In Depth–Gears of War 3 Multiplayer–What’s New Part 1

So Marcus and the boys of Delta Squad have been around the battlefield a couple of times now. You know the maps, you know the modes, but what’s next? Gears of War 3 brings a lot of changes to the series. Some of the changes are new innovations, some are borrowed from other popular games and some are long overdue features that the fans have been begging for since the first game in the series hit Xbox LIVE.

Gears of War 3 will release next fall. The delay is giving the team at Epic a chance to add some extra polish and features to the game as well as allowing for a public beta, which is a first for the Gears of War series. There are some definite changes coming to Gears of War, many of which should really get the fans excited. In the meantime let’s take a look at some of the announced features that have been flagged for the next installment:

Have you noticed that no one has been talking about gears lately ?

-Alpha5310d ago (Edited 5310d ago )

Do you realize that it's far from release?

Man_of_the_year5310d ago (Edited 5310d ago )

Dude the game is a year away. When the release date becomes much closer there will be more talk and more advertisements/hype/articles/p romotions..etc. Until then, there are plenty of games to talk about and play.

NoBias5310d ago

Wow, are you kidding me? Give it a few months before release and everyone will talk/know about it. It's Microsoft for gods sakes. Advertisements will be a-plenty.

Beings on Mars will be talking about Gears 3.

dragunrising5310d ago

We're talking about it now aren't we? If the improvements to multiplayer are anything to go by, Gears 3 is going to be great. Dedicated servers and team deathmatch (finally!!!) are pretty exciting for me. The new gametypes I believe also make Gears 3 multiplayer more accessable to the average gamer.

InTheKnow5310d ago

@OffHisRocker...Nothing to talk about???...the game has no equal in the marketplace. No game has the game play and graphics anywhere near Gears. Brutal melee, the craziest weapons around, the most detailed enemies...4 player story based co-op, NEW enemies, horde mode and dedicated servers for multi-player...please, don't go away mad, just go away. If you have a vid of a game that gets even close to this, on any platform, please share...

Gears of War 2 still has a larger fanbase playing it than many other games out there.

Vegeta90005310d ago

That's because that fanbase has nothing else to play.

rlm425309d ago (Edited 5309d ago )

Gears 2 was not a disaster you troll.. The campaign is one of the best seen in the video game. Story, graphics, gameplay all supurb.. The gore and grit so satisfying.

The only thing it had some problems with was Multiplayer (some lag issues) but that's all fixed now and Epic knows what it's doing for number 3. Beta and Dedicated Servers to come ;)

Try harder, i bet you havn't even played it.

REDHULKSMASH5310d ago

Every building better have a door, every window better have an other side and no more buildings or parts of buildings that appear to be 1 foot wide or thick. It's called scale, use it!

Troll_Police5310d ago (Edited 5310d ago )

I'm guessing the beta for Gears 3 will be packaged in the Xbox version of Bulletstorm, but then again MS wouldn't benefit from that. There are no Xbox exclusives coming up that I can think of so I wouldn't be surprised if the beta is included in a Kinect game. MS will not just have a beta without the purchase of one of their games.

NewsForMe5310d ago (Edited 5310d ago )

It's called renting, I did it for the halo 3 beta. I ended up loving Crackdown though.

gamerzBEreal175310d ago

maybe it will be free? haha no wait

kudakadere5310d ago

wow this game is gonna look amazing just like Codename kingdoms and still they have a year in development for it.

I currently play Gears 3 often, especially after the 60 FPS Boost. Gears of War is my favorite gaming franchise, and the Locusts are the coolest faction in history. Gears Judgment will always be a disgrace for not having the Locust in VS multiplayer.

AuraAbjure684d ago (Edited 684d ago )

GoW 3 and Judgement were the last installments before the series went woke and soulless. I'm level 50 in GoW 3 and LOVE it's multiplayer to death. It's just so crispy.
