Feb 19, 2020Zero innovation. Boring story, pjs and and always the same repetitive mechanics of the previous titles. Just a game with beautiful graphics and no soul.
Please gentlemen of Microsoft, take a humble look at From Software.
I have uninstalled the game after 5 hours of play. Money lost. -

Feb 5, 2020Awfully optimized, there's a lot of performance issues which include fps drops and stuttering. Wallbounce is ruined since bullet magnetism is so notable which makes this game look noob-friendly ruining competitive. Gnasher consistency is nasty and unreliable, Campaign is boring (I didn´t even finish it) and characters are boring too. Gears used to be gold, but the Coalition killed it.

Feb 5, 2020Was never a fan of Gears series, but this one pleasantly surprised me. Not the best game out there but far from worst.

Jan 7, 2020Depois de terminar no xone S fui jogar no pc a campanha a 60fps e que maravilha o jogo fica ainda melhor, o melhor gears já feito e pra mim ensinou a 343 industries como fazer um jogo bom.

Jan 3, 2020One of the best adventures I've played for a very long time.
Interesting dialogs, revealing the world of the game, nice mechanics of research, wonderful design of locations, unusually gameplay situations, well-set battles, good story ... -

Dec 9, 2019I would have enjoyed this game if it wasn't so buggy and broken. Got to the point where it won't load my save anymore in the final act. Very annoying. Your mileage may vary but for me, not being able to finish it means I can't give it any score, let alone a good one.

Nov 30, 2019Don't listen to others review.
I have NO crash, except only one time monitor black'ed out when with playing co-op campaign with friends. my rigs are 9600kf(4.8Ghz) with sapphire 5700xt.
Even playing with supersampling enabled on 1k monitors with 2k resolution, no stuttering at all. Great optimization.
Story and game plays are very enjoyable.
Looking forward next sequel game.. -
Nov 26, 2019Beautiful graphics, enjoyable cover-based shooting mechanics that force you to use the companion robot's abilities, and a co-op campaign.

Nov 8, 2019es un buen juego a mi parecer el modo single player cumple y encontraras bastante rato de diversion en los modos multiplayer si lo adquiriste mediante game pass mucho mejor.

Nov 5, 2019Favorite Thing: I like the Gears world and the sci-fi story.
Least Favorite Thing: The Matriarch fight was a whole lot of one-hit, bullet sponge BS.
Date Completed: 2019-11-05
Playtime: 9h
Enjoyment: 7/10
Recommendation: If you've been following along, yes. If you have no attachment to Gears, probably not. -
Nov 5, 2019Me hizo emocionar con su gran historia, tiroteos dignos de la franquicia, pura diversión, lamentablemente me pasé la campaña con el bug de texturas borrosas, entorpeciendo el disfrute visual.

Nov 3, 2019I enjoyed it. It was much like all the other gears games. Not much different mechanically. But the story was interesting. I'd like to see them finally ditch the 3rd person view and go with a 1st person view to mix things up a bit and try something more refreshing to the series.

Oct 29, 2019"Gears of Opinionated Alt-Chick" is not what fans of the series want. Get woke, go broke. If you want to be successful, you have to cater to the fanbase that brought you the success you had, instead of catering to SJW's who don't even buy your games. There is nothing cringier than being forced to play some feminist savior in a game that used to be about testosterone and war.
-
Oct 26, 2019I finished game a few days ago I love the story its not perfect but its good.The game mechanics are as it's supposed to be in a shooter.its not perfect buts its a good game.You should play it.

Oct 24, 2019The Coalition, thank you for the excellent continuation of the series. The game is good both in graphics and cut-scenes, the plot is interesting to follow, and of course I really liked the shooting - it is simply amazing. The most memorable boss, of course the Matriarch, on high difficulty, he did not let you get bored. We look forward to the next part from you.

