If you still don`t have Gears of War 3 go to: goo.gl\k3U6R

[TheMoshPanda]

Do these tips work on GoW2/3?

[iRenegades1]

when you say use LB u mean LT you retard

[Darkscoper]

@iRenegades1 Way to figure it out smart guy. You deserve a cookie for all your hard work. And a Nobel Prize fro being a douche. Congratulations. Seriously.

[mrfreeze709]

this tutorial is trash hahaha

[MCKT2806]

I remember this video like it was yesterday :) too bad the channel didn't continue

[coaltrain767]

the reason your blindfires dont pop poples head is cuz your action setting have your auto aim on and auto center off. the best way to fix that is to turn ur auto aim off and auto center on. try this and you should get twice the blindfires as normal:)

[ivnmessi]

Very very very good dear friend. I learn to much with your tutorial. Congrats bro!!

[bud1q2w]

good vid but pop shots are not luck 

[fatsobackup]

"soon the heads will come". ahhh come jokes

[MrISniiPE]

@SESTaylor

lol he's a good mlg player? Even though GOW 1 hasnt been on the pro circuit for a year and a bit now? lol....

[GearsGuide]

@MrISniiPE its still played competitivly in europe. check out ecl.eu

technically cant call people MLG Pro, but you get the drift. ECL Pro mayba haha

[THEjkllkkljkljkl]

this game fails hard

i want to use a sniper all the time

there should be instant infinite respawn

[TheBlackDelorian]

great video but writing dissapeared 2 quick

[MrGOWBEAST]

i like how this kid thinks that pop-shots and blind-fires require all luck lol

[FunProjects]

@MrGOWBEAST Blindfires and Pop shots depend Largely on luck.

in the video, like 5 shots are fired. EACH time it goes in a different direction. you might be able to know the area the blindfire will go towards, but it will hit a random spot within that area.

therefore blindfire = mostly luck, because ITS RANDOM

I cant believe after 3 years, people still need to be told that.

[MrGOWBEAST]

@FunProjects yea i guess ur right

[theUKOK]

thanks!

this vid gave ideas about how to improve my snipe!

[SammyGears0fWar1]

If u think that blindfire are luck that's because u have no skillz at snipe -- if u don't know that when u blindfire u need to put ur snipe a little bit high then when u no scope that's because u really suck -- poor video

[MajorPwnage96]

Awesome guide, you rock at sniping! I don't want to play against you. I'm gonna subscribe.

[MrISniiPE]

@MajorPwnage96

Dude this is old I think anyone now could beat this guy lol ...

[MajorPwnage96]

@MrISniiPE I couldn't. Everyone could beat me at Gears now. I know this is old.

[SnowMan2595]

dis video iz COOL!

[RaininXtacy21]

Op your a dumbass blindfires are NOT luck at all you set up the shot by aiming at the head and that's why u fail

[LiLKidDiscox]

@RaininXtacy21 Yeahh i no right

[RaininXtacy21]

@LiLKidDiscox lol he hardaims at their head and then blindfires and wonders why he misses so much

[LiLKidDiscox]

@RaininXtacy21 I Know hahahaha

[tekness362]

ill help use wiff the sniper training i suck too -_-

[LilDom225]

great tips! :D

[zackyluvera7x]

[StrykerGuy234]

[willydubs3]

[StrykerGuy234]

@willydubs3 ahaha ya im ten haha nnoooooootttttt n arent u cool cursin! it just shows you have a poor vocabulary soo stop cursin

[XfunkyXmonkeyX123]

this is old....  u suck :X

[BombchuMassacre]

"Sooner or later the heads will come."

Sounds like something.. SHE said!

[xxxTH43L12xxx]

luck 100% o_<

[johnmotox11871]

this is just common sense

[PersonalizedGaming]

Does nobody realize that the reasons blindfires don't go in the same place is because the person's arm moves up and down so in order to shoot in the same place, the arm has to be where it was before.

[riphead911]

Senselock, thats gears 2, epic ruined the series with that. Hopefully GoW3 will be better...

[riphead911]

That was the best and longest tutorial i've seen for sniping on this game. I was looking to get back into and was checking to see if there were any techniques I missed the first time around. Safe to say there were, and most of them are on this video. Good job, and the heads will be rolling. Di4L x MoTioNz.

