Anyone know what the spider locus is called? Also has anyone noticed that burak(sp) that looks almost preditor style and it has no cannon only (I think) claws but is about the same size and it chases marcus down a corridor in one of the trailers.

Brumak is the one with the cannon and the face mask thing, its not really a locust but the locust bred it from a guerillla, ask Zoso and he will tell u more, the giant ugly faced creature that has no cannon is the Bersker, she is the female drone and is really anger, like on PMS 24/7!

[Snake]

Destroyed Beauty was a special article they released to explain Gears very early on http://xbox.gamespy.com/xbox-360/gears-of-war/631759p1.html

[Zoso Fan]

(sp) for spelling. He wasnt sure how the name was spelled, but he knew it wasnt spelled right.

[Gear03]

The spider-beasts that locust use are corpsers. They tunnel through the earth, and can be ridden by locust drones, just like the brumaks.

[Joshx360]

[THERONWATCHER]

The spider like thing is a corpser. its not a locust itself either.

[rudespartan117]

Brumak, Corpser, Seeder/nemacyst/Reaver, are not locusts but are a PART of the locust Horde

[Grey19]

Similiar to how horses/mules/elephants/etc. have been used in war, but are not humans.

[themightymigit]

There are different types of locust all are part of the locust horde
List from weakest to strongest (in terms of how much it can take before being destroy) :
Infantry:
Wretches (the ones without guns bite jump and in some levels explode)
Drones (your basic locust soldier)
Sniper (fast good shot tall and distinguised in their googles)
Grenadier (slow medium sized can take a hell of a punch no armour)
Elite grenadier (same as grenadier but wears armour)
Theron guard (elite drone sharp teeth uses torqe bow)
Theron sentinel (most elite infantry uses any weapon)
Boomer (uses grenade launcher/rocket launcher)
General raam (so powerful he can control kryll incrediable hard to kill)
Beserker (female drone insane obliterates friend and foe only vulnerable to hammer of dawn)

Monster's/vehicles (all of these units exept seeder can be ridben by locust troops).
Reever (ridden by locust roops incrediably fast)
Seeder (can jam signals and fire anti-aircraft/artillery living shell things can also ink skys so it is hard for air support to know where to fire)
Corpser (invincible to all weapons used by locust to dig all major tunnels)
Brumark (invincible to all weapons uses artillery piece and wrist rocket)

[The Other Guy]

The Spider like Locust is called a Corpser.

[rudespartan117]

Brumark (invincible to all weapons uses artillery piece and wrist rocket)

Not true, The Brumak can be killed by high explosives only. has an extraordinary thick skin
