I'm on Act 3, game is way better than Gears 4. While it's better though, i'm beginning to feel like it's getting a bit repetitive. Act 2 (imo) started out great, but after horde, after horde, after horde, and going back and forward on the map. I kind of began to lose interest. I feel like pacing is still a problem in this series (3, 4, and Judgement had this problem imo). Act 2 chapter 4 was long as hell. I feel like you can add up all the time for the other chapters in act 2 (1-3, and 5), and it'll JUST beat chapter 4 in duration by a few minutes.

All in all, i give the game so far a 7.9 out of 10. Just shy of a 8. But honestly, i have to give it some extra points. Maybe an 8.5, because on PC this game looks, and plays amazing. The HDR is :banderas:, and i locked mine to 35 frames, with everything but shadows i believe on high. My pc is stronger than OG ps4, but weaker/on par with the pro (waiting until after the releases of the PS5, and next Xbox to upgrade). Controls is very smooth, no latency. The movement/animations is the fastest it's ever been. It doesn't look like 60 frames, but it feels like it, no lag or nothing. I don't know if that's because i'm on a 120hz tv, or because the coalition pulled of some sorcery, but either way i'm amazed. Truly one of the most optimized games i've ever played on PC.

Also, Del is a horrible A.I. teammate and it's frustrating. Never really cared for his character too. Just wanted to state that as well.

Just played escape for the first time :camby: I hate modes like this, zombies on black ops because everybody learns what to do in the first week and just rushes thru them. I have no clue what to do, i just follow my team.

Where's @courtdog aka @PS4? He's been quite quiet as of late.
I was bit by a shark on a fishing trip and lost 3 fingers on my dominant hand. I can squeeze the trigger but I can't hit the bumper. I just throw up the peace sign unintentionally all day, but there's no peace or justice for me anymore :to:

How's the PC experience with this?

Had to turn crossplay off in ranked. The team with the least PC players always losing and them nikkas turn every match into a lancer fest. :heh:

So about that choice :mjpls:
Act 4 spoilers
I wonder who picked JD :mjpls:

Hate to do it to my man Marcus, but the brotha's gotta live this time. :mjcry: JD was probably saying all types of nikkas during his time with Fahz. Even got the bald headed, goatee combo the alt-right militia types like. :mjpls:
