This DLC actually came out last month, but was very under the radar. The campaign is short and sweet, about 3 hours. But never feels like there's any filler. It's an especially good deal since it's on Game Pass, along with Gears 5. If you get a chance to check it out, I highly recommend it.
My favorite character would have to be Keegan because of who his voice actor is. If you don’t know he’s the same guy who voiced Lee Everett from the walking dead tell tale game
Evolution on that planet needs to calm its tits. The Locust, Imulsion, the Swarm, they were bad enough, but the Wacky-Bird? A giant green hummingbird-octopus with two tongues, multiple wings, split jaw (I think, hard to tell), which can fly, burrow, spit acid, AND let off hallucinogenic farts. Australia on a high-octane acid trip.
16:30 I think that is why I like about the new trio. They give respect to the older characters compared to the main trio. Seeing Kegan do that, elevated my appreciation toward the character.
Fun Fact: Originally Cole’s Daughter Hana was going to be originally in the actual gears 5 campaign at some point of the game but she was removed from the campaign because they were changing a bit of the plot of the story and instead had Hana in the Hivebuster campaign
I remember when this game came out me and one of my best friends named dirt this puker dude we would play this game until the sun would come up online.. he got to make it till they came out with the second game and then his parents kicked him out he was sleeping in an abandoned house and then somebody set it on fire,he never made it out.I never went to the funeral cuz the last time we hung out we played gears of war II and then went to di a punk show and partied it's good times so that's way I'm going to remember it because it's gears of War.... A brother is never forgotten or lost he's right there in the game
Really? He was pretty easy to me, than again I’ve fought him in horde several times before I even played this DLC. I was wondering where that random bird came from...
Love this dlc a lot. Brash brigade DLC or a book would be so awesome! Taking part on these hunts. Going into the deepest corners of sera to hunt these locust remnants. Also that means some locust can still be chilling. Cause how do you decide that you got them all. Be cool if we got a scene like the bridge scene from gears 3 in gears 6. Where there’s small pockets of locust fighting both the swarm and cog :3
Yes yes yes more of old school than new Be awesome if they had a game about E-day a bunch of random new characters and squads that way you don't know who makes it and who doesn't
Something I fantasized about was the Theron Guard Jermad took a leadership role of the Locust Remnants. It would be fulfilling RAAM's praise to Jermad from the comic.
I've been extremely disappointed with Gears 4 and 5 but this DLC is actually pretty good-looking! I'd say the only major complaint I have with it is the idea of "Locust surviving the end of Gears of War 3"
Well the device that took out the locust and lambent never really worked and only made the locust go into hibernation and having all the crystal shit on their body and wake up 25 years later and being renamed the swarm and having a new queen which is Queen Reyna and not Myrrah again since Marcus killed her
@@thegamerman1097 Not to mention that the Imulsion Countermeasure weapon severely fucked up Sera's ecosystem and giving us such delightful weather phenomena like Windflares.
@@Freelancer837 I dont know, in the end of Gears 3, professor Adam Fenix did hint that it wont kill the locust, just "harm" them. and in the way he saying did mean that he always mean to save them as his responsible as a scientist and the counter-measure was never a weapon to kill locust entirely. And the origin of Queen Myrrah and the Locust was in the dark even at the end of Gears 3. So I think they did intended for Gears 4 and so on.
@@sylas9762 Yeah, he meant to save them, but if it wasn't meant to kill all of them, I don't get why he talked so much about hwo he regretted how he WASN'T able to save the Locust. I mean, he did end up saving the Locust with it. And even past that, if the Locust are still alive and the Lambent are gone, at the very least, once they've got the Queen reincarnated basically, I don't get why they're even fighting people. Queen Myrah didn't care to actually wipe out Humanity, she only was taking the surface and killing Humans because the Lambent took the Hollows and such to where they had to run from them. If there's nothing stopping them now, why are they still killing all the Humans?
It's not about some moody emotional character who no one ever wanted to play as and her back story in an open world where it should be a nice clean linear playthrough. It's about a rough and tough big stron man and his squad going in to do nothing but kill grubs. Thats all. And who would've thought. It works. It's the charm of the first 3. Unwinnable odds and a small squad in a tight clean linear playthrough.
This is honestly what the main game should have been. Real tension,moment to moment gameplay,no tedious open world with tedious side quests,characters who don't put me to sleep or make me want to punch the screen.
@@LukeSkywalker-fm1dc no that was Gideon Emery this is Trevor Devall who is probably best known for voicing rocket raccoon in the guardians of the galaxy cartoon on disney
Over how inconsistent it is story and lore wise to the original trilogy? Keegan was stationed in Azura and says he saw no combat... Brother, half of the Onyx Guard I saw stationed there in 3 were fucking corpses gibbed on the floor.
@@endworldkrawky600 to be fair, the lore of Onyx is pretty inconsistent to say the least. They are "elite of the eiltes" but they got bodied everytime they're on screen.
Just finished playing the entire Gears anthology (1-5, Judgement, including Raam's Shadow) on the Series X. Never played Hivebusters, wasn't really keen on paying the USD20 price tag, in Singapore its SGD30. The next day, just randomly researching the game, the price dropped 50%. Oh yeah, bought it immediately
You know, I think the escape trailer for the multiplayer mode this story is based on would have really tied the whole story to an explosive finish. Other than that, bang up execution of the story as always GLP team!
This is the Best storyline since 1. Cast,everything hit by a longshot.They need their own game besides the comics whoevers incharge keep this story going.._ p.s. When Mac says " HOW lONG IS THIS TuBe!!!?? " Thats what she said!!!!!!!
Best Campaign since the original trilogy, Raam’s Shadow & Judgment. Not Gears 4 or 5 though. Gears 5 felt too much like a teenage angst film. “This isn’t about you, it’s about me!” So cringe, didn’t even want to replay it.
Never knew of this game. Except for some skin shader issues, and characters' feet occasionally "moon-walking", this looks almost like AAA material. It's a lotta gorgeous (if a bit over-the-top) *_FUN!_*

