Gears 2 is the best story wise. Horde gears 3. Try fucked it up in 5. It's ssoooooo boring. Characters are stuck with whatever they have. I'm stuck with a drop shot. A fucking drop shot. I want a Lancer or some shit. Can't buy any good guns in fabricator. Enemies just rush you rather take cover. Is dumb af.
Honestly same. Gears 3 was the last gritty hard game, gears 4 was to tame and gears 5 is trying to hard in the wrong spots. The choice in 5 ruined the mood.
Again, glad I watched the beginner guide. I had noticed the price hike for fortifications. But assumed it was for all players. Didn't realize it was per player. Now I'll rotate who buys. Thanks again Chaps
Thanks! We've got a few guides in the works (but little drive to actually complete them). But check out some of the G4 guides (on fortifications or skill cards). We put a lot of work into making the stuff look good :p
Is there a better strategy than just building a bunch of fortifications? The biggest challenge for that is getting people to deposit enough energy into the fabricator so the engineer, aka me, can build, upgrade and repair fortifications. Maybe in one of the next videos you could stress the importance of sharing the energy.
Perks are a complete waste of time, if you are a damage character do yourself and everyone else a favour and deposit that energy. Somewhere between wave 20-30 the game will collapse if no one deposits and that extra 15% shotgun dmg you spent 14k upgrading isn't looking so useful anymore.
Prince Andrew I’m starting to notice that myself. I used to think it mattered to up my damage to 30% and health to 30% but I’m noticing other priorities
@Prince Andrew I haven’t been playing 5 for long, but I like the bonus speed perk for Jack, as well as the repair boost perk. Not sure how Jack’s repair efficiency compares to the engineer’s.
@@Shozb0t if you stack your repair speed cards you don’t need the repair speed perks for Jack. Buying perks is a complete waste of money. Save it for fabrications.
Fun Fact! There was a vote for which game mode they should bring back back in gears 4. It was Beast mode or wingman. Wingman won. Some people were confused about why it wasn’t there. That’s because it was brought back as 2v2 gnashers. So basically there was a possibility of beat mode in gears 4.
can't wait til you guys break down jack, he can do so many things. He can be discount scout or engineer or both depending on who is missing. But there is a giant problem i found with jack, since he has a skill tree, repairing can really make it harder to level up especially on higher waves. Especially if you got engineer at start, who built bunch of shit and leaves later. Also jack can't tap, like wtf.
Not related to your video, but something I thought you would like to know. I believe that Oscar will be the next playable character. The other day I was looking thought available banners to craft and I came across the Oscar banner, it matched banners you get when you max out a character in horde and escape. I logged onto my pc to get a screenshot of it, except they removed it. So I have no evidence to back this up, sorry.
One thing I also notice is if your the one That’s killed the enemy and pick up the Energy you get more Energy but if you pick somebody else’s energy you get less for example you’re kill up is 45+ his kill 30+ is something I notice
Are you sure you're not getting it confused with Kaits thing where she drops more for CQB kills? I thought I showed that in the video. It doesn't matter who picks it up.
I don't know exactly what your talking about in terms for perks, they don't reset each wave. If you get ammo capacity for Fahz that stays for the whole game.
Collecting power from the tap. Is there any difference collecting during vs after the wave? One player kept telling me to only collect during the wave and no during break??
Not that I know of...but I'm not sure. I always collect during the scoreboard phase. If you bring up the overhead map, you can press "x" during the scoreboard phase to start collecting. Be sure to close the map once you start holding though - or else everyone will get the "waiting for other players" message
Yeah I try to start collecting when the scoreboard comes up to so u make use of that time as makes more logical sense to me. Just didn’t know if when u collected from the taps made any difference. Love your vids. Looking forward to your maths calculations vids and guides. 👍🏻
I've noticed that when the enemy first dies, the amount of power they drop is higher. The longer you wait to collect power it, the symbol for the power icon on thier body decreases as does the power you receive when you collect. So it is ensitvised that you should be collecting power right after you kill an enemy to get the most amount of power.
100% confident. I was skeptical at first... But give it a try, and get it to level 4. You'll be amazed. I think from now on, my team will not buy any perks and just feed the fab for forge until its level 4. The payoff is absolutely insane!
@@K9emerald if you use this strat, you don't have to run around try to defend te powertaps. Bild a good base with a force, waponlocker stacked with heavy weapons, gl lancer and 1 waponlocker that people can stack for Jack. A jack level 3 get more power if he smeld. If the base is in danger, put your fortifications in red, error. So the enemy can't destroy it😉. This requires a lot of donations to the fab, Perks just upgrade after wave 30 because of the 2x damage.
This has to be gears 4 not 5 because they don't have a engineer class in five they have the mechanic and the robots expert which is the closest to engineers in four. Unless they switched it with an update.
I was just playing it. It is very boring they took away fabricator upgrades, took away the turrets, took away the ability to buy different guns-major problem for me my character is stuck with a drop shot!, all enemies seem to rush you rather take cover. Gears 3 Horde was fine, gears 4 was pretty decent. Gears 5 is a step back.
@@VotePaineJefferson Yeah, everyone should collect energy soon as they can as the value of it drops about 50% after 30 secs. It's best to try and let the scout pick up the boss power that's dropped if possible as they do get about 25% extra for it. Forge and taps should both be important. Jack can't get energy from taps so it's best to have both. As for you thinking taps are better than forge, I don't entirely agree. With max smelting bonus for jack you get 360 power per weapons and 450 power for some of them and 720 power for the heavy weapons. In a wave (when forge is level 4) I can EASILY generate over 5k power by constantly delivering weapons to the forge (even more if you upgrade Jack's speed). This is just advice for you and everyone else. It's perfectly fine if you think taps are better, that's your opinion. I think they're equally important unless there is NO Jack player, then the taps are more important. :)
Gears of war 3 is my favorite of all gears of war game of all time

This video is about Gears 5 lol.

