Gears of War (Xbox 360): achievement guide

Gears of War (Xbox 360): achievement guide Original Xbox 360 list, including its multiplayer additions. Not Ultimate Edition or Reloaded. The first thing to get straight is the version. The old Xbox 360 achievement list is different from the remasters. The Windows original is different again. Don't spend hours doing the right thing in the wrong version. Campaign: 28 achievements Start with the tutorial route. For an efficient run, play Hardcore first, collect the tags, then complete Insane once unlocked. Higher difficulties also award the lower-difficulty completions. Bring a co-op partner if that makes the difficult sections more manageable. Original achievement guide (https://t.co/ynbd44rUjN) Prison Breakout: finish the prison tutorial. The fifteen act achievements each require finishing the named act on the named difficulty. Don't change down midway through an act you're trying to credit: - Completed Act 1 on Casual - Completed Act 2 on Casual - Completed Act 3 on Casual - Completed Act 4 on Casual - Completed Act 5 on Casual - Completed Act 1 on Hardcore - Completed Act 2 on Hardcore - Completed Act 3 on Hardcore - Completed Act 4 on Hardcore - Completed Act 5 on Hardcore - Completed Act 1 on Insane - Completed Act 2 on Insane - Completed Act 3 on Insane - Completed Act 4 on Insane - Completed Act 5 on Insane Mercenary / Soldier / Commando: finish the entire campaign on Casual / Hardcore / Insane respectively. Check your act completion records before repeating the whole game for a missing unlock. Campaign list (https://t.co/m5fB4a1kbs) Time to Remember / Honor-Bound / For the Fallen: collect 10 / 20 / all 30 COG tags. Use the companion location guide; these do not require a particular difficulty. My Love for You Is Like a Truck: defeat a Berserker on Hardcore or above. Lure it into breaking the required doors, then use the Hammer of Dawn outdoors. Broken Fingers: defeat the Corpser on Hardcore or above. Attack its exposed belly, then its mouth, pushing it backward onto the final platform. Destroy the two platform fastenings to finish the encounter. Corpser strategy (https://t.co/nonSij4IDk) A Dish Best Served Cold: defeat RAAM on Hardcore or above. His Kryll shield must clear before your shots can hurt him. Torque Bow explosions help expose him; save ammunition for those openings and stay in the light. Zen and the Art of Reloading / Zen and the Art Part 2: perform 25 perfect reloads total / five consecutively. Press reload again when the indicator reaches the narrow perfect section, not merely the wider successful-reload area. Clusterluck: get ten separate triple kills. Use explosives on grouped enemies; the prison-door encounter offers an early three-enemy opportunity. Requirements (https://t.co/m807lQ8nIF) Co-op: three achievements Dom-curious: one chapter as Dom. Domination: ten different chapters as Dom. I Can't Quit You Dom: every act as Dom. Join the other player's campaign rather than hosting as Marcus. Keep a chapter checklist and finish each chapter together; repeating one chapter doesn't replace ten different chapters. Co-op guide (https://t.co/pbPeBNczYE) Ranked multiplayer: eighteen achievements For this Xbox 360 version, use ranked matches for the following list. Campaign kills and casual/private matches do not replace the ranked requirements. Ten achievements ask for 100 qualifying kills each: - Fall Down Go Boom: Boomshot. - Pistolero: pistol. - The Nuge: Torque Bow. - I Spy with My Little Eye: Longshot. - Don't Hurt 'Em: Hammer of Dawn. - It's a Massacre: Lancer chainsaw. - Curb Appeal: curb stomp. - Capital Punishment: execution. - Is It a Spider: grenade attached to an enemy. - The Money Shot: headshot. Keep the action distinct. A weapon kill isn't automatically a headshot, and a grenade thrown at someone's feet isn't a grenade tag. Weapon requirements (https://t.co/s8plTsxPuy) Don't You Die On Me: revive teammates 100 times. Watch for the downed state, reach them safely, then use the revive interaction. A Series of Tubes: host 50 ranked matches and stay through their completion. Always Remember Your First: finish one ranked match. Don't Hate