Gears Tactics Reviews

a loop of 4 types of mission + bad skill tree and characters system

The game isn't terrible but nothing much to see here to be honest. Pro's -Fans of Gears Of War might like this. - The sound of the game is pretty good. - Voice acting is half descent. Cons - The combat is allright but feels a bit lackluster to be honest. The combat feels very unabalanced aswell. Even years after release and on lower difficulties. - Story is extremely forgetable. - The game feels extremely repetitive. Every mission feels like a chore and you're doing the same thing over and over and over. Conclusion: Fans of the Gears franchise might be into it. But if you want a similar game to this get XCOM. Its a hundred times better. This game feels like a boring lackluster clone of XCOM.

Game starts off good however by half way the game is repeating the same levels and tasks which all gets boring. Upgrades are a frustrating waste of time where you will swapping equipment for no noticeable benefits. Got to the final boss and hit with a bug which freezes the game. Common issue that the devs won't fix and no matter how many attempts at restarting or going back to checkpoint the game won't progress past that point.

A smooth, fun TRPG that's mechanically like a cross between WH40K: Chaos Gate and XCOM 2.

Run tactics game. Cool story. Think Xcom or Midnight suns

A fantastic round based strategy game. Graphics and sounds are excellent, lots of skill variety to choose from and to experiment with, interesting maps, enemies and bosses. Great atmosphere with fitting dialogues overall. Only two points that draw the experience down a bit: First, after a while, the missions get quite repetitive and many of them feel like filler that draw out the main story missions unnecessarily. Second, on the highest difficulty, the above mentioned skill variety is just not feasible any more. For each class there is exact one tech tree that has to be followed, leaving the rest of it (and therefore: whole mechanics) just inviable, as otherwise you will not have the skillset and firepower to beat the maps.

Solid game. I enjoyed the story and the top notch presentation. The mechanics and UI/UX are easy to pick up. Well worth your time if you like (Xcom) turn based tactics.

Solid turn based strategy game with all the flair and aesthetics we love from Gears. Graphical presentation is pretty good, but a shame you can't freely control the camera to appreciate it properly.

Ignore the Mostly Positive, this game rocks. The most aggressive tactics game I have ever played. If you like Gears, even if you hate turn based, this is pretty great. It is occasionally a tiny tiny bit buggy but never game breakingly so. This deserves a lot more love. Seriously, I have never played a more accessible tactics game, and one which has this much "it is so over" and "we are so back": in the same turn.

[h1]Strategy Gears?[/h1] Now as someone who absolutely loves Gears of war and strategy the idea of this game always amazed me, and i thought that this could have been something really special! and even tho i do love some of the animations, graphics and even gameplay it just don't feel the best, it feels very forced and rather then having a super ultra strict story i wish it was more like xcom as in get people, build on a lair or something like that, then find research and new ways to destroy the enemy, as here its sadly feels like your forced to always use the main characters, and once you have done the strict story that's kinda that, "almost" no replay value and i bet some people might love that and that's okay i just always thought this game had the potential to be something really fun so i sadly can't recommend this unless you are a hardcore Gears fan then i bet you still can get some fun out of it
