Heavies exist to deal tons of damage. Thanks to their wide field of overwatch fire, they can carry plenty of ammunition. Later on in the game, they can develop the Ultra Shot ability, which allows them to continuously fire on an enemy until the enemy d
Unfortunately, this is where Tactics becomes a bit dull. The recruiting system and side characters are mostly forgettable. The tactical variety isn’t the largest either, leaving the player with a handful of options. It isn’t dry by any means, yet after the first 15 hours of the roughly 25-hour campaign, you essentially get the gist of it. This would’ve been negligible in the wake of diverse mission designs, but sadly – this isn’t the c
Emergency holes are subterranean pits that continuously spawn enemies until they are closed. However, the player typically has to wait for a wave of Locusts to emerge from these e-holes before they can seal
Gears Tactics has polished, stable gameplay. Nothing in the spinoff is going to make your head explode – though you will be exploding plenty of Locust heads. And that’s part of the fun, all things considered. Combat has a respectable amount of variance, but you can pretty much bulldoze your way through the Intermediate campaign like a bull in a china shop. Loading all your units up with Fragmentation Grenades and tossing them off as often as possible is an extremely viable strategy. Flanks are important, yes, and the Scout class can cloak, sure – but you really can explode, chainsaw, and Bayonet Charge your way to victory in most ca
Along with the graphics come crisp animations that your team performs in the midst of combat. The movements and special moves, such as executions, make the combat cinematic. Plus, the entire story is delivered through beautiful cutsce
The fainter the white line is, the lower the soldier’s shot percentage will be. If a dotted line appears, it means that the shot has, at most, a 40% chance of hitting. If a perpendicular crosshatch appears, there could be an obstruction; this might cause the shot to hit another object or even a squadmate. This information should help the player become more accurate, particularly when dealing with tough enem
The game even gives players the gear from fallen soldiers back, so they'll be able to give the replacement soldier the dead soldier’s great armor or weapons straight away. This only works for random recruits though, letting one of the main characters die in battle will result in a game o
Here’s a tip: if taking on a tough boss, injure all the weaker enemies first, but don’t kill them yet. When their health is sufficiently whittled down, unleash a string of executions at once to give a huge boost in action points that can be used on the b
Gears Tactics is the first game in the Gears of War franchise that isn’t a third-person shooter. And for a spin-off, it plays remarkably well. The game is a turn-based strategy where the player controls a group of soldiers who take on the series’ infamous aliens. The game hurls tons of enemies at the player, but it also provides plenty of powerful weapons to take them down w
Sending troops to execute downed enemies not only provides a nice visceral animation to satisfy a player's bloodlust, but it also fires up your team, giving squad-mates more action points, which are required to perform, well, actions. Stomping a locust's head into the ground just might be the tactical move you need to win a large bat

So look out before making a move and locate spots that are ideal sliding a bit to cover some distance. Even a small change can make a difference allowing a player to hit more enemies or spare some action points for Overwa
The number of troop types and the number of abilities that come with them make every turn feel like a game of Risk sponsored by an energy drink. Using stronger weapons, equipment, and even special moves can lead to some chains of kills that are more satisfying than anything achievable in traditional Gears shoot
