Boss Fights

[10000000000]

I don't kno of wheather this thread has been posted or not,but regardless I'm gonna start one.I'd like to kno what kind of bosses you'd like 2c in the game hope what they look like,how powerful they r,and if you'd like a queen and king locust boss fight.I'm just curious.

I picked the 4th option, but that doesn't mean it doesn't appeal to others. Epic is trying to break cliches. A King or Queen would be cliche, but maybe you will have a boss fight with General Raam, now that has potential!

[TKOGodfather]

I know it would be exhilarating, but I dont know if fighing a small locust and a berserker reallly matches up

[Tenspeed]

Hello no because if they defeat the locusts then what about gow2 and 3?

[Razor]

Aren't there usually sequels to games this big? ;)

I don't like the whole boss fight thing. I would prefer that when you come to a point where you usually typically you would fight a boss you reach the centerpoint of the horde you had be facing the on that particular stage. Allowing the locust to have already dug in so they have the tactical advantage, maybe a light tank that transports them and a turrent of some kind and that can act as the boss fight. Finding the base of their offense every stage.

I like the way zelda 64 did it where they had mini bosses before the big cheese.

[TNT]

I don't think they should have king and queen boss fights, i mean they need a sequal even if the game actually has a king and queen locust. but i do hope for some awesome bosses all the same.

Screw boss fights! Give me more story. Give me more problems to solve... perhaps a bit of stealth. In other words give me something different than every other FPS out there.

Ah-freakin'-men to that! (just the underlined part) But i still would like to see boss fights. Maybe the way God of war did it, where each one is a boss/puzzle. Like you have to find its weakness, they have multiple parts to it, you can only hurt them by doing a certain button combination. The boss fights were sick in that, and im surer Epic could pull off something great like that.:D

I think a fun boss fight would be killing the chinese leader guy on your team , he didnt even want marcus on his team and is ashamed of being on a team with a bunch of misfits, I dont really like that guy ,minh young kim. I think he should try to attack marcus and then you chainsaw him and marcus becomes the squad leader.Besides this guy believes in all things COG and goes by the book leaving no room for slack or letting loose.

Who are you talking about???

[Urbani666]

the asian guy , minh young kim,http://media.xbox360.ign.com/media/747/747891/img_3746188.html
this guy seems like a loser.
well maybe not a loser but certainly a stuck up snob.

coulda just searched "boss"....:)

[Ducain]

Boss fights = *shivers*

Please...just...no.

[Dominus]

Boss fights have almost dissapared from modern games. It would be nice to see a couple of mini bosses and what I like to call "level boss hordes" where you get tonnes of enemies and you have to finish them all off.

[StOLeNXxShAdOwS]

Then something else goes wrong and you have more creatures to kil so...yeah

[Tenspeed]

Well I like boss fights, or just a fun encounter like the rumoured chopper vs corpser fight and things like that but not a "queen/king locust fight".

Dude you just offended me and the asian population. Don't talk like that.

[elite94]

Fiber, your asian? dude asians rule! exept for the fact that the nerdy 1's always beat me at video games :D, and i dont think he was trying to offend the asians, but just that mihn guy, he is kinda stuck up, just read his profile at ign, he sounds kinda like a snobby rich kid that might go to your school, still, i think he looks kool. i mean come on! a chinese mr. clean! w00t! :);)

[cchance]

btw GoW will have a sequel Cliffy said theyu will probably get to that right after gow is done considering how huge it has become... and their were also discussions of it being a trilogy :)

[GearOfWar]

Having a king and queen locust seems a little too cliche for GoW. Cliffy wants to stay away from cliches, thats why he made it that the locust came from underground, not from space. Marcus Fenix isn't a space marine either. This cliche is found too often in Doom and the Mario games.

[Crimson Omen]

In my first post I didn't really mean no boss fights, just not a king and queen one. General Raam (has an avatar) would be fun though I think. Has anyone played Lord of the Rings The Two Towers? Kind of like the boss fight with the head orc Lurtz who killed Boromir. You're ducking in and out of cover and the other guy is really fast.

[The Evil Hat]

that would be awsome!

[Raidea]

Why the hell have unique boss monsters gone from modern video games? They are brilliant!

Getting to the end of a level and fighting something huge that you won't see again in the game, what happened to that?

I remember old games like Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, Sonic, fighting new and interesting bosses at the end of every level was loads of fun!

I understand modelling new monsters takes a hell of a lot more time now than it used to, but hopefully there will be a couple of nice monsters near the end of the game. I can't stand fighting hordes of duplicated monsters as a 'boss'.

[Tenspeed]

Maybe there will be some unique locusts but they just haven't been announced or seen. Plus I loved games like god of war and devil may cry, those had awesome boss fights, but they are completely different games heh.

Exactly. I loved going through a level, knowing that there was some badass waiting for me. I could hardly wait to get to the next one. They don't have to be right at the end of a level, but as you progress, it would be nice to encounter a few...tougher and bigger? Ok, ok, they don't have to keep getting bigger. But I like that though! ;)
