Beast is a multiplayer game mode introduced in Gears of War 3 where players can take control of different Locust creatures to try to kill off humans; it is a reverse of Horde mode, but unlike Horde, you have more than one life and you can't regenerate health. So far it has been revealed that players can choose to be anything from a Ticker to a Berserker, and a couple of new Locust that have not been revealed yet. The object is for players to kill Humans, such as Gears or Stranded in order to gain cash that is used to unlock more playable Locust creatures. As players level up, similarily to levels in Matchmaking, more Locust characters are unlocked to play as. Each respawn costs a certain amount of cash, garnered by killing humans, and the game ends when no cash remain to respawn. Each Locust character costs a different amount of cash. For example, a Wretch does not cost much cash and so is safe to constantly respawn as, while a Berserker costs a larger amount of cash and cannot be accessed until numerous humans have been killed, in addition to greatly reducing the amount of cash available for later respawns.
Like Horde the enemies will get more difficult to overcome. Starting with Stranded, who would not use cover often, would be ill equipped, and have little combat experience (like bots in Casual). After some time you will have to fight regular COG Gears (Heroes not included), that will use cover, be better equipped and will put up a fight. Again, after some time the 'Hero' characters (Marcus Fenix, Dom Santiago, Anya Stroud, etc.) will start spawning. They'll have the option to deploy certain fortifications like Turrets or Barriers. On the final wave, Richard Prescott and the elite Onyx Guards will appear as a "Grand Finale" of sorts.
It has been hinted by Cliff Bleszinski that certain Locust will bear unique characteristics in terms of player experience, for example the Berserker will have reduced vision for the player but will instead provide some other sort of tracking system for the player to use, such as scent or hearing, rather than sight.

Dit zal natuurlijk ook weer ongelofelijk veel gespeeld worden. Hierbij dus een algemene topic voor de Beast Mode! Probeer het niveau wel een beetje aardig te houden en niet dat we straks alleen maar krijgen 'EH WIE KOMT BEAST MODE SPELEN VOEG ME TOE IKBENHENK1337' moeten lezen in dit topic.
Gamertags kan je droppen, dan zal ik een lijstje maken zodat je iemand kan toevoegen voor Beast Mode!
