Gears of War 4 Beta thread?

Cons
>maps so far
>active reload affecting unspent rounds
I feel the maps are the biggest offender though. They are incredibly uninspired. Every map in Gears 1/2/3 took place somewhere. There was sense in it's design. These maps feel more like paintball courses with different tilesets.
people who complain about netcode are shitters who fail to get good

my main problem so far has also been the map selection, everything else seems pretty good.

Just sold my Xboner but heard that Gears 4 is getting a PC port anyway.
Looks meh.
Huge gears 1 and somewhat 3 fan (hated 2). Is the netcode really better? I watched a stream and it looked terrible and the textures look awful.
i haven't played gears since 2, does the multiplayer still revolve around wallbouncing and rolling around with shotguns? can you do well against good players with the lancer or the hammerburst?

It feels so good. Shots kill when you'd expect. and don't when you wouldn't.
I'd like to add sound to cons. It's hard to hear footsteps especially and the shotty lacks punch. All the sfx sound "under" the sounds of the level itself. It's probably a mixing issue and will get fixed later.
That does not look great. It looks like they made a super basic map and slapped prebuilt models around it.
Of course it could just be a horrible quality webm but the graphics are ass, if you told me that was Gears 2 with color filtering removed i'd belive it

Yes
>can you do well against good players with the lancer or the hammerburst?
Yes, but you always could since gears 1.
>>334898982
yeah, but it always felt like you were at a disadvantage if you weren't bouncing around with a shotgun. i haven't played since release though so i was probably a total shitter.

In gears 2 wallbouncing was toned down because of stopping power. The lancer was really good at just controlling space.
Gears 2 played "slower" overall. Larger emphasis on team tactics. It was my favorite Gears.

not 100% confirmed i think
"PC?"
"possibly"
I miss the single shot hammerburst. Always used to piss people off because I could shoot it fast without a modded controller.
Looks like garbage. Sent.
how the heck do i do the knife stab after i pull a motherfucker over cover?
Ended up with a key even though I don't have an xbone.

Thanks anon, I'll give it a go
Graphically it looks like shit, that's really my only complaint other than the Hammy being garbage again.
Where the fuck is my code?

No they're very clearly not.
