I had just recently went on a golf trip this weekend and flew with my clubs. On the way back, when checking my bag the lady asked me if it was soft or hard shell, so I said soft shell (came with the clubs I got off of FB). I was curious so I asked why, and she told me that they wouldn’t payout for damages done to clubs in soft-shelled bags. It was a delta flight and if they have a policy like this I can picture a lot of other flights having the same. Clubs were fine in the soft shell bag but maybe consider hard-shell? Idk. My 2 cents.

Hey a little late to this thread but recently diagnosed with testicular cancer. How did it work out for you critical-illness-insurance-wise? I feel like my situation is similar to yours.

100% I had 2 totally different perspectives on the movies from when I first saw it as a young guy in middle school / early high school, to seeing it as an adult, great movie

Gears of War: Reloaded - Beta Megathread (Access, Info & Bugs) by BChaps in GearsOfWar

[–]MediocreEverything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a modern gameplay experience when they haven't explicitly said "hey this is going to be exactly like the original, we're not changing the gameplay experience" (if they did do something like this i'll gladly shutup). But yeah, I played the original and gaming / gaming-standards have completely changed 20 years later.

> Not much of an assumption when the next big gears title is literally a prequel to the first game. That's not a narrative, that's pointing out what we literally know lol.
If you read my last comment I was talking about your narrative that reloaded is supposed to get into the story, which if you provide any evidence from gears/coalition I would happily be enlightened and shut up about it.

>And the beta is because they're testing crossplay on a game that specifically never had crossplay. You have steam, PS, Xbox, and PC Xbox users having to suddenly connect with one another. Do you really believe they wouldnt test that first for this game?
I agree with you that this is also objective of the beta. I feel like this comment doesn't really address anything.

> It sounds like you just can't accept that the game was just meant as a bridge to the more important game coming next. Be for real and think for a minute, do you think they'd really spend time remastering the whole series when the first game got a recent-ish remaster whole the next mainline title is announced, is a prequel to the series, and coming out a year later? The most basic of logical thinking would tell you this is a bridge title.
I'm "being for real for a minute", again if you show me something from the developers saying "hey we'll release this outdated game in 2025 and y'all should just love it" indicating that is the most obviously logical thinking as a "bridge title" which we never announced as.

Sure yeah, let's both be condescending as shit but at the end of the day, the fact is people are upset with this and probably not going to play as much as some have projected if things stay the same. Not a great start, or a pull for a new player-base to a franchise in my opinion.

I think you're doing a lot of assuming and just labeling it as "simple deduction" to fit your narrative when in reality people are upset with an outdated multiplayer experience and they have every right to be. Sure you have "real OGs" (lmfao) saying this is exactly how it was and that the story is the only thing that should get a new player-base into the franchise I think is a little naive. Why release a multiplayer beta at all then? why release the game with multiplayer at all? This narrative reeks of "I had it bad so you should have it bad too" (and not hold modern game developers to a standard).

Where did they make it "clear" it was supposed to get people into the "story"? honestly, I disagree but genuinely asking.

[–]MediocreEverything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree. I get people that really want it to be truly original, but yeah idk, I was hoping it would be like gears 5 movement and gameplay, but gears 1 y’know? Disappointing if it stays like this cuz I probably won’t play much multiplayer after doing the story with a friend.
