Did Gears of War really deserve to die? Do you have faith that they could ever make a good Gears again?

Good luck with that

>>715214693 (OP)
it isn't dead tho, remaster of gears 1 is coming out in a few weeks and full new game is coming out within a year

>>715214693 (OP)
it absolutely deserved it how it shifted from dudebro shooter to screaming woman game

>>715214693 (OP)
I miss Gears of War 3. I stopped playing games to focus on work and school. Next thing you know, yer in your mid twenties and now 30.

>>715214693 (OP)
TF are you on about. E day is in the making

>>715214693 (OP)
Literally the only game series I can think of that says "fascism = good" for the first two games.

marketing thread because a new one drops in a month.
But, yeah, Gears was fun as shit especially because the multiplayer was anything but a cover shooter and revolved around abusing the magnetism to go fast and kill quick with broken shotguns.

Schizo post

Bionic Commando is a cover shooter

>>715214693 (OP)
First 2 were dude bro the game and honestly it was great. 3 lost its way and the rest was totally unnecessary
Better it die before m$ somehow makes it about disabled black trannies

>>715218390
Gears 2 gnasher duels were kino

>>715214693 (OP)
people need to stop ruining series with definitive endings. the way the swarm spawned post imulsion bomb was retarded and undies the canon laid by 3. then the rest of the games lead nowhere and just waste our fucking time

>>715214693 (OP)
E-Day is looking kino. Makes me wonder if rod Fergusson was the one making gears shit.

Gears Tactics is one of the best tactics game to ever come out. It's a real shame it was overlooked because it had the appearance of being trash or shovelware

1 > 2 >>> 3 > rest are straight liquid ass

gears 6 is coming out eventually i think. i enjoyed every single one of them and you cannot stop me

>>715221958
I liked it a lot but didn't finish it. Think I got just past the Brumak fight. Squaddies didn't gel with me the same as XCOM though.

>>715221958
it had its issues but it was really fun

>>715221885
women with no face are fucking kino

>>715214693 (OP)
The only bad Gears game is Judgement. 4 is OK, but I ended up liking 5 even if its ending is rushed. MP is solid and has a good chuck of the old maps too.

>>715221885
rub a dub dub three grubs in a tub

just downloaded gears 5 with my free xbobx game pass for 3 months that came with my laptop
my fucking tearsd when the game wont let me download the xtra part of the game that has the multiplayer versus ranked and the continuation past act 1 of the campaign
really fucking gay
im a gears oldie and used to wallbounce hardcore on xbox
hopefully it gets fixed cuz i found a news article where it said other people are having the same problem

>>715214693 (OP)
I recently bought an Xbone to play backwards compatible 360/OG xbox games and, despite owning a 360, I never played a single Gears game. My local retro vidya store had a buy 2 get 1 free sale on games under $5 a couple weeks ago and I bought literally every single Gears game up to 5.

Did I fuck up? Are there particular ones that should be skipped?

>>715222327
>Did I fuck up? Are there particular ones that should be skipped?
only Judgement. At the very least play 1,2,3, and Tactics

>>715222385
Tactics is the only one I didn't buy. I either didn't see it or didn't think of it. Got 1-5 + Judgement + the remake or whatever of 1.

And I thought Judgement was supposed to be decent. Is it really worse than 4 and 5?

>>715222770
i enjoyed judgement

>>715218390
>The lancer guy missing every single shot at the end
jesus christ

Gears campaigns are for retards. Like yeah man I watched the movie so hard.

can't believe they're being so cheap and just "remastering" a game that was already remastered for $40 instead of giving us the entire trilogy + judgement as in the "Marcus Fenix collection" like they did with Halo.
Fuck, you don't even NEED to remaster the games, just port them to modern hardware at a high resolution and framerate. It's that fucking simple, I don't need more, just give me the original games on modern hardware so they're not stuck on the fucking xbox 360.

THEY'RE SINKING CITIES WITH A GIANT WORM

>when u 2 piece the entire enemy team in a row as last man standing hiding round a corner
>receive death threats in messages after
so kink

i cant think of anything more satisfying that killing people in multiplayer with the gnasher except killing even more people in multiplayer with the gnasher

>>715220887
yeah sure i'll go for that

>>715215350
>second remaster of the first game

>>715225205
yeah its weird. i think they did it for playstation. i know they gave it away on xbox if you owed the digital remaster

>>715214693 (OP)
Gears should have only been 1-3. I feel it wrapped up nicely there. To expand the franchise the Pendulum wars was an obvious one, E-Day which we now are getting. They also should have made 4-6 completely seperated from the timeline. So Marcus Fenix is long dead or maybe its not even on the same fucking planet idk. But doing what they did was clearly the shittiest way to go.

>>715226537
the games are still fun but the new squad is lame and annoying. i hate jd so much its unreal

>>715214693 (OP)
They were always really shallow shitty 3rd person shooters.

>>715226881
No, they never were. You couldn't even beat Insane and you'd get your ass dumpstered online

>muh dudebros bad!!
Go jerk off to anime you fucking tranny fag

>>715226537
pretty much this, get rid of 5 entirely, make 4 as some prologue, then turn the game into prequels, about the pendulum wars with some sections focused on the locust vs lambent and how they plan to invade the surface, then plot twist from the rest of 4 to 6, the game is se a few hundred years into the future no legacy characters, no legacy tarnished, keep the swarm and the bs of the locust hibernating, not dead, at this point the locust-huma war os only a myth, the cycle repeats again, the biggest fuck up was to keep the story in the same lifespan of the legacy characters, they bet everything in a toxic wannabe girl boss, they expected sucess but they pretty much killed the franchise, that being said e-day would have come perfect with that setting of prequel story campaign.

>>715214693 (OP)
Some things are best left in the past. Do you need more than a trilogy?

Microsoftpenis can't make good games. Just look at Halo.

I don't know why gay niggas are so concerned about "franchises".

We have Gears of War already. And a couple great sequels. You don't need to have a perpetual slop to "keep the ip relevant". It's cringe.

>>715228332
Just finished the MCC the other night, Halo is overrated

>>715214693 (OP)
Gears of War was a product of the rental age. It shouldn't surprise anyone it died along with it. A new gears comes out, you rent it, beat it in one all nighter with friends, a big bag of weed and pizza then forget it ever existed. No one actually bought gears games, the multiplayer fucking sucked compared to other bigger console franchises.

>>715214693 (OP)
Yes.

>>715228767
have you ever killed anybody with a gnasher? i dont think you have

>>715228773
these guys are more of a meme then you are i bet noob

>>715227364
Exactly, they totally missed the perfect chance to reboot the narrative while expanding the universe. Setting it centuries after the originals would've made the Swarm even more threatening-like an ancient evil thought to be myth returning outta nowhere. Would’ve given them room for new characters, new politics, tech progression, and world-building without shitting all over the OG cast. Instead, we get Diet Marcus with father issues and some half-baked girlboss whose entire personality is "I'm mad and mysterious." E-Day should’ve been the launching point for that deeper lore, but they just can’t let go of the past.
