How to unlock the Mind the Gap achievement in Gears of War - Definitive Guide

Easiest way to get this 'cheevo is to have two controllers and have one sign in with a dummy account. Make a local Warzone match, set the map to Subway, and change the rounds to 3. Using the dummy account's remote, run for the grenades and blow yourself up. If you spawn inside, take a right and go through the train car. If you spawn outside, go down the stairs, take a right, and go through the train car. Have Fun!

This is the fastest and easiest way to do this.. using a 2nd controller guest account.. You can sign one on in the menus, (this is not a second silver acount) Match type Execution.. Press the Y button to get a guest in should be (your gamertag(2) Kill the guest account, no respawns.. the word dummy account kinda threw me when I read this, that's why you should use the same terminaology as the game, but otherwise very sound advice. Thumbs up!

If you spawn outside, there is a quicker way to get to the grenades - take a right and go past the burnt out cars. Jump over the slabs and past the white van and take an immediate right and go up the stairs to the grenades there. It’s the same location as on Gears 2 and quicker to do for this achievement :)

There are two methods to do this.

The first is for people who want these matches to count towards Annex:

Simply start up an Annex player match, 120 seconds for capture time, 3 rounds, and bleed out duration to 5 seconds.

Use a second controller / guest account as the team from the other side (sign in a second controller with the guest account and then you'll automatically join the match I think), have him spinning around or doing something. Then go and capture all the points until you reach 120 to win the round. Rinse and repeat.

Alternatively, you can do this easily in Warzone or Execution on this map. Set the matches to say 3 round duration, 1 or 2 minutes for round duration. Then go and kill your second controller, rinse and repeat.

Those who wish to vote negative, at least please give the courtesy of explaining why you voted it down. I simply explained my method of what worked for me to get the achievement.

Would it not be infinitely quicker to play a single-kill gametype?

As far as I know it won't let you do that. This is what's consdiered the best way to get it done, from what I've been hearing.

I haven't seen it confirmed Sully. Confirm it for me please and if you were one of the Negatives, I will add it in so you can re-vote?

It would be quicker yes but you do it that in Annex to count towards the THIS IS ANNEX achievement.

Do you really have to do something with the 2nd controller?

By far the best solution for this, gives multiple way sto get there and explains the Annex side of thisngs too.. Thumbs up.. but to be constructive if I may... you should give a little more detail like how to sign in your guest account, as I myself had trouble figuring that out..lol.. still a very good solution.BTW Execution is the fastest as there are no respawns, that's how I did it anyway, didn't try the Warzone that should work just as quick though I guess.

the reason for your massiva amount of down votes could also be the fact that you need to set the round score to 180 points, because the annex achievement clearly states 3 rounds and 3 objectives per round. every objective is 60 points so you need 180 to win and have it count

Not too sure about your comment Daniel, the highest rated solution (with 112 thumbs up) on the THIS IS ANNEX achievement page says set it to 120. The achievement description itself says 3 per match, NOT 3 per round. Here, copied and pasted "Complete 100 multiplayer matches of 3+ rounds in Annex and capture 3 objectives in each match".

I suspect a bunch of people may have voted this down because Trev doesn't actually have the achievement yet, and some people don't like that.

I think people down voted because you don't have the achievement when you said you did. So it makes you not look creditable.

"you need to set the round score to 180 points, because the annex achievement clearly states 3 rounds and 3 objectives per round. every objective is 60 points so you need 180 to win and have it count"

No, read the description: "Complete 100 multiplayer matches of 3+ rounds in Annex and capture 3 objectives in each match"

Match, not round.

Also, this is the most efficient way to do this if you don't want to boost with other people and want to also get Annex. People voting negative were probably too short-sighted to realize this. The Green Thumb and Purdy Mouth achievements are the only ones where it's worth it to NOT play them on Annex, since it's faster to suicide the dummy account.

I recommend doing this cheevo first, and then Annex cheevo. Its going to be faster than doing both at the same time

The best way is hosting a public match of assassination and connect a second controller and have a friend that help just active the friendly fire and you just stay in the team rival of you friend and you second controller say you friend that kill you second controller and aautomatically you win the round continue do this 20 times GOOD LUCK and I hope that this tip help you PD=you ssecond controller need become the leader