Oct 11, 2019O jogo é divertido mas infelizmente a formula já foi vista em muitos outros jogos, até aí tudo bem, mas infelizmente as microtransações fizeram com que o jogo caísse um pouco no meu conceito, terminei a campanha e não tenho interesse em jogar o multiplayer por isso...

Oct 6, 2019it is fun game with nice visuals.. This game is a great treat for Gears of War fans. Lots of shooting and intense action from beginning to the end. There is not much in Gears 5 that we have not seen it in previous Gears of War games. It is good game, just not great. The game is well optimized. it runs close to 60FPS @ 1080p on my Ryzen 3400g with Vega 11 integrated graphics.
-
Oct 5, 2019Simply boring simple game.It's for kids maybe.Super lame characters and meaningless writing.Good optimization.Couldn't finish it because i didn't care about story or even enjoy the gameplay.
-
Oct 4, 2019real power of UE and a good and soft gameplay, best of gears story, nice art. smart battles and ..... but again a short gameplay
-
Oct 2, 2019campaign is a 8/10 and multiplayer is 9/10 lacks playable Character like Baird and Cole super good graphics and gameplay is up to the best ever made in third Person

Sep 29, 2019The game has a good coop campaign and after playing borderlands 3, I can only say that the devs have outdone themselfs in therms of performance. It looks beautiful and it runs awesome. The reason why this is only an 8 is because they hyped the escape mode way too much, for what it actually is.

Sep 23, 2019It was Characters and story were really lacking. I didn't care about the characters and the story was disappointing with poor writing.
Your allies AI was really frustrating at times - I failed missions due to the AI running into enemies and such. I had the objective get stuck a couple of times so I couldn't proceed and had to start back at checkpoint. -
Sep 23, 2019the campaign ist a 9/10 pretty much flaw less real AAA quality, graphics and gameplay is up to the best ever made in 3dr person genre
-
Sep 23, 2019Some technical issues, wait until they fix them to buy it, but the game is super absolutely awesome! It's the best of the series. The story is cool and the mechanics are awesome. But as I said, careful with the bugs it can turn the experience to ****
-
Sep 21, 2019Campaign is amazing. Otherwise this would be a 0/10. Multiplayer is too broken to even go on a rant about it, because the game doesn't deserve the words. Also the game crashes periodically and doesn't keep accurate track of stats.

Sep 16, 2019Gears 5 sports an interesting and engaging campaign with acting and cinematography worthy of its triple-A title. It is also made with impressive levels of optimisation while still being visual appealing. Gears 5 is fun, chaotic, and engaging; I don't see why anyone who likes to play third person cover shooters wouldn't buy this, franchise newcomers and veterans alike.

Sep 15, 2019The single player is good , however I can't say the same for mp as it crashes way too frequent on my gtx 1060 card while playing ranked game, costed me a win on last round as it crashed right before the game score screen and didnt count my win.... Coalition please fix this asap!! untill then just stick to single player and endure its crashes...
-
Sep 15, 2019funnier and a bit improved and better version of gears 4. i liked gears 4 so i will give 8 points. Game is pure action and will be forgotten but the game is great.
-
Sep 14, 2019The PC game only adds to what would be one of 2019's best games. This game looked amazing on the base XB1 and the PC version takes this game and runs 1000miles forward with it. Great game, The campaign is a masterpiece and is up there with the very best. Must play for Gears fans and a great entry to new Gears fans. Looking forward to Gears 6.
-
Sep 14, 2019Good solid shooter with awesome graphics and optimization, not like Blands 3
-
Sep 14, 2019This is my first Gears game. The game looks stunning and runs great (RX580). Story seems OK, shooting mechanics are also OK. Don't think this game is worth $60 but I got it with gamepass so it's a fantastic deal.

Oct 23, 2019Gears 5 plays around with the formula a bit, but it's still at its best when it's just being a solid-ass Gears of War game.

Oct 12, 2019This is an intense blockbuster which delivers its brutal action just as advertised.
