Best/Easiest way to boost "Foreshadowing"...

[smashingrascal]

just normally play a CTL game and have your bayonette charge stand-by in case you see someone playing as kim and hunt him down. worked for me 7 matches played and 3 with Minh

Once you're in, the teams may not switch roles for a few matches. STAY IN! They should switch eventually, and it'll be faster than searching again because even if you got lucky with a successful first search, don't assume your next attempt will go as smoothly (it didn't for us).

Glad to get this out of the way. Terrible Achievement design. If it were, "Raam executes 10 COG of any variety", that would have been amusing with an army of Raam's for a few days.

Never played Alpha before but it worked for me. It was around 7 am CST and only 100 matches being played. Popped in and out trying to find a kim player or all bots match. On the fourth search found a lone player and asked him. We both got it within a few matches, and even helped a third player that joined in get it.

I will haunt the Alpha games to help others get it. Look for the shiny dome or Raam's ugly mug. :-)

I have a sure fire way which has worked 100% for me

FLOOD YOUR DOWNLOAD & UPLOAD

I used king of the hill, it will find 0 public matches on everything and put you against bots, just keep loading until your Raam & Kim appears with the Cog

[Darkseide]

I need to get Foreshadowing. I'll be online pretty much all day today

What do you mean your "Download & Upload"? I get it that you won't be connected to another game with human players due to bandwidth usage, but what do you overload? Sorry if it's an obvious answer, I can't think of it. Thanks.

[McDurbin]

He means like download a large file and upload a large file at the same time. Or if you use utorrent you can download a large file and let it have unlimited upload so it will max out your connection to where it will be really slow for anything else.

[ShadowSonic85]

heh this achievement I just got by luck....only when I got to 8/10 did it get annoying since it was hard as heck to find a Minh player....and I was Raam

1 game they thought it was the other way around and I just quit because of how stupid he was that I was supposed to execute him......not me getting executed by him....which he did about 7 times when I asked for his help

This doesn't actually work nearly as well in Gears 3 as it did in Gears 2. They no longer let people with shit connections host games.

[BL0W1NG BUBBL3S]

Is it possible to get 5 people together, all sign in 2nd controller guest accounts, that way you have 10 people and then just have the host join a match? Won't it send all of you to the same game.. then just adjust the teams so all players are locust raams and all the guest accounts are minh's? That sound feasible?

I'll give it a shot with you if you can find 3 other people!

[lord e66ex]

I was playing KOTH and usually each match had a bot on each team. I was lucky that i FINALLY, for the first time ever, got Kim in a match and he was a bot. I just ran round mad with my chainsaw looking for him, got all 10 in one go.

Had this not happened I was planning on politely asking the person i saw as playing kim for executions, it's definitely probably the easiest way.

[Cheftastytreats]

Have a party of 5 and join a game together then have the party leader quit out and join back in on someone and you should all be jumbled up except for who ever rejoined in those two will be together and everyone will be random

[Rodimus1103]

i am up for boosting this as well and will stay until everyone in room gets the cheevo. just send me a message and we can set a time and place to boost it

[ExtremeRugburn]

Here are my top 3.

1) You and a friend search for a match. When you find a lobby with an open spot on the opposite team one of you quite out and go to recent players to rejoin the match on the opposite team. Then once the next match begins hopefully you will be on opposite teams so you can boost.

2) Play late at night and download or stream multiple files/movies on your PC while searching for matches. You should get a lobby to yourself with all bots or mostly bots and pray that one of the random bots is Kim.

3) Check opposing players to see who still also needs the achievement and send them a message to see if they are interested in boosting.

OR

You can play normal as Raam and wait 44 years to accumulate your 10 executions.

[soadkenjos]

Looking to get this too, only need one more execution, will be online later if anyone want's to try??? GT - SOAD Kenjos

[TheSaferHouse]

I need this too if anyone ever wants to try...

[Schwarze Seele]

Me and TheSaferHouse are willing to help anyone boost this if we can get it too. If we can just get 3 more to sign in with a dummy account I'm sure we can get this. Send me a message if you want to help us.

[Turbotuff]

Sent you a PM there Mr. Schwarze Seele, I am still looking for foreshadowing and I can help in return.

[DEADHEAD60K]

Attention!!

In the new Gardian playlist it is possible to get in different teams then your party members.
Don't know if this is default or not but in 40% of the games I was playing against someone of my friendlist who was in my xbox live party.


Note, I was in a party of three and the party member left while playing guardian.
