Gears 3: Opinions, Suggestions & Thoughts

[Jalepeno Shogun]

I love gears, i think it kicks halos ass and is the best multiplayer shooter on 360 (my opinion) So since gears 3 is the next to come, and since we've had to games, what needs to change? I think the vehicle sections (the tank bit in #2 and the junker in #1) should be cut out, and your team mates in single player should be able to pick you up, and have the thing that happens when you play co op. Also i think the button prompts should be a little more subtle, but that's just a tiny nit pick. So Escapist... what do you think?

I should be able to throw whatever gun has the chainsaw thingy on it at people.

 

[Mrsoupcup]

A nail gun that has exploding rusty nails, that would make it perfect.

Bring Back Berserkers. I loved fighting those big ugly bitches. Also add some new guns. We have all mastered the ones there are.

Yeah, gears 2 had a large variety of enemies yet for some reason they removed the Berserker. I thought it would be interesting to fight underground, seeing as you wouldn't be able to use the hammer of dawn to save you.

My biggest complaint with Gears 2 is that the ending sucked. Give Gears 3 a satisfying ending.

Make a gun that shoots chainsaws. And miniature trains with spikes on them.

Fuck it, put spikes on EVERYTHING.

I think it should be smaller, worse and less bad-ass...

Being able to choke downed enemies with the bolo grenades would be a nice touch.

Some degree of control over where the chainsaw part of the gun went when cutting an enemy. Moving around the thumbstick to maneuver the beast would be sweet. I'd try cutting the center out of a Locust.

A much better boss fight.

No rail-shooter part.

Another easter egg on par with "Who wants toast?"

One more Cole Train radio broadcast.

A bigger window of opportunity for 2 people to chainsaw one enemy.

Better revival AI.

Downed execution for chainsaw: cuts the enemy's head clean off.

Execution for snub pistol: walk shots up the enemy's body, then reload, using a pistol whip to the enemy's head to ram the new clip home.

I like the way you think. Add Spikes and rocket propulsion, and you've got yourself a good FPS.

If they would just fix all of the plot holes that you need to read the companion novel to find out about I would prefer it.

God yess. More Cole Train all round. And fix that damn A.I

More:
Being able to use a Boomer's or Bloodmount' corpse as cover.

Getting to hijack the Bloodmounts when the driver is weakened/dead. Animation: uses revved chainsaw to pull and cut the driver off, then sling the gun onto the back, hop on the creature, and use it to raise hell!
Alt: if no Lancer, then he grabs the driver's arm, pulls its head into reach, then yanks and twists the driver off by the head, breaking the neck.

Getting to be invisible(like Jack) would be sweet for a while.

If you slam into cover after roadie-running for more than 2 secs, then the screen should get a little fuzzy and shake for a little while, like you just took a big hit.

Maybe if you slam into cover after roadie-running for more than 2 secs, and the cover has been degraded enough, you just plow right through it, and fall once you break through. It would make getting to cover more interesting.

We need more spikes. MOREEEEEEEEEE.

Reminds me of the Tyranid.

They shouldn't make it. As for it beating halo, well that is not hard.

Try looking for an existing mod... unless you have the console version.

Going along with the controllable chainsawing, get rid of the button-mashing QTE, and have the result of a chainsaw battle depend on the maneuvering you do with the thumbstick. Use a system like Fight Night: round 3 in terms of blocking and types of attacking(jab, hook, uppercut, roundhouse, parries, etc...)

Maybe dual executions. Two lancers, each going opposite directions on the downed enemy body...

Dom not to bleed out on insane.

That made me laugh, for that you get this.

Chainswords. You mean chainswords.

 

[IsoNeko]

Better acting, Lose the story, Add some fucking closure, re-add Social Games with customisable rules and weapon sets, get rid of the gnasher as a default weapon, and make it more powerful but as a pick-up, and turn it into the game it was fucking supposed to be.

I remember reading the Gears 1 Instruction Manual, and they said that Gears was inspired after a Paintball game, with bullets whizzing overhead while they took cover...They've got the cover part, but covers useless against a goddamn shotgun!

Mega Man's worst nightmare...
