Most of these predictions are baseless, just my gut feeling.
Cole Train Death
Oscar Death
Female Carmine, who will die
JD will betray Kait and Del somehow
Myrrah will temporarily take over kaits body and have a confrontation with Marcus
Sam and Baird have a young Son
Jinn death
Hoffman death
Major attack on the COG capital city.
Adam fenix data disc will be used
Reynas Necklace is used like a key
Oacar turns into santa and fights zombie raam who has a shiny red nose
Oooh I like some of these. I was really hoping we would see Sam and Bairds kid of some sort in this game.
Oscar is almost certainly the person Kait is upset over dying, the character is covered but he is the only family she has left and one of the only people she would react like that with
I canāt see them killing off Cole or any of Delta until Gears of War 6, Hoffman may die but heās probably going to die in a heroic last stand or something.
Jinn dying would not surprise me
Cole is dead! 
I would legit cry if cole died no homoš cole and Marcus personality wise have been my 2 faves since day 1ā¦doms death Had me hurt back in the day too man ā¦really gotta appreciate how much epic games made you feel for the original delta squad like u were there with them
Gears 5 will come out the gate hot till October then Iāll begin to lose its player base and then November will lose even more
if they do kill Cole Train they might kill off a lot of the fanbase too, Cole is a loved character
everyone expected Dom to die after GOW 2 and how he found his wife, dude was broken by it, we see how depressed he in in GOW 3 before his sacrifice
I predict there will be guns
JD will find out he has a sister he doesnāt know about. āJD, I am your sisterā
Then she proceeds to kill everyone and everything. The end.
Ever since Gears 3 campaign Iāve wanted to see this. Itād be great if that sarcastic conversation turned into reality.
@Topic:
Well weāve had years to get used to them. Dell, JD and Kait are relatively new, introducing new lead characters in an old storyline is always difficult. Iāve grown used to them, even a character lacking a serious backstory and personality like Dell (I presume theyāll make up for it in Gears 5).
I agree with a lot of this! I would love to see more connections to old characters and I like all the story beats you listed.
Since Kait and Del are the more story driven exploration side of the story Iād like a few chapters as Marcus and JD with the focus on action and bigger gun fights. Like what you suggested them defending towns or maybe storming a hive.
I predict people will die.
You just want Marcus to go after another person he cares for, donāt you? Itās quite clear him and Kait got closer between Gears 4 and 5(which I expect Ascendance will cover/explain to some degree), and Iām not sure if heād let another person go.
Also, itās Del, not Dell. Unless youāre purposedly writing it like that.
Thats the natural progresion of a launchā¦
Not this year my friend thatās why they have a September release date
The return of the 800-pound gorilla in call of duty Star wars done by respawn and of course Doom this is some hefty hefty game developers
I play escalation 4 to 5 hours a day I hear nothing but good news about game pass gears game pass will do very well but as for TC they donāt trust them very unfortunate
from what Iāve seen on escalation looks like they built that for eleague and esports not the consumer
if they spent as much time on versus matchmaking as they do on esports they would have a hit on their hand
My prediction is January February this will be a sea of thieves
Santa Oscar versus Rudolph the Kryll Covered Raamdeer would be a really cool way to just drench the franchise in muddy shart water.
After hearing the campaign is going to be āopen worldā I feel like TC is changing too much of the game just because they can. They may pick up some new fans with that but lose so many more.
From the reported changes and gameplay iāve seen so far I can already tell Iām going to be playing Borderlands3 far more than Gears5.
Its not open world, open area. For example, you can explore the whole of new hope, but only when youre their.
Whoops, not sure why I keep referring to him as Dell. Should I repeat, feel free to correct me again.
I wasnāt actually referring to Marcus, I just think that a cliffhanger is a real possibility. In a way it would be quite a cliche if Marcus/JD would go and rescue Kait.
I somewhat doubt that anything will happen to Kaitā¦ at least, on the Swarm side. Have doubts anything would make her go over to them. But whether she will return to the COG after her journey is something Iām not entirely certain of.
As for what I meant with the whole Marcus thing, I do think he would want go after her first thing if something happened or she disappeared and Del was unable to find her before returning and informed the others. But whether that, and how JD chooses to go about it, is shown in 5 or 6, thatās another matter. But if Marcus chose to go out for her, he would also have the argument of the whole Locust relation not working out in favor of the humans if they ever captured Kait.
But I must mention I hate cliffhangers. Especially for a matter like this. Iād want a conclusion to this, even if it was that Kait just went off on her own completely and isolated herself from everyone, or joined another community of Outsiders. Sheād probably rather kill herself than let herself be turned into someā¦ thing by the Swarm, if they would even do that if she was captured, and unable to free herself before they did anything with her. Even if she freed herself the chances of making it out of a hive alone areā¦ probably next to nothing.
