Is there any of you that actually like gears 5?

Thought the Gears 4 campaign was pathetic so I was pleasantly surprised with the Gears 5 campaign, did well in developing character that bored the life out of me. However, I do find it peculiar how everyone just dismisses The first minister’s orders even though the COG are notoriously severe in punishments for disobeying orders…

I mean it certainly has foundations set for a quality gears, I’m personally happy with the fluidity of movement, (I know a lot aren’t) I can still wall bounce rather well.

But the multiplayer has serious flaws. Firstly the maps are seriously poor which leads to lancer fests, the ranking system is dreadful, if you’re not top two you lose points for some reason which has stopped a few of my mates playing since they’re supports and let others do the Gnasher work. It’s extremely difficult to get in a game with stack for some reason which makes it frustrating for me because whenever I solo que I’m matched up with teammates who are simply rather poor yet my opposition seem to find relative ease in clearing my teammates without too much hassle l.

The TC really needs to listen to quite a few of the issues already raised on here and elsewhere before the newcomers flock the next triple A upon release and never come back.

I play this gears casually, I don’t even play to get “sweaty” anymore. Gears 4 had a certain type of aggression you had to bring to each game. As a diamond level player from 4 to just an average joe on 5. I don’t see how Esports will work with 5. But the campaign was excellent.

I dig it. Half way through campaign and it’s awesome so far. Biggest complaint with Versus is aim assist in ranked modes. Weapons could definitely use some tuning (nerfed) but that’s to be expected. Movement took some adjusting but it doesnt bother me now. I also like ToD even if it’s a little grindy. I haven’t gotten to Horde yet but Escape is a fast and fun cooperative mode. I think the game is going to evolve a lot with all the post launch free content.

I really enjoyed the campaign, escape is ok and have yet to play horde. MP needs work for sure. I am hoping there are some updates to address some of the issues. Either way it gives me an excuse to drink beer and scream at the tv.

I only play horde and I like the new game. All the changes makes it some of a challenge now that demands you to rethink regarding ammo, building, use of power and strategy over all.

Sure I have gotten used to the amount of characters and maps that were in 4 at the end but it is coming in 5 eventually so the lack of them at the moment does not concern me.

I like the story, and it’s graphics are great. However, many are having issues, the game is a mess as far as playing it goes, and many find it too casual.

I enjoyed the story and the new Escape mode. I like the look of the game and the graphics. Horde is okay when you get a good group. The arcade mode is fun. However, the biggest issues are when you have a bunch of glitches on launch that are easily avoidable.

MP is a blast with me

The game as a whole, I’ve enjoyed for the most part.

Campaign was refreshing and much improved.

Escape is fun and challenging on the higher levels. Definitely requires thinking and team work at times.

Horde haven’t touched yet.

Versus is a disappointment

Honestly, the more I play it, the more I like it (I am talking exclusively about MP).
Although I am still not a fan of the slower wall bouncing movement, I seem to be getting the hang of it.

It’s alright, Im okay with it. A lot of unnecessary reinvention going on IMO but its fine otherwise.
