Gears Of War 3 - Beast Mode Insane (Solo)

[@ThatOneMan830]

Holy shit man, you pulled what took me and a team of friends 2+ hours back in the day single-handedly. Your pick choices, strats, aim and mechanical grasp were fuckin’ impeccable.

[@ShadowNova300]

Tbh this was also technically my first attempt at it... I tried this YEARS ago but gave up. I was expecting it to take days.

Amazing shit, doing this on your own, nice to see the older gears still getting love. The day the original gears games come to pc you already know this is the first thing I'm going for

[@ShadowNova300]

Same, If they ever remastered 2 and 3 I'd be playing gears every day again.

With Gears E day coming in a couple of years (maybe next year, but I doubt it), I wouldn't be surprised if they remade or remastered the Gears Trilogy.

[@cristodemonte1690]

when i was a teen, i played this gamemode all the time, the things is, most of my teens age, i could not play with Xbox live, so, i played alone on this game mode all the time to be exact. I maxed out the medal for this game mode alone. it's seems sad, but i got my fair share of fun.

[@nachoeee690]

Aye man me too, I played most of my games 2008-2012 offline cuz I didn't get Xbox live until Black ops 2 came out lol, it sucks too cuz I had like 5000 gamerscore on my profile then made my xbox live account and it took all my achievements away

[@chawkz]

Same, I played gears 2 horde offline heaps as a teen then as had intermittent internet. My mum would cut the internet off by calling the telco company 😢😂

[@TCUberGhost]

​@@chawkzit was awesome to finally get xbox live and use the kantus effectively. 5 players on beast was a massacre for the COG

[@matthewl2036]

I played a lot of games offline when I was a teenager. In the end, I managed to get internet but by then not many people played gears of war 3 or other games (people switching to the Xbox one) I always tried to grind beast mode to get the savage Theron guard but always failed at the end.

[@thicctranslations352]

Same here bro was trying my hardest to grind to get the Theron sentinel unfortunately its unlock description in the skin sections says complete beast mode on all difficulties yet when you view it through its codex system it says obtain “I’m a beast medal” which you need to complete all difficulties without failing a round. It took me 2 hours on insane with constant failures only to find that out 😂😂

Hopefully gears of war E-day brings back Beast mode 💯. Still my favorite gears game mode next to horde

[@l-shadow1775]

Definitely its been too long gears of war 4 and 5 should've had beast mode but coalition chickened out on that hopefully gears of war e day has all the modes including beast mode that we all played back on classic gears of war

I like how at 7:35 when you stuck the grenade and you died then she says "OH CRAP" and just explodes lmao🤣

Shame they did away with the playable Grinder, too.

[@jacobdearman4964]

I wish we had The Lambent too

[@PsychoRaven]

I'm guessing there was supposed to be a chance to have a Theron and other creatures as there are empty spaces on the selection screen, clearly about the cancelled dlc for the game

[@SupremeOracle]

Imagine how much easier it'd be though. Like the grinder... just step back & grind 😂

[@KaimataHeine]

imagine being a cog soldier and seeing a lone locus shoot down marcus and sticking cole with a grenade that explodes, killing cole and a cog soldier nearby. All within 10 seconds lol 13:40

[@ubermorpth2208]

Man you've made me realize now more then ever: I hope that rumor of Gears 1-3 coming to steam is true, I forgot this game ran at 60 fps on 360 (unless it's modified in someway), I also miss the profile progression you can farm with without even playing online

[@GoodMorningKanye]

I’m pretty sure this is played on the Xbox series X for 60fps

[@decriper1097]

Nah fuck that shit, buy an Xbox lol

[@ShadowNova300]

This is on Series X using FPS boost (its just part of the system and certain games with the option, its all part of the system) nothing more. But the 360 version was 30 fps not 60.

Really brings back nostalgia. Gears 5 really dropped the ball not putting beast mode in they had everything for it

[@Jitzfack]

Too much work

[@CatNigga]

straight up had a section in the campaign where you possess the Swarm n everything

[@illeagle666]

This game has aged so well

[@SnarkyMalarkey]

Bro that was awesome! I never got the Savage Theron either because i don't have friends to play this, now, i wanna try to get this solo using your strategy and map!

[@phantomeye5199]

Wow. That was amazing. Well done. Now this is totally insane on solo all by yourself. Very impressive work!

[@pimpinjt123]

I remember beating this game mode solo pretty often when i was younger. I would start out with the wretch and savage drone, then the centipede would carry me the rest of the game until i was able to unlock berserker and armoured kantus.

[@premeirsteam]

That was a difficult task soldier but you pulled through well done

[@iamhorseraddish]

Solo beast was my fav thing to do as a kid, I was only 11 having a blast on this hard asf mode.

[@N00BPUN1SH3R]

mad props for this! Always thought is was near impossible solo, I did it back in the day with a team of people from the Gers forums, when they were still a thing also I heard Gears music start playing during wave 11 and 12 , never heard that before. Did you lay that over the top? Or is that a solo insane Beast mode thing?

