Clan BwF Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 (edited) Guide Status: 77% Complete Overview: -Estimated achievement difficulty: 4/10 ( 10/10 with "Seriously 3.0") -Offline: 41: (650G) -Online: 9 (350G) -Approximate number of hours to 1000: 150+ for 900G (1200+ with "Seriously 3.0") -Minimum number of playthroughs needed: -Number of missable achievements: None! ( Replay chapters) -Do cheat codes disable achievements? No cheats! -Does difficulty affect achievements? Yes -Glitchy achievements? None! -Unobtainable achievements? None! -Extra equipment needed? Headset or mic for communication is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Also a second controller would help too! Introduction: Step 1: Complete the game in arcade mode (ANY DIFFICULTY) 340G The reason for playing arcade is because of "Seriously 3.0." You need to accumulate 7.5 million points total in arcade and complete 500 chapters in it. Find a friend to complete this together as it will be faster and you will gain "Welcome to Arcade Mode" and "My Fellow Gears" achievements. You should have "Level 5" achievement by the time your done too! Try and collect all collectibles using the guide. If you miss any you can replay chapter or save it for the next playthrough on insane. See Onyx Medals Guide for campaign onyx medals requirements. Step 2: Complete the campaign on insane with 4 people. 195G Use the achievement trading thread for finding 4 people to complete the campaign on insane. See "Thats Just Crazy" achievement for a walkthrough. Finish up any missed collectibles and use the Onyx Medal Guide for working on those onyx medals.

This achievement is stackable and can be done on any difficulty. -Set the difficulty to CASUAL and play by yourself.

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4Y7hv5321E&feature=player_profilepage]Gears of War 3 Beast Mode Gameplay (Footage of Kills with All Characters) - YouTube[/ame] http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/achievements/1401/UPgMJOQ=.jpgEnriched and Fortified 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/site/gp-g.png Complete all 50 waves of Horde mode (any difficulty, any map). Do this on insane playing on the map "Gridlock". Best done with 4 people. I say do this on insane because an onyx medal requires you to do all waves on insane. DOES NOT HAVE TO BE DONE IN 1 SITTING! Failing is good! Your money goes up so you can buy ammo and defenses. Camp where the pistol weapons spawn. Grab weapons that the enemy drops and use it against them. Shields are important! Place them from enemy breaching in and downing you so easily. Upgrade your defenses to slow the enemy down. Every 10 waves the horde gets harder! You can bring yourself back to life for money if you die. It ONLY works once per wave. Here are tips for boss waves (10, 20, 30, 40, and 50) Berserker - You must use the flamethrower to kill him. While he is on fire you can shoot him. There will be more than 1 so BE PREPARED! Brumak - He will spawn at one of the of ends of the map. Save heavy weapons ( Oneshot, boomshot and mulcher) for shooting him. Aim for the head or the gas tanks on his back. Not sure if this is suppose to happen but he can some how glitch into the buildings. Reaver - These should't pose too much trouble. A oneshot and mulcher can take these out fast. Take cover though as they can down you with 1 shot with their rockets. There are at least 3 a boss wave. Gunker - Now when these come you want to be moving around a lot. They will be shooting balls of imulsion at you. Just keep shooting the yellow on him and he will eventually go down. Don't get too close to them.

The fastest to earn would be beast mode. Complete all 12 waves of beast mode on insane without failing. (timer runs out) Four people may be easier but less money for everyone. Destroy barriers, enemies or dummy's to accumulate more time bonuses. Gridlock is a good map to choose as you can see the whole map unlike others. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/achievements/1401/UP8WP2c=.jpgSeriously 3.0 100 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/site/gp-g.png Reach level 100 and earn every Onyx medal. Gaining this achievement would gain you every other achievement in the game. This achievement requires you to get an onyx medal in all 65 medals. This will take more time than both Gears of War 1 and 2 put together. This should be your last achievement for the game too! Most of these can be done in private matches. All 6,000 kills related onyx medals DON'T COUNT IN CAMPAIGN! Check out the medals guide thread and work on them one by one. By the time you have obtained 60,000 kills, 18,000 matches played, beating horde and beast mode on insane you will most likely be level 100 so don't worry about that part of the achievement. You will have to be a very dedicated player if you want this achievement. It's going to take well over 100s and 100s of hours. Maybe in the future there will be an event which doubles how fast you get this. It may be a while though. An easy way to get The field engineer onyx medal is during horde mode. Have a friend shoot the turret during modification mode and keep tapping the "Y" button to replenish ammo. Rinse and Repeat to 1000 modifications. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/achievements/1401/UPiV3Ss=.jpgWelcome to Versus 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/site/gp-g.png Kill 10 enemies in Team Deathmatch (Standard or Casual).

If you have any Gears achievements from the 2 previous gears then you will get this achievement as soon as you hit start at the main menu when you first load up the game. If not then like Cliff said,"Your damage to enemies is increased and you take more damage." After you get 10 kills the training wheels are off and will have the achievement. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/achievements/1401/UP03NtI=.jpgWait, What Time is it? 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/site/gp-g.png Earn the maximum Consecutive Match Bonus in Versus multiplayer (Standard or Casual).

You must participate in 30 Gears events. These are at the main menu. Check the calender or http://www.Gearsofwar.com for events coming up. This could take months till there are enough but i'm thinking there will be about 3 to 4 events a month. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/achievements/1401/s1.jpgRespect for the Dead 5 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/site/gp-g.png Your respect for the dead earned you access to Griffin's special weapons stash.

Clan BwF Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 What's goin on in this thread... I am working on fixing this. I am working on spacing everything out. I already have recorded videos of how to do some of the achievements. Its my first guide. When I get the spacing and what not done then the description on how to do it and the videos should be up soon. I'm just having problems formatting everything.

Method Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Okay everyone, chill out and let him try and make a guide. He's new to the process not familiar with the little intricacies that go along with it. If he doesn't do anything with it then the mods can easily delete the thread if it's truly abandoned. Thanks!

aosiding Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Nice job on the guide, hopefully this can get stickied soon. I'll continue to help out as much as possible, and everyone we need more positive input here. All you guys complaining, you should maybe make a guide yourself first before you talk smack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
