Gears Ultimate Beta Access

I remember the feeling of rage as a team mate runs in front of you while shooting the boom. Thanks for splatting me!!
Aaand two point blank gnasher shots did nothing. :(
 
Daily beta unlocks. I'll try and post more screens.

This game went from a must buy to a pass unless they remove the glowing online. It adds nothing to the game but takes away so much
 
Keep the impressions coming.

The original Gears multiplayer was the highlight of the last generation. Unless they screw it up somehow (which is certainly possible) then I'll have to buy an Xbox One for this.

Does it have split screen? What about legacy control options?
 
Weird for me, The second code had been sent an hour ago but due to it being part of the same Xbox Live message it never gave me a notification.

Might be the case for others so check.
 
I don't get why they made this a closed beta rather than an open one. Like, just let us download it and play it like you implied at your conference...
 
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I got a second access code lmao should it be safe to give it to my friend?
He got first code but not access yet
 
Yep... Trying to use anything other than the Gnasher is pointless. A stark reminder why I didn't bother with online MP in GOW1. Bummer this won't have Horde mode. That I'd actually play.

But damn, the game does look nice. The 60fps is a little weird at first, but it runs pretty smoothly and I didn't notice any major drops.
 
Just downed someone and could not execute with X. Then couldn't even shoot down. Luckily he bled out, but I was killed by his wingman in the process..
 
Just got in a "social" game against some guy who went 16-0. Absolutely unstoppable. Sniping headshots, getting anywhere close to him it was an automatic down by one blast from a shotgun. Ridiculous.

Almost want to bitch about host advantage, but isn't this shit supposed to run on dedis?

This guy was incredible. And annoying as shit.
 
Been trying to get this working for awhile now & no luck. Redeemed both codes, but the game keeps freezing at the Unreal Engine splash screen. Anyone else have this issue/found a fix? Thanks.
 
Just got my full access code, turns out it is the same code as the game download code. Thanks, it's already been redeemed. Still can't play.
 
People are playing this and having fun and i'm still waiting to even get my first code.
My friend got his download code 2 minutes after the press conference and now has two separate access codes. I've got zilch. In the grand scheme of things, it's fine. I'll get plenty of playtime in over the next few days and a metric shit ton come August, but it's frustrating.

My schedule is already completely screwed up today between a crappy cold and watching E3 conferences like some kind of fiend, so would've been a great night to stay up stupidly late like I did in my late teens with Gears 1. Such good times.