[@ShadowNova300]

I added that in.

[@RylanTheWolf]

Damn, doing this solo is insane. It took me and 4 friends about a month to complete this back in 2015. And the worst part is all my Gears 3 stats got reset in 2021, idk why. I want to get the Savage Theron again and the medal but haven't been able to.

[@Beneben20]

It took me so many tries to do this solo. Very good stuff man

[@zzurge1173]

Man it was so cool playing as the locust,the swarm just doesnt compare

[@DA-wg5cz]

Imagine OVERRUN + BEAST MODE, holy shit.

[@jamessorensen4374]

I enjoyed playing this on insane solo it was so fun

[@isaiahcasas462]

I tried it solo multiple times on insane and my highest was wave 11. So I got two friends to play with me who are not that good in skill and I was using them as bait and to take shots so I can kill the heroes and give out damage. Eventually we did it and we all three for the Savage Theron Guard

[@robertoproz]

13:53 Cole: oh shit *walks into ally* Obviously doesn't want to go alone.

[@revan5293]

I feel that so hard man

[@Levi-dz7zx]

A neat thing i noticed with the beserker is when your in fire the beserkers attacks are way faster. And so is its run. Which if your able to get them to bunch up after downing one you can get them all in one go especially wave 12

[@leanmachine3251]

This was the best gears ever made

[@Tea_Ex]

I remember how hard it was for me getting this, though I did it on Blood Drive. Good stuff man 👍👍

[@mattiag1846]

As much as I loved this mode, I hated the fact that the goal of completing it on maximum difficulty with a full team was solely for the host 😐 Only 1 time did I undertake this challenge, I would have really liked to complete this goal at the time but for connection reasons I never had the opportunity... Damn whoever had this idea of ​​giving the objective only and exclusively to the host

[@whisperingcrown591]

I just did this with my cousin (not solo obviously) for the first time the weekend before I moved across the country. Such a blast

[@robertoproz]

They should have a locust campaign like RAAMs shadow.

[@terrellpablo2395]

Real. Im trying to get savage theron

[@ShadowNova300]

Tbh part of the reason for my uploading was so people could use it as a reference cause I was having issues finding groups even in matchmaking. I chose Clocktower strategically cause its small so you don't waste too much time running after death, decent amount of cover to block sightlines so you don't have 10 enemies shooting you at once, and using DBNO enemies as bait to get the "Execution only" ones out from behind laser wires. Also I like choosing the Savage Grenadier cause if you nade tag an enemy it usually outright kills them (they don't go DBNO) even if they're a Hero... usually.

[@terrellpablo2395]

I've been trying on raven down but its just too hard

[@jayson5712]

[@blutazathot7916]

Amazing keep up the good content ❤

[@TheRealYeipi]

I would add Sniper Drone to level 1 beasts. (only 4 bullets, after that each round has a 15 sec cooldown.) Grinder to lever 2 (higher cost) Theron Guard/Sentinel to level 3 (only 4 bolts, same as sniper drone but with a boltok to deal damage while the torque reloads) and Palace Guard to level 4 (More health, starts with lancer and can pick up any weapon from dead COG Heroes) Hope they give us a beast mode 2.0 someday.

[@ShadowNova300]

I remember the first time I played beast and didnt see the grinder I got sad.

[@Pack52022]

I tried this solo years ago and got clapped thought it was impossible. Raged many times because i felt the time given was unfair lol

[@dyltopher]

I lost count of all my failed attempts at getting the savage theron. I always thought it was impossible, even more difficult than the main story on insane. Honestly you made it seem pretty doable and linear on this map, it's all about drawing them out of their defenses.

[@ShadowNova300]

Yes it is. Back in the day when I did this I tried to DBNO the Heros that had to be executed and tried to get through the barriers in time. That was years ago and that NEVER WORKED in my favor. Basically the strat is destroy Turrets, Sentries, and Silverbacks asap because enemies get on SBs and Turrets which make them harder to kill. Then shoot and kill enemies that can be killed by non-executions (stranded/Cog Gears) or use them as bait to lure out Heroes that only die by Executions (Marcus, Dom). Whenever there is one enemy left they will rush to where ever you are unless there is a turret or silverback up, they will go to that instead of you which is also why I shoot turrets rather than the person themselves sometimes.

[@emiliobolanosmedina3488]

How do you kill heroes when they are downed without having to punch them or executing them, i tried this the other day and a pop up would appear saying i had to execute them.

[@ShadowNova300]

If you're really close to them you can shoot them, you basically have to be in melee range but you can shoot them. With the Savage Grenadier, if you nade tag an enemy it just outright kills Heroes (no DBNO even) most times. Which is why you see me trying/comitting so hard on some nade tags. But it has to be a tag specifically, if you just throw it, it'll just down them.
