This is the best gears game I've played
All it needs is horde 3.0
Mine just came through on my Xbox. Downloading now senpai. But I really didn't like UE.
>>334825058
Has it been confirmed yet?
Reminder that you need to hit level 20 in the beta to grab the exclusive content in the main game
Post webms
>>334825348
How doable is this?
I'll have time, but I also have work to do
UE is alot better
>>334825561
i'm lvl 6 after 2 games
>>334825561
I played for 2 hours and I got to level 11.
I'm decent at the game.
>>334825828
>a full game
>Better than a beta
YOU DON'T SAY?!?!
Gears 4 plays better. That's all that matters.
They already confirmed no horde. I'm glad.
Horde opened the gates to casuals that claim it's the best part of the game.
So how do we feel about the new cogfu?
>>334827303
Obviously forced ethnic diversity/10
fuck yeah just got my code
Code just came over smartglass
I'm pumped for crab people vs mexicans

You need to leave feedback and mention it doesn't make much sound.

So the locust were from underground
Are these guys from under da sea?
>>334828791
Looks that way. They're scaley and moist
>>334828791
Apparently, they piled the locust bodies up in a mass grablve and it mutsted animals or something?
>>334827537
She looks white but just covered in dirt
>>334828892
Source?
Why are we fighting the fish people from Pirates 2?
What can we expect from the big fellas?
>>334829728
Because Gears fans want to fight something that look close to the Locust.
>>334830243
The big fellas look nothing like the locust
>>334830243
Judgement showed that players hated human vs human mutliplayer, so gears 4 needs humanoid enemies to fight.
>>334829636
Literally just rumors
>>334830478
There are guys that clearly resemble drones in some way. Juvies running at you in firefights are probably like wretches as well. There might be non humanoid monsters like before but there's clearly a Not-Locust feel to the Swarm.
>>334830496
I know, I'm saying it's a good thing.
The swarm are water dwellers
When does the beta open for people that didn't play the UE before April 11?
>>334830676
Hopefully they act more animalistic, or have shifting behavior patterns
>>334830049
>>334830478
Why does everyone call them big fellas?
Why do we have to let bane posting infest everything?
>>334830951
>When does the beta open for people that didn't play the UE before April 11?
The 25th.
>7 tongues
For what purpose?
>>334831747
Just based on how they play...

Checking all day and still no fucking beta code
Did you need to buy it digitally to get a code?
I played Ultimate a lot near launch but not much since then, will I get the code?
>>334832182
>ultimate over 3
Disgusting.
>>334831841
>15 yeas old
Nah Japan, you're wrong on this one
>>334832547
Japan underages all their characters by about 4-5 years
>>334832668
She's not human so it's possible she matures faster
>>334832375
Pls
>>334832985
No.
I bought it physically and got my code an hour ago
I fucking love the movement in this game. I usually never wall bounce in Gears but I can't help but find myself doing it when I'm under fire. Also they need to fix the Amazing Silent Torque Bow
>>334833184
Grenades are also pretty silent.
I know the multi is supposed to be 60fps, but I'm getting some pretty serious slowdown in every game. Hopefully this will be addressed before release.
>>334832514
>muh Sod-off
Nope. This is better
>>334833386
Slowdown will be fixed, but I doubt we will get perfectly smooth FPS.
Honestly as long as it slstays close I'll be fine.

>complaining about sawed-off
Confirmed for bad, opinion disregarded.
>>334833597
They're going to get Gear armor at some point so I don't see a problem.
You're almost certainly a millenial too
>>334833597
In game
>JD is fine
>Del is OK
>Reyna and Oscar are fucking shit
>Kait is meh
>>334833786
So much nostalgia for the sawed-off, retro Lancer combo
>>334833819
i dont drink starbucks though
im not pic related, who this game is clearly trying to aim for
i bet they still havent fixed the problem of female character models having smaller hitboxes in MP so its better to pick a female
this pleases the beta cucks
>>334834112
Have fun getting wrecked by the snub pistol at 50 fifty feet.
>>334834112
>nostalgia for gears 3
I'm convinced that most of the people that claim to have nostalgia for it played it as their first prominent gears and mostly for "Muh horde"
>>334834268
You don't know how to wallbounce, do you?
>>334834354
Wall-bouncing with a sawed-off? Good fucking luck.
>>334834303
I've played every game since 1, even bought it on release. 3 was fun, sorry for the opinion.
It's boring and the characters aren't funny whatsoever like they were in 1-3. The game seems to take itself too seriously.
>>334834303
Three had the most variety for play and the best movement. I've been playing since the first Gears came out.
>>334834209
>this game is clearly trying to aim for
Gears is as dudebro as it gets, I don't care what clothes they're wearing.
I see you ignored that it's confirmed they're going to end up in Gear armor. Not surprising.
>>334834591
who care about "how they're going to end up" rofl
you start out as some dweeby quip-spouting faggot with a forced female companion and thats probably how it's going to stay
desu adding female characters was a mistake in gears, it's just fucking retarded
>>334834893
well meme'd
Gears of War?
More like Tears of War.
>>334834551
This. The dialogue and voice acting is shit.
>multiplayer
Love it. Love the movement and the new mechanics. Love the weapon balance. Map design is also clear enough to understand like the original trilogy but also easy to maneuver about. This could end up being my favorite gears multiplayer. It's a shame they don't seem interested on a true ranking system and are just doing experience again.
>Campaign
Everything I've seen from this tells me I won't like it.
Narrative-based long walking segments with shit tons of diologue.
Frat boy "JD" with his Espanic female partner.
2-player co-op max. No 4-player.
Literally looks like "The Gears of Us"
>Horde
This is the make or break. The defining bullet point.
If this is in the game, I'll buy it day 1. If it's not, I'll probably hold off.
Just from playing the beta I can already tell Gears 4 will be fun, but until I hear horde details or the campaign starts to look more promising, then I can't quite yet commit to a day 1 $60 purchase.

In the trailer, JD sees one and says "You're a big fella"
The sticky thread for E3 went fucking insane.

Kill yourself fucking retard.
>>334836426
Alright, how did he come across to you?
>>334835812
>>334836859
Are you basing this on the one trailer from e3?
How did they manage to make this game even more queer than the first 3 games? First it's sweaty muscle men with guns and chainsaws, now it's stronk independent womyn and beanie wearing laptop carrying starbucks sipping beta nu-male cucks. Gears is fucking gay, yo.
>>334836859
To me he just seems like some generic MC
It's so bad that I returned my useless Xbone.
>>334839541
Dude I know right!?
Reminds me of when I returned my PS4 when I found out the uncharted collection had no multiplayer.
I like it, but its a bit of a lagfest and I feel like UE has far better mechanics
at the same time, It sure doesn't feel like Gears of war 4, more like 3.5
Horde mode and Beast mode better be in it, because that's all I really played in 2 and 3
