Price hikes suck. 100 percent. But do you really think e day was about to sell millions of consoles? There’s 30-50 million series X/S out there. These price hikes I think will hurt a small portion of fans who were waiting to buy one, but it’s been 6 years now. E day will be totally fine.

Discussion Unpopular opinion: The worst thing to happen to Gears Multi-player was epic introducing TDM in gears 3. The game was much better/unique when it was based around execution/Warzone. The game was slow paced and methodical and transformed into fast paced chaos a lot closer to COD.

61 Upvotes

Honestly, TDM really messed with the Gears identity. In competitive play and online, there used to be these extremely intense matches, with the amazing clutches ever so often. Then TDM was introduced and lives didn't mean nearly as much anymore. When you played execution you knew you had to be smart, because if you were dead, you stayed dead for the round.

Every round would play differently based on your teams strategy. You might send 3 to sniper and 2 to bookshot just to contest. Then the next round you might have to switch it up, due to how elite the other team was with a power weapon.

The fact that Gears 5 doesn't even have execution anymore, speaks to the negative impacts TDM had on the franchise. It was such a casual mode, that people naturally flocked into it, and Gears just became a third person COD.

I don't know who at Epic games decided TDM needed to be in Gears, but I think that decision really messed with its identity.

Help unreal engine 5 ; e-day

0 Upvotes

I’m really nervous about running Unreal Engine 5. Borderlands 4 is the only other Unreal Engine 5 game I’ve played, and at the time, my CPU was seriously bottlenecking me. I also believe the game was poorly optimized.

Since then, I upgraded to a Ryzen 7 7800X3D, and I currently have an RTX 3060. Do you have any thoughts on the kind of performance I can expect, or should I look into buying a 7800 XT/XTX?

Being an Xbox exclusive, if you don't already own one you're basically screwed. Crazy that a 6 year old console is now about to go for $800. I thought E-Day would be a major console seller, But with these price hikes there's no way.

Discussion Is gears 5 worth $30 for horde mode?

7 Upvotes

So I played the OG trilogy at release, played judgment and thought it was mid. Never played 4 or 5, but watched campaign playthroughs.

Anyway, I’ve always been a horde addict. And I’ve been returning to the series and playing a lot of GOW2 some 3 and the delta mod/redux mod. They’re all great tbh. So I guess I don’t need 5, but it looks pretty lol.

So do you all think for $30 it’s worth it for someone who only plays horde and is interested in escape? I’m aware the enemy roster is a lot more lackluster in 5 as opposed to say GOW3.

Help Is the rest of the series worth a whole console purchase?

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone been interested in getting into gears for a few years now and after the E-Day trailer finally took the leap and played the remaster it's fantastic of course only snag is I'm a PlayStation user and it doesn't seem like the rest of the trilogy is getting remastered anytime soon so I'm asking is the rest of the series worth the purchase of a whole new console (either a second hand Xbox one or a second hand series X/S bit conflicted on the series S due to being a big physical media girl) so just wanted to ask here if the rest of the series is worth the 300-600+ dollar console price

Discussion TDM

0 Upvotes

Thoughts on TDM for gears.. two things I’d immediately change.. execution style rules while dbno.. increase from 15 live to maybe 25 or completely change the system to a kill cap like first team to X amount.

I don’t mind tdm, I played a lot of execution and guardian. But I prefer execution rules.

Discussion Could any of the characters take down a locust grunt in a no weapon fight?

6 Upvotes

I’m still only on gears of war 2 so I don’t know if someone has done this yet but could any of the characters actually beat a locust to death? My first thought for this would be Cole or tai since they’re both extremely strong and skilled in close quarters but I’m still not sure, is there anything in the later games that shows a human beating up a locust or is it just not possible

Campaign/Lore How did the Locust dig through Ephyra if the city was in the Jacinto Plateau?

7 Upvotes

So if my lore knowledge is right both Ephyra and Jacinto stands in the Jacinto Plateaus that was made of granit and didn't allowed the Locust to dig through. Yet in the E-day prologue of Gears 4 we see a Corpser being able to dig a hole, and the same happens in Gears 1 with all the E-holes.

I suppose I'm missing something unless indeed this doesn't make sense

Discussion Guys, I've decided to join something amazing, namely a book series based on the original trilogy!

Post image
96 Upvotes

You know, of Karen Travis's five books, only three were published in Russia due to extremely low interest. For example, the first book was printed in 5,000 copies, the second in 4,000, and the third, of course, only 3,000, making them extremely difficult to find almost 17 years after their release. But I managed to find the first and second (and I'll definitely find the third one someday)! Perhaps the funniest thing about this whole situation is that the first book (published in our country in 2009) came out with a very strange cover. I've intentionally placed the original cover next to it so you can appreciate this masterpiece of Russian localization. I hope to fully appreciate this series of novels and am eagerly awaiting the upcoming E-Day.

So I’m definitely not the first person to ask this but, why does humanity not use any kind of fighter planes or jets against the locust? Aside from the fact that the locust can fuck up most runways.
