I agree with you. Just not the claim that this is the end of Gears as in another thread and threats like: Iâll never buy a Microsoft studios product again; I wonât buy gears 6; Iâm uninstalling the game, etc. The rest of the uproar is fine.
Totally agree with you Cruezilla
Agreeing 100%
I feel like a good compromise would just be that they donât nerf the amounts, but make them doable in horde and escape. I donât play Gears for Versus and this game sort of sold itself on that they want players to play what they want.

Itâs the players that keep the franchise alive. When developers abuse us we have the right to let our wallets do the talking otherwise this will continue.

These new Op4 achievements are very do-able with a bit of grinding. Yes, they suck, but grinding for achievements is nothing new for a Gears game if youâre the type of person who cares for achievements.

Sure⌠if I wanted to get anywhere near Reup 40 within the next ~105 days I would have to spend 18 hours day(which I canât, and do not want to) doing nothing but Escape with 16+ ribbons on Inconceivable, which is also assuming I get at least 6-7 runs per hour done and every one yields 16 or more ribbons. That would get me around 46.96% of the way to Reup 50, or in other words, add like 24,460,000 XP to the existing amount Iâve gotten in Reup 23. And that wouldnât even be at Reup 40 yet.
Not that I care for the achievement but I contemplated going for Reups as a personal goal. I quickly lost the will to bother because Iâd either spend unreasonable amounts of time grinding 16+ ribbons or numbing my mind with a 1 ribbon method in Escape. Thanks a lot for âfixingâ Death From Beyond in Horde without addressing the actual problem AND announcing plans to add even more friggin Reups to the existing 50 ridiculous ones without addressing the core problem with the Reup grind, and not telling when youâll do it, if at all still, TC.

Sorry, I should have specified: these new achievement s being discussed din this thread is what I was meaning.
100k kills, 50k Assists, and 100M damage.
Agreed that reup achievemtns are too ridiculous of a grind

The reups arenât technically a focus⌠but it do is within the thread title(the Reup 40 achievement).
You can certainly run the kills achievements in coop vs ai. I did two Grid Iron achievements yesterday in coop vs ai. Iâll do some more but as I said before, I will not attempt to get 100,000 kills. Too many good games coming out that will take up some of my time. Canât sit there and grind that many kills. Heck, that achievement for killing 5,000 in vs in Gears 4 was a lot for me.

Indeed it does. The conversations seemed to have been focused on the kills so much that I forgot that fact.
It will work in Custom Versus (Private). Much better than Co-op vs AI.
Much faster⌠but âbetterâ is a personal interpretation, meaning it is boring as hell grinding those kills in custom.
I mean it would be faster even though itâs boring.
Yes, that too!
The fact theyâre talking about adding more re-ups when basically nobody is re-up 50 and the only ones that are have done so through various exploits (not hating just a fact) tells you all you need to know about these devs, completely delusional.

Yes, I agree itâs much faster. But my comment was alluding to the fact that âbetterâ could be some way to get 100k kills thatâs wasnât also boring as hell.
Some folks donât care how fast they get it as long as they have fun along the way and still get it. For 100M damage, there really isnât a viable way for 99% of the population to get that achievement in any sort of timely fashion that is not simply grinding bots, which a lot of people find boring as hell.

good luck finding one 
Co-op vs AI and Custom Versus would both be against bots anyway⌠unless youâre saying the company of human team mate players make Co-op vs AI better.
