going to reaching the top level by playing campaign only this century. With the added Arcade mode, you might very well want to play the campaign many times as Arcade mode is the same campaign, only you are scored on everything you do making it a competitive co-op experience.
You might want to play as a certain character in the campaign which would lead to playing the campaign more than once. Gears of War 3 does an amazing job of mixing an emotional masterpiece with an action packed campaign with tons more to do outside of the campaign.įor the first time in all the games you can play Gears of War 3 with 4 people in the campaign, which just expands the experience and makes the campaign that much better as well as adding replay value. You can get away without playing the games first campaign but the Gears of War games progressively become more personal and emotional as the story goes on. Playing the Gears of War 2 campaign is not necessary, but no doubt recommended. You play the games in third person getting to know the characters, their personalities and their background all through out the games.
I almost have to treat this as somewhat of a review of a trilogy to a degree because of that. In all seriousness the game is easily the the best out of any of the previous games in the franchise, however it simply would not have been as good a game without the others leading up to it. Gears of War 3 is an amazing game that you must play. What do you think of these changes, and are you planning on going for Seriously 4.Here we are the final chapter in developers Epic’s epic trilogy, Gears of War 3. Presumably other achievements will be earned along the way however, like finishing the campaign on Insane. Having to hit wave 50 for 10 different maps of Horde mode will also be a major challenge if the difficulty is on par with Gears 3 (I've only ever made it to wave 50 on one single map myself). This reveal tells us some interesting things about Gears 4. Since the re-up scheme has clearly changed from 3 to at least 10, hopefully they won't take as long each time or this achievement will vex for years. Complete all 10 base on-disc maps from Wave 1-50 (any difficulty).Complete the Campaign on Insane Difficulty.So what exactly will be required for overly zealous fans willing to put in the effort this time around? After plenty of teasing, the multi-tiered requirements have now been revealed as: We heard the fan feedback on Seriously 3.0 from Gears of War 3 so we’ve streamlined the requirements from that version to offer clearer, less intrusive goals (for example, you won't need to get 6000 kills with each weapon) that still take time to earn." "The philosophy behind our design of the next Seriously iteration is simple - to make an achievement representing Gears fans that show hardcore dedication to the game and mastery of all aspects of Gears of War.
New Gears developer The Coalition - having taken over from series regular Epic Games back in 2014 - knew changing up the formula was necessary but might lead to some backlash, so they issued this statement about the new achievement focus: Getting 100,000 kills in Gears 2 required a level of farming that frankly didn't seem worth it for instance, while earning all 65 Onyx medals and hitting level 100 in Gears 3 took a huge time investment but was at least fun the whole way through.
The previous iterations have had varying levels of difficulty, with some having less incentive to actually complete. The soul-crushingly hard Seriously line of achievements makes a return, and with even more requirements than ever before! A Changing Philosophy We've already covered how big changes are coming to Horde mode, but that's not the only element seeing some major tweaks.
