Well in that case, go for Gears 5 and watch the recap video to get primed up.

You can always play 4 later. 

 

And even if you start playing 4 now with the sole intention of completing it as quickly as possible, it might start feeling like a chore.

 

what's your config, looks like only you and me are having problem.

GTX 970

i5 3550

16GB RAM

Game installed on HDD

 

It's weird though coz I played the tech test too and that ran smooth for me.

The full version is struggling to hit 60 even on all low settings.

I completely missed your post. So, you want Gears to not play like Gears? What changes you want? Gears FPS or dd Andromeda style combat where you can jet pack around and do ground pound and all?.  Can you give me list of sequels that fundamentally changed their gameplay loop.?

 

Outside of new God of War, AC Odyssey/Origins, Tomb Raider Reboot, MGSV and RE7. I can't think of any recent sequels of long running IPs which fundamentally changed their gameplay. RDR2 was more RDR with hardly any new gameplay changes, It was just more prettier and more refined. Metro Exodus was more Metro and new Call of Duty will still play like Call of Duty lol

 

What fundamental gameplay changes were done in UC4 compared to 3? UC4 combat was pretty much identical to 3 in gameplay. From meele combat to gun combat everything was identical. It was just more refined, fluid and prettier. Gun pickup and ammo pickup animations were still same as old UC games, just everything looked prettier and fluid.  Only new gameplay thing in UC4 was swing rope which was only useful in easier difficulty, on harder difficulty it was completely useless as enemies one shot you in mid air. You had to play UC4 like Gears by taking cover or you die instantly on harder difficulty. UC4 open levels were empty as well with nothing to do in them whereas Gears 5 open levels offer gameplay items which help in combat on harder difficulties like upgrades for Jack and powerful relic weapons. Gears 5 doing lot more new stuff that ND did it in UC4 compared to 3 if you compare gameplay feature by feature, plus its 60fps.

 

And same can be said for Forza Horizon and GT games which are near identical to each other but keep getting 90+. Borderlands 3 looks more Borderlands but bigger and more prettier but i have no issues with that because you really can't expect fundamental changes in every sequel. Changing core formula is risky and sometimes hurt franchise badly. Just look at MGSV and TR Reboot, i love both of these games but old hardcore fans hate em because they don't like the fact that core gameplay is completely changed compared to old games.

 

 

Gears 5 doing lot of things new compared to old Gears games and above all its 60fps on console which itself a huge achievement coz it's a rare thing on consoles. 60 fps in campaign and Horde cant be just ignored.

 

I criticized Gears 4 for playing it too safe but in Gears 5 they made meaningful changes imo

 

I'm not the one looking for changes, I'm perfectly happy with the way it plays. I'm talking to people who're expecting 90+ score, you're not getting that when it plays pretty much the same as Gears 1 lol.

Did start the campaign? I gave up after completing boot camp cause stuttering. So tech test ran fine. Wtf is happening here. I am losing frames 52fps in main menu doing nothing.

But games which did nothing to change gameplay got 90+ which shows media bias but nothing can be done about it. Industry is full of hypocrite people whether it's gamers on forum or critics. 

 

Also Gears 5 is different and more refined than all previous Gears games. Jack makes combat more interesting plus you get more choices during combat inform of DeeBee reinforcements. You can ask Jack to bring any ammo or gun on ground towards u, you can freeze enemies for instant kill and lot more stuff u can do with Jack. There is stealth elements but i doubt anyone will play Gears stealthily lol. Were these options there in Gears 1? Changes are not huge but it's definitely makes game more fun. 

 

If this plays like Gears 1 then UC4 also like UC1 coz that did less stuff to differentiate itself from previous games lol..

I have no issues on PC. Almost done with act 2. There are minor dips here and there but otherwise very much fine. Way smoother than Control.

 

The starting boots camp was a mess though for some reason. 

Humm, time to start main game then...

Installing Ultra texture pack now and will start campaign and we'll how is the performance...

I tried the campaign still stuttering mess and fps drops to 40fps constantly. Changing settings isn't doing much either...
