Game Informer reports that Epic’s new entry into the Gears of War series will see the return of Casual mode, furthering the tradition of aim-assisted gameplay. So for all you gamers out there who aren’t too well versed in the ways of nailing headshots, this is for you.
With the new title, players will be able to enjoy the Casual side of gaming in multiplayer with a new Casual Multiplayer mode. Those who participated in the beta as well as those who have dabbled in Gear of War multiplayer previously will be able to join this new mode. The new multiplayer mode will have new channels specifically for newbies, in hopes to get them trained for the action.
A lot of players may find this offensive, but new players to the series should try it out. jumping into the Gears multiplayer is one of those “sink or swim” situations, and you’re very likely to drown. This is Epic’s way of welcoming the newcomers, and hopefully herding them along into the ranks of the elite. Either that, or it’s a way to offer imminent slaughter to those who decided to rear their newbie faces.
