It lost its identity. Of war.
It's made by people who have no clue what made the first three games good.
The Terminator?
Honestly, from a story perspective, this is the most interesting story in the series to date. The trailer was pretty awful though.
Am I the only one who un ironically loves the cover art? It’s more minimalistic and not a clusterfuck of shit going on like 4.
Everything shown about it so far is just terrible. It is the definition of awful taste but great execution. The presentation and trailers are literally overproduced garbage.
I love it
Very excited about Gears 5 since I enjoyed 4
i like it, i also dont mind kait being the main character and they were clearly setting up for her in 4 since she has the most story beats there too
i am concerned they didnt show campaign gameplay and wont until a few days before release apparently
DONT FORGET ABOUT THE MOVIE TIE IN TERMINATOR DARK FATE IN A THEATRE NEAR YOU SOON
gears of 3 was the finale, anything after doesn't matter
I found the first trailer pretty intriguing. I actually think Kait is an actually pretty good character, and I’ll take a story lining surrounding her opposed to boring JD again. However it’s really bizarre they haven’t shown any gameplay.
The story got even stupider. Went from simple monsters invading and trying to survive to mutated exploding monsters, dad scientist, flood our entire city and other shit. The new characters have zero appeal and at the end of the day the enemies are just remixed Locusts. You cant do a whole lot with this world and it shouldve ended with 3.
>You can’t do a lot with this world
Nah, you totally can.
Gears 4 was decent though. It also looked spectacular in 4K on XboneX
I agree beep boop I will be purchasing the latest xbox as well when it is available. Or should I say "xbone" ha ha.
>make most powerful console ever
>its a glorified old game upscaler
jesus wept
Huh? It also runs modern games better than any other console out there
Holy shit. Shills actually do exist on 4Channel...But why?
If this is not a Microsoft paid shill post, then there literally never in the history of ever had before been any Microsoft paid shill post made anywhere. It's so fucking obvious, that this pajeet should be fired on spot.
This. The first game is about a group of guys doing the generic military shit at the time like most games were at that moment. But it gave a creative idea of enemies from the underground and giant weapon wielding monsters and large amounts of gore that it was as silly as it was awesome.
There was the side of stupid quips and arguing as two macho men went to save the world, but you had those human elements of loss and emotion that added to it.
The new games are 'after the war' where humans are rebuilding and have no more enemies that the main issue is the locusts re-emerging and forcing a repeat narrative like 343 Halo did. But the focus seemed more on the human element of things seemed to shine more then the gruff military shit. It's not 'Mans last struggle', its now a Hardy Boys Mystery Novel with guns.
Halo is basically the same, What was a One Man War for survival became.... I honestly don't fucking know thanks to Halo 5.
I would argue they intentionally chose to work on Gears and turn it into this mess precisely because of what it once was. At any rate, it was worth it just for the hilarious "trailer" with all the faces.
bzzt bzzt URGENT TRANSMISSION FROM ...[Microsoft Advertising Department]... you are needed in a Yea Forums cunny thread due an Anonymous poster's typo concerning "xboneing natalie portman from Leon" TRANSMISSION END bzzztt
Im just annoyed at microsoft's incompetency. they make the best console out there and do nothing with it, and now have already brushed it aside for the next console
they released the bonex with super luckys tale and minecraft 4k ffs
Not even a good one. If it had more support to enchance og xbox games I'll buy that shit in a heartbeat.
Do these games sell well? Who buys them?
I bought Gears 1 at the time but it never struck me as something worthy of such a massive series.
Sorry, we like games.
Now we get to focus on a young girl's emotional journey as she struggles with demons from her past user. It's what Gears was always about, at its core. The days of muscular, (mostly) white men chainsawing ugly monsters and cracking jokes are over now. Gears 2 was fun, sure, but it's time to move into the future and that means Funko POP! Figurines now available at participating retailers.
Try out the NEW official mobile game! youtube.com
The strangest part is that they think they blend in. They are so obvious it's uncanny
Then you should start listing some good ones faggot.
Such as?
>can’t play as strong white men anymore.
Is that really what makes the game for you?
Hell, I think Gears basically followed a bunch of trends while pulling off the gruffest fucking guys people at /fit/ admire. Gears 1 and 2 were Military Shooters around the same time as Modern Warfare with Gears 3 being a fucking zombie title since those were becoming popular.
