If this is going back to E Day, we may see the original delta squad. Tai might be back baby.

@Buster-McTunder 16 күн бұрын

That’s what I think. They said the lancer mk2 origin will be in it, I bet it’ll slip forward to Dom, Marcus, Tai and Pad when they get to Jannermont

In Gears 5 Jinn had said that the Hammer of dawn has taken more COG lives than most of the armies they’ve opposed. I hope we actually get to SEE that play out in E-Day.

@Buster-McTunder 5 күн бұрын

That didn’t happen until the Fortification Act around 1 year into the war, around when Tactics takes place-- so it depends on how far forward Eday jumps in the timeline from Emergence itself.

@wingman4759 5 күн бұрын

@@Buster-McTunder They showed small clips of the Hammer of dawn strikes in Gears of war 2 during queen Myrah’s opening monologue. So I’m sure they’ll show it all happen in real time. They even showed the aftermath of those strikes In gears of war 3. It literally turned people to ash and they stood frozen in time forever. So when Jinn said that…I believed her, 100%.

There’s so much potential with E-day. It being the catalyst of what defines Gears of war itself. I’m just thinking about what they can do with this prequel. A good example would be the re-introduction of General RAAM!!! I mean look at how they redesigned the Locust Drone! Now imagine a new more intimidating creature. And in his prime…fuck that thought alone gives me goosebumps 😅 I’m so hyped for next year🔥🔥🔥

@wickdaline8668 17 күн бұрын

So the Locust were man made. But their population bread underground after Prescott uncovered Niles's secret. I always thought them to be an alien race hidden underground. This should clear up what we see in Gears 2 and 5.

@Buster-McTunder 17 күн бұрын

There’s a bit of clarity we’re missing as to how much of them are/arent manmade. My personal theory is that a lot of the Kantus and their religion were already existing but the more human Locust like Drones and Grenadiers were manmade. Also, Chaiman Munroe, Prescott didn’t become Chairman until just near the end of the Pendulum Wars. New Hope shut down roughly 50BE.

@blueguy2128 15 күн бұрын

@@wickdaline8668yeah that's what I don't like about the lore. It would've been cooler if they were just another naturally occurring species in a hollow Earth type of scenario that lived underground and domesticated the other native hollow creatures. It would've made much more sense since the locust obviously number in the billions and have an established culture, infrastructure, intelligence, and are the subject of stories used to scare kids as if they're a legend or myth. I think it'd be way cooler if humans and locust once had wars or traded with things ending badly and history was forgotten hence why they're the stuff of legends and have so much animosity for the humans.

@williamcooper8599 15 күн бұрын

I’ve never liked the idea that they were man made. I prefer the idea that they always existed underground or just leave their origin a mystery. Apparently they were created when the pendulum wars started and were intended to be super soldiers before the experiments went wrong and they escaped. So basically they’ve only been around for 100 years.

Im curious what the citizens of Sera called their years before EDay. I know they say "AE" for "After Eday" and "BE" for before but the people of Sera had to label their years SOMETHING before Eday happened.

@Buster-McTunder 10 күн бұрын

I would assume probably around the Age of Armageddon, basically Sera’s Dark Ages. Thats the furthest back we know of, a couple hundred years before the modern day. Like BA or AA, but honestly I don’t think we’ll ever know. It’s kinda like Star Wars where everything is timed based on before or after the Battle of Yavin.

You know me and my friend are mega fans for gears of war but right now we are having a debate if I remember correctly gears of war judgement was based 30 days after e day so me and my friend are debating whether or not if the general of the locust army will be either Raam or Karn

@Buster-McTunder 11 күн бұрын

Raam was the general of the entire army. He was Uzil, which is like the Queens right hand. Karn was Zamil, which is more like colonel for the Locust. They just called them General earlier on in the series. It’s just that Karn was sent to Gorasnya while Raam invaded Tyrus.

Given his "I literally can't care attitude" towards the Corpser in Act 3 I wouldn't be surprised if he failed to blink twice at Kryll. But either or might fly. I believe the first time Raam used the Kryll was around 8AE during Raam's Shadow.
