Gears Tactics - opinion and future!

Gears Tactics
#1

Hi,

I m not sure if there is a thread like this, just wanted to say how impressed I am with Gow Tactics. Bought the game in order to unlock Gabe Diaz in Gow 5 (and maybe future characters), but now I am just enjoying the game. This could definitely be a future game (of course if not cannibalising the main Gow game).

I m actually all Gow MP, but this is something I have been enjoying (even though as in each game there are things to improve). But for a first installment of this kind, I am very impressed.

Besides all critics and negativity, wanted just to give a heads up and good job to the developer.

What s your opinion?

It is excellent, hopefully the start of a spin off series.

Yes it’s a blast,new to RPG just getting used to the control system,Loved to have this in a FPS Gears,That would be cool,but I’m not complaining that’s for sure

It’s great and one of the best XCOM clone games with great customisation for weapons and armor for your characters which NEEDS to be in Gears 6

#5

I play tactics for hours yesterday and can’t say the same for 5.
Really good game and really good spin off.

Just did the first mission. Have to admit that it will take a bit to get use to, as I have not played any games as such ever I think.
No matter I will be playing more of tactics. I did enjoy it.

Extremely fun. It’s a bit of a learning curve as I haven’t played many strategy games, but I’m having fun.

Although I have noticed a few bugs where encounters will spawn and then the game will freeze, forcing you to reload the mission. But that’s nitpicking lol. Great game.

Where was the training

I read gabe skin for gears 5 is unlocked when you finish the training but I didn’t even see any training lol

Insane is stupidly difficult. This game needs NG+ pronto. I want to enjoy the game, it’s a genre I like, but it’s annoying not having good upgrades and being shafted on being put to near death from drones, that you do a 3rd of the damage to or equivalent, no 2nd chances when 100% is lost.

Act 1 is a pain enough as it is. I can’t enjoy it. I’ve been shafted all day just trying to get past Act 1, Chapter 3

I think it is complete an entire Act now ?

The entire first mission effectively serves as the tutorial.

The skin is awailable on Nov 17th

Never played xcom, so “tactics” made me think FFTA. Not quite the same, but nonetheless happy with the game overall. Love that i can customize and equip my characters for a variety of roles. Only gripe is that novement cists AP. Sometimes i just need to move 1 spot over and its a waste of ap, yknow? Personally, i think ap and movement should be separate. Other than that, love the game and hope theyll add more. I think a pvp mode would actually be fun in this game. Or maybe a pve coop system of cycling missions. Each person could bring their favorite character

This game is average at best. Like I said in another thread, Wasteland 3 is way better and more fun.

Anyone playing it on insane difficulty? I started of with that and then was like ■■■■ this, would take way too long to get through for what its worth. So changed it and started again.

So far, the side missions are way too samey.

The movement in this game is flawed. You also end up getting ambushed most of the time, as you move forward… you cant see ahead till you move and when you get there, you’ve used all your AP up. Then the enemy is right there, which allows them to attack first.

If you’re playing Jacked Mode, use Jack as a sort of scout. Send him ahead and leave him an action point to cloak so you know what you’re up against.

#19

I had a message when telling me he was unlocked and he was a blue rarity.

Perhaps try restarting your game :slight_smile:
