Subject: Down But Not Out removed from Gears of War Judgment

so now instead of me getting 12 downs every match and 5 kills because my kills are stolen I now get all my kills?

cool.

DBNO is just a crutch. As I said earlier, most hardcore (no, you're not hardcore for casually playing the game or getting back on it every once in a while) players just rage about the DBNO system. The only problem I can see from this would be getting killed from range a lot more and hindering shotgun battles because kids will just sit back and lancer. DBNO was stupid to begin with, you know for a fact that any good GoW player (going against each other) makes the system useless because most of the time it's just gibs or they get downed due to damage taken from the gnasher and then they get gibbed right after while raging helplessly on the ground. Most of the people complaining here probably don't even play ranked.


The only thing I hear people rage about is how they got their kill stolen (not a problem if you play with a team to win or just play Execution). Execution revolves around DBNO... it's the most popular competitive gametype for a reason, you can't just lancer across the map, you have to get in there and kill them as a team.
Once again , gibs. It's a stupid aspect even in Execution if you play with amazing players.
*confrontation*
*Gnasher shot-Gnasher shot-Gnasher shot*
*one player goes down*
*winning player hits 'B' and keeps going*


How useful was the DBNO system in your typical confrontation , shown above?

But that kills off executions, which is a big part of Gears of War!

Oh Look, another amazing franchise being codified...
Not really, sure taking it out might make it seem like they are leaning more towards Call of Duty, but this move is actually NOT catering to casuals.

If you honestly believe executions are a huge part of Gears, you're a moron.

Not everyone is into hardcore gnasher only multiplayer, executions add that Gears flavor to what would be a kind of boring game.

That's only for that situation. If there were no downs, then people would just lancer you to death from afar, getting kills easily.

Major props to my hommie Sheeef. He made Recon possible for me. Long time recovering emails and passwords. And it was his. lol.

WOW! Are you serious?!?!
What's with FPS games being all one hit and you're dead?! Keep original games the way they are. Gears of War needs to keep this. CD games... well they don't change they just duplicate. Halo, lol Halo. Everyone knows the direction their going.

But you get what I'm saying.

Once more, if you can't avoid the lancer......

It's one of those things that made Gears of War famous. It's also the thing that lowers the amount of Gnasher mashers.

Well then no one would come out from cover, I have a feeling the game will be very boring for that reason.

Overall, I just think it's not really fair to the fans to remove DBNO from every playlist... Execution is dead, CTL is dead (who cares though lol), meatshielding is dead (eh)...

We'll just have to wait and see how the game is, because there is a lot more that has been changed than just no DBNO... all I know is pretty much everyone on the Gears forums are against this. But maybe you'll like it, I just know I probably won't.

God forbid Epic tries to change up their new game so it doesnt get repetitve with their other Gears games. Saying the game isnt worth playing / buying because a feature you liked is no longer avaikable? Thats low.

Typical Waypoint post.
no it's "its got to go" you wouldn't say the "it is got to go" would you?

I don't see how this matters.

Would have been fine for 1, maybe a few gametypes... but removing it outright from multiplayer is pretty shocking, considering it's been a cornerstone gameplay mechanic since the beginning.

The thing is, this is the only thing that they're changing about it so far. They'd better change up some other aspects of the gameplay to accommodate for this gap, or they're going to have retaliation on their hands.

I don't understand this. I really don't.

It is a huge staple of GoW. Freaking executions? Gone? This isn't a Gears game.

Swag punks, fu­­ck off!

I know many of you hate me for this but YES! THANK YOU! I've hated DBNO forever! In all seriousness, it is a pretty rash decision.

Also, you can have a lancer in your hand with a boomsheild, Awesome.

Gnasher Mashers? If you honestly execute with other enemies left other than the one you're killing, you must be terrible.
