I hope we see weapons from the pendulum wars like a rocket launcher of some sort but I’m excited to see the retro lancer again and see if they cool with the bayonet charge from gears 3
I actually have been thinking a rocket launcher would be cool to see! A one-time, big explosion rocket to really send an objective point into disarray 😂 I recently was playing some Gears 3 MP again for the first time in forever (footage in the video) and I was going for SO MANY charges, its so damn fun still!
If they did add an armor customization what if they made each bit of customization have a utility purpose, such as more ammo pouches allowing for the players to have more ammo at the cost of being more weighted, or for the players to have less armor and utilities allowing for them to move faster, and to somewhat refine it add semi classes; for the cog it could be armor sets such as the veteran, standard trooper, destroyer, and commando armor sets that give their own abilities, and for the locust it could be locust races such as kantuses, grenadiers, drones, and therons.
The issue is that this leans into a meta with whatever load out gives an edge, the games already sweaty enough with the gnasher and wall bouncing, imagine adding finding optimal loadouts to that balancing
@@space_racc you make a good point, hmm maybe by making loadout specializations the problem of meta could be somewhat solved, such as a loadout that specializes in closer ranged cqc situations would have a precision penalty on a precision weapon such as the long shot but have a damage buff on shotgun type weapons such as gnashers and sawed offs and ect through a system that balances your equipment types and in game stats and play styles, so as to not let the player abuse a mixture of the best parts from each play style allowing for a better initiative of one picking their own combat style without the threat of one generalized route conquering all the others 🤔
I appreciate the idea and I think it could work for something different than multiplayer! I think the issue for MP, is it'll remove the "same start" aspect of the game which is core. BUT I think for extra game modes this would be a cool edition to add more layers to it! It might work for Horde or maybe if they ever do extra side missions similar to Halo 4 Spartan Ops!
I think that should just be used for hoard or a game mode like overrun or a big 10v10 capture in defend mode where the cog have to hold the locust back in Oder for civilians to escape a hospital via bus
I just hope we have variety and purpose And not what halo Infinte did where many in the fanbase now have the mindset that We can’t have two weapons fill the same role and each weapon must fill a super specific niece / Role or it should not exist and because of that so many fan favorites got removed.
I agree, even if two weapons fill the same role or even play similar, there's nothing wrong with that exactly! Sometimes just hearing and shooting a different weapon is all it takes to make things more interesting!
Great possibility to see more UIR weapons and COG weapons that were thrown out not long after E day (like the rocket launcher) but also a possibility to see civilian weapons lile hunting rifles and other stuff that has been mentioned in the books
Oh no, you have the comp Gears players, they love their Sniper Variant Gnashers, they gonna crucify you. (I agree with you on the Gears 3 aspect for Eday)
Sometimes the problem isn't the overpowered weapons (well, maybe only for the gnasher), sometimes its the crazy high stopping power of the weapons. In Gears of war 3 it got really irritating that soon as someone picked up a retro lancer you knew you were dead because once they shot at you you could barely even move. The retro lancer is already crazy powerful without the stopping power, I mean at close range it basically rivals the gnasher in gears 3. So my solution is to lower the stopping power just a bit to allow the players that are being shot at some time to react in that situation and do whatever they have to to respond.
I like that solution a lot! Yeah, the Retro Lancer in Gears of War 3 was crazy powerful even after they patched it! I do like the stopping power aspect of the games, but it shouldn't debilitate the player to the point that you can't go anything! Make it a miniscule amount, a minor minor inconvenience.
Great video man! I too never had xbox live as a kid. So I only had the campaigns to gauge how fun a game was. What I am wondering is are they going to change any weapons up? Will they yet again make a new version of the hamerburst? Also very interested what new ones there will be. Also full agreement in quality over quantity I'll take 10 good guns over 20 crap ones any day.
Thanks Rocket! While not having Xbox live sucked when all my friends had it, it did lead me to players the campaigns way more! That's a great question, I think they will give us the OG Hammerburst and maybe tweak its damage output and also the Retro Lancer might get a boost in the new game! Just ever so slightly to make it a better option in the MP! I'm super excited over the new ones, I can't wait for them to give us more info on them and let us start theory-crafting!
This isn't about weapons but there's a lot I'd like to see in E-Day, I would like beast mode to come back for one, but also an additional game mode added onto beast where it's like a sort of reverse horde where you can play as humanoid Locust and survive waves of COG soldiers. It can even go off of "capture the leader" rules in which one person plays as a Kantus and has the ability to heal but has to play passively in order to not get gunned down and potentially cost the team the match. That's my dream gamemode at least. Oh, and LOTS of offline singleplayer content, bring back LAN compatibility and of course "multiplayer" with bots. To solve the "issue" of players grinding levels offline to get their skins, COD black ops 1 did something cool where they let the player have a separate offline progression system while fighting against bots that didn't affect the real multiplayer experience. I'd like to see that in gears as well!
Damn, a lot of great ideas! I would like Beast mode to return as well but would like it to be vastly expanded! More Locust, more humans, and more objectives. Something to add to its replayability and keep players engaged! Any 'extra' game mode that they bring back should be improved to give players a reason to play it over the old ones. But anything where we play as the Locust would get my stamp of approval!
Just wanted to throw my opinion out there I hope its like 5s currently I like the class and card system I understand the power system complaints so maybe go back to a point system but either way its the one I played the most and had the most fun with my friends @@CarmineForever
I would just make it like gears 2 that to me was the best multiplayer game gears 3 retro lancer and gears 5 lance made the game feel like cod I like up close as well as special weapon domination who ever controls the strong weapons win style gaming
I do agree that the Gears 3 Retro Lancer was a bit too strong, especially at launch, but I tend to think the Gears 5 lancer is very underpowered and utilized!
As much as I’d love them to use different weapons, at the end of the day, it’s always gonna be the Gnasher. When I first started playing multiplayer I hated it because in campaign and hoard. The Lancer is pretty awesome but in multiplayer it’ll always be the Gnasher
I've always thought it came down to the map design strangely enough, we need more open spaces to fight with longer times between cover! That was the other medium/long range weapons could have places to shine instead of the gnasher dominating! I could be a hopeless romantic, but I dream of the day the sandbox become much more open and expansive again!
Lol, yeah i forgot how dang much the community abuses the gnasher. Hope the new game doesn't make the mistake of "shotgun everything and wall bounce again" Every power weapon should be important to the map
I do hope E-Day has more focus rather than just Gnasher heavy! Either way I recommend playing the prior games as they are really good! I don't have the new Xbox consoles which you can play them on but I just got a Xbox 360 slim to play them and love that I made that decision!
Yeah, NEVER let people spawn with the retro ever again. The main problem with gears 3 multiplayer is the fact that you can spawn with that gun. It’s too strong if a gun to spawn with
@ retro was NOT weak but accurate, literally the opposite. The reason it was such a cancer in 3 is because the recoil was irrelevant as you could just burst fire it and down someone in 2-3 burst, it was way too strong for a starting weapon. The fact that it out performed power weapons means something
I do agree that it was too powerful, especially at launch! But I would like the numbers to be tweaked and see how that works mainly because it did bring in a new dynamic! Plus I absolutely adore charging with it at enemies!
I got so mad when they changed the hammer burst 2.0. They added the relic wepons but could not add both hammer burst variations? They could have just given us the 1.0.☹️
I think we will be getting it back in E-Day! Its only ever been (I believe) in Gears of War 1 and Judgment so its return is more than welcome to switch things up!
I'm sure E-Day will release, but I think Gears 4 and 5 were good! Story wise I don't think they overall compare to the OG trilogy, but MP-wise they are very fun!
Yeah, I might be wrong on the exact numbers, but I did try to say "about" and "around" since I wasn't precisely sure! But this was my list: 1. Boltok 2. Boomshot 3. Mace 4. Buzzkill 5. Claw 6. Cryo Cannon 7. Dropshot 8. Enforcer 9. Gnasher 10. Hammer of Dawn 11. Hammerburst Mk 2 12. Lancer GL 13. Longshot 14. Retro Lancer 15. Chainsaw Lancer 16. Markza 17. Mulcher 18. Snub 19. Overkill 20. Salvo Rocket Launcher 21. Talon 22. Torque Bow *missed* 23. Tri-shot!
just make it like gears 1 and 2 with the perks from judgement, gears 3 was just one horde mode after another and so on which is just a borefest, i don't even like horde mode. idk wtf they were doing with gears 5 but seemed like some out of season lesbi%%% game
I also think Gears 3 has the best horde mode, it just felt much more enjoyable with a simple understanding that anyone can hop in and comprehend! Mainly, I just hate the energy system or having to run around and collect it IMO but a story like Gears 2 would be a hard reach but MORE than welcomed! While I don't agree with the last comment, I do think they dropped the ball a bit on Gears 5 on a bit of everything. Its like almost an amazing game, but its missing the passion!
I hope we get NEW weapons, too. (Maybe UIR, Stranded or Locust, or all 3)
Definitely need more UIR weapons for sure, there's a lot of unexplored territory in that aspect! But hell, I will take all 3 factions!
Man, I really hope they make it a long campaign. And really dive into the lore. Anyhow, great video homie
Thanks man! 🙏 I hope they go VERY heavy into the lore, I just love finding out more about this universe so give me more storylines and collectibles!

