There are differences in fidelity and detail density, for example, between Gears Tactics on PC and Xbox Series X, and it always comes back to this question of scalability and of making the play space readable from your couch. Were life easy, I'd take this opportunity to contextualise this by telling you that our friends at PC Gamer struggled to get the game running at 4K60 at Ultra-spec in its Gears Tactics benchmark tests (opens in new tab), so this type of performance out of Xbox Series X is incredibly impressive. Gears Tactics is 1440p on Xbox Series S and Native 4K resolution on Xbox Series X, locked to 60fps on both consoles. For a game like Tactics, we found that resolution becomes really important because you need to be able to read the play space." "Framerate is always at the top of my mind," McRae begins, spoken like a true technical director, " but… hitting 120fps wasn't as important as having the highest resolution possible. The companion bot takes a support role in the squad, coming equipped with over 20 new skills and the ability to hijack and control the new Deviant enemy units. PC players returning for more will find that there's a new playable character in Gears Tactics in the form of Jack. That said, the team has faced a difference in priorities between getting the game to shine on PC and on each next generation console. As McRae tells it, it's the same core group of engine specialists and technical designers at The Coalition who have been hard at work optimising the Gears 5 campaign to run at 4K resolution and 60 frames-per-second – its multiplayer at a staggering 4K/120fps on Xbox Series X – that are getting Gears Tactics ready for its console debut. Gears Tactics is of course developed on Unreal Engine 4, the same engine that powered Gears of War 4 and Gears 5. That really, really helped us because we have this nice and wide range of consoles to scale between now." When we made Gears Tactics for PC, we put a lot of effort into how we could scale it – from the highest-end desktop down to a laptop, or something very low-spec like 10-year-old hardware. "We don't like to just blanket apply the settings in that way. The game manages your soldiers' action points well during enemy turns."Is the Xbox Series X like an ultra-spec PC and the Xbox Series S like a high-spec PC? Sadly, it's not that simple," McRae laughs, going on to explain that The Coalition likes to make life difficult for itself to make games better for you. There won't be a situation where everyone attacks one enemy and the group behind them is left untouched. Your soldiers will only attack targets that can be knocked down.

If you are expecting an attack, set up several units with full magazines in the same direction. Also, the closer the enemy is, the easier it is to deal with them. Even if the "Overwatch" mode fails, the enemy can interrupt its movement when they get pinned down. They may also be narrow passages or corners of buildings. These can be exposed areas that lead directly to your soldiers.
Well-placed units can create "death zones" in which the enemy won't be able to survive. These can be grenades, skills of your heroes and soldiers, or the shooting modes of a given weapon. The only way to deal with this mode is to use skills that can "interrupt".
Overwatch mode is useful for forcing enemy units to take some action - it is activated not only during movement but also during an attack. The other weapons are roughly in the middle in terms of the length and width of the attack range. A sniper rifle is opposite - it has a narrow but very long cone of attack. A shotgun used by the Scout class has the largest angle of view in the overwatch mode but has a small range. This way you can determine the most effective angle for an attack.
In this mode, you determine the direction and size of the cone, which determines the attack range of your weapon. The enemy often attacks by surprise and from many directions. But it is worth using if you don't have another good way to use your soldiers. It's not worth activating this mode when you don't have ammunition in your magazine or have it less than action points. The number of shots is determined by the remaining action points. The game puts a lot of emphasis on this mode and many enemy units also use it. In overwatch mode, your units can secure a selected part of their field of vision. In this part of the guide, you will learn more about the Overwatch mode available in Gears Tactics.