[tybike]

blind fire isnt luck . u just gotta know how to do it. but if ur host its alot easier. i do it all da time on gow2

[gearsfreak1100]

Here's a last one: nevr run in a straight line. Kinda jump akwardly in crazy directions while running, so your opponet will lose ammo and go away to get some while you get a beter gun.

[ShurtyxJxRxC]

ur bf's were missin cuz u used a hardaim first, if u look closely when u let go of ur hardaim the thing goes above their head

[MrNaughtyHands]

do people still play GoW? i stopped playing after GoW2 came out..horrible what they did to that game

[bungie253]

blindfires arent 100% luck all u have to do is to know your tv very well and where the middle is and u try to get the tip of ur sniper aiming at the enimies head then boom HEADSHOT

[ZachXFerdX]

good vid but if you're looking to get blindfires, i do agree that they are mostly luck, but you want to aim their heads in the exact center of your screen for a better chance in getting a blindfire headshot kill. 5/5

[tsunamikevin17]

...spelled practice wrong

[jc2753]

No, he didn't. In the UK, it;s spelled "practise".

[tsunamikevin17]

o okay, thank for sharing

[pwnagenuss]

there english they splled it right.

[willydubs3]

@tsunamikevin17 U. R. DUMB.

[JoLeKo1075]

Wow nice vid thnx for tutorial :D

[worldsworstsk8er]

you rock at sniping!

[xxG3ARxG0Dxx]

Whats the name of song in the intro?

[gogeta486]

I do however disagree that blindfires are pure luck, Tell me this, if I were to stick a barrel to your head, and blindfire (yes its a blindfire and still a barrelstuff, but a blindfire indeed) Your saying I would miss?

[goonodeath]

@gogeta486 Real life =/= gears of war.

[FunProjects]

questions is.. wheres the skill in that?

[amartinez97]

Who gives a fuck about hte skill?

[CrazyEmiliano]

Professional, funny tutorial. 5 stars 4 sure!

[gogeta486]

Agreed! I am a very well sniper I would have to say, not talking trash or anything I just believe 2 years to make me more experienced, and I found this tutorial very handy, 5/5 stars.

[DaDoubleLsistaz]

thanks for the tips these will come in handy!

[lordocow]

ahhh i remeber watching this vid and going into a match trying to set up these shots and i would take forever now if there set up i get em basically first try or a couple bullets

[iViaNiAc27]

yeah lol me too

[weilwen]

I just had my first superman XD

[JeLLoHxDuH]

Message for tryouts for DuH.

-JeLLoH xX DuH

[Krypt0niteIx]

Few things I find plain stupidity blindfires are not luck it's skill supermans and spidermans and cover shots are lucky trust me I Noe k thank if yu really wana snipe good add me on xbox kryptonite x Od peace

[Baynham3]

blindfires are luck but u there are ways of makin em more likely to work but because it wont work EVERY time it is still classed as luck ;) btw barrel stuffs, round corner and over cover do not really count as blindfires as ur barrel is still in or next to their head :P

[forrest49]

I can snipe in halo like a champ but gears is way different. It's obviously easier seeing as the terrain levels are the same. But i hate the 1 bullet thing.

[bloodDem0n25]

the reason its so hard is because of all the head movements

[santran89]

I beg to differ, kind sir. I've played Halo and have been able to dominate with the sniper by nailing the headshots, which, by the way, were pretty easy. The reason why it's so easy in Halo 3 is because their head basically stays in the same general area when they're running around and you can get a clear shot from the front, side or back. The different terrain levels don't really hinder my sniping, unless they're pretty high above me.

[senselocke]

Also, in Halo, when you put a bullet through something's head, it dies.

In GoW, when you put a bullet through someone's head, it might knock off their glasses, knock off their hat, or give them a headache. But it won't even make them react or blink unless it's an Active Reload.

I destroy with a sniper rifle on UT, Quake, all the way back to Goldeneye, but I can't stand GoW rifle logic.

[santran89]

so true. many times it seems that the enemy keep surviving your headshots. I usually give Epic the benefit of the doubt and say that maybe their shoulder got in the way of the headshot or something. I'm at the end of my rope, though, cause I remember being on host and a few people survived.