"The lancer takes a backseat"
Oh I wouldn't say that
*flashbacks to fighting campers with lancers*
I hope Gears 1 Hammerburst makes a comeback I used to love that weapon, I loved when it returned in 4.
It has the best chance than ever before! It's always been a fun weapon to use, especially in Judgment!

they need to give a WAR mode 10v10 just for the chaos and fun of it. too many of the current game modes are super competitive
10v10 sounds badass! It would def switch up the feel of the game so much and add so much "freshness" to the franchise!

In E-Day we trust. And same here bro I didn't have live either growing up so I relied on story mode being good

It's cool to see if they will choose to go with the lore or with just every impressive weapon 😂
When it comes to MP, I say fuck lore, give us the fun stuff 😂

I hope we get the gears 1/Judgement classic Hammerburst.
Yeesss! I think its finally time for its return
Lol, yeah i forgot how dang much the community abuses the gnasher. Hope the new game doesn't make the mistake of "shotgun everything and wall bounce again" Every power weapon should be important to the map
Lancer:
Campaign/horde: make it tear trought walls
Multiplayer: make it deal 0.0000000001 damage
😂
Sawed off with bayonet. Confirmed. 😂
5 was my first gears game and i swear if e day has really bad weapons or just sucks im buying a console and playing the older ones
I do hope E-Day has more focus rather than just Gnasher heavy! Either way I recommend playing the prior games as they are really good! I don't have the new Xbox consoles which you can play them on but I just got a Xbox 360 slim to play them and love that I made that decision!
I need the classic hammerbust
I think we should be getting it back when E-Day returns! I didn't like the OG version but somehow Judgment made me like it back then!
Well lore wise the hammerburst mk1 should be the standard weapon as it was used in gears of war 1
Yeah, NEVER let people spawn with the retro ever again. The main problem with gears 3 multiplayer is the fact that you can spawn with that gun. It’s too strong if a gun to spawn with
I kinda liked that you can. The Lancer MK2 is the balanced. Retro Lancer is the weak but accurate. Retro is the heavy but hard to control.
@ retro was NOT weak but accurate, literally the opposite.
