THE BETA IS OVER!
Now that the beta is over I figured we could get some of us fellow gears players to talk about the beta! I have a few questions for you all to answer to put some good feedback on!
Here are a few questions,
1.) What did they do good on the beta?
2.) What did they do bad on/ needs to be fixed?
3.) Scale of 1-10, how would you rate it overall?
These are just a few questions to get this topic rolling, if you feel there is more questions or topics to be discussed, feel free to add any in your post!
Now for my opinions on these questions, here it goes.
1.) I think they did a fantastic job making this gears close to original, with a better look. The graphics and most animations on this game are awesome! They also did a great job implementing some things from each gears tbat lots of fans loved, ex: spotting in gow3. Although there are a couple weapons of major dislike in this game (I will be mentioning very soon), for the most part they do a good justice! Overall they did many things right up to the beta and I can't complain a whole lot.
2.) Lets start with the biggest problem, the Gnasher. I don't exactly know when hears started to make bullets curve and bent barrels, but they should most definitely remove that. Why does it suck so bad? Well, it is plain and simply super inconsistent, like a bad relationship. One time you will get a point blank hit marker, the other, a dome from across the map. I'm sure they will tweak this before the release date, hopefully. The second is the Hammer of Dawn, which they should rename the Hammer of Death because when it hit the damn ground it kills everything. This thing is so over powered it's ridiculous. They need to reduce the damage, range, and time it takes to hit the ground, that or change the name of the map from Courtyard to Graveyard. Last point I will hit is some of the animations, the walls are too sticky, running off cover and everything along those lines is too slow and glitched at some parts of the map.
3.) Out of 10 I will give this game a 8, for now.
That's all for me, thank you guys for hopefully reading this and taking the time to also respond! I think this will be beneficial to get feedback from other players and combine ideas to help the creators fix some stuff! I will see you guys in August for the release date!
I will be playing gow3 for the mean time to get my gow game up, if you would like to play feel free to add me! My gamertag is AJAXAY
Take it easy guys,
Josh

That was absolutely golden and I have no idea why.
Cracked me up.
As for this topic, I won't repeat the things that I feel the same about.
However, I really hope the 1-shot active reload downing on the Sniper can be taken out. I understand that it may not be possible, but it's just aggravating to not be able to move while downed & have to sit through someone who goes for a headshot.
Another thing that needs fixing is the amount of downs you get with the boomshot. I remember they reduced the damage way back in 2007, and it seems like they kept it that way. I say, either let me get kills with it or let my victims get away. Downing with explosives seems out-of place haha.

I am just going to post a link to LikeButters thoughts because as much as I dislike the guy (he's a douche played him so much on Gears 1 and 3) he made very good points that I agree with.

Overall though I'd give the beta an 8/10 because of the minor problems it had.

1.) What did they do good on the beta?
I think the gameplay was pretty nice, notice some inconsistency with the shot gun however
2.) What did they do bad on/ needs to be fixed?
Wasn't able to party up in the beta, kinda took away from the experience for me.
Aside from that I think it was pretty solid beta
3.) Scale of 1-10, how would you rate it overall?
I'd say 8,9/10
I like what they are doing with the servers, I have shitty internet and can only play CoD online at certain times with out major lag, however I notice I was able to play gears a lot more often then cod, with little to no lag.

Not a big fan of his, but nice share.
I can also agree with his opinions on fixing things, too.
Really excited for this game.

For the sniper I think if they reduced active damage to 60-75% that'd make it better. That way no one complains about getting downed.
I honestly only active if the other team is pissing me off.

Tbh the gnasher has made Gears what it is. The Gears community is very competitive. Some may not like it but I prefer gnashers over being lanced at from a distance having a stand off for 15 minutes.
