It's probably not good that @InsectJess and I won most of our matches tonight (I even got MVP a few times), and we still feel miserable. Back to Siege tomorrow!

The movement in E-Day is really polarizing, and I'm not really sure how I feel about it. In Campaign & Siege, I feel it works really well. The momentum/inertia really smooth things out and give a weighty feeling that just works so well in Gears. But...I hate it in PvP

I hate the hyper-bouncing in recent Gears games, and actually like the new movement mechanics and cover mechanics in E-Day. It's just that the inertia system makes me feel like I'm driving a boat. The strafe/dances (or lack thereof) and delays are just a pain. It's just not fun.

Solo Insane + Hardcases + Collectables + Side Missions = Complete. Still really enjoying Siege with friends, but maybe it's time to give PvP another shot soon. Did decently before, but wasn't really "feeling it". Maybe it will grow on me...

Scratch that. I usually only have a few hours a week to play, and this just isn't it. Once the novelty of it wears off, it's just not fun anymore. I could spend hours to "get gud", but what's the point if I don't find the mechanics to be fun for Gears PvP?

I keep trying to think of "opinion piece" type videos to do, but whenever I start scripting up notes, it just turns into a rant/complaint. I'm truly enjoying E-Day, so I don't feel it's fair to put out a video that is so "complainy". It doesn't have a lot to be addressed though.

It's funny of the discourse around coins in E-Day has transitioned from: "this is BS, why is there a cap?!?" to: "am I missing something here? This seems really generous!" Its so refreshing to be able to earn almost everything without spending money!

(4) Some larger changes: - Better control schemes - Endless Siege mode - Campaign - New Game + Option I put these (1)-(4) in what I consider to be priority order. These are just things that I feel would be a huge benefit. Again, bugs get priority, but some of these seem doable

It's nice to see TC patching bugs in the game. While I do feel that most bugs should be a priority, I do really hope that we can start to see some updates/adjustments soon (rather than just bug squashing). Here's a few things that I'd really like to see adjusted:

(1) Update Playlist Structure: - Ranked Zone Control (Conquest + Warpath) - Ranked Demolition (Demolition + Demolition Execution) - Social Slayer (TDM + Dodgeball + Guardian?) - Social Objective (Conquest + Demolition) 2 ranked + 2 social - consolidates, but keep variety

Post on the @GearsofWar that I figured I'd share here. Hopefully helps anyone who's annoyed by the crazy discourse right now.

Siege (and campaign) needs to disable the ability to use the more aggressive auto-aim features on Commander and Allfather. I've seen multiple people talk about how easy it is to use Marksman with aim assist and insti-kill things. I can understand it for lower difficulties.

The Gears of War subreddit is a complete mess whenever a new game comes out. This time it's a whole new level though. Over 2,000 mod actions since the game came out...

With E-Day being built from scratch, it's a very impressive game. Campaign was great, Siege is a blast, and the way they're handling unlocks is so refreshing. I'm not totally on-board with all of the new mechanics/momentum, but at least it feels like a fresh Gears experience.

But... It does really feel like it launched too early. A lot of polish and missing features are holding it back. I have hope for the game's future, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little worried.