Another issue for the characters is there feels like no character to them compared to those from the first 3 games. Judgement was also kinda forgettable for characters, but I remember the Russian dude somewhat... Not as much, but I remember he was the enemy and then hired to fight Locust.
But you had the hardass and pissed off Marcus, the Sombre but buddy buddy Dom, The Happy-go-Lucky COLE TRAIN, The "I am fucking smarter then everyone here and the dumbness of everyone is pissing me off" Baird, And then you got the 3 Carmine brothers that were pretty memorable despite being dedicated 'die' characters and Dizzy and Anya and the jackass president.
Who the fuck are the new characters? The only one I remember is Marcus kid and even he is just generic...
Xbox360 didn't exactly have a wide variety of good exclusives. Gears was pretty much all they had after Halo and a handful of niche stuff that didn't really appeal to the Xbox audience anyway.
Well, there’s books, comics.
The Last of Us happened, since then Microsoft is trying to find something similar and have been shitting all over their IPs
I still can't believe how awful this whole reveal was
>that awful box art
>That fucking trailer
>buy the ultimate edition to play it early and get an advantage
>the cringe worthy and unnecessary stage transition
>CGI trailer for some new mode nobody will play
>No Gameplay, but hey three Wrestlers are gonna play it!
>terminator cash grab
>Gears Pop
I unironically believe they killed the series with this
Looks fun. Gears 4 was good. I'm playing it now but I'm a woman so I guess it's meant for me.
I played 1 2 and 3 all couch co op with my friends. Never cared to play them solo.
I'm not spending $400 on a console, then $60+tip per game without it.
To get you to think differently or sell you something.
they didn't show gameplay but apparently after Angry Joe whined it was revealed that one of the wrestlers has a gaming channel. not linking since that's for shills
And what made the first 3 games good?
I think he means "What more can you do with the plot after the Locust were defeated?"
The whole plotline of gears was a World War over the diminishing price of fuel that was stopped after a group of mutated humans living underground had to flee their homes because the fuel was alive and basically a zombie creating fungus of sorts that was volatile.
The world proceeded to nuke itself and create a massive war where cities built walls and foundations to keep the Locust out while the Locust besieged them for 15-20 years while stuck in a civil war with their mutating brethren.
Once they killed off both the Locust (Who were mutated humans from the fuel emissions gone overboard thanks to science) and the fuel... The only thing left would be human vs human again unless you shoe horned the Locust back into the story somehow which they were forced to do.
There must be a ton of Sony shills here then.
I thought he was whining since they had Pro wrestlers gaming it but then decided they weren't gonna show gameplay on the screen... Which is the point of E3...
Like, What is the point of bringing them there if you were not gonna show gameplay?
Not him but 4 is honestly the best for multi. The campaign was solid but still the worst.
This so fucking bad. While I find it cringy and hilarious, I really hope there aren't people stupid enough to fall for this shit.
>bunch of guys makes a cool new ip back in 90s or 00s
>the game becomes really popular and the guys make a sequel or two
>men in suits approach the guys to buy the right for the game
>men in suits hire nu-devs and story writers to make more games for the series
That's how you go from soul to soulless. Just look at the battlefield franchise, wolfenstein and now gears too.
So that explains why the Locust queen is so human looking
Just watched the gameplay and it's absolute fucking garbage. I'm definitely not a gears fan anymore. To anyone who thinks i'm just hating on it because xbox, i'm getting the scarlett.
Wolfenstein The New Order was good...
To fall for thinking there are actually shills on a pedophile gamer imageboard? Yes there ate people that believe it.
Not an argument
Why would I be a shill, because I enjoyed Gears 4?
You sound like you play Persona5 and other anime games you faggot
assuming nu-gears under current year Cliff BLESZINSKI direction would be any better
>holy shit different thoughts and opinions exist
holy shit
fucking hell so the xbones best game is actually the Rome one?
will this hell ever end?
