MR X 93 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 There's boost in 3 where, with the aide of a turbo controller, you could keep spotting an object while a guest keeps picking it up. Do you think they fixed that for this game or do you think it's stay in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blerbman Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 This is thread worthy? Its spotting. I think he's talking about the ribbon boosting in Gears 3 Horde mode, where you die and continually spot the weapons that your second controller keep swapping. This gives you the "Reconnaissance" ribbon, over and over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGoogles Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Yea and so what? It lets people reach the maximum level without putting in any actual work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E10phoenix Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 This won't be a problem weither they fix it or not. It's not like a game breaking exploit or something like the famous crab walking from gears 1 lool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riphade 1 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Well, seeing as there's no Horde, chances are, no. Unless you can select NO bot teammates and have unlimited time before the first wave begins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBajan Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 If this exploit does nothing but earn someone a medal I don't see what's the big deal in making a thread about this. Unless OP used this exploit in 3 and is hoping they won't fix it in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokevf Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 It really is a great way to level up while you sleep/ work/ school ect..... my guess is that it is gone, but whos cares it was comfirmed already that 1-50 is not long at all. Plus I love multiplayer in gears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comatose Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) during the live stream they said spotting is gone all together due to the new grenades Edit: NVM, I just played the demo and spotted someone so yep, still there!

Ugh, was hoping that it was removed. The use of stealth and flanking was such an important aspect of Gears MP; the spotting feature killed that idea. Absolutely no point in trying to work in tandem with someone to flank a camper; all he needs is another camping buddy to spot one of you and your tactic/stealth/element of surprise is completely gone. In Gears 1 and 2 I remember jumping at times when someone completely snuck up on me and splattered me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind I have not played retail, just overrun early release. Fingers crossed that its not in other game modes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've spotted guys running up on teammates so many times even up to 3 times as he ran towards them and they were blissfully unaware as they got gibbed. As I run solo I get a lot of casuals who never really work in a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no surprise when they see you coming spotting feature or not. It's just a way for people without mics to call out enemies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CASCADEYOUTH Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 It's not that big of a deal, the marker is only above your head for like 5 seconds and then it goes away. Plus if you're facing one direction and an enemy is behind you and a team mate spots the guy the icon doesn't even pop up on your screen if you're facing the opposite direction. I still get killed like Gears 1 where enemies pop up out of nowhere. No one even spots anymore in gears 3 anyway just mainly the bots who run around like weirdo's. so I doubt people will spot all the time in judgment.
