All I really wanted was the characters, but I'm not paying $20 for them, really hope that we can craft the things we want in the future
El-P says "marked a fuck boy" when he marks enemies I might actually have to buy it
[del]I was okay with the micro-transactions before if it meant free maps, and we can still unlock content slowly, but $20 for a [I]chance[/I] to get the character you want?
Fuck off.
What's the point of even owning a season pass anymore.[/del]
Edit:
Okay, $20 for all of them is better than a chance, but still that price is bonkers.
So I'm playing the GoW series for the first time, starting with 1. I've noticed that the active reload bar length changes every now and then, any particular reason why?

It gets smaller for each consecutive reload in a certain amount of time to make it more of a challenge.

... I bought it
Since active reloads have been brought up, any feel that the boltok's active reload position was moved just slightly from Gears 1-3? It's been really throwing me off.
Man, I actually really like Run the Jewels but it's crazy that they are $20. Considering they release their music for free I was a bit disappointed that there's no way to get them without paying money.
This is also kind of making me realize that as fun as this game is, all the skins are a tad bit lazy. I think this game has some of the laziest character models and skins I've ever seen. Hell, the majority of the characters in multiplayer don't even draw their pistol on their model. None of the Swarm models have it, and only proper COG characters have it.
Ending Spoiler: [sp] Since Marcus was in the pod and told them where the hive was he noted that this was the main hive right? If so, did we kind of just "win" again? Or did he state there were more hives out there? I can't remember. It was strange to think this, because if we just won what was the point of of the Locust necklace?
Is Kait still in danger?[/sp]
One final note, I had trouble relating to any of the characters in this game. Everyone had pretty bad lines, good acting, but there was a lot of eye rolling. Every character seems to act like a teenager still. JD, Del, and Kait don't seem to have much backstory as of yet, and it will probably be rectified in a book or something.
Out of Mike & El-P I have to say I like playing as Mike more.
I mean yeah, El-P does say "fuck boy spotted" but overall I like Mike's voice lines much more.

[QUOTE=Kinky Frog;51298493][sp]He notes that there are more or less hundreds of Locust burial sites, so the Swarm is not quite yet defeated[/sp][/QUOTE]
On that note. [sp] Regarding these sites. I get that they don't want to think about them that much, but wouldn't you think they'd at least leaves some DBs near the sites to monitor them. If not to at least watch for trespassing? Also, I noticed a distinct lack of any Gears at all in the game.
Sam, Cole, and Baird are the only proper gears we see. It's been 25 years, how have they not made any new friends?
Where are Jace, Dizzy, Dizzy's daughters, Clayton Carmine, Alex Brand, or any of the other gears that could have helped Sam?[/sp]
I know it's a longshot, but I wish we can eventually play as some of those other Outsiders namely Carmine he looked cool.

I love the Carmines, but $20? Come on man. So glad I didn't buy the season pass.
What happened to getting like 7 characters and a whole campaign chapter for $15? Why did they make this whole salvage/crafting mechanic for cosmetics and then not use it?
Regretting buying the season pass for this game, I love playing it but the whole monetization model for it is killing it for me.

Confirmed fake
With the Carmine's all but confirmed, I'm really hoping they kept the old dialogue and didn't record new replacements lines using the same script for JD, Kait, and Del like they did with Hoffman and Kim.
Also, anyone want to form a 5-man to get the bodied gnasher skin?

THIS SHIT RUNS IN THE FAMILY
[QUOTE=tman450;51308039]Gary Carmine announcement[/QUOTE]
Interesting that his VA isn't the same as the 3 other Carmines (at least it doesn't sound the same), nice change imo.
Opened 12 10th anniversary packs, no Gary Carmine yet.
I got him third crate
I just got him in my first pack too :v:
Good shit!
Got him in my 13th, now i'm just gunning for the grub killer lancer.
Was Gears 3 versus as much of a gnasher fest as 4? It feels like I had a better time playing that on account of the wall-bouncing color splash gnasher pros blasting me every match.
And I can't seem to win any gnasher duels, either the spread favors the other person, or I just plain miss all my shots.

Not so much, the retro lancer and sawed off we're deliberately made to counter gnashers in close quarters, Rod Ferguson described it as letting people who weren't as skilled with the gnasher getting the same feeling of bodying somebody with it. And the Lancer and Hammerburst we're also balanced a bit differently in Gears 3. Any rifle with active would tear through a gnasher.
But wall-bouncing has been toned down in Gears 4 from Gears 3, I think it's just playing against KB+M instead of controller.
Ah, I figured. I never had a huge issues with those. The lack of weapon variety in this game really hurts, hope we see some of the older weapons return.
I also couldn't care much if they outright got rid of the buzzkill. It isn't really great at all.
Looks like Classic Marcus and RAAM skins tomorrow

Or BigHead mode, but hopefully skins
Classic Delta would be nice to have. I want the old Carmine back too, I used to mostly play as him and Baird.
