Gears 3 what is beast mode




















In addition to managing resources and spawns, players face another implicit threat: time. The Locust horde starts the match with one minute to eradicate all Stranded and Heroes. When a player destroys a blockade or turret, time is added. When a Stranded is killed, or a Hero is executed, even more time is added. Beast, Gears of War 3 lead producer Rod Fergusson explained to me yesterday as we battled through it, is a game of speed.

Anyone can get through Beast Mode's 12 levels, but how fast can you do it? Half an hour? Maybe just 16 minutes, if you're a ninja Epic Games tester?

A Beast Mode session rolls out in waves. At the start, it's just you, as one of an initial selection of five types of beasts, against some wimpy humans. You play on any of the game's multiplayer maps we played on "Drydock" which is a rectangular map full of blind corners with an elevated walkway in the center.

The humans are computer-controlled. They automatically place traps—barricades, turrets and dummies—the kind of defenses that players can deploy as humans in this new game's " Horde Mode 2. The most important thing to know about playing Beast Mode is that you start with only one minute left on the play clock. In one minute, the Hammer of Dawn will strike from above and kill everyone on your team. That would be bad. Thankfully, you gain time on the clock every time you kill an enemy or destroy an emplacement.

You also earn money with each kill, healing moves and damage caused to pathetic human emplacements. That's handy, because you must pay money to become a beast.

Each time you die, you have to pay to become a new one. As you earn certain large amounts of money, you'll unlock new beasts to choose from and have an increasingly enjoyable time mauling pathetic humans. But as the waves of Beast Mode progress, you'll also find yourself no longer just going up against easily-shredded ordinary male and lady soldiers.

Heroes of the Gears -verse will appear, one at a time, then in groups. They are harder to kill and, worse, they have heavy guns. Anya's got a mortar. Cole's got a Boomshot. Hoffman has a Hammer of Dawn. The cheapest beast is the Wild Ticker. It can eat grenades, but that's a useless skill unless you have a friend playing as a grenadier unit. This would turn you into a virtual suicide bomber. See the next unit for why that's good. You want to be this guy if you want to chomp through defenses.

He can detonate as soon as you pull the trigger, so make him run into a crowd and blow himself up. Try not to think about what the real-world equivalent is. The Wretch is a basic melee unit. His best ability is a scream attack which can stun humans. As Fergusson noted, you want to think about team strategies for Beast Mode.

If I'm the Wretch, I can stun guys into position. Gears of War 3 walkthrough. Hide ads. To get this achievement you can either play with some buddies, which makes it easier, or do it alone. I was able to do it alone.

Beast Mode has a concept similar to the concept behind Horde Mode , but this mode has players playing as the different Locust variants against 12 waves of well fortified humans. The humans you face in early waves will mostly be the Stranded ; but as the you progress through the waves, they will escalate in difficulty by increasing the A. The "Heroes" must be executed unlike the Stranded , making it harder to kill them.

With each kill, revive or other supportive action, cash is rewarded. Cash is used to buy other types of Locust , and as more Locust are bought, you may progress through higher and more powerful tiers of monsters to use.

In the last wave, you have to kill Presscot, along with several onyx guards. As you play through Beast Mode and earn kills and cash, you will eventually unlock the higher tiers of the Locust Horde.
