    How strong the serans are

    I played GOW: UE, act 4 and went to the Fenix estate where I found Marcus' weight room. His bench had three plates on each end large to small, with the smallest one being 300 Kg which is 660 lbs.

    Anyone else feel like the Escape hives have been getting more difficult past couple weeks?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 08:50 PM PST

    I have multiple high level characters and play at least past elite difficulty every week, but not for the last couple hives. Is it just me? Hives like The Blight and The Line have been a real pain.

    Now that I've finally played Gears 5, I decided to make a commercial for it

    Marcus In Gear’s 5’s Horde is OP if used with the right cards

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 09:44 PM PST

    I've noticed that not many people play as Marcus in Horde, and when they do, they almost never utilize his Living Legend Ultimate- I jump between Marcus, Del and Baird depending on team needs. Instead, the meta is spamming the Lancer's GL as JD, then swapping to another GL in the weapon's locker that they have claimed as their own even though everyone else is scavenging for ammo. But I'm not here to discuss JD's play style. Rather, I'm here to discuss Marcus. For reference, I play on Insane difficulty as I only have him at Lvl 12. Feel free to give me any tips, by the way.

    With my build of Marcus, I can have Living Legend for basically an entire wave, and it takes me about one wave to get his Ult back. On average, I use it maybe 20 times in a full, 50-wave Horde match- that's just under once every other wave.

    I will first discuss how I can use his Ult so many times, or rather, how I recharge it so quickly. First is the skill card Brutal Efficiency. At the current level I have it, it cools down Living Legend by 20 seconds per chainsaw kill. On earlier waves, this is pretty easy. Rejects and Leeches are easy chainsaw kills as they come to you. This does not need to be explained. The second reason is Damage Feedback, the ability that can be purchased in between rounds. At LV 10, this ability yields 30% damage as cool down. I don't know that exact math, but this alone- and without chainsawing any enemies- can usually recharge Living Legend within one wave.

    Now, onto discussion of how Living Legend can last so long. I played with a guy the other day who told me to use the Tri-shot while using Marcus' Ult, as I was playing as Marcus during that match. It was pretty damn effective, but I'm pretty sure now that he had never played as Marcus before because he didn't know that Rifle Feedback recharges the Ult as you're using it- and right now there's no cap as far as I'm concerned. At the current level I have it it, rifle damage recharges Living Legend by 54%. Basically, damage I deal with any assault rifle recharges the Ult and keeps it going. I've done so much damage during waves that at times, the Ult goes on for another thirty seconds even after I stop firing.

    Between this and JD's Meta, I've chosen Marcus because the rest of the team can benefit directly from Living Legend. Now, I'm just waiting get the Band of Brother's card so I can get stimmed during the Ult and remain during for longer, instead of having to take cover every so often.

    What are your thoughts? Is there something else I should try with Marcus?

    Gears of War 3’s Campaign Feels Weird to Me

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 07:16 PM PST

    I'm replaying the games for the first time in eight years. Me and my girlfriend are going through Gears 3 and the campaign feels off? It feels over the top and over dramatic compared to 1 and 2. Every character is constantly cracking jokes and half of them are bad and it seems they aren't taking events around them too seriously. Does anyone else feel like this or ever felt like this? Because it's the first time it's happening to me. The first two games were gritty and grounded and you always had hopelessness trailing not too far behind, 3 feels like it was pumped up with too much testosterone.

    So i posted in this forum during gears 4 time and asked if the Bolter would be a cool character and boom it’s in gears 5 and I missed it! Do you think it will come back?

    Can you search for a specific map to play on?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 08:04 PM PST

    Because, honestly, it's getting pretty frustrating to have "Win a Versus Match on Lift" as a daily challenge and for the map to never even come up on the voting options, and when it FINALLY does, the other jag-offs in the lobby vote for something else.

    Am I the only one hooked on Gears?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 08:27 PM PST

    Since the first gears I've been into it, but Gears 5 is something else to me. It's all I think about at school.

    Ranked system is still complete garbage. +6 for wins -200 for losses at Diamond 3.

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 03:32 PM PST

    They skewed it from individual to game result way too hard. How difficult is it to have a competent rank system. Shits wild

    What does the forge and other equipment do?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 08:31 PM PST

    I recently started Gears 5, just a few days ago. I'm already level 47 and horde is my favorite mode but I'm confused on the fabricator equipment. I play as Emile a lot do I just place turrets but what do the other stuff do??

    Go for Guardian masters

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 07:54 PM PST

    I'm in diamond 3 99% and I've been going up and down that general area, solo play isn't going to cut it and I want to try for masters before the operation ends. Does anyone want to squad up to try for masters?

    Gnasher Shotgun

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 09:00 PM PST

    Is the Gnasher going to stay like this from now on or do you think they will revert it back to the original? I was okay with teammates running in and dying but not worry about it because i know I would be able to clear the room. I feel so bad at the game now, knowing that it's not me but the gun. 70-79% in one hit but I get one tapped? If it was Gears OF WAR 1, 2, 3 OR 4 it would have killed them but Gears 5? No, it says that I just tapped them for 75%. TC has just ruined the story for me. First TC takes away my guns, then my 2 shotgun shells as well with my actives, and make my second favorite gun (gnasher) a P.O.S that can't get the job done like it used to. I would love to hear that I'm not alone. Is this how TC treats veteran player? Changing the game so much that it feels like a knockoff? I hated gears of war 4 at launch but loved it a month later. Gears 5? One month later? Na, still hate it. I honestly just want to know how everybody else feels about this. Not from new players but from the people that started from the beginning when Gears of war 1 came out.