I thought his voice sound familiar

I knew I heard that voice before, but I couldn't match it to anything. Thanks for that.
That's why it's so familiar!
I guess that makes lahni his sweet p and mac his duck 😅
Not bad for the DLC. This group can be more and I hope they do make a comeback.
Agreed
You can really see how Bairds genius rubs on Cole to a point where he has a genius for a kid
In the comics his wife was very book smart which is why she tried to keep her away from sports and the CoG
thought baird would have the genius daughter, seeing that he's the genius scientist
@@craftysmithkeith3653I don't think he wants a son/daughter at all, he doesn't wanna share the Sam

Damn bruh
Explains why the serans(humans native to sera) are so big, buff, and out of their goddamned minds when it comes to violence!
@@chickyismycat that sounds plausible actually 🤔 I’ll look look deeper into the lore for confirmation! Now you got me thinking! ;)
Not to mention the fucking riftworm and the little rockworms from gears of war 2 💀💀💀

not going to lie the main characters like Kat and Del were too much like spoiled emotional teenage brats.

yes because the ending in that main campaign is shit

Love the environment in the beginning, So different than what we’re used to
I like Mac's Scottish accent
Thought he was Irish
Pretty sure it's Irish. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
Not gonna lie, the Wakatuu put up a good fight. Probably one of the best I’ve had in Gears

How the hell is this better than the entire gears 5 main campaign????
It doesn't have insufferable characters or a tedious open world. I just hate how the game doesn't place you at the point you last left off.

They learned from their mistakes
It's because they have to remodel James character design.
Likable characters

It's 12 August 2022, and the price dropped 50%. You have 11 days left. Go buy this now!
Half expected Mac to say "Blazko" for some reason lol
Same voice actor as Fergus Reid from Wolfenstein, right?
@@LukeSkywalker-fm1dc I think so
@@LukeSkywalker-fm1dc He definitely was Torvin in Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor. An absolute favorite for me as a voiceover artist.

How tight of the creators to extend the gameplay.
Okay kicked out from the plane at the beginning as a part of comedy. We are off to a good start XD
And the ending just love it
I guarantee they make a gears of War 6 that the hive buster crew is going to be in the main campaign for sure
that ending was SUUUPERRB got me hyped up
I really do enjoy the movies. This universe would work well with an established generic miniature skirmish system.
that bird can burrow and fly.. some scary shit
A true apex predator.
Always happy to hear Dave Fennoy's voice (if that's him).
Is it just me? Or the music from the some sort of ancient place they went sounds like Halo's main Theme?
Still better then the main story
Hello. And happy new year (btw next week, i'll be busy with some exams, but i'll be back soon).
Happy New Year and good luck on your exams brotha!

Is it just me or does Hoffman sound different and look a bit younger?
4k is legendary but what about 8k 👀
lol Would blow up my pc to play in 8k
This video came out on my brithday! Yay me.
all i can say about that opening: HOLY FUCK
This game ALWAYS puts a smile on my face!
This channel is legendary
If I was colonel Hoffman you give the hivebusters weapons like retro lancer, lancer Mk2, boltok, hammerburst 1 ect
This dlc actually lets me know they actually can make a good story with good characters
thank you for the videos. a real blessing
GoW loading zones are 2nd to the Gnasher in annoyances.
Using the the lance with the chainsaw is a lot better.
What a great Opening
I watch your videos for hours and be like no pick up gun and kill the zombie lol
Was the pilot that got wasted was a Carmine?
No
Yeesh no and i hope she wasn't,too many Carmines dyijg
Got to be honest if they've got no contact with the outside at the beginning how the hell is he calling in for resupply drops
This was a fun DLC, they really nailed it here,
Do you guys think they're alive?
They are, this game is a prequel to the comics, where they are alive and well.
Gone the days of gears of war that we know and love, nowadays it's all about graphics resolution and fps.
37:36😂😂😂
freaking DLC was better than the main campaign. Gears 6 starring this crew.
Come on man GL is default weapon for Keegan and you were using hammerburst?
I hate hammerburst
ending is the best art of it
Hope we see this group again in gears 6.
It'd being quite different from the Gear Of War before even the players.
is it really all? now we dont know if the plan was a sucess...
It was.

Did you not see the e-day trailer?
@MiniMinecon2006 I'm not viewing that as Gears 6, like in excited for it no doubt, but it's not the next Chronological Sequel.
Hey, major howl
In an alternate universe with no plot armor, they underestimate the snatchers and end up unconscious in cocoons and fail.
