5 Things That Need to Improve for the Next Gears of War Game

This is what Black Tusk Studios and Microsoft need to do to fix the Gears of War series, one that has had its ups and downs.

The dark atmosphere of Gears 1
The emotional story elements of Gears 2
The Multiplayer of Gear 3

And Profit...

I want the campaign to feel like just like one in terms of atmosphere and tension. Bring that back and its a definite day 1.

Apparently they said it was going back to its darker roots and theres a very ambitious team working on it, they are all fans and really love the game. I agree gears 3 multiplayer was amazing, I just cant wait to see some footage of this game.

I still remember how in the space of what felt like a couple of minutes Tai committed suicide and Ben Carmine died. Only for Dom to finally find Maria in that state and have to put her out of her misery. Sad stuff.

@Mikefizzled,

Exactly! Those story moments were fantastic and moved the games. Those are a few reasons it made me cringe when people lied saying tell Gears story wasn't good:ridiculous!

Gears need to continue doing what they're doing:
Campaign Co-op
Splitscreen Campaign Co-op
2-4 Online Campaign Co-op
Horde Mode
Multiplayer
Bring the Characters back
Hilarious Dialog

Wants:
Put Gears 1- Judgment games on the XBOX ONE.

Who wants toast? and Cole train runs on whole grain, baby!
Whilst they look wrong without all caps the last time I did I got a warning from a mod...

"I want the campaign to feel like just like one in terms of atmosphere and tension. Bring that back and its a definite day 1."

This is where Gears suffered after the first game. The first game had it, the second kinda tried to hammer emtion in the game (and mostly failed imo) and the third game just went crazy and lost the plot (literally).

Focus on a darker atmosphere with a new cast that I can actually care about.

How ironic is it that the character I cared most about was the chap with the helmet who barely talks and gets sniped in the first game (forgot his name).

[Gazondaily]

Ah cheers Miyamoto. That's the one. Good ol' Carmine. Reminds me of me; clumsy and always the first to get knocked out!

[DarkOcelet]

I doubt the cast will change much. I honestly would want Cole Train back. The guy is amazing.

[spicelicka]

100% agree!!

The atmosphere in Gears 1 was brilliant. 2 had the best story comparatively and definitely the craziest boss battles. And 3 had the best gameplay and multiplayer. Also gears 3 had great pacing, some of the missions were amazing like that tower defense mission, was probably one of my favourites.

It would be perfect if they could mix the best of all 3 together.

[Joda]

Part 1&2 were awesome. Part 3 was one giant mouth fart just like uncharted 3. Part 2 had us thinking the queen was Marcus' long lost mom and the locust were a lab experiment gone apeshit in that lab in with niles...part 3 did a total 180 and made the locusts and the queen an ancient civilization. Should've stuck with gears 2 story arc.

[urwifeminder]

Never played judgement seems like that was a good call enjoyed all three other games though , massive horde mode would be sweet.

[Jdoki]

I only played 1 and 2 but I enjoyed them.

For me the one thing I'd like to see improved is the AI. There were so many moments where the otherwise fantastic action was slightly marred by stupid AI.

I definitely preferred the atmosphere of Gears 1, and wasn't such a fan of Gears 2. So I hope they get the story telling and tone right.

Don't come out

[EvilWay]

Oh where do I begin....

This is my favorite series of all time but it needs major fix when it comes to the multiplayer

- balanced weapons
- no sponge characters
- dedicated servers
- 60fps
- balanced hit boxes
- slower movement than 3 (in between 2 and 3)
- no more power weapons if they are keeping the same weapons
- keep Marcus, Anya, Baird, Cole (there is a lot you can branch off of their stories I will briefly describe below)
- change wall bouncing. It is ridiculous in Gow3 how fast you can move with it I don't think you should be able to do anymore than you can in gow1, it wasn't supposed to be a tactic just a quick way to get to cover
- amazing story
- Horde no overrun garbage
- keep the original trademark game modes (Execution, Annex, wingman) stop splitting up the community by having 10 damn game modes. Also TDM destroyed execution in Gow 3 get rid of it imo don't cater to others

My story idea

Have the story start 10 years or so after GoW 3 and have another E day basically with the Locust Queen at the head of the attack along with General Raam's brother or something to that affect leading the charge. Make the Locust either another species or just vastly improved locust with new badass armor and strength (Like some Cod Exo strength). Have the Delta squad come back together for what they hope is one last journey but maybe spin it off into another trilogy

If they go with a whole new story I am okay with that as well just a thought that they probably won't listen to :(

Oh forgot to add Coop Campaign is a must

[iistuii]

My fav all time game series. I was thinking of getting a used Gears 3 to play Horde mode again on my old 360 as I've yet to have anything close to the fun I had on that mode on my next gen consoles. I'm wondering if it's servers are still running...

[gnashedout]

Needs to go back to its roots. Gow1 set the bar. But gow3s multiplayer Was the best if u ask me. Bring back all Characters and make some custom options for multiplayer.

Also evilway...u know the queen is dead right?

[gnashedout]

And don't ever mention or compare cod when ur talking about gow...such a insult

[nowitzki2004]

Comparing any game to COD besides Halo is an insult

[nowitzki2004]

I dont want the campaign to be 1 big horde mode like Judgement was

[captainexplosion]

Overrun is my favorite online mode ever. I want more Overrun and some refinement to the formula. For example, more beasts and stuff to buy when you are a cog too. I also want a more refined version of Horde.
