「Gears Tactics Review」の版間の差分

<br>A lot is borrowed in Gears Tactics , but that's not a bad thing by any stretch of the mind. Five classes, Support, Vanguard, Heavy, Scout, Sniper, provide a wealth of tactical options and synergy opportunities against a sometimes insurmountable foe, and it feels like XCOM with a few gritty Gears of War twists. Cover is the basis of the mainline series, and that's equally true in this ambitious spinoff , with some added destructibility of certain weaker objects like boxes and sandbags. It may offer few innovations, but those that it does are thanks to is unique source material. Locust Drones can be downed and revived just like friendlies, emergence holes not cleared out with grenades spawn more grubs, and the game's one of the most mindful of its 3D environments in the genre, especially regarding obstructions and vertical<br><br> <br>To top it off, Tactics nails the reconstruction of familiar enemies in a turn-based world. Boomers are just as terrifying and stompy, Tickers just as erratic and hyperactive, Kantus just as loud and obnoxious . There are a few new foes to discover too, but the core army of bad dudes didn’t require many tweaks to remain interesting and formidable.

However, those and other little nuisances pale in comparison to the game's droning sense of pace. Encounters feel like they drag on for ages thanks to an an inability to speed up or skip to the end of enemy turns and friendly buff animations that take too long to complete, and the overarching story is an even worse offender. Its first act is really an extended 5-10 hour tutorial, characters are uninteresting and hard to get invested in, and the plot doesn't exactly amaze six mainline entries<br><br> <br>It may sound like a given, but Tactics truly impresses in its presentation as another quintessential Gears entry.

I found the amount of skill-tree variety to be just right – nothing overly complex nor dumbed-down. The selection of weapon mods and armor perks brought me the experience I just about expected.

Oracles are now even more useful. Revelation and Envision have been combined, so cloaked units hit by the ability are now revealed for a period of time. Stasis Wards are a new Oracle ability that sets a trap that paralyzes enemies for periods of time, opening opportunities for synergy with Psi-Storms or Disruptor attacks. Carriers can now send out Interceptors to fight even outside of the Carrier's proximity, adding more harassment potential to a currently unloved unit.<br><br> <br>Perhaps best of all, however, is the cosmetics selection.
