At LEAST wait for it to go one sale- this is not a $60 USD game by any stretch.Gears Tactics is set 12 years before the first Gears of War. Do that, and you pretty much have gears tactics. Take Xcom, give it some streamlined changes, and make it more grindy and more focused on the action and less on the story. I saw a review on here where someone basically called it a mobile game, and that's pretty close. The game isn't explicitly terrible, but my initial thoughts ranged initially from disappointment to frustration as I found the game just wasn't worth all the frustration I had with it. No between mission content: games is purely about Main missions and side missions you get a big ass mobile transport in the beginning and it is never revisited. Very simple (to a fault) customization system, and lack of variation Grindy, repetitive missions and lack of variation on enemies A more risk-reward loot system for weapon mods rather than sheer luck A 90% chance actually feels like a 90% chance to hit Very well optimized- I've encountered very few bugs while playing Innovative changes to existing mechanics like overwatch and consumables While Tactics adds a lot of quality of life changes some Xcom players may enjoy seeing (such as multiple shots on overwatch, cool-downs on things like grenades, etc), this is kind of like a pretty but very dumbed down version of Xcom. I don't think you'll be disappointed.Īs someone who has put a lot of time into Xcom and Xcom 2, I was excited for a new take on that style of turn based shooting genre. Get it on sale if you like a XCOM or Phoenix Point, or even if you like Gears and want to broaden your horizons a little. Tickers are a genuine threat in this game as opposed to the shooters. However there is an argument to be had that the bosses might be too easy without these added swarms. It's not that the bosses are hard, it's just that mobs spawn in during the boss fight, forcing you to deal with them, which just creates artificial length. The Boss fights however, I feel, take far too long. The story is alright, some people don't like it, I personally think it's not bad very middle of the line, if you're not a Gears lore fan, it might be somewhat forgettable. The gameplay is satisfying with all the sound effects and animations that we've grown to love over the years since 2006. (Use helmets and long t-shirts to sorta overcome this). There is little to no character customisation though, unlike XCOM you can't change the gender or race of the characters you recruit, so making accurate (somewhat) looking versions of your friends can be difficult. The armour customisation is phenomenal, you can make some really badass looking gears with the different colour and decal scemes. Being able to redeem action points through executions also adds another layer of tactic to the game. You get a bit more freedom in Gears Tactics I feel, in terms of positioning and action points. A lot of negative reviews come from people complaining about needing an Xbox account, it's 2021, multiple platforms are needed for both TV and Games and even music now, time to get over it.Īs for Gears Tactics, it's like XCOM and it isn't.
