Gears of War 4

They are starting to reveal more about the game with the launch date of Oct. 11 drawing closer
they showed a new enemy recently, the robotic DeeBees in a campaign video and again in a multiplayer video
The beta/alpha test didn't impress me that much even though i know it was early development, but this latest video got me a little excited again. the gameplay in MP looks so much smoother and responsive

Ya at this point I'm avoiding any more media for the game.
to avoid spoilers or just don't care?
i need them to sell me more on this. aside from Gears UE and some parts of Gears 3 it's been a fairly disappointing run since the glory days of Gears 1
Lol since GUE and gears 3 its been a disappointing run since gears 1? so you were disappointed in gears 2 and now gears 4 might be a huge disaster?
I know I'm buying 4 and I don't want to spoil it by watching everything about it. It might not be as good as the previous games, but you take that risk with any sequel. This looks like more gears of war awesomeness and Marcus is in it so I want to see what happens.
you read that sentence wrong. and yes i was thoroughly disappointed in Gears 2 and GoW;J was a total mess
I like the campaign in Gears 2 and I liked both the MP and campaign for judgement.
for the Horde fans out there
I guess it's kind of a launch event stream. it's a day before the game releases for the early access crowd
my bad early access is Oct. 7 (still can't edit on the site?)
they also released the achievement list http://www.xboxachievements.com/news/news-25183-Gears-Of-War-4-s-Full-Achievement-List-Has-Been-Revealed.html
I hope they don't tweak the gnasher too much from the beta, first time in many Gears where I feel comfortable with gnasher.
Do you remember doing Horde Nights with the guys from Asylum on Sundays?
That was just before I joined the site, that was a great place in it's prime.
Anyone picking up gears 4 right away? I'm preordering it tonight. I know that the xbone has preloads going on and I think PC does as well.
PC and Xbox One can play together which is great.
I had the last of my trade in $$ at eb games so I paid for gears 4 and return to Arkham... should be waiting for me when I get back from vermont fishing trip
If you want to play co op or horde let me know
Definitely will... because the best part of Gear is multiplayer and horde
I have very fond memories of playing Horde with you, Spectral and the others guys back with Gears of War 2.
Jebus, that was a long while ago now.
@Law212 I'll have it on Friday next week.
was the Gears 2 wow that seems like 2 long ago
I am sure you are right though
me too
Yeah, that was Gears of War 2. That was back in 2009 that we were all really playing it, and we did that for much of the year until Halo 3: ODST came out. Then me, Shadowman, and a few others started doing Friday Night Firefights with that.
I ordered the Ultimate Edition
I was emailed this by Xbox Canada late last week. It's the Prologue from the Campaign, basically the first 20 minutes of gameplay (so obvious spoilers).
Very nice to see a lot of EU content incorporated. Overall though, to me, it looked like more of the same. If that's what you're looking for though, you'll be in for a treat.
They mention cross-play between Xbox One and PC for Co-Op Campaign, but they didn't mention any other modes. Hopefully Horde and Versus is supported.
Rockstar is doing a promotion with codes on the tabs of their Gears-marked cans. Can win some stuff, but the first 4 codes you redeem will unlock some lancer skins for the game.

I'm pretty hyped for this game. I remember how hyped I was when gears 3 came out. I even preordered from 3 different stores (eb, best buy, and futures shop) to get all the preorder stuff as well as the T shirt and gears toque) I Then returned 2 of the copies.
Though since this time I'm just going digital and on PC I wont be doing that.
Another game I'm hyped about is MKX kombat pack 2 coming out on Tuesday!
Yeah, Mortal Kombat XL will be fun! I'm going to wait until Wednesday though, make sure there are no patching issues first.