[santran89]

Gears 1 sniping is pretty difficult because their head moves around so much, and don't even get me started about the bullet latency.

[flameomega1]

you mean you hate how the gears sniper is bolt action and the halo sniper is semi auto?

[Turkey47217]

some of the stuff was nice but.

but most of it just thought people how to be scrubs/noobs

if you really want to be good don't melee or active not even in a tough spot.

even so i still think your vid was use full

[iamnub672]

woah!! how u gots 2 bullets in teh sniper!

[kratorions]

blindfire isnt complete luck but i admit they are really hard to do but yeah u need to be a little lucky to but still nice vid

[owler4444]

This kids not even that good..sniping in this game is the same as most things you will try throughout life...it CAN be hard at the start (Depending on natural skill) but once you can do it, its just a cakewalk..so all the newbs watching this will be able to make there own vids like this in about a week...plus sniping in gears one is a fucking joke..its easy as shit..you just need to point in the general head area (depending on lag) and its a headshot..sniping in gears one is for fuckin noobs imo

[xL33dZxCoRkYx]

lmao owler dno whu yu fink u r but i put money on ur no like butter so stop thinkin your good coz no 1 cares

[craziboisnipe]

yea but what about when you hit there head and it doesnt register????? happens to me all the time, and epic fails to inhance the game

[pwnagenuss]

LB is not aiming lol

[FRr3AkOnALEaSh]

Everything is pretty good except for the blindfire part, there not luck lol

[iProdigyy]

Blindires are like 60% luck and 40% skill. All you got to do is try to put the head on the center of ur screen and, pray the bullet goes straight lol. It does take some luck.

[AdoflHilter]

i taught him that

[SetTheSunOnFire]

haha my signature shot is in heree

[therambo220]

Best Gears Guide Ever.

[PIMPOFNJ1994]

damn this guy has amzing accuracy

[ryanboy13]

does any1 no if when ur on multiplayer not on xbox live just against bots if when u pick character and gun you can have another gun instead of just a lancer and hammerburst if so can u tell me

[14spag14]

alot of ppl think that blindfiring is luck in someways it is and in some ways its not.e.g: to actaully get a blindfire head shot u aim at the head move ur aim up and to the left a littlie that will get u a blindfire. remba wen u come out of aim ur ur sniper moves down so that means u hav to move it up alittle more. eventaully blindfire will come naturaly over time of pracitsing

[CoCaCoLaX1]

fukin noob, wat you explained at the end is called POPSHOT <.<

[ThePedge]

haha remember he made this over 2 years ago... He is a good Gears player with and without sniper, maybe when he made this he wasnt aware it was called a popshot.

Some people call it a quickscope

[joshhowie11]

spelt practice wrong ?

[fifa08ronaldhino]

dude luck=noob

skill=pro

remember this and just keep practiscing.......u just become better not lucky......gud vid though

[rgfodestruction]

You're an idiot.. How are you going to tell players that are pro in the game that they are wrong?

[HooplahBoyzAtTwelve]

actually, you can AIM a blidfire. Active reloads go perfectly through the middle every time. While normal shots will not be dead center. Only around the middle.

[KyockLee123]

I know, I don't get what he's talking about.

[jc2753]

Active reloads do not make the bullet more accurate. It just increases the damage.

[CorpserKing87]

Shooting from the hip is basically a blindfire.

[MasterBrently]

wow, u think popshots and blindfires are luck. u are a scub. i can probably out snipe u without even scoping

[YoshiHasAids]

Sooner or later your head will cum LOLOLOL.

[YoshiHasAids]

Lolz...Blindfires arent complete luck...See when you blindfire on your sniper it will show blue circle if cog and red if locust. Aim that circle at there head and blindfire. I get a head shot EVERYTIME when i use this.

[awesomekid2567]

what circle are you talking about?

[rhalofanatic]

he is talking about the scope on the gun cog=blue locust=red

[HooplahBoyzAtTwelve]

that is bullshit. it doesnt show a blue circle on your screen.

[keyser66guitarist]

Yeah.. I'm pretty sure the "LB" in this vid is a typo, you definately hit L to aim.

[CorpserKing87]

Shooting from the hip is not using the gun sight/scope to aim.

[Zacattackzak]

What do you mean?

