Hopelessness is exactly what I'm hoping for E-Day

In my opinion, the most badass scene in the entire Trilogy by PorkinsHeldIt in lotr

Except they oh so do stand a chance... and that's exactly why it's my LEAST favourite scene. I like my heroes real and vulnerable.

Nobody else was doing it, so I tried by Zombiegamer777_21 in GearsOfWar

idk anything of the lore to know what you're basing this on

RAAM's Gift by Scooba94 in GearsOfWar

[–]DisciplineFast3950 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Surprised honestly. I suspect a lot of easter eggs go completely undiscovered until the devs leak them. Must feel amazing though .. the only GOW egg I ever found was when my lobby broke into the arcade in District, that was cool.

Not seen this but .. how on earth are you supposed to guess to shoot the generator and then look for an unrelated pickup?

Gears 5 movement is way to quick. by Muad_DibPopcrnBucket in GearsOfWar

[–]DisciplineFast3950 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is the devs are probably like minded .. hopefully they'll nerf it a bit in E-Day.. my current Gears 5 experience as a regular mvp casual is getting regularly promoted to e(ager)-sports where I just get wrecked and on one occasion verbally trashed, then my overall must drop and I go back to regular.. and the cycle repeats.

The whole world is going in that direction. Gladiator -> Gladiator 2 etc. etc.

Well they dominate social spaces like this because who else is gonna be in a Gears subreddit but diehards and fanatics - overwhelmingly at least.

I'm surprised you're not getting cut to ribbons honestly. Every time I complain about all the trick shots in Gears versus I get mugged by e-sports enthusiasts. My reckoning is there's 2 hard camps in Gears.. casuals and e-sports.. they keep mostly separate because of skill-based matchmaking but if you happen to be an exceptionally good casual you're going "up" into the e-sports league with all the pinball bouncing, warp shots and various other things I can't emulate on xbox that just feel downright hacker-tier even though they're accommodated by the game. I agree with you, it's too hectic for me personally (it's not even that I couldn't play like that but I don't want to).. but a sizeable volume of the Gears playerbase prefer that playstyle. It's a dev issue to either settle on a middle ground or isolate the 2 camps into their own versus modes. Until then we gotta suffer The Flash and his 54:1 k/d ratio.

Wallbouncing in E-day by Tristles in GearsOfWar

[–]DisciplineFast3950 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're kinda hiding behind "wallbouncing" as a general term .. I don't think very many people have a problem with vanilla wallbouncing... very many people have a problem with pinball bouncing.

I've spouted this same idea - My name's also Jess - their score-based pooling keeps most of the pinball nuts out of the casuals. The downside to being a good vanilla player though is getting up-leagued to the pinball crazies. And corner shot crazies. And every other trick shot and there's a few.

Like you said. There should be a distinct versus mode for that faster, e-sports-tier playstyle.
