So while i was playing gears of war 5 today, i looked at some character differences and changes.
It’s not an issue, just something i want to point out with other people if i can…
Starting with the Op 3 Carmines, I checked out classic baird and compared him to anthony & benjamin, I’ve got to say the armor is very similar, but the shoulder’s seem to be more high on the carmines. I don’t know why…
so moving on to Anthony and the cog gear, they are definitely different, especially since cog gears have these elbow pads. What’s odd is the elbow pad isn’t really on the elbows, so idk if it’s because of the time it would take to animate those pieces or something else…
I checked out the voices for Locust and tried comparing to classic voices. It turns out the Locust drones have some sound modifier on them, which makes them hard to hear and their laugh emote is quite short comparing to the original locust laugh which was longer and louder as if the locust was crazy, which they are technically…
I checked descriptions of characters and again gonna be pointing them out as always.
The cog gears have the old line then this new pledge:
“…I shall hold my place in the machine and acknowledge my place in the coalition. I am a gear.”
The original description was:
“To be a gear is to be accepted into a unique bloodline, to have a bond tighter than blood”
I liked the old one, it represents the Cog as a military family instead of an actual army.
Now for the difference between old and new benjamin:
Well… there’s not really much except for his goggles size (same for anthony apparently), his arm ammo pouches which was introduced by gears 4 compared to his old arms being pouch-less and the medallion on every classic armor (don’t get me wrong, i like it.) compared to the old black painted symbol.
That’s kinda of all the things I could point out on characters, can’t point out anything on Myrrah since some of her voice lines are missing, but the ones she got are good anyways.
