Joined Oct 6, Messages 6, When Epic announced they were delaying Gears of War 3 six months solely for "strategic reasons", they clearly stated there would be an open beta.

Well, it's no longer fucking open. You now have to preorder the piece of shit to get access. Why the fuck would I preorder this game when it took the pricks 18 months to fix all the ridiculous problems of Gears of War 2? And the game is still glitched with things that delete all of your achievement progress if you don't quit out of the game at a certain menu while holding down five buttons while saying seven Hail Marys.

Fuck Epic. Joined Sep 30, Messages I don't understand this thread. Are you annoyed that Epic delayed the game? Are you upset that you don't get to play it for free? Why would you care about an incomplete, beta version of a game which, in your own words, is a "piece of shit"? And also, there still is a difference between 'open beta' and 'demo', even though the industry has all but brought that difference down to a matter of semantics nowadays.

They never said anyone and everyone who wanted to would be able to play the game. Over the course of the beta, two additional game modes--Capture the Leader and King of the Hill--will be added. The Gears of War 3 multiplayer trial will last three weeks and will be curb-stomped on May Gamers who play the Gears of War 3 beta will earn exclusive content that will be transferred to retail copies when the game launches this fall.

The beta of Gears of War 3 allows the most curious and dedicated to discover what Epic is doing to redeem themselves and discover the novelties and corrections implemented, and even the nuances that are forming the personality of the gameplay.

Before the beta was opened to the public and reduced to two maps, it was possible for us to play in a phase in which four maps were available, of which we are going to talk. Right from the menus we can see something more comprehensive and more varied, putting the Epic series at the level of what has been seen in the Call of Duty series since and which has since been emulated and improved several times since. We can choose the base character we want, there are five at the moment either in the COGs or in the Locust, we can choose the two weapons we want to have as pre-defined something that we can now do during the battle while we wait to be reborn in the battle and change the skins of our weapons we can gain new ones by fulfilling specific objectives for each one, such as eliminating a certain number of enemies with it.

In the style of what Call of Duty has made it imperative, during the matches we are winning medals that we can later view in the statistics and scoreboards menu. This type of novelty can have two readings, completely different but both valid. What is indisputable is that Gears of War 3 in its multiplayer component is now more robust, more complete and more rewarding.

Going beyond the menus and the news it has to offer, it is time to finally enter the battlefield and here Gears of War 3 left us with great expectations. The various errors related to the animations of the characters and how they seemed to offer a completely unreasonable way of reacting to certain situations seem completely absent. They move in a way that becomes completely natural and the gestures seem to reinforce a more credible attitude.

This coupled with a greater balance between the weapons makes Gears of War 3 a much more competent and fun game than ever, according to the beta it allows for perspective.
