Fans Want a Few Modes to Make a Return in Gears of War: E-Day
After the announcement ofGears of War: E-Day,players have many questions about various things, from the release dates to the different modes it will have. However, there are certain modes that players most want in the upcoming title: Horde and Overrun.
Horde Mode was introduced in the second iteration of the franchise, requiring 5 players to join up and defeat waves of enemies. There are around 50 waves of enemies, and each wave’s difficulty increases to keep the players on their toes. Overrun Mode was introduced withGears of War: Judgement, requiring 2 teams of players to defend and attack the Generator.

These modes were beloved by the whole community and that’s why they wantthese modes to come in the upcomingE-Daytitle. Reddit user JoonBoi97 even suggests combining the modes together and scratching the player’s ich for fun. This suggestion sparked a huge debate in the community and players started suggesting how the combination would work out.

While some can’t wait to see their favorite mode in the upcoming game (if it is included).
Most players still play the Judgement title to enjoy the Overrun mode.

These comments show thatGears of War: E-Dayhas great potential to add fan-favorite modes and bring more nostalgia to the players. However, they still need to bring new modes and innovate to actually sustain a player base in the long run.

The dedicated community is very vocal about various stuff, but this is a good thing as well. The developers should attempt to listen to their feedback and speculate to see what the players actually want.

Gears of War: E-Dayneeds to pay homage to the series with familiar modes and gunplay but also needs to innovate enough to stand aside from the other titles. With E-Day, The Coalition has a chance to regain the franchise’s moment after a few setbacks with previous titles.
In the end, players can only speculate and show their desire for certain modes, it’s the job of the developers to see the feedback and implement it in the game.