the Player: finish a ranked match with the highest score of either team. Mix It Up: win in Warzone, Execution and Assassination. Around the World: win on Canals, Clocktower, Escalation, Fuel Depot, Gridlock, Mansion, Mausoleum, Rooftops, Tyro Station and War Machine. Can't Touch Me: win ten ranked matches without dropping a round. Seriously...: accumulate 10,000 ranked kills. Treat this as a separate long-term project, not something the campaign will finish for you. Legacy tracking can be inconsistent, so a displayed total isn't a guarantee of an immediate unlock. Ranked guide (https://t.co/aBeExl7xIV), tracking caveat (https://t.co/A5EMVbEXXn) Added multiplayer achievements: eight These are separate from the ranked-only weapon grind. Use matches with at least three rounds where specified, and do not accidentally use the remasters' revised requirements. You Down With E.P.I.C?: win on each of the six downloadable maps: Old Bones, Raven Down, Garden, Subway, Bullet Marsh and Process. Matches must have at least three rounds. Green Thumb / Mind the Gap / Purdy Mouth / All That Juice: win twenty matches of at least three rounds on Garden / Subway / Bullet Marsh / Process respectively. THIS! IS! ANNEX!: complete 100 Annex matches of at least three rounds; personally capture at least three objectives in each match. Inconceivable!: win twenty Annex rounds by a margin smaller than five points. A four-point win qualifies; a five-point win doesn't. Nub Pwn3r: win twenty Annex rounds without the opponents scoring. Keep separate columns for match wins, round wins and personal captures. Those are three different requirements. Added-content list (https://t.co/qqkgwqTolX) Before you start the online grind This guide describes the unlock conditions, not a guarantee that a public lobby will be available when you search. Check the current service and playlist situation for the exact version. Don't reset saves or install unofficial achievement unlockers to fix a counter. The older game can take substantial multiplayer time beyond finishing its story. Original Windows / Games for Windows LIVE: differences This is the 2007 release, not Windows Ultimate Edition. It has 50 achievements / 1,000 gamerscore. Use the Xbox 360 campaign, boss, reload, collectible and Dom instructions above, with these changes: - The collectible targets are one-third, two-thirds and all of its 33 tags, rather than the Xbox 360 30-tag set. - The extra Brumak campaign section is present. - Shock Therapy: defeat its Brumak on Hardcore or above. - Not So Serious ...: 10,000 kills in player matches. - Seriously ...: the separate 10,000 ranked-kill target remains. - A Series of Tubes is absent. - The eight Xbox 360 added-map/Annex achievements are absent. - The ten named weapon/action achievements and Don't You Die On Me work differently: perform the required action in 100 different multiplayer matches, each configured for at least three rounds. Player or ranked matches qualify. Doing 100 kills in one match is not the same thing. For example, get one Boomshot kill, one pistol kill and one revive in a qualifying match to advance those three separate match counters. Finish the match, record it, then repeat. Multiple successes of the same type in that match don't turn it into multiple qualifying matches. Windows list (https://t.co/SXhUNLrkNh), Windows walkthrough (https://t.co/JFkuIpDq8f) Around the World on Windows needs nineteen maps, not the Xbox 360 original's ten: the ten above, plus Bullet Marsh, Courtyard, Garden, Gold Rush, Old Bones, Process, Raven Down, Sanctuary and Subway. Ranked wins are required. Windows map checklist (https://t.co/kyo4li3o8i) The old Windows build has 33 tags. The three extra-chapter tags are sometimes labelled31–33 in legacy guides even though they occur BEFORE the train tags. Use locations rather than numbering to reconcile old guides. Windows extra tags (https://t.co/dxGt2uP8ih) GFWL installation, sign-in and matchmaking are legacy-service dependencies. No current firsthand service test was performed for this draft; don't present the old walkthrough's estimated completion time or unobtainable count as a fresh service guarantee.
