Its a great game dont get me wrong but i gave up when your forced to use the heros instead of your custom guys and i didnt give care for the heros so i ended up locking myself out of beating the game. So i gotta redo the entire game
this game sucks i lost intrest halfway through its like a bad xcom knockoff cant keep extra units immediately tossed in the shadow realm 0/10
Négatif parce qu'il manque cruellement de contenu supplémentaire ! Juste une campagne alors qu'ils peuvent tellement faire d'autres modes...
Xbox support is 💩
Poor mans Nu-XCOM with an Gears of War Skin, an linear Story, enforced Hero Characters and no real meta game progression outside of finding Weapon Attachments and Armor Parts most of which do the same, just with higher numbers and Perks for your characters once they level up. The turn based Combat is servicable. It's nothing special nor is it bad; it just works. Has some annoyances like not being able to use the rest of your movement range after spending an AP and not moving the full length or not being able to move the camera while you choose a target for one of your abilities. AI also tend to do quite a few annoying things like spamming certain abilities or spawing right next to your dudes once you hit certain mission triggers, sometimes even being able to immediately attack when they do. Ever wanted to experience what it feels like to be XCOM AI that suffers your overwatch spam? This game will show you. The amount of Missions you do in each Campaign is fixed and there is no catch up mechanic for Recruits outside of just getting new ones which pretty much prevents any form of attachment to your guys. Basically you have your main stories that force you to bring your Heroes along (sometimes forbidding one or two of the three that are in the game), and occassionaly it gives you access to side missions of which you have to do a select number until you unlock the next main story. There is no meta progression; Outside of equipping your Soldiers with better gear and giving them new Skills there are no other unlocks. No Squad Size increases, no global upgrades to equipment, no manufactoring, no research, no bestiary; Nothing. As for the Gear; You better hope you get good RNG to get the Items that actually benefit your characters. The Story is whatever. You're given three Characters only one of which is somewhat interesting and the mission to kill a bad guy. It feels overall very haphazard and would've been better had they just adapted their clear inspiration (that being the FIreaxis XCOM titles) more with not having that many mainstory missions or heroes to begin with. Just random Squaddies you send out on missions over a lengthy Campaign. Presentation is fine. It runs well, looks nice and as for the music it's, well, forgettable. For some reason it also requires an Microsoft Account which can be a bit of a ♥♥♥♥♥ to get to work sometimes. All in all only really something for absolute die hard Gears of War fans who have to have played all of the games, and even then it's just barely something I'd even recommend to those.
wish I didn't wait this long to finally try it out
A really good Gears game! It really adds to the game’s overall universe It’s a great tactical game; the classes, enemies and bosses are really good The only downside I’d mention is that some maps come up several times, and the mandatory side missions sometimes annoyed me, I didn’t really feel like doing one mission after another
90% шанс попасть и ты попадаешь, ура Пробежал вперед и обнаружил врагов? Продолжай ходить, они ждут конца хода, боже, спасибо! Кровь, кишки, мясооо Еще и мультики показывают, красивое
Buen juego de estrategia táctica, la historia pudo explorar mucho más de sus personajes y universo, pero está muy bien por todo lo demás en cuanto a mecánicas.
A solid tactical game overall. The visual design, sound effects, and VFX are all excellent, giving every battle a strong sense of impact. The gameplay is fun, punchy, and satisfying. While it clearly takes inspiration from XCOM, Gears Tactics still manages to stand out with its own distinct style and charm.