[iKraZshotz]

what is shoot from your hip?-

[G3XRevolution]

w8 y do u have to use LB 4 sniping or shooty i just hit the left trigger....

[IIxIJaGuaRIxII]

lol u dont no how to joust

[ISTRAUSSI]

Hey this is a good tutorial but u stated that blindfires are complete luck... with an active reload it is not that hard to get a headshot because its right in the middle of the screen. Also u should have told them the trick when hurt.... use the middle of the cog sign as an aimer and blindfire..... good tutorial though

[rhv0001]

0:55 isn't it supposed to be right thumbstick?

[GearsGuide]

old guide is very old.

[Tuschi17]

@GearsGuide but good!

[atari1213]

nice video, but practice does not have a fucking S in it!!!

[Complicityy]

Great tutorial

exept...

...you said blindfiring is complete luck!

thats not true

[tevinrox]

Message me... 1v1 Sniper battle, no actives, popshots and blindfires only.. GT: thoux

[lygoz]

Or Annex so you keep respawning :3 But I always KFF And practice :D So they cant see me but i can still train

[Locustking912]

nice video, one problem when i snipe and they roll i can never tell when they roll or about to roll, any ideas.

[inglishbulldog]

great video, really helpful but i couldnt help notice u made a typo. I believe u meant to say "demoralise" as in crush their morale. But you spelled "demolarise" as in take out their molars (teeth). I dont mean to be a jerk or anything, just wanted to point that out.

[xLilDemon99x]

This Was great overall. But I know How to Blindifre and its not luck at all maybe a 15% but thats hardly anything. When I get my blindfire to shoot in the center I usually aim 2-3 times higher than the center and then I shoot and its goes in the center. I have tested this out.

[park3r4]

why do you feel the need to bblindfire when u can get a easy nice headshot....

[xLilDemon99x]

To Show True Skill. I mean anybody can aim and shoot but not everybody ca pull of a Blind.

[park3r4]

if u can get blindfires consitstiently thats true skill mate

[xLilDemon99x]

Basically I Blind Because I do and I take it As skill cause i just don't keep blinding to i pull of a dome. I measure it right and try it and if its not right i do some changes and try again. Once I know the exact details I get the shot over and over again so I have the skill to do it without going all over the process. So blinding aint luck for me. It takes alot of intelligence as well as a lot of skill and thats how I see it. Thats my last Response.

[Fuzz7285]

brianshin71 1st of all your a complete fucking wank! the guy made a good video and if you reckon your better then challenge him you piece of filth!!!!!!!!!

[mikevismyelement]

sweep in special shots that is the shot that i use the most

[Reynold545]

blindfires are not complete luck..in gears of war, ive blindfired 3 people in a row..ur not supposed to aim then blindfire

[TheJediApprentice]

Great video from sniping on Gears of War, bro. Very nice...

[BrianShin71]

im sorry but you suck at this game

[park3r4]

may, 12 2007. couple months after this fucking game came out. this improved my sniper abilty a whole lot ur a just a idiot who doesnt know wat tha hell they are talkin bout. have sum respect

[LemBerryWaffles]

They have to be a whole meter away from the reticule b4 I shoot them!

[johnfinn52]

blindfiring from cover actually does have some accuracy to it. getting the reticule directly in the center makes it alot easier to get a blindfire headshot.

[GloryManUnited9]

you use the the sights by pressing LT not LB

good vid btw =]

[TheTreeFeeds]

u spelled practice wrong lol

[hmeeks16]

ur duumb as shhit u stupid american fuck look up practise in the english dictionary not everything is american mate

[LemBerryWaffles]

completely uncalled for

[skater19998]

nice vid

[TheStoic1]

yea gears sniper is alot about luck.

[Blankb109]

Your wrong it just takes practice

[mastertywon]

Yeah sooner or later the heads will come off

[SoNaturaI]

when blindfiring aim towards the center of your screen dont zoom in with the scpe zoom out and shoot it doesnt work

[RBdude23]

one time on gears 2 i was playing snowblind on the place that looks like a highway and i got the sniper ran awy and a guy was following i jumped over bunker he did to i shot hopeing to down him but insted i pretty much blid fired kims big bald head your right blind fiers are just luck cuz i sux with sniper

[oFRoZENViPER]

hi i need someone to practice with not a pro though just like a beginner or average just so i can get my sniping skills up to scratch also if you are new u will probably get better so if u wanna practice add

o FRoZEN ViPER or just snd me a msg with ur gt i know a few tricks like turning your controller sesitivity up can be a big help in aiming

[jamster118]

People who say these people can't snipe are retarded. Look when the video was posted. Not everyone was a sniper whore when the game first came out.

