Gears Of War 3 will feature a reworked cover system and underwater missions for the first time, Edge can reveal.

 

Developer Epic Games is set to evolve the franchise’s combat by introducing Locust foes with tentacle-like appendages which are capable of extending to player cover spots.

 

Meanwhile, the COG members of Delta Squad will be equipped with explosives that can travel beneath the ground to take out enemy cover positions, our US publishing source told us.

 

While the first two Gears games offered mobile cover in the form of objects like burnt out cars that could be pushed around, Gears Of War 3 will feature a heavy duty mech suit the COGs can utilise both for protection and to wreak havoc.

 

All of these new features will be present in the singleplayer campaign and multiplayer modes, Edge understands.

 

We were also informed that the game will be set during the summer and introduce a number of new environments to the series, including underwater locations. The end of the last title saw the COGs sink mankind’s last city, Jacinto, and flood the Hollow in order to take out the Locust Horde beneath the surface.

 

Epic’s Unreal Engine 3 demo at GDC in March showed off jungle or foliage-heavy areas, which could also make an appearance in Gears Of War 3 - Epic previously used GDC 2008 to debut Unreal Engine upgrades that went on to show up in Gears 2.

 

Gears Of War: Jacinto's Remnant, a novel written in conjunction with Epic, continues the Gears story from the conclusion of the second game. One story strand focuses on the island of Vectes, a former COG naval base sporting fertile lowlands, forests and a river. This setting could be ideal to show off the developer’s new Unreal Engine features were it to show up in Gears Of War 3.

 

Gears Of War 3 has yet to be officially announced. However, Epic design director Cliff Bleszinski is set to reveal a new game on Monday’s episode of US talk show Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and it could be on the agenda. He was originally set to appear on tonight’s show - the same day we predicted Gears Of War 3 would officially be unveiled – but said that the change in schedule would allow Epic “to take a couple more days to polish” its game.

:ranting: is there anything which isn't sound interesting? its GeOW!!! everything is interesting here :console:

 

The mechs sound stupid. But then again I have faith in Epic. After all Gears is the most influential game this gen, even more than Halo, CoD etc etc.

I don't know about you but Gears 1 and 2 had very good SP campaigns, so I expect this one to be great as well. I prefer Gears 1 over 2 though. Played through it 5 times.

i liked 1. the only reason i didn't like 2 was the final boss fight. the riftworm lvl was awesome. 

 

 

what i meant was that they make even a better SP campaign.

Dear god. Dont compare Modern "whack a mole" Warfare to an actual game with real gameplay elements like proper AI, smart level design etc etc.

 

 

Halol that BITCH!

+100. I loved the games to bits. Spectacular action, no pretenses over story, just take your chainsaw and whirrrrrr around :)

I found Gears 1 way, way better than Gears 2, although I'm yet to finish Gears 2. I have about 30 minutes worth left. :D

 

Although its been much longer since I played Gears 1, there are more memorable moments that I can remember from that, than from Gears 2. Loved Horde mode though :)

 

 

 

peace

lets hope they fix multiplayer this time around.

 

+1

 

 

I hope they make the game a bit darker like Gears 1. Somehow, I didn't like the washed out gfx of Gears 2(At least in SP). Gears 1's darker tone was better IMO :)
