But this isnt the only bad thing regarding Gears channel
1- They are still uploading at 1080p/30fps max
2- They grab videos from Twitter or streams and just upload them to the channel, low quality videos, even for 1080p YT compression
3- They dont push the videos with Ads
4- Upload videos without sound for fucks sake
Are you expecting me to defend them for having a bad YT presence? lol
Without sound? All of my work is YouTube related. It doesn't happen.
Still, the video looks pretty good, i'm just really impressed that this happened
Does it bother people so much that i found it weird that someone uploaded a video without sound on the game's official channel?
yikes
You know, structuring the campaign like a more simple version of ME1 would be pretty cool in my book. Especially if there are big missions you can do in any order.
They are huge in the states. Me and most of my friends choose Rockstar over the other brands.
I don't follow? I made a comment about the situation and how the game looks great and it began this tiring discussion about the game's marketing and other unecessary stuff.
Huh? I just said this Gears 5 talk is getting weird and weirder. I didnt even quote you and you went so saying it bothers me and yikes.
Sorry, i interpreted that as a response to my post. Guess i'm more on defensive mode since the marketing discussion that a lot of people piled on me.
There was a significant and unarguable drop in mid tier games starting last gen. Games either were smaller Indies or expensive games that were very safe due to how much they cost to make.
Services like Game Pass open up the door for AA projects again. I'd also argue that not having all games on the same platforms is good for the industry. Content wars will force platform holders to take more risks and fund different types of games.
I would argue that these mid tiers publishers (Focus Home, THQ, 505 Games, etc) finding huge success with these different experiences are also helping these kind of experiences to thrive, besides Game Pass opening new opportunities.
OK BIG GEARS INFO DUMP BOTH ON VERSUS AND CAMPAIGN
Starting from versus: https://youtu.be/MAUd7KVGB2k
in this trailer at 0:05 you can spot Kait holding a brand new weapon and the desert skin
0:06 behind the swarm you can see a new map
0:09 the granade looks more powerful than ever
0:10 snow new map and an extremely nice new animations with the cog character holding the swarm granadiers by his chest plate and maybe an onyx guard
0:12 hammer of dawn and maybe new map
CAMPAIGN the part which everyone pretends to be interested but it's a vague 20% of the game
New Ephyra will be a hub but not like a mass effectish one, you can still talk with secondary characters, like baird in his lab, but you won't able to return there when you want like ME but only in precise moment during the plot
The ow part is compartimented in fixed regions you had to visit in order and the open part is with the skiff, once reached the walking part it's similar to the previous chapters

Gears' campaign is the main reason a ton of players are invested in the franchise so the 20% comment is... different.
Using the skiff probably isn't about hiding loading screens. They're probably trying to give a sense of exploration to that portion of the game.
There are tons of people that are more interested in campaign mode than MP. There are many that only interested in gears franchise because of the campaign. So stop pretending nobody cares about the franchise with some of the best single player moments in gaming history.
So we veer from that to this. I am not sure how you can extrapolate qualifiers like 'slightly bigger' or the skiff as a loading screen from, in essence, 'not full open world', which nobody has ever known. Let alone their 'hiding' it because expectations that apparently vary wildly amongst the hardcore in one corner of the internet on the basis of nothing are going to be confounded.
I much prefer to wait and see. This is nuts.
I only play Gears campaigns as well. Haven't touched an online MP mode in 4. I love SP in Gears.
Me included. I'll give multiplayer a chance this time but Gears campaign is why I'm excited. At this point though, I'm fine going in blind. No point in spoiling things just a few days before release. Don't understand the marketing outside of this being a Game Pass test.
there's more then 20% that have interest on the campaign and i and many people are only play the campaign and never play MP
Is that just an Overkill or am I missing something?
I totally buy the 20% comment. Most people never finish the campaign in games like this, and a huge chunk of the fan base barely even starts them. Same deal with Halo.
I don't really trust Morgoth's sources (considering how offbase he was on a lot of things) much less his idea of what matters or doesn't, what i am curious about is the 10x (or something like that) bigger areas on the campaign that the guy with sources talked about some time ago here on this thread. Really curious how they'll pull that off with the kind of gameplay Gears has.
Well, 20% of 5 million is 1 million people.
That's a hell of a lot of people!
Also a good point. 27% of people who played Gears 4 beat it. That would include Gamepass dabblers.
That's actually a good number. Most gamers don't beat the campaign. And yes, many people buy Gears solely for multiplayer. Still quite a large number of people who play the campaign.
So Onyx Guards, the ANBU/Golden Saints of Gears of War? you know, the kind of OP characters that do nothingonyx guard is all i need
WHAT?
I'm a bit pessimistic with this game lately but i didn't come to that conclusion
