Gears Tactics: The 10 Biggest Fixes The Game Needs

Any downed enemy can be executed in Gears Tactics . And this doesn't just give an appealing animation, it also rewards every soldier in the team with one AP ( Except for the executor). This essentially means more shooting, more moving, more grenades, more over-watch and more abilities. Also, grounding several enemies allows a player to bind executions, giving more bonus action points. Now, although there is a reward for killings, they are usually risky for the individual carrying them out as it exposes them. So be cauti


While Gears has never relied too heavily on complex characters or deep storylines, the squad of Tactics is still disappointing. They act like stock muscle-heads, but in a less fun way than the classic franchise t


Very demoralizing, right? So check ammo from time to time just to be sure. While snipers can easily fire and reload during the action and others have battling gear that enhances ammo; For the rest of the characters make sure reloading is done regularly. If it comes to a point where there is no other choice, do not forget grenades or pist


Speaking of bullet penetration, keep in mind it’s a double-edged sword. Grenades can damage friendly units if they’re too close to the point of impact, but so can every other attack, a fact players might learn the hard way if you have a unit on overwatch and they hit one of your soldiers who’s behind a moving en


On the flip side though, enemies can do the same. If one of the characters falls down one of these holes, they'll be lost for good, or players will have to reload a previous checkpoint if it’s a main character . There are definite benefits for getting close to the holes, and for keeping some dista


The player can spend tokens to reset those skill points if they don’t like how a soldier is specced. Or, they can just dismiss the soldier outright to save the reset tokens and open up a recruitment s


Though it's certainly a breath of fresh air for the third-person shooter Gears of War series, in terms of turn-based tactics, Gears Tactics doesn't innovate. While it may be a neat diversion for those who don't have much experience with the genre, it really doesn't break much ground, and it would have bee nice to see a more unique take on these newly top-down gameplay scenar


As expected, Turn 10 is hard at work on the next generation version of the popular Forza Motorsport series. Simply titled Forza Motorsport , the new trailer shown at the Games Showcase highlights the work that the studio has put into the new game. Turn 10 has already stated that its developers are putting the new tech to work for this latest entry in order to make the most realistic driving experience ever for the ser


At the July 23 showcase, Double Fine revealed it had again partnered with Jack Black, showing a scene where Black sings during a really trippy segment of gameplay. While it was nice seeing the game being shown off again, the studio also dropped some unfortunate news by confirming the game suffered another delay, this time into 2

Class customization is satisfactory. There are five classes, each featuring four branches of subclasses. I found the amount of skill-tree variety to be just right – nothing overly complex nor dumbed-down. The selection of weapon mods and armor perks brought me the experience I just about expected. You can build each of your units to be adaptable and well-rounded or have them specialize. I personally enjoyed building up Cole Train as a beefy tank and Mikayla as a critical hit-machine, for exam


This game doesn’t have a broader strategy layer like X-COM does. Instead, the main story is broken up into side missions. These side missions won’t register much in the game’s first act. In the second and third act, however, a gamer will often have to complete two or even three side-missions in a row before moving on to the next chap


One good example, according to players, comes as a result of closing emergency holes using grenades. The game freezes and crashes in some cases. To avoid this, players have come with weird solutions like not touching anything for a few seconds when it starts hang


Sometimes someone is just going to have bad luck, but always make sure the units are spread out. When flanking enemy units, make sure there aren't any other soldiers in a position who can hit the player just as easily as the en


Executions in gears of war e day Tactics isn’t just there as a callback to previous games, it has a point. When committing an execution on a badly injured enemy, every soldier in the squad will gain one extra action point. This is crucial later in the game when the difficulty starts ramping


Performance issues are not uncommon in high-octane games, and Gears Tactics is not an exception. Although the game is highly optimized, some players experience stuttering and the infamous GT102 error code problems. The error issues are mainly related to the player's graphics card. It appears when the card fails to l
