All this to the aforementioned massive sounding track 'Hammer Meet Anvil.' Massive music for a massive scenario. Defending Anvil Gate felt like the Gears equivalent of the Battle of the Hornburg from LOTR a complete full scale war set in the dead of the night, with a constant barrage of Uruk-hai. First, what a way to start off the chapter. Holy hell, they managed to pack in some of THE MOST AWE-INSPIRING MOMENTS IN GEARS HISTORY for this one act alone.
Which isn't to say the Corpser didn't put up a fight, but her hatchlings were the more vigilant adversaries.Īnd Act 3.
the Brumak seemed to put up more of a struggle than the Corpser it definitely had more of a bead on me than the other squad members. Oddly, the Corpser seemed to target me quite a lot so I don't know if that's random or deliberate. I came back, fired once and the Brumak was destroyed - obviously having taken so much damage from the others. I unloaded my rounds into it but didn't have much ammo so I had what was a pretty leisurely stroll around looking for ammo.
It didn't actually seem to target me once. that Brumak fight sort of illustrated my problem with how much of this plays out.
