Chapter 3 - Forced Entry | Act II Gears of War 3 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Your task is to get into enemy base. You can do it in two ways - quiet (it's only way to get the Cog Tag #7 in this mission) or loud. If you want to get in the base quietly you can't let any guard to blow into a horn (Marcus can't do it too). Start walking down and quickly shoot down first enemy.

Now you will have to eliminate two guards on the wall. You can use it sniper rifle (you will find it on the way to the wall but be quick, because wild tickers can eat it) or normal rifle like lancer.

Now head right. You will reach extensive square which is leading to the main gate. Stand on the square and look how two snipers patrol the wall. When they will be standing in the most distant places quickly shoot them down. You can use yellow explosive barrels to help perform your task. If you are using sniper rifle the task can be a little hard because after take down the first guard you will have to reload very fast and immediately shoot down the second soldier. But you can also use normal rifle, wait to the moment when guards will be in the most distant points, shoot down the first one and then quickly kill the second one.

Of course there is no problem to get into the base in loud way. Then just get on the square and start shooting to the enemies. After few seconds lots of opponents will show on the battlefield so cover in some safe place and start shooting them. In the first place eliminate snipers and gunners in machinegun nests on the wall (the best weapon to do it is sniper rifle). Then you will have kill soldiers, boomers and corpser.

Now pass the main gate and in frontal attack start conquering the base. Look out for machinegun nests, because they will shoot you when you pass the gate.

If you choose quiet way then eliminate some soldiers who will enter to the area from the right and pass through small entrance.

When you will be inside go the right path in tunnel. After a while you will reach a bath with blood and remains. On the ground just near it you will find Cog Tag #7.

Continue forward along tunnel which will lead you to the base. When you get inside the alarm will Activate but you will be in much better position to eliminate opponents than in the frontal attack.

Eliminate all opponents. After that the nearby entrance will open and some boomers will enter to the area. Kill them as fast as you can and pass the gate.

Quickly find some cover and start shooting to the enemies in the last foothold. Watch out especially on the gunner in the machinegun nest. Once the area is clear pull the lever.
