God...i hope they learn from the first two games what to do and what NOT to do. Epic's formula of releasing a patch once every two months that 'tweaks' the entire gameplay is ridiculous. You use one gun, get used to it, then they patch it so it isnt as strong, and it makes another stronger, etc etc.

And get a good server system going ffs.

They tweak it every couple of months? I'm getting on GoW3 early in case they do that then, keep it fresh.

Decide the Fate Of Carmine In Gears of War 3
Written Wednesday, July 21, 2010 By Richard Walker


It wouldn't be a Gears of War game without a Carmine brother, and Gears 3 is to be no different, introducing Clayton Carmine, whose brothers Ben and Anthony have previously been on the receiving end of a grisly demise.

The fate of Clayton Carmine is in your hands this time though, with the purchase of avatar gear enabling you to decide whether the third Carmine brother lives or dies, with all proceeds going to the Child's Play Charity.

From July 29th, you'll be able to purchase avatar T-shirts from the Xbox Live Avatar Marketplace, with one shirt emblazoned with the words "Save Carmine" and the other reading "Carmine Must Die". It doesn't take a brain surgeon to work out what buying each shirt will do in terms of casting your vote - grab the "Save Carmine" shirt and you'll vote to spare Carmine, while conversely, buying the "Carmine Must Die" shirt will cast a vote for Carmine to join his brothers in being subjected to a nasty death.

We suspect that everyone will be sporting "Carmine Must Die" T-shirts, which means we'll be picking up the "Save Carmine" shirt, just to be different. And it might be interesting to see what happens if a Carmine brother makes it to the end for once. Whatever the case, be sure to grab one of them and donate a bit of money to a good cause.

Gears of War 3 is due for release on April 5th, 2011.

I have a feeling he'll die either way. In fact, I see almost everyone getting killed off this game. They have so many playable characters it's not even funny. Marcus, Dom, Cole, Baird, Carmine, Hoffman, Anya, that brunette chick, and Jacen (I think that's his name?) from the comic.

FTR, I'd like to know wtf ever happened to Dizzy from GOW2???

Dizzy and Tai fight Skorge while Dom and Marcus use the lifts.
Tai tells Dizzy to run and he does, then radio contact is lost.
Tai is found just before he kills himself.
Dizzy is at the end too.

Gears of War 3 pushed back from April 2011 to now a September-November 2011 release date and it has nothing to do with the game having big problems or Epic adding stuff to the game.

Microsoft decided to push the game from a Spring release to a Fall/Winter release for marketing purposes. Most likely they will revolve the whole Fall schedule around Gears 3 even though they would be competing with the next Call of Duty and other big Fall games.

Quote:
The next day Microsoft shifted the date a bit, saying the game would actually be hitting on April 5, 2011. Today the publisher is shifting Gears 3 a bit more... to the fall of 2011.

And they say the, let's just call it a delay, has nothing to do with development time and everything to do with marketing.

"Gears of War 3 promises to be the biggest entertainment launch of 2011," the Microsoft statement reads. "The teams at Microsoft Game Studios and Epic Games have done great work thus far readying the title for release in the Spring of 2011. However, we've elected to move the launch of Gears of War 3 until Fall 2011 to make it the marquee title for the holiday season."

I can almost assure you they did it for 2 reasons.

1) To make it a huge fall release like Halo: Reach was this year.

and

2) I'm certain they'll make a limited edition GoW3 System bundle for $399.99 that is all tricked out like the Reach one was.

Also, lol @ Greg Grunberg.

Epic Games revealed the special "goodies" or extras for having game saves of Gears 1 and Gears 2 will be chrome skins but each skin is dependent on which game and platform the save is for. "Historical" achievements and classic weapon skins are also part of the extras for loyal players.

Quote:
"If you did something in 'Gears' PC you get a chrome skin, if you did something in 'Gears 2' you get a chrome skin," Rod Fergusson told MTV Multiplayer. "The chrome set is sort of our thank-you to people who played our games in the past."

Don't worry, that's not all the game is offering. Fergusson said there are more weapon skins tied to historical achievements. For example, "Two of the weapon skins are based on historical weapon skins, so if you want the gold lancer and the gold hammerburst in 'Gears 3,' you get them by owning the gold hammerburst and the gold lancer in 'Gears 2,' so those skins transfer over," he said.

Beast Mode was also revealed as being similar to Horde Mode but with the major changes involving playing as the bad guys and being a time-based mode. 5 players can play at the same time with the scoring system based on how quickly both waves and matches are completed.

Some new info was released during Comic-Con but mostly dealing with the story and the game ending the Marcus Fenix storyline.

The war against the Locusts will end and this time part of the storyline revolves around Marcus and his dad.

In terms of actual gameplay, 4-player co-op was confirmed and each player can customize the difficulty for themselves as a way to create a balanced experience instead of just forcing everyone into one difficulty mode.

Quote:
Then came the gameplay info. Not only will the game sport four player co-op in the campaign but each player can select their own difficulty setting in an effort to make the game more accessible, which is an incredibly great idea!
Finally, a special multiplayer lobby will only be accessible for those new to the series or don't have any achievements from the 1st two Gears games. It is meant to let those people have a chance to learn and get used to the game's style without being at a disadvantage from the start against others who already have experience with the series.

Epic Games announced they have a special banning system set in place for those who have been leaking footage of the single player campaign on Youtube and other video sites. The banning tool is rumored to be strong enough to make all modes of the game unplayable and is also being tested for use against pirated copies.

Epic Games has been upset at both the large amount of footage leaked that has spoiled most of the single player campaign and the extra work needed from Microsoft who wanted parts of the game redone as a result.

Quote:
"We have a banning system built into our stuff so we can go in and identify certain people. Some people aren't smart about what they do. They'll be disappointed on 20th September when they can't get in and can't play. They may be banned."

Fergusson also said that the leaked version isn't a fair representation of the final version's polish and he also had special message to those who've pirated the game.

"If you don't value this community, you don't value this experience, then we don't value you. I'd rather pick that one bad apple out of the pool so everybody else can have a better time."

Instead of banning the leakers, they could have spent time and money invested in the multiplayer, working on balancing, weapon/player spawns and rates, reducing and balancing the maps themselves, etc.

Played countless hours in one and two, and know those games were unbalanced and broken. Two even more so.

Oh well.

Microsoft announces Gears 3 will have its own pass and it is similar to Mortal Kombat's characters package discount.

Quote:
Microsoft has announced that they will be releasing a Gears of War 3 Season Pass via the Xbox Live Marketplace when the game hits stores on September 20. This Season Pass gives players access to the first four DLC packs and will set you back 2,400 MS points, which is roughly about $30.
The pass makes the entire DLC about 33% cheaper but only if all the packs are bought. The first DLC pack wouldn't show up until November though.

I do as well. The only problem is you're taking a gamble on not hearing whether or not the content is shit before you buy it.

I have been so excited for this game... mainly the single player I love the story. Then I realized something the other day. My wife scheduled for a C-Section that morning, so due to the birth of my son I am going to have to dodge possible spoilers for a few months lol. Me and my wife were kind of amused the other day when we realized the birth of our son Domonic Mark will be the same day they release the game staring Marcus and Domonic. We are easily amused what can I say.

It is crazy how much I want this game. It isn't especially the greatest series ever, but it sold me on buying a 360 and I still love how it plays. Too bad I've got other things to play, and don't need to be spending money right now.
