Operation 3: Gridiron

And hide behind JD

That also seems fitting for any reminders about Gears 4s Insane/Inconceivable Campaign played solo. Insane in particular. God that had some awful sections in it.

Well, at least they ā€œTriedā€ but not in the good sense of the word.

Little bits here and there just to keep some players happy but most of us have the same thought in mind;
"WTF TC?

More than half year and still looks like an unfinished game.

Just look at eSports a single game mode (as if you haven’t had enough) same maps different teams :joy::joy::joy:

Someone needs to slap TC in the face :rofl::rofl::rofl:

I see you lurking @GhostofDelta2

Now that I finished all 85 TOD 2 medals I can relax and just chill in Beginner Horde for a few days :smile:

This time I am planing to outright buy Cole, Clay, Myrrah, and Theron Guard. Gonna dive right in to those OP3 medals.

I was only able to finish it this time around because of the community’s help in the FFA tips thread and @Ektope and @anon32088142 carrying me through Escape. And because TC extended the operation by a month. And because of quarantine :sweat_smile: Only managed 81% in OP1 but the conditions were optimal for OP2.

This was a personal goal because I had felt guilty about dropping Gears 4 only 3 months after launch due to a crazy work schedule. This time I decided to enjoy the franchise which first made me sweat and feel the adrenaline shakes in PvP.

Anybody who wants help with medals and things, send me an invite: GT: Nineteenthhour

See you in OP3!

Except for the 2 maps, I liked it.

But just promise more maps for the future isn’t enough. At minimum they should had work to bring more Gears 4 maps , as the new ones are being designed.

Did they say what Cole and Clay’s starting loadout for Horde is?

Also: this is my non-melee build idea for Cole. Kind of a crowd control guy. Also, ā€œnearā€ needs to be defined for Soothing Warmth.

Perk Up – Max health and regeneration speed is increased by 50%.

Glow and Slow – Enemies that are burning are 50% slower.

Play with Fire – Active rounds have a 25% chance to burn enemies.

Pyromaniac – Burn damage dealt by Cole is increased by 50%.

Soothing Warmth – Health regeneration is 250% faster and has no delay when near burning enemies.

Am I excited? Nahh… I would have wanted more maps and I aint that interested in the new characters or their skills.
Will I keep playing? No doubt, but the time between horde matches played increases for every week. The one new map we got looks kind of interesting though.

They don’t want us making yet another broken, op meta that they have to nerf. Stupid bleeding barrier ā€œfixā€. Sharp Caltrops and razor wire…that’s literally their IRL purpose to sto shredd idiots to pieces if they’re dumb enough to approach your barricades. Vehicles or no

Pesangas were that type of stealthy commando type in general. They were from the islands too iirc. I noticed the mess up in the trailer. Says ā€œgalangi islandsā€. But Galangi is the name of an isle in the south islands of Sera. Or they have a retcon that says galangi is the collective name of a small part of the S. Islands.

due to Unreal Engine 4 similarities, getting direct and unaltered ports from Gears 4 will be our fastest route to padding the map count. anything prior will probably take just as long as a brand new map.

I’m totally fine with that but if we’re going down that route then TC really needs to ask the players what they want brought back. We don’t want another Rustlung situation.

nope

I’m at the point where I’m hoping for the franchise to change hands to another Microsoft first party (The Initiative/Ninja Theory) or an entirely new IP comes along and tries the Gears formula.

Outriders has an inkling of the that formula, sadly it’s a single player only game. It’s made by PeopleCanFly too.

Truly dont care if its easier. Im tired of getting the same remakes OVER and OVER and OVER again.

This has been a popular topic since Gears 4 when TC decided to do the same thing and we keep asking them not to give us the same remakes. So TC can say they are listening to us but they prove the complete opposite time and time again

Never gonna happen. You dont buy a studio and change its name to fit the 1 game they’re supposed to make. The best and only thing we can hope for is MS sees how mad and upset the community is with the way TC is handling this that they make some major changes

took you guys long enough, characters shouldve been playable on release which was almost 9 months ago but whatever

my main concern is the possibility that the recruit clayton skin’ll be one of those tour of duty medal challenges like classic baird (which shouldve just been unlocked by default) case in point please dont lock recruit clay behind doing 12k kills and stuff ty

I imagine we will get new Free for all map with new tiles hopefully within this OP. Also why no screen shots of the new tiles?

Well, I like the content, but in 4 months time, this all we get. I mean, I guess… 4 characters and essentially one map I’ll like. My opinion respectfully. But wow. This is… lacking. All I can say. Now before some smart ā– ā– ā–  out there says ā€œthere is more content that’s that.ā€ Yes obviously my guys… more content it has indeed. But in 4 months… it’s pretty weak. Obviously my opinion. However I think that if your satisfied by what you see so far, then your easily pleased. Too easily pleased in my mind. Set standards people, if that sounds like you XD. But seriously. I’m about to go on vacation and I was hoping to spend some time with Gears 5 and some buddies I work with. But yikes. I think I would rather play anthem or Halo MCC on PC. I may just gave up now. I’ll give it a shot. I know that the game will deliver more as time goes on in the next coming months. My beef though is that it seems we are getting very little at launch for this new operation. Also, from what I understand on how the characters and skins work, 4 characters isn’t gonna bring much I don’t think… atleast for the locust… maybe the carmines, but where is the grenadier or hunter variation? I was kind of hoping to see the hunters make a return in this OP. But I guess not. Hopefully sooner than later.

At the end of the day TC has no one to blame but themselves. 1 of the biggest issues Judgment had was having modes that required 2 different sets of maps. TC could have easily seen this coming from a mile away. And them giving us Gears 4 maps doesnt make things better.

Yeah,

While I was so hyped that canals is coming back,

It is only 2 again.

But,

TC added that they now know (finally) that we want maps and I expect 4 for the next Operation.

Especially since they can draw from a pool of maps from Gears 1-3 as well to bring back and that should help speed up getting more maps into the game.

Should never have launched with so few tbh.

They should have done a mass poll and brought back 5 Most Voted for Maps each from Gears 1-4.

That would have been 20.

Plus the 7 or 8 from 5.

Very healthy and at least 20 are from what the FANS want.

Then I could appreciate 1-2 maps per month for the 1st year.

And then 1-2 maps every couple of months for the 2nd year.

And then 1-2 maps every 3 months for the 3rd year.

Simple plan?

Doable?

I would think so with a 1st Party Studio like TC.

Im having a little deja vu right now. I feel we had this convo 1 too many times at this point. God forbid TC actually listens to the community
