What do you want from Gears of War 3?

[duchaked]

I want a female Gear, I want character customization, and I want him to magically make me better at multiplayer.

hahaha same here

oh and a longer campaign
with more levels of 'just kill with gun' variety (lotsa replay value haha)

 

[The Austin]

-Better matchmaking
-Longer campaign
-Explain stuff from Gears 2 (sires, how some random scientist knew the locust HQ location from 20 or w/e years before, what the hell the locust did to tai to make him deface himself, etc)
-Balance the weapons, start by removing the boomshot completely
-Host Migration, or please please please, dedicated servers!
-Special horde mode where you play as locust against AI COG soldiers
-Fight a berzerker underground so you cant just hammer of dawn or make it fall off a train...

Hey! Those are pret-

What the? YOU'RE NOT NEONBOB!!! WHO ARE YOU!?!?!?! WHAT DID YOU DO WITH NEONBOB!?!?!?

 

[CRAVE CASE 55]

For them to explain

WHY THE FUCK YOUR DAD WAS IN THE LOCUST HIVE AND WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM.

 

[ElephantGuts]

More interesting settings than cave after cave after cave. Maybe something like...what the first Gears had? Now that game had atmosphere. Gears 2 had some of the blandest maps I've ever seen.

 

[Guitarmasterx7]

More agile gears. Maybe not Uncharted 2 "climb around on everything and jump around like maniacs" agile, but at least to the point where it doesn't feel like you're controlling a fat guy who has to stop every 30 seconds to lean against a wall and rest.

 

[Pegghead]

For us to finally learn what the big deal is with Marcuses father, they gave a brief description of his locust entanglement in the second game but it hardly counts.

I just want them to make it with more variety, slightly less aggravating cover controls (They aren't so bad, but last night I was playing horde mode for the first time and it was frustrating as hell whenever you had to run your testosterone fuelled ass away from danger yet every time you graced a wall they'd compulsively stick to it as though their backs were covered in glue.

B. Carmine to be brought back to life and become the main character

Me, I want them to get rid of the terrible matchmaking system they had in number two or at the very least increase to the quality of MW2 and the Halo games. I'd also like for them to get rid of those knock back/knock down smoke grenades.

I find games just as fast in Gears 2 as I do in Modern Warfare 2, and the smoke grenades have been patched for quite some time now.

I would like some different animations. I get tired of seeing the same exact gibs over and over, and the executions really loose their touch after playing it regularly for over a year.

I would also like them to spend more time in character developement. Tai and Dizzy were both a bit... lacking. I'm totally cool with the whole "1 soldier for every race" thing, but I didn't give a crap about either of them. I really hope Dizzy returns in Gears 3, because I didn't get to know him well enough to care about him.

Spoiler

Whenever they killed Tai off, I didn't care even the slightest bit. It would mean a lot more if it was a character I actually got to know. If they were to kill Baird or Cole however, I would feel really bad.

And I would like there to be a longer campaign. Shooters keep getting shorter and shorter until soon it will just be multiplayer.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Well, to finish the story, for a start...

Eh, I suppose so.

That said, what exactly stopped them doing that already?

It's a long story.

 

[IanBrazen]

Yeah, so anyway, what do you folks want?

Fucking working and balanced Multiplayer.
I have never gotten more frustrated at a game before.

anyhoo I love the single player and I cant wait for them to continue the story.
Some more refined chainsaw duels might help.

Yeah, you summed up my position perfectly. The Single Player is great, but the multiplayer is the most over rated, broken thing I've ever played. I mean, say what you want about Halo and CoD, at least their multiplayer is functional on a basic level.

In fact thats what Im always saying to my brothers. If halo and CoD can make multiplayer and have it not lagg hardly ever, why cant Gears?
I just dont get it, half the time the only way you can win is if you are hosting the game.

Like the ability to turn off the gore you should be able to turn off the grunting. Replace it with fan girl squeals or lines of poetry.

I quite like this idea. It made me chuckle.

I want a better matchmaking system. I don't play Gears 1 or 2 online because I'm afraid of getting raped sideways by all the 'hardcore' gears people on live.

Erm, excuse me?

To the first one, my theory is that the humans created the Locust, probably as super-soldiers for the Pendulum Wars. The Sires were kind of prototypes that didn't work out so well. The scientists would know the location of the Locust HQ, then, because they sent them there, as the computer implied. Honestly, that seemed sort of obvious to me.

That works in theory, I had a similar one but it would be nice if they explained rather then us just guessing, and not everyone who plays the game would find it as obvious as you might do.

 

[Zydrate]

The GoW1 multiplayer was awesome sure, but I want a more customizable Single player. I don't know how. I just want it.

 

[Poomanchu745]

For GoW3 not to exist? Overrated games and I don't understand why they get the hype they get.

 

[Red Rum]

All the answers posed by the second game to be answered.
The ability to heal yourself instead of relying on your teammates.
And maybe new powertool/firearm hybrids, like a drill/pistol combo.

 

[Beardon65]

Getting to play as the Grunts. We get enough "We are the only characters with faces which mean we are the total badasses of the game." How about a crap load of COGs on a huge battlefield with a crap load of Locusts. Also pull a Halo 2 and get a veiwpoint through the locusts' eyes.

less brown

Haha. Yeah that'll NEVAR happen.

 

[DeadEnded]

A free copy.

Pretty much that simple on this one. Series is decent, and I'm slightly broke lol. So a free copy would be nice. I really don't see that happening, but I can hope right?

 

[jakeEHTlovless]

An epic and challenging last boss after that last 'boss' in the second game.

yea, someone like RAAM, i thoughlt he was difficult, at least the first time i played him he was

i dont care, as long as JACK is in it, he is awesome, and tbf i dont buy gears for the multiplayer, i get it for story cause i find it really good, and for the person who said less brown,

one they are mainly underground... what do you expect pink and yellow pokadots??

and 2 they were in a giant snake, which was red inside because of the blood(duh) , so shush =)

We will shush once you stop raping English.

HAHAHA, i havent heard someone say "shush" since i was little, this is EPIC!!!!

 

[jakeEHTlovless]

oh, they should take away host on xbox live, i mean its fun and all, but my freind just completely quit gears on live cause he kept getting his ass kicked by the host.... It was funny to watch him stomp his controller, i didnt feel bad for him though, it looked like the controller got hurt way more... oh well, such as life
