Exactly the same literally 1 for 1... Even the spots we all know from 20+ years playing or the ones UE created all still work lol hard to tell about polish cause gears of war has its own unique BS factors where you could hard aim and shoot someone and not get them down lol so but seems the same as always

Nice to see so many new games I think I've seen one or two people I knew from UE in lobbies but tis 90% new faces so some fairer comp for new people vs. if you just bump into the elite try hards running stacked teams and spawn trap you.


Looks like some new menu features and the HDR settings brightness all new but like overall the guts are 100% UE polished up with cross play

That's great to hear although with all the new players i do wonder if they will have a much easier time to maybe try more skill based matchmaking with the Reloaded game release than say the hardcore only players still carrying on the mantle from before.

Personally i remember when Fortnite came out, i got decent and good and then overtime all the tryhards were everywhere and anywhere making it a lot harder. Even worse when i lost the Back Button attachment with paddles because it makes shooting, building and jumping a lot harder. Things did get slightly better when the No Build mode came out though and there's more modes now too.

Just the nature of gears though like 1 good player can dominate especially fi that person can grab a power weapon or if theres 4 decent playiers working together vs. 1 or 2 good players and two crap players then the team can win really just depends on the maps too.

So you'll still jump in those meat grinder teams where it's just a crap team vs. a good team/ player and take L's but if the beta player base is any indication it won't be like if you fire up UE where its all the same kids who've played since 2006 Gears1 working together to run up stats.

Pretty horrible start to the game. The hit detection I guess cause of cross play is nothing like UE version that was perfectly balanced and smooth. It's really all over the place which probably won't be noticeable to the PC/PS guys who might be touching the series for the first time but its almost as bad as gears2 launch for 360.

the movement also seems laggy compared to UE so hopefully an update can fix it but pretty bad first impression to new people trying it

Also the PS/PC guys don't know how to play the maps so if theres 2 decent even mediocre Xbox long time players on another team you lose your lives in TDM so fast cause of the horrible new players it can hold even the best single players down.
