Use Cover
Recommended Videos
Gears of War is a cover-based shooter. You can go out all guns blazing in the campaign on the lower difficulties, but try it on Hardcore or Insane difficulties and you’re likely to find yourself seeing that crimson gear omen a lot. Therefore, take note of this and get used to running to and from points of cover as you navigate the multiplayer map.
Running around the map completely out of cover will make you an easy target for someone who may have picked up the Torque Bow, Longshot, or even the new Dropshot weapon. Think about where you’re moving to and make sure that you’re not about to walk right into the line of fire. It may seem tedious taking your time moving around, but you’ll survive for a heck of a lot longer if you do.
