Really trying to push through Gears 2. Does it eventually get better (meaning the games afterwards)? Awfully boring locations in this game and WAYYY too much vehicular combat. I thought I was playing a 3rd person cover shooter, not world of tanks.
I literally just replayed 2 and 3 over the past couple of weeks with a buddy. I view them through super nostalgic glasses, but if you're not enjoying 2, go ahead and skip to 3. 3's a bit smoother and the environments are more interesting. As far as 4 goes, I agree with whoever said it was YMMV. The first couple of acts don't really feel like Gears to me, especially the first one. The mechanics and gameplay are pretty smooth, though.

Loot boxes and paywalls like a mofo. I am surprised that any Gears product is rated 12+. The main screen has two characters fighting with chainsaws gun things. No I don’t know the terminology, I’m not a fan of the games.
If you wanna know, the gun is called a Lancer.

 
Damn that $150 survey. I make it all the way until how many times I check the rewards app on the Xbox and it excludes me.

Preinstall is up for Gears 5 UE on gamepass.

Update on my quest to 1000gs skyforce reloaded. I have finished stage1-9 on insane and just a few more stages then I believe I have to beat it with all the other ships but I think on normal is fine not insane atleast I hope so.
 
Well Generation Zero is very interesting. Fun and looks really good, but lots of jank and completely broken stealth mechanics. Combat isn't very good either, but still somehow a somewhat fun game. Wouldn't pay more than $12-15.
 
Nvm. Game is terrible. It's basically trying to kill as many enemies as possible then suiciding, respawn, repeat. That's all the game is, at least playing solo. You take WAYYY too much damage.

I can see how it might be fun in coop, but its basically unplayable solo.

Agreed. I have played it far more than I thought I would have. A little sad that the CAG crew is already full.

Just made a second one for anyone that couldn't get into the first one. CAG XB2
Hopefully they actually set it up where you can make it invite or even password. I'm on a discord far less popular than CAG and the clans basically instant fill up with complete randoms.

 
I fucked up my game in Gears POP because the leveling system is really convoluted. 

There are multiple tiers for leveling:

-individual unit levels (increased by getting duplicates of that unit from loot)

-your own player level (increased by leveling up your individual units)

-your arena level (increased by earning gears from winning matches)

Loot boxes are pretty good about giving you units for upgrading if you open a lot of them, but you can only have 4 at  time (5 with a win streak) and they either cost in-game currency to open or they have a timer, minimum 3 hours for the medicore ones. If you use your gold crystals to open them, you can win matches and get a lot of loot boxes over and over, but that preemo currency is hard to come by.

Yesterday I kept winning matches while my loot box inventory was full, so I leveled up my arena without getting lots of loot. Now I'm arena level 3 and everyone I play against has units which are much more leveled than mine, so I'm outgunned in 75% of the matches I try to play. Since you only increase your arena level by winning, the system assumes if you're in arena level 3, you are a bad-ass bitch by then, and I unfortunately am only a moderate bitch by arena 3 standards.

I can't get more loot boxes to level up my guys without winning matches or spending real money. Even then, you primarily purchase in-game currency, not the loot itself (so it's not gambling, right???).

I might see if I can erase my save and start over but honestly I think I'm over it. 

Learn from my sacrifice.

You might de-rank with losses, but since earn 25-30 gears for wins and only lose 5-10 for losses, you'd need to lose quite a bit of matches. You'd need to lose 5-6 matches for every match you win, so you'd de-rank below 600 gears in the 595 range, win a match, get promoted again....

It's not balanced for that kind of thing at all.

 
Hey, Gears 5 is supposedly available to pre-download if you have GPU. I have it, but when I select the banner on the Game Pass home screen; it says not ready yet, come back soon.

Anybody else having this issue?

It only downloads a 100mb stub or whatever. I assume over the next two weeks it will download the game so it will be ready on the 6th.

I had trouble downloading it at all. I hadn't used my XBox much in the last month or so. It wasn't connecting to the Wifi. Got that straightened out but still couldn't get the download to kick off. Maybe an hour later it started downloading updates to about 20 games. One of which was Gears 5.

Hopefully my console will still pull it down before the 6th so I can play it when I get up the next morning.

Really tempting, but I don't ever envision a time I won't have Game Pass, so I don't need to own FH4. I have the car pass; I feel like if I just wait a little while, the expansions will be a lot cheaper.

 
If the expansion a code or on the disc?  If it is a code you could trade the disc right back in.  I have done this with other games.

$20 store credit at GS for the disc (before PUR).

