I think I read this somewhere, but will Quantum Break also have an mp mode?  I read something about an alpha or beta somewhere. 

Not that I know of, but I personally hope it has multiplayer, the potential for awesome MP with those time powers would be quite interesting.

I think exactly the opposite, I like the concept but only for singleplayer, how shall that work in multiplayer? Someone uses his ability and everyone else can't really move for a certain time? That sounds super boring if you are the victim of this ability. 

Or it could be that the time powers will simply not be included in the mp.

Well, then I can simply play other games in mp because I don't see how Quantum break looks like such a great mp game otherwise. The time powers are one reason why this game looks so promising. 

I also never understood why people have fun with as example the Uncharted mp, the shooting mechanics are the least appealing thing of Uncharted.

Well, I'm just speculating here.  

Don't really know how it's going to set itself apart or anything.  Heck, before Last of Us came out, I thought the mp was going to completely blow, but I found it surprisingly fun.  But that's just me.  I don't really need too many cool things or whatever in a mp to play it, just that's it's fun and has great mechanics, tbh.

Well.. They (Sony fans) didn't know better (gears).



Did MS step out of the marketing deal with CD Projekt or why does CD Projekt have a Witcher III contest where the grand price is a PS4 and some other stuff? First we only see PS4 material and then you can win a PS4 but not an XBO, that is so weird.

Or they just have different tastes? I find Gears quite boring online but Uncharted is brilliant fun.

If you are a casual I can see why you dislike gears, I'm different tho.. I even take garden warfare seriously.

Online gaming is all about competition for me, fun comes from winning.

Yeah, I've no idea.

I've been thoroughly and consistently confused by this particular marketing deal.

Didn't wanted to derail but situation demands it. I played 300+ hours in Uncharted 3 multiplayer. Compared to "other" multiplayer its fast, very mobile and fun (especially maps that start in one place and goes to another). Also platforming plays a big role. Its not a "horizontal" multiplayer game.

Gears is also fast and mobile, and I played over 1000 hours in the last gen(still adding hours). And more than anything, is a big tactical battle that requires skill to kill even one enemy.



Im with Tiago on this. When i play multiplayer, or any kind of sport its about winning for me. Im highly competitive and im always pushing myself to be better.  It also annoys me people are obsessed with K/D ratio because that isnt what determines a good player.  Anybody can hide in a corner and shoot, but collaborating as a team to win, thats a different story. Team work, strategy, technique etc does.  Its multiple things.

Gears has a big learning curve. Its not as simple as pointing and shooting, there is techniques and strategies that you get from learning and playing hours and hours.

Gears is by far the most competitive and skillful shooter ive played to date. Though Counterstike and Halo makes that list as well i dont think they have anything on Gears.
