What are you expecting for operation 4?

Gears 5
#53

It might be Kait in escape op 4 since she’s getting a Hive Buster’s skin tommorow.

But Fahz in escape is something I want because he’d be OP

I don’t think that the Hivebuster skin for her is an indication of Kait coming to Escape, Octus mentioned(on Twitter, mind you) they didn’t want to hold the skin back due to their revision of the hero approach to PvE characters. But unless it’s a thing they can already bring with Operation 4, I’d say it’s likely we can see Kait in Escape then… but I would not get your hopes up. They’ll probably bring Del in with maybe some extra cards so he doesn’t completely suck as his main focus is technically being an engineer rather than a hybrid like Baird(who also brings the very destructive DR-1 with him and not just two Trackers that maybe will blow up a Drone or some Juvies) cause he’s easier to “balance”.

Hindsight is 20/20

Hopefully she’s in op 4 escape.

I know what hope has gotten me in this game so far. Mainly disappointment because changes and/or the good stuff simply aren’t/isn’t as quick as I’d hoped for. So I’ve dialed it down in favor of cautious optimism with a spray of realism/pessimism. At least that way actual surprises or good anmouncements are… well, better than just expectations.

Operation 4 minimum - 2 New Maps, 1 New Remake

Operation 4 ideal - 2 New Maps, 2 New Remakes

What will most likely happen - 1 New, 1 New Remake

To clarify, when I saw New Remake, I mean a map that wasn’t brought back in Gears 4. A new remake, like River or Azura.

Just to chime in with what I would love to see (but which almost certainly won’t happen):

  • Anthony, Benjamin and Gary all playable in Horde and Escape.
  • Paduk added to all modes (PVP and PVE).
  • Locust Grenadier and Skorge added as Villains.
  • Two more COG Heroes (like Dom, May, Sam, Dizzy etc) teased as mid-Operation characters who will be added to PVP, with intention to be playable by Op 5.
  • Three maps for Horde and Versus - two new designs and one remake.
  • Horde Frenzy added to private custom games.
  • Guardian returns to ranked.
  • One of the Horde-only characters to be playable in Escape (Kait, Fahz, JD etc).

Do I expect too much? I dunno if “expect” is the right word. “Dream” might be closer to the truth but it would restore my faith in TC massively.

Lovethe books just started reading them again thanks to the quarantine, up to the Slab, just finished Anvil Gate.

I’d imagine this is just him starting to do voice work (obviously nothing to base that prediction off of but that’s mine), I think earliest Dom comes out is Mid Operation 4 like the Carmines just did

Maybe, who knows what the plan is at this stage.

Always expecting the worse from TC is a good idea, I’ll have to consider it.

I never thought on it that way, as soon as i read this i thought of Baird. Old man Baird, and then old lady Sofia. Not quite the same feeling entered my head at that moment.
Unless of course, they have done some experimentation on her in her absence. Wishful thinking there, but you know, these things happen.
However your idea, fits with The Coalition way of doing things, chuck them in MP. Still though, i would really like to see Sofia return, as she was in Horde, and even as old lady Sofia.

I’ve also seen this with Sires aswell. More frequent at the start of their jump animation but also when they are walking towards you.

What i want;

  1. At least 6 new horde maps - maybe two old ones and 4 new ones, they could easily use the escape tiles.
  2. 2 new heroes - Sam and Anya with full PvE abilities and skills.
  3. Balance the enemies - nerf elite done damage, and accuracy.
  4. Bring venom cards into horde.
  5. Rebuff Clay and Lizzies cards that reduce ultimate cooldown time
  6. Balance JD damage (yes, I know). This along with enemy nerf should balance the game out.
  7. Reduce the camera shake on other players when JD uses heavy weapons.
  8. Redistribute and buff the card awards for the difficulties.
  9. Change the health and damage poisons in horde to be the last ones.
  10. Reduce the number of difficulties in matchmaking for both horde and escape so its easier to find a game.
  11. Introduce a greater variety of enemies - Gears 3 had much better enemy variety. Add in Lambent and Locust.
  12. Introduce more guns - Gears 3 had much better variety of guns, and they were also more balanced.

What i expect;

  1. 2 maps - remakes. probably they will put war machine into horde and one other remake.
  2. 2 Skins - maybe. and of characters that are already in the campaign. Paduk and that fat bloke from 4.
