Is there anyone here playing Gears of War 4? Ive been having some fun playing, and I will be getting it up and running on my computer also to have fun on the go. Anyone like the series? Anyone up for some Team Kickassery?
Add me on XBL. PerfectDrell
No cross competitive play killed the chances of me buying this game.
Shame, too. I LOVE the Gears series.
Story spoiler stuff—
yep
[details=Spoiler]It’s interesting, the detail about their bodies forming an unbreakable crystal barrier…like some interesting evolutionary advantage to prevent true mass extinction. I’d say the COG still could’ve taken care of this if they had the resources to load up these crystallized bodies onto rocket-ships to launch into space.
This is likely a case of “hindsight is 20/20” though, as I’m sure none of the Seran people/government knew this species was capable of coming back from what was assumed to be a successful extinction-level event.
ALSO— I am curious about just how long their “process” of turning a new Queen would take… it was clear that Reyna was only partially “done” with it…still wanting to be cut out of there.
Ooooh… I wonder if the abduction of Maria in part 2 was them doing research on such a process? Nah, it must have been known before since they already had Myrrah in place at that time…maybe it was simply more research “just in case” things went bad and a successor to the throne was needed…?[/details]
Looking back on it all in terms of gameplay… the Snatchers— they are consistently the hardest fight in the game, imo. Any time it’s them + anything else, it’s a situation that can easily end up in a several failed missions. I’m sure my neighbors may have heard lots of “colorful” language the other day as I fought these things on Hardcore…
…and nah bruh, I don’t even want to consider taking on Insane difficulty yet.
Im def not touching insane lol. Snatchers + Swarm is def an insane combo to deal with
My GF is going through insane atm, juvies are fucking evil. 2 hits and you’re dead.
thank you for your responses. @DrellyFish I will be adding you today when I get back home. Im playing on EST and that will be around 330/4pm
Any srk peeps still playing this game? I don’t have much time to play games anymore, but when I do have some free time I’m always playing gears.
i streamed it yesterday. Fun game.
Gundamkai109 is my tag if anyone is interested in playing some games sometime.
I’ll add you
This game is hands down the best xbox exclusive IMO. I played all the others and im pleased to see the series is still going strong. Story is great MP is hella fun and Horde mode is awesome. Sadly I played this when my bro lent me his xbox so I can’t play with u guys
I don’t play as much due to the late hourse I’m on but I’m always playing horde. I specialize in engineer but can do any class well…
Besides all the fan boy gear heads out there, I need someone to be honest with me and tell me if this game is worth getting or not. Does the story fall in line with the rest of the games? I’m only asking because this game would be the only reason I sell out and get an XB1.
Still needs to take the wall off between consoles and PC players. The number on PC is just way too small for me to bother purchasing this game and I LOVE the Gears franchise.
I know the wall is slowly being removed but I wish they’d just destroy that shit now and take my PC money.
I haven’t touched the story yet, but a friend of mine says the story turned out to be really good though. I only really play gears for the versus multiplayer. Gears 4 has a bit of a gears 2 feeling to it, so I’m having a blast playing it. Mostly been playing the new dodgeball mode.
The story is a solid continuation to me. Some people were kinda eh about a plot twist. But the end of the game had a cool plot twist about a character. And does kinda confirm a Gears 5
Yeah I think 4 is the start of a new trilogy, if I recall. I’m another one of those apparently rare people that care more for the story than the multiplayer action…especially when it comes to Gears.
The revelation at the end was awesome, man… I keep telling my slowpoke friend (dude takes centuries to beat any game) he needs to go on and finish the damn game because that reveal at the end (the very last shot before the credits roll) is a jaw-dropper, at least imo.
*I’m still wishing they’d “fix” Horde by adding some much-needed variety…that’s been my main gripe with Gears 4 lately…well that and the terribly slow grind it is to level character classes up in Horde, and the kinda lame loot system. If they just shamelessly copied the lootbox system Overwatch uses (give us 1 “box” or “pack” of various things with each level-up), I’d be perfectly ok with that.