 
This is exactly why I dont win matches; why bother going to arena 3 and lose matches, when you can do it arena 1. :)

Well, you can always start over GGP - now that you know the mechanics and know what NOT to do, it may just be a breeze. But, I understand, it was not designed so that you can win upgrade and move on. It was meant to keep you waiting, staring, commiserating until your next upgrade/loot.

I like it so far; I win two and lose one almost like clockwork. Its useless fun while I wait around or when I have to "talk" to my wife. Works wonderfully until I have to repeat what she asked. :wall:

 
Update on my quest to 1000gs skyforce reloaded. I have finished stage1-9 on insane and just a few more stages then I believe I have to beat it with all the other ships but I think on normal is fine not insane atleast I hope so.
Nicely done. You must be playing it a lot because there are cards you have to have just to help. I’ve got 1-6 done on insane except for 5(I have always hated that level.)
 
Hopefully my console will still pull it down before the 6th so I can play it when I get up the next morning.
For what it's worth it looks like they are going for a 9pm Eastern Standard Time / 6pm Pacific Standard Time on the 5th so it should have downloaded well before then. Don't know your situation as to "the next morning" but yeah not having to wait until Midnight for some arbitrary reason is going to be great.

Ok so I'm not the only one who hates 5, good. I reached upto 8 on various difficulties. The only reason I play it now is because my son loves it and we do co-op every once in a while.

I am usually getting ready for bed around 10pm Eastern. I might try and hop on if it actually works at 9pm and get through the opening or whatever I can before 10-10:30. Or I might just wait until morning anyway.

Nice it isn't a midnight Eastern release like most games in the past.

What helped me on 5 on insane was getting the other ship pick up and had that one get hit with the weapon nullify ball.After that it was a matter of not getting hit while destroying everything in my path while rescuing the little men.
 
I'm kinda blown away here that anyone doesn't like Gears 2... that game rocked my world back in the day.

Question for Crackdown 3 experts: Does it matter what agent you pick at the start? I just picked one that looked cool. I'm unlocking more agents but I'm seeing all these achievements that are "Do X on the same agent." Do you lose progress somehow by switching agents?

Switching doesn't matter, it's the "world" that is different progress, but the character levels can be the same (yes that's confusing).

Different agents level skills differently, so if you are trying to level up kills or melee, etc, make sure you're using someone who has a bonus stat for whatever you're focusing on. This is the only impact on progress that swapping agents will have.

Gears 2 was the champ. I loved the bar the best. It's the best place, hiding in the saloon-ish place, Putting shields across doors, busting ass from 1 to 50.

 
I don't get why they're dragging their feet about that. It's not like they have any plans to port the better version of 4 (aka 2025) or 5 which are already on PS4.
You quoted me back in May. About me saying Make EDF 2025 a Sept GWG....It's almost September...lol...is it happening?

Gears 2 will always hold a special place in my heart. It was the game that really got me into the series overall and the MP specifically. I remember trying the MP out a while after the game was out and just got absolutely wrecked. Couldn't figure out why anyone would play. And here I am, hundreds of MP hours later.

Are you talking about Nowhere with the sand and the diner? Strategically placing the boomshields on the various maps so you could do all 50 waves was great.

 
Pushed through to Act 5 (I think) of Gears 2 and it has somewhat gotten better, but it still has way too much vehicle/flying combat. Im surprised how much I actually like the true gameplay of Gears, so I'm not sure why they felt the need to add so much vehicle combat. That tank mission in Act 4 literally took close to half an hour. Not fun.

I can’t remember how I got it one the second tier on mobile but I did. That level is horrible in all versions of Skyforce. That’s a good strategy for getting rid of that ball.
 
Speaking of gears these came in 2 days ago and these feel really nice in my hands.Ill be giving away the dlc for kait Diaz I believe it's a outfit for gears 5.Just like this post and I'll randomly pick someone.[attachment=32661:20190823_143339.jpg][attachment=32661:20190823_143339.jpg][attachment=32662:20190823_143314.jpg]
 
I gotta say, Gears POP is more fun that I thought it would be
It was fun until the sweat got real. Once I realized you're randomly matched against other players who clearly have been upgrading like mad and understand the game far more than I care to, it stopped being fun. Soul-crushing defeats in less than a minute was my NOPE moment before uninstalling.

Forgot Gears was coming out (read: not even on my radar lol) or that GPU gets it free. WHELP, just another game to DL and have sit for months before I get around to it. WoW classic in 4 days. . .make that two years later LOL.

Do you know if that DLC is included in the ultimate version of the game? I don't want to potentially win it if I already get it. I assume not but really haven't been following this too much.

Controllers look cool.
