    What Gears 5 did to JD Fenix Is Criminal

    Posted: 06 Mar 2020 05:45 AM PST

    It's also straight up bad writing and just a waste of potential.

    SO let's get this straight:

    TC gets handed the gears franchise, has the common sense to know that relying on delta squad over and over again is just beating a dead horse, so decide to give him a son. Write the character in a likeable way, giving him SOME similarities to marcus, some similarities to his mother, but also alot of differences. They spend ALL of gears 4 on trying to make sure that this character is his own beast and not just a marcus reskin and make it clear he's gonna carry the torch and be the main character....and then Gears 5 happens and for some reason they decided they needed to BUTCHER this character so they could force his girlfriend in his place but ALSO do everything in their power to ruin his because why?

    I get it, gears 5 and Kait's journey works better when it's seen through Kait's eyes but you didn't have to try ruin the character and make him unlikable (which they still failed at IMO) to make Kait the focus of this game. Writers who know what they're doing know that you can have a switch of protagonist for a sequel if need be and not ruin what you'e already established but to me it seems like TC knew they would get some flack for Kait being the focus so they went overboard what they did to JD.

    Also the civilian thing? That was just silly. The explosion moment stood just fine on it's own writing wise as a way to send JD into the depression he goes through over getting someone killed without THAT. Plus the way they wrote it just makes Kait and Del look stupid. They didn't just fire on "civilians" JD gave the order to fire on them because they were throwing fire bombs at the squad what's he supposed to do let the team burn to death? "Guess we'll just take molotovs to the face and all get cooked because these aren't hostiles they're just CIVILIANS that are trying to kill us now." Then for good measure they made sure to gore his character design too. The beard is fine, turning him bald was not, it just looks bad. Then in the WORST written moment in gears history, they turn both Del and JD Fenix...I repeat Fenix as in main character of the main family FENIX into mass effect NPCs where you have to choose who lives and who dies either locking down Kait (who can't carry this series once the ark with her mother is over I mean let's be honest it's the only thing her character has going for her personality wise) as the protagonist for good, or making that choice a waste of coding should they bring JD back as the protagonist (as they should.)

    So I ask again what was the point of making this character? To waste a game on him? To waste the time of people excited for the new fenix era's time? If you were just gonna make a new Fenix, butcher him in the next game, write Marcus in a way where he looks like a bad father who spends all his time coddling Kait and nagging at his son almost every time we see the 2 interact? Outside of the end of the game where you see he genuinely cares you'd damn near think he didn't WANT one in the first place contrary to the lore on the program him and Anya were in based off how hard on JD marcus is, meanwhile when Kait's throwing tantrums there Marcus is to give her a cookie and a juice box.

    Who in the world do they have writing this stuff man? IMO they proved themselves with gears 4 and then did a complete 180 and gave us the worst story in a gears game since Judgement.

    The Masterful Storytelling of Dom

    Posted: 07 Mar 2020 04:11 AM PST

    SPOILERS

    I just finished the original trilogy marathon again for the... I lost count. To begin with I love Doms story. Front start to end. From the novels to how he met Maria, married her, got her pregnant, joined the army. And of course his ten year long search for Maria.

    But something that came to my mind was the way they decided to go with the end of his story. The way it was foreshadowed. Some say it was cheesy, predictable melodrama. But I find it so dramatic, I think it's good writing.

    The emptiness they built up at the end Gears 2 and 'Gears 3 Previously' scene. Dom looking at the picture of his wife totally broken and remaking his tattoo to Maria as an angel.

    The Ashes to Ashes trailer that shows how much Dom is willing to die and has nothing left - ready to accept his fate. And when playing Gears of War the foreshadowing almost gets a bit scary with everything that happens.

    Especially in Act 3 with that Brothers to the End sign. How he says: "Don't wait for me if anything goes wrong." And "My great Idea to come here, Sorry Marcus."

    Dom visiting the Herdes-family grave saying "I'll se all of you one day." Then hanging his cog necklace over the statue, and finally giving his knife to Marcus. Somethings up and you feel it.

    At last the story comes full circle with Mad World - the best way to write out his character. I just love Dom and feel that he somehow saved the franchise.

    Free Skins on Gears Live Stream Shortly

    Posted: 06 Mar 2020 12:02 PM PST

    Pinata skins for various weapons will be available on the live stream shortly. The quests are on there now, but aren't quite claimable yet.

    Pinata skins - The first stream is live! Use u/sanfe360's chrome script to auto redeem!

    Posted: 06 Mar 2020 02:35 PM PST

    I confirm it still works. Use this to have the reward auto claimed just keep the stream open and live your life.

    Original post here by u/sanfe360.

    You can just open Chrome on your computer, and then go to https://live.gearsofwar.com ,

    When the event starts, the rewards tab will appear. Open it, and then press F12, go to the
    "console" tab, and paste this code then press "enter":

    setInterval(function(){ var b = document.querySelector(".icon-cancel-thin"); if (b) { b.click ();} var a = document.querySelector(".styles__ClaimReward-ga76s6-0"); if (a) { a.click (); } }, 60000); 

    This code will try to click on any "claim prize" button every minute. So whenever they make the skins available, it will claim the skin for you, and you can just leave the stream open (with the rewards tab open) without worrying.

    I tested it yesterday and it worked, so i guess it will work with future streams.

    If you close the stream or refresh, you will have to paste the code again.

    Why do bots keep picking up power in horde?

    Posted: 06 Mar 2020 04:11 PM PST

    They can't deposit into the fabricator so there's no reason why a bot should be able to pick up power. This has to be a glitch right? Am I missing something?

    Just an idea my friend and I had for emotes

    Posted: 07 Mar 2020 12:31 AM PST

    When you're bleeding out, we thought it would be cool to be able to activate an emote while you're on your knees, and it would be desperate sounding or kind of a last "fuck you" before you're executed depending on the emote chosen. Idk. Whattaya think?

    Banning system is unfortunate

    Posted: 06 Mar 2020 08:21 PM PST

    I was just banned for 15 hours....because my game keeps crashing for no apparent reason. It's defiantly not my build either, because my pc is very powerful and able to play all games in 4k with no issue.

    Playing through Gears. Currently working through Judgement.

    Posted: 06 Mar 2020 07:52 AM PST

    When I first started up Judgement, I hit the left bumper to see the objective and I kept throwing flipping nades!

    I totally forgot they changed the button layout with Judgement.

    Spawn protection in dodgeball

    Posted: 06 Mar 2020 08:53 AM PST

    Can anyone explain to me why this is a thing? It basically allows someone to spawn and run straight into the enemy and get a free kill to keep the game going. If they didn't spawn so close, it would be fine. I've lost rounds where it was 1v5 due to spawn protected players getting one or two free kills and then running away.
