Gears of War Megathread V1: I'm coughing up blood that ain't even mine! - Games

[QUOTE=Viorotica;32712107]What? To get Super Reload you need to get Bronze on every starting weapon, meaning the Lancer, Hammerburst, Retro Lancer, Gnasher and Sawn Off. [editline]10th October 2011[/editline] I want Comet and Infinite Ammo.[/QUOTE] Woops mixed things up there. How do you get those medals then?

[QUOTE=The Combine;32712939]Woops mixed things up there. How do you get those medals then?[/QUOTE] 200 Kills with each of those weapons, i got it by doing that in Versus against bots. [editline]10th October 2011[/editline] Also i just got Infinite Ammo. [editline]10th October 2011[/editline] Aww that kinda sucks, i mean you get infinite ammo but only with the starting weapons, so no infinite ammo Flamethrower or Boomshot. That is kind of annoying really since we're having to unlock the mutator, you know spending time to unlock it, but it's only for 5 weapons, it'd make Horde Mode on Insane alot easier if it was infinite ammo with all weapons.

Whooooa whaaat? That completely sucks!

[QUOTE=Reaper3_3;32713974]Whooooa whaaat? That completely sucks![/QUOTE] How so? It even tells you it's only for the starting weapons.

[QUOTE=usaokay;32685414]Got my code since my name, email, and phone # was in their database. YESSSSSSSSSSSS[/QUOTE] Id assume you could call again and be like "Yeah totally didn't get my code." I'm really angry that they couldnt help me. Who wants to call bestbuy and get another code for me? :v: :(

[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;32714876]How so? It even tells you it's only for the starting weapons.[/QUOTE] Still kinda sucks but oh well, it's still good.

[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;32714876]How so? It even tells you it's only for the starting weapons.[/QUOTE] I never read the description, i just assumed, so it's pretty dissapointing.

Oh well.

It is 100.

[QUOTE=Reaper3_3;32717237]It is 100.[/QUOTE] It's 100 for the medals. 200 for the executions (starting weapons) 40 for everything else

Yeah my mistake, 100.

Beat all fifty waves of Horde in one sitting last night. It gets pretty fucking hard during later waves. I also finished campaign on Hardcore. Now I'm working on Campaign on Insane.

Not bad with me and a buddy and 3 pubbies with 1 dropping at wave 7. 43 waves with 4 people aint bad.

Fuck yes, I just solo'ed the last boss on insane difficulty. And I got all the fun mutators.

[url]http://www.g4tv.com/videos/55672/gears-of-war-3-dlc-horde-command-pack-x-play-exclusive/?quality=hd[/url] Shows the new DLC stuff in action. Onyx guard bot is pretty much an onyx guard with a.. robotic voice. He DOES move around and shoots, but it looks kinda weak imo. Will still be cool none the less. Also shows the rest of the DLC. Video is only 2 minutes or so, watch it.

Were you in the beta, but didn't unlock Thrashball Cole? Or you deleted your beta savegame? You can still unlock Thrashball Cole and the flaming camo guns. And here is how. 1. Call Microsoft's service number: 1-800-4-MYXBOX 2. Tell them something along the lines of this "I played in the beta but my unlocks arent showing up in the retail game." 3. The person is going ask this question ALMOST every time: "Is your save data in the same place as your Gears 3 retail data?" always say "YES" 4. Now they're going to make you troubleshoot by doing things like deleting your profile and recovering it, etc. You dont have to do these things just pause for a minute and then say: "Okay, I did that." 5. Now after a while they are going to say "Alright, since we cant get this working I will send you some redeem codes over email is this your correct email. If yes, say yes. If not give them the email you want to receive the code on. 6. You're done, make sure to say thanks for the help. [img]http://gfxuploader.com/images/s2rulau16f7q4zjn9sf.png[/img]

[QUOTE=I ARE REPTAR;32726132]Will it work if i never played in the beta?[/QUOTE] Yeah, I was also wondering this. If I just call and say I participated in the Beta but it isn't showing up, will they take my word for it and give me all the stuff?

I will try this tomorrow and post results I want that damn cole so badly

[QUOTE=I ARE REPTAR;32726161]I will try this tomorrow and post results I want that damn cole so badly[/QUOTE] Make sure to do so. Also try and get key words down and stuff, so we can do it with 100% success rate.

What if they see that I haven't even played the beta? :tinfoil:

I think if you just say it isn't showing up on your profile, that's the thing. It's not like it had any gamescore, so I don't think it's publicly linked to your profile.

[QUOTE=Grim Joker;32721215]What difficulty?[/QUOTE] Obviously the most hardcore of difficulties!!! Normal. :D

You can do it without playing the beta, and I did it already. make sure you have your account info on hand and follow the tutorial.

Uhh someone had to say this but uhm if anyone gets a spare Thrashball Cole code I wouldn't mind getting it :v: or flaming weapons, either one's good

I'm gonna try it now. [editline]11th October 2011[/editline] So far so good, just like you said. [editline]11th October 2011[/editline] At the "Recovering" step. [editline]11th October 2011[/editline] Fuck. Lady said there would be a patch to fix it, no code for me. Maybe I'll try again later. [editline]11th October 2011[/editline] On a different note, the amount of microsoft points I had just increased by 300. What the fuck.

Look at the bright side you got yourself a free* skin of your choice with those 300 points. *free because you didn't pay for the 300 points.

That's true. I totally want the bloody ones.

Ah, I guess they got smart and Epic just decided to do a patch for it rather than giving the codes to everyone who said they earned it. Bummer.