They try to appeal to normies I guess. Look, someone you might recognize! It only works if you get someone really big like Keanu
Ryse? Meh it's alright I guess
Here are my top 3 games on xbones
Not really. Kind of like how the xbox faggot was like "With Gears 4, we wanted to gain your trust again. Now with Gears 5, we can go in new directions!" aka shit
Looking at that garbage list I just noticed something. 8th gen was fucking GARBAGE. The only thing i've enjoyed was person 5 on ps4 and the rare collection on xbox.
I liked it and look forward to the sequel.
holy shit he might not even be getting paid for it... oh ho ho NO NO NO NO
>holy shit people with such a deep level of shit taste exist
Literally subhuman tier kys. I'd advise you to do the world a favor and not to reproduce, but I'm sure that'd be redundant fagget
Me. I just buy it for the Multiplayer like the beaner I am, and Horde mode as well. Gears of war was always competitive, alot of wetback try hard wall bouncing and gnasher battles, even we duels for it whenever there was a 1v1 situation. It was like Quake, minus the rocket jumping. It was fun, and still is, I loved everyone one, gears 5 looks pretty good but damn I was expecting gameplay, escape looks good but I'm looking forward to Multiplayer footage.
And we gears player are picky at, as long the Gnasher, wall bouncing, executions and no lag are present, we will love gears no matter what, at least for me and those damn beaners in Mexico.
LOLOLOL
She is human. She is the ancestor of the scientists that took the mutated humans and lead them to the mountain.
Basically, She is the slave master to all Locust and styled herself as a queen who ruled over these sub-IQ freaks as a beloved tyrant like one would rule over an ant colony.
If you think about it, Locust are just Ni-De-evolved Humans
>Implying the men in suits weren't always in charge
Do you think the funding for the new IP grew in a tree? Battlefield has always been published under EA
It lost the War.
Testosterone, brotherhood, one liners, gratuitous violence and plot that seemed to be heading somewhere. Plus a fantastic multiplayer scene.
That's a shame I guess, perhaps you've grown out of videogames. I feel we still got a fair amount of good games in this gen
A game that went from killing nazis to
>killing those fucking pieces of shit evil nazi scum that we definitely punch inrl and are worse than pedophiles and rapists!
It's like, yeah we know what wolfenstein is, you don't have to bait people out to defend nazis by giving a speech every time you talk about it.
You will be forgotten and left in the past while humanity advances without you.

Honestly even 3 was moving away from what made me fall in love with the first two. I loved the multiplayer above all else, there's just nothing else like it out there, but boy do the faggots running around with their animated rainbow gun skins really take you out of the experience. Didn't care much for 3's campaign either and probably wouldn't have played the multiplayer for anywhere near the hundreds of hours I did if I hadn't been so desperate to get away from the rubberbanding of 2.
I'm just holding out hope that the original trilogy gets a Steam release so people can build up a niche community and go back to playing the ones they love. Seeing the series as it is now just reminds me of how much better the 360 days seemed in general, not just Gears.
It was always really goofy with Nazis, like it knew it wasn't supposed to be taken seriously. "Mecha Hitler" was the final boss. I guess they lost the joke, or maybe didn't know it was a joke to begin with and we're the fools for enjoying it.
Onions
I am not a Wolfenstein guy... But why bring it out of a certain area and just make it so fucking heavy handed with symbology and ideas?
Nazi's are your generic hardcoded villains that silly attempts at them are better then truly villifying them. Like, How do we still got Nazi's 40 years after WW2? Surely 40 years of progression or change or other factoring forces would have caused some change in the order or name...
Did Nazi's do 'nam? Do they suffer from internal politics and backstabbing? How can the world resist them for 40 fucking years?

>tfw no more Gears 2 River sniper battles

What's wrong with a bunch of muscular men killing aliens with chainsaw rifles.
It's her turn now!
>The campaign was solid but still the worst.
No that would be Judgement.
The fact the aliens are supposed to be dead, there is no central focusing character for these games (First one was Marcus son, Second is girl), and the focus is less about muscular men fighting for their homes and being fucking Mary-Kate and Ashley fuck with Crystals as the planets weather shits itself.
Baird and Cole deserved better, but the multiplayer was the worst part of that game
Judgement story was fine, But it suffered HEAVILY for the 'True Story' mechanic which just lead to a LOT of loading screens.
damn. definitely true for halo. after 3.. what was the point
Go Woke...