Are GOW5 maps anything like GOW3 maps,that’s what i wanna know that decides if i get it or not
Ok
Again, glad I watched the beginner guide. I had noticed the price hike for fortifications. But assumed it was for all players. Didn't realize it was per player. Now I'll rotate who buys. Thanks again Chaps
Dude your graphs and charts are top tier! So much better than other GoW tubers who just tell you which they prefer to pick
Thanks! We've got a few guides in the works (but little drive to actually complete them). But check out some of the G4 guides (on fortifications or skill cards). We put a lot of work into making the stuff look good :p
Always love the graphs and lists Chaps makes regarding Horde.
Mans doin his due diligence. He ain’t fuckin around and I applaud him

Forge
Julian Santiago forge is expensive tho and it's a pain to use because you have to give up a gun , it's good if you have a Jack tho
James powell. If you invest to level 4 with Jack it's worth the investment fifty fold
Gears 4 horde is the best it's ever been
Power Tap Levels:
Level 1 - 100 cr
Level 2 - 200 cr
Level 3 - 400 cr
Level 4 (max) - 800 cr
More videos about Horde!
Nice vídeo!
Gona make video of each class?
Thnx!
Was going to - even had a few almost complete.
...but then I realized I wasn't enjoying Gears, so I stopped.

Anyone remember beast mode

Dam, it's totally different from gears 4

Fully Charged Games There’s photos of it on the Gears reddit, don’t worry.
Who’s the best Hero character for Solo matches on hard and insane difficulty’s ?
Kait
One thing I also notice is if your the one That’s killed the enemy and pick up the Energy you get more Energy but if you pick somebody else’s energy you get less for example you’re kill up is 45+ his kill 30+ is something I notice
Are you sure you're not getting it confused with Kaits thing where she drops more for CQB kills?
I thought I showed that in the video. It doesn't matter who picks it up.
I’m support class (green) that upgrades the fortifications 🤨. Have times changed ?
When it launched, it was character/hero based. After fan feedback, they updated to be class based (and added way more classes since this video).
Thanks
Good video, I'ma. Gears fan but honestly gears 5 is much more complicated than gears 3 which is what I'm used to
I don't know exactly what your talking about in terms for perks, they don't reset each wave. If you get ammo capacity for Fahz that stays for the whole game.
I need to go re-watch. I usually catch stuff like that, but a typo (or mispeak) may have gotten through. I meant to say resets after each match.
Collecting power from the tap. Is there any difference collecting during vs after the wave? One player kept telling me to only collect during the wave and no during break??

No new fortifications 😥
The Forge is new
@@WhackedMaki2 only usefull for jack dou
Are you sure the forge is worth it? 10k to build. Things might have changed by now. I will have to use it again in another run.
100% confident. I was skeptical at first... But give it a try, and get it to level 4. You'll be amazed.
I think from now on, my team will not buy any perks and just feed the fab for forge until its level 4. The payoff is absolutely insane!
Yes, if you have Jackbot smelting the guns, you don't even need the powertaps
@@TacCom you need to share these tips! Lol I'm gonna do this. Sounds brilliant.
@@K9emerald if you use this strat, you don't have to run around try to defend te powertaps. Bild a good base with a force, waponlocker stacked with heavy weapons, gl lancer and 1 waponlocker that people can stack for Jack. A jack level 3 get more power if he smeld.

GowTac-Com how do you level up the forge
Wait,..
SWARMZERKER!
Smh i didnt kno i could buy weapons with the fabricator i thought only fortifications
In case you haven't seen yet, you can actually buy any weapon there now. This video is rather old. They've changed it to allow the full range now.
so weird how gears 5 horde used to be back in 2019
What’s changed? I’m new to horde
When using the energy generator does it give it to all teammates or just the player?
Power taps, Forges, Pickups, etc.
Those go to ALL players. I don't think there's any way to get energy for just 1 person.
How the fuck do you exit a turret
Depends on your controls scheme - but just press whatever button you used to get on the turret.
GowTac-Com thanks I figured it put
Out*
What the hell, why is this so damn complicated 🤦🏿♂️
Love the new iteration though, felt gears 4 horde was a bit repetitive.
You may think that now. But at launch, things were quite different. It's a much better experience now.
@@TacCom Ah, cool. Didn't play it at launch. Loving the channel!
Played it recently and Baird has been nerfed. Had to move to COD
Almost all of this info is out of date sadly
i liked gears 4 horde a lot better
This has to be gears 4 not 5 because they don't have a engineer class in five they have the mechanic and the robots expert which is the closest to engineers in four. Unless they switched it with an update.
Launch G5 was VERY different than current.
Just started playing, grinded gears 4...5 just has a different feel, not liking it..but still going to play it. It feels boring

Taps > Forge
well the only character that should forge is jack, just like scout should be the only one picking up money
@@UkrGaz No they shouldn't lol. Everyone should pick up energy. The scout isn't getting more energy than you by picking it up.
