I've never done an OT before, but I am a giant Gears fan and would be interested in doing it for the beta.

Question: Are we allowed to curse in thread titles? I've got a very appropriate callback in mind.
 
Gears of War 4 Beta |OT| Judgement Day

Gears of War 4 Beta |OT| Down But Not Out

Gears of War 4 Beta |OT| The Hype Train runs on Whole Grain
 
Ok, to hell with it. I submit the following thread title as evidence of my competence. Please elect Moofers to create your Gears 4 beta thread.

Gears of War 4 Beta |OT| "That's FIVE, Motherfuckers!"

note: Gears 4 will be the 5th Gears game.

Nostalgia! I like it! Pobably won't be allowed because of the curse word.
 
I will do the beta thread with Agent Strange, he did great work on QB and KIS3 threads and I bleed imulsion so we are a great fit

AYYYYYY Lmaoooo

A gun to maybe push away shotgun rushers perhaps?
Please no. We don't need any of that shit. Rod even said in the interview that it was a mistake to try to steer Gears away from what it primarily became (a game accentuated by its movement, not by its guns).

This just looks like the Weapon-Specific Execution for the Dropshot.
 
Impossible to judge from small gifs, but it does look really clean and colourful there. Very nice. Gears UE MP already looked damn good but I expect this to truly look current gen.
 
I wonder if its really going to work with the keys this time around...

I had to post in the xbox.com forums to get my Gears BC codes..

I hate that they're doing it this way. Whenever it's not a physical code packed with the game or emailed to me at the time of purchase it always goes wrong for me. I have the worst luck with this shit. I didn't get my BC Gears codes for 3-4 weeks after my friends did. I had the discs already so I didn't care but for some reason I got mine way after everyone else.

If I miss out on that first week of beta access just trying to obtain my code I'll be bummed.

We aren't doing pre-loads for the beta.

We will be getting early access codes out starting on the 18th. This is very much a real beta and not a marketing demo. We are needing to gradually increase population up to test services and server load so we can't do preloads early on. The beta isn't a huge download.

Do I actually have to play or just open the app? I only had a chance to open the game before the expiration tonight

Looks like I may be missing out on the beta rewards after all since I don't have an XB1 yet and won't be buying one until at least after E3 or when Gears 4 launches.

I know that they had codes made for the Gears 3 beta rewards for giveaways, hopefully they do the same here and I get lucky.