[Rosinator1]

this guy is a noob at blind shots >.>

[XxXCorey118XxX]

wow.....

[Rosinator1]

sniping isn't hard but supermans, crab-snaipes,wall crawlers,iceman,and spidermen arehard .....i have proubly a few hundered headshots and of that i have 3 icemen 2 supermans and 13 firemen

[DaytimeName]

lol fireman wtf nerd

[ixxDealerxxi]

what are iceman and fireman?

you never mentioned spiderman's

[vSHv4life]

ok, well first of all your dumb as hell and do not know how to snipe, or spell...and blindfires are not all luck take more skill then you think

[XxXCorey118XxX]

it is all luck dude I had done many blindfires that I was really surprised of. I can only count about 20. And I am one hell of a sniper.

[Blankb109]

STFU

[XxXCorey118XxX]

thats it? Dude come to your sences it is not an EASY thing to do.

[BlackMistx]

LOL 1:18 " Never directly roll at a sniper"

[codeman2346]

actually blind fires are not luck for some people...

...like me i can blind fire and do good because i no where they hit after a few shots

[Assassinrevolver]

Ahh blindfires make sure your barrel is in line with their head and wait till there in the middle of the screen i do that all the time

[Th3RiotTwins]

aim higher in the blind fires

[MortuhFy]

um you actually can down some1 when they r jumping over cover. whoever made this sucks and is fucking retarded

[WhackaJacka]

Hey gears, do you recon if u put a bit of blu tac inside the inner taget thingo u can get mad blindfires?

[AyKay47]

I love the joust man that shit looks fun as hell ^_^

[Th3RiotTwins]

nice dude it helped me alot

[FackinArse]

lol hate on two piece more gtfo out of here two piecing is just a part of the game I shouldnt have to empty my entire gun into the host's face just because I don't want to be called a pussy! TWO PIECING FTW

[GearsGuide]

@ majormonkey:

your clearly one of those people who runs around the map, blindfiring, running, blindfiring, running blindfiring, run... repeat 8 times, then you get killed and quit the match.

keep to your sniper matches and 1v1's.

[IIxSiCKSHOT]

i play ranked and it only takes me one or twho shots to kill someone if im just blindfireing but idk btw u cant aim at some 1s head then blindfire cuz aiming moves after you un aim it moves at an angle in becuase from the hip and at tour cheak are 2 diff places just telling you

[IIxSiCKSHOT]

oh yea btw popshots 5:36 are not luck they are easy as hard aims lololololl

[subwoffa232]

thanks heaps man, helped me alot, but i prefer gears of war 2 so if u could make a guide for that game i would appreciate it, 5/5 and subbed

[LordOCowz]

yeah i found this a long time ago so i tried all the harder shots at the end now spidermans are cake and blindfiring isnt luck btw to those of you who didnt know but this was a long time ago lol!!!

[BladeMcCloud]

Two weeks? That's a bit much...the first time I played Gears 2 with my friend, I became a better sniper then him in two days. Blind-sniping is one of my favorite things to do on multi tho, pisses people off bad ;) Great tutorial!

[FailedStatus]

Dude, this helped me waaaay back when I started playing sooo much. Like Butter's is pretty good, too.

[DemonicRedeemer]

idk if anyone said but when you blindfire you dont aim at there head with lt and let go and then shot your gun shots up more you aim little below he head -_-

[RioGiovanni]

Personally i hate snipers. Nothing against you, but it's that damn active reload that downs me at any range! Thanks for giving me tips on facing snipers. I'm gonna try out the pistol takedown

[mastermindgamer]

[DAvonteOsborne]

with blindfires up close you can tell where it goes and dont aim at their head then shoot never really work

[GearsGuide]

thankyou to everyone with your awesome comments. i dont log in much anymore, since i get spammed too much, but its always ncie to read a nice comment every now and then :)
