Outside of that, Ninja Theory also has the mysterious Project: Mara , a game it announced back in January. The title goes further to explore the real-world and grounded representation of mental terror based on first hand accounts and in-depth research. Not much is known about the game outside of the promises that it’s going to be an experimental title attempting to showcase a new storytelling medium for gam
To fight a group of enemies, the boom shot is the weapon that will help you in the time of need. The damage rate of the weapon is high, that gives you some time to heal and recover. It’s always important to keep reloading the gun to prepare for the massive explosion. In case of fighting with a group of monsters, Boomshot is the right weapon to cho
This is the main reason why multiplayer groups are likely to play for longer than a single player. The same applies to Gears Tactics . Now, this doesn’t necessarily mean it will not appeal to all multiplayer fanatics. The post-game skirmishes, as well as the intense campaign, will keep you interested for a wh
One of the best aspects of the XCOM games, going back to the first title, is the ability to salvage and examine alien technology. Advancing through the research tree not only unlocks newer weapons, armor, base facilities, and tools, it was also the vehicle through which players advanced the st
Combat ability-wise, Warfare should be taken first to boost Physical damage by a multiplicative amount. Two-Handed will be next as it grants additive damage (of all elements), and as previously mentioned also boosts the critical multiplier. Once those are maxed, consider putting a few points into Scoundrel for even more critical damage, Polymorph for more stat points, and Perseverance to restore ar
Weapons in the XCOM games are odd in that they are important, but also don’t really add anything to the game. They have names that reflect their purpose; Sniper Rifle, Grenade Launcher, and Sword are just a few examples. The weapons in Gears Tactics have names with a little more flare to them, like the Hammer of Dawn weapon that calls down a strike from a satellite. Gears Tactics has fewer weapons, but the weapons have more variety via the game’s modding system. Armor can be modded in Gears Tactics also- unlike in the XCOM ga
For starting stats go with +3 in either Strength or Finesse, +1 Warfare, +1 Scoundrel, and a Civil Ability that fits your character, like Thievery for Fane or Persuasion for Red Prince. Initial skills should include Crippling Blow for strong close-range damage, Battle Stomp to clear out areas and knockdown enemies, and Adrenaline to get bonus AP on your first action. Because the main Knight weapon is two-handed, they will have access to All In, which deals additional damage for 3 AP. If playing a human Knight, use Encourage at the start of a turn before attacks, not after as a means of spending unused AP. The same should be done for elf Knights and Flesh Sacrif
Knights might not be the most tactful profession, but they will easily help the party by rushing to the frontlines, dispatching light infantry, and protecting their weaker allies. With a little more magic support, a Knight will turn into an unstoppable juggern
There is no better time to dust off the old Xbox 360 and replay the original Gears of War than after beating the story of Gears Tactics. Gears Tactics is a prequel to the original, so why not? The original was the one that started it all, so go back and enjoy the nostalgia of the gory third-person shoo
The handiest first Talent is The Pawn (from having that Scoundrel point) which grants free extra movement, though it is mutually exclusive with Executioner. Other great candidates include Living Armor for much needed magical rivellon armor Set bonuses recovery, Hothead for more critical hot chance, Opportunist to prevent enemy movement, and What a Rush to punish enemies that manage to damage health direc
Performance issues are not uncommon in high-octane games, and Gears Tactics is not an exception. Although the game is highly optimized, some players experience stuttering and the infamous GT102 error code problems. The error issues are mainly related to the player’s graphics card. It appears when the card fails to l
If there is one aspect of Gears Tactics that is obviously better than the XCOM games, it’s the boss battles. XCOM doesn’t really have boss battles; there is a final engagement against stronger enemies than those normally encountered, but that’s not really a “boss battle”. Occasionally, players in Gears Tactics will find themselves facing an enormous creature that towers over the battlefield. Defeating these gigantic boss creatures gives players an immediate sense of accomplishment that is sometimes lacking in the XCOM games. These boss battles also really help break up the monotony of fighting the same alien soldiers over and over – which is a problem from which the XCOM games suffer on occas
