Will Gears 5 have the classic mode of Execution?

I just started playing the test tech and I’m truly saddened. This is not Gears. This is a horrible mix of Gears attempting to be the third person Call of Duty game! You don’t start off with shotguns and you can’t find weapons like the torque bow on
the map. You now can unlock them mid-battle based on how many skull points you get. The old saying stays true — if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. You are trying to cater to a new group of gamers while leaving the loyal Gears fans in sadness. Does anyone know
if they will be having regular classic modes in the released version?

Usually Tech tests are less to give people an idea of what the full game is going to be like, and more about making sure that the game servers can keep up with the demands and stress that us gamers are going to be putting on them among other things. Usually
these tech tests have a limited number of game modes or missions available.

I imagine that there will be regular classic modes in the final release version of the game, but best to reach out to the developer and ask them about this.

I certainly hope so - loved that mode

I really could not try another game mode that was not arcade, I have the belief that king of the hill is different as to how to find or obtain weapons, because in fact I also do not like that aspect, hopefully the next multiplayer
test be better

I think you missed the point of the Tech Test though. Its only limited playlists to test what the game as it stands can handle. Its probably nowhere close to what the full experience of the multiplayer is/is going to be for Gears 5. They might bring back
old favorites at launch, they might not at all, or it could be after launch. The Tech Test is meant to test server support while players both new and old can get a feel for a small portion of what may or may not be to come. Nothing is 100 percent set in stone.

I think I kind of like more "refined" game play. It expands to a broader audience not only to bring numbers for the game up but it also brings something new to the table that shouldn't be so quickly judged. I think its decently challenging. then again, I
was never a hardcore Gears multiplayer person but I did beat every campaign (with the exception of the 'Ultimate Edition' of Gears 1) on hard... So I think I know a thing or two about challenge.

I like it. I've got all the rewards so far too. But hey, its just an opinion right?

I hope so.

Gears was popular because of what it was.

I would hate to see them change it completely. I think that they would lose an incredible fan base.
