If Baird and Cole aren't in campaign. that's fine, as long as they are in multiplayer

[@ThePilleroflightning]

At most, they’ll get a cameo or have a short act for themselves.

[@ZombifiedVortex]

I think they are somwhere else to be honest, but we might see tai, kim, hoffman and other people!

[@StephGoKrazy]

Cole was still playing thrashball at the time so he probably won’t be in the campaign unless maybe they show his speech before he left the field to join the cog

@@jerseydevils9686 i mean i dont think itll be accurate as hell but close enough and give me that horror gore feeling i had from gears 1 and im a happy gear! 🤙🏻

[@MiutuvOnDemand]

1. Nicole Fawcette, TC's Brand Director went on record to say GoW:E-Day is "A story of many origins." And explicitly stated “[The Chainsaw Lancer] doesn’t currently exist in that period… but it’s not a Gears game if you’re not chainsawing Locust!” This would imply Tai will make an appearance in one way, shape or form. Whether it's a cameo or main character. Also, Tai and Marcus already know each other by this point. 2. Kalona, Tyrus might be counted as a standalone city, but I have a feeling it's close enough to Ephyra to not matter. Dom moved from Jacinto to Ephyra prior to emergence day. And there's no way that Dom could respond to the call to action in Ephyra and make it to Kalona that soon. Unless it was practically the same city. We don't have much info on Kalona, it may be a Ephyran district or it may be it's own city. Or maybe both, time will tell. 3. If we end up leaving Kalona/Ephyra, the next best place would be Jannermont. If we do end up there, finding Sraak's corpse would be cool. And maybe, just maybe, encounter Krav. Jermad. His story is completely blank following the events of Raam's coup. Perhaps, he'd make a fine boss battle! 4. This may be the first ever game appearance of Chairman Tomas Dalyell. The unlucky lad was in power during this disaster! Not that he'll last long anyway. 5. Kim might show up, but there might not be an interaction between him and Marcus. Gears 1 heavily implies the two haven't formally met. Although Kim, by the events of Gears 1, certainly knows about Marcus, due to his trial and conviction. 6. We could definitely see Maria again. She will be different for sure, a little depressed, a little distant. But watching your kids fall into an e-hole kinda does that to people. 7. The description states that Marcus and Dom will bond closer together following the death of Carlos, but it's worth noting they've been sitting on that tension for 2 years. 2 B.E was Operation Leveller and the Pendulum Wars didn't end until two years following. Additionally, assuming they didn't retcon the deep lore; Dom still doesn't know how Carlos died. Just that he was a hero and saved his team. And he wont learn the truth until Bernie lets it slip 14 A.E. Just worth noting during the story. Love your work Barricade. Always great to have folks like you keeping Gears alive! Stay awesome.

[@woclassjohnart5747]

Jermad gonna be E day. Raam his Marksman Locust.

[@mumtazali2824]

Maybe Sraak as the boss maybe showing the Theron guards torquing him right before raam finishes him off

[@woclassjohnart5747]

​@@N7_Bunnywe Didn't See Jermad In Gears 1 to 3 or what happened to him?. So it's you're Thought 💭.

[@FrozenxDeath]

I would love it if there was a segment in the game, perhaps near the end, where Marcus and Dom are pinned down by an overwhelming force of Drones-- And then there's a chain of explosions in the distance followed by a voice yelling on the comms _"WELCOME TO THE SURFACE, BABY! WHOOOOOOOO~!"_ as the attackers divert away from Marcus and Dom.

[@yazidefirenze]

For the last one, I can already imagine dialogue. “You knew my brother. Do you know how he died?” “He went out like a hero.” “Yeah, no kidding. Anything else?” “…Not really.”

[@nathanoconnor3516]

Well they could hear the dialogue from judgment if they push it back that far after e day when they lunch the light mass bomb. Cole doesn't join till a while after e day so if a one day thing it prob won't happen

[@C.Mustard]

I would put the “ whoooo “ first

[@TotallyNotALolicon]

With Baird enlisting on EDAY I would like to see that

[@zievv]

Hopefully we get to see a carmine like there dad or someone related to them

[@Zombiekiller-cz3lb]

I think they will be a cameo of the fourth carmine brother, hopefully not dying since the fourth carmine is the father of Elizabeth "lizzie" carmine from gears 5

[@dominicperez2987]

Gabe, Tai, Marcus and Dom

[@RIPMalice]

Definitely wanna see Barrick and the rest of Zeta-Six. They were just so good in RAAM's Shadow. We gotta see them again.

[@AJ-dx8si]

I won’t be surprised if Marcus worked with tai in E day. They were friends during the pendulum wars

[@Evilshtt353]

I think the one that make the most sense for the squad is Tai for sure. They could have Pad make his ingame appearance for E-Day. Who is a recurring character from the books. They could do easter eggs/cameo's for Baird and Cole but it wouldn't make much sense lorewise for them to meet since they dont canonically meet until Gears 1. They should definitely be part of the multiplayer though.

[@SmileyBoi21]

If the campaign follows E-Day and the opening moments and months then we can get a Baird and Cole cameo as members of Kilo squad. Marcus was at Halvo Bay when Kilo dropped the missile and if they didn’t want to include that part then they could at least mention them in a collectible you find or you overhear their trial from brief dialogue between gears or over the radio.

[@jimmysarva7864]

The game will not take place only on Eday but several days after too

[@CocLegend317]

How many of you want to know what happened to Sofia 😢

[@Unknownclone623]

[@dudeson53]

Would be cool to see cameos of Sofia, Ezra Loomis, and paduk, hell even Alex brand

[@NovaVor4380]

Baird wanted to become an engineer but was forced to joined the military because his parents wouldn’t give him his inheritance otherwise (high society family basically) They died on E-Day and Baird enlisted afterwards. Cole was with a few other people on his way to discuss a contract renewal with his agent when the raidos and the emergency news broadcasted the events E-Day, specifically his hometown of jannermont where his mother and father died. After playing a Thrashball game that was ordered to continue by the COG Chairman at the time, Cole publicly made his decision to enlist in the Army, which upped recruitment rate by alot.

[@davidjacobs7465]

Who I'd like to see, even if it's for a brief moment: Clayton (recruit), Sam, Tai, Barrick and Alicia.

[@avelinonunez5510]

Barrick joined because of operation lifeboat, I know Sam was in hollow storm

[@jeremy123577]

We're mostly going to get younger versions of the older characters but most definitely and hopefully some gears comic characters

[@R-es5pg]

Yooo, i haven't seen this channel pop up in my feed in years. Glad to see you're still going

[@probablytrue4753]

I think Tai is by far the most likely to make an appearance. I wouldn’t be surprised if they retcon the timeline a little so that Tai saves Marcus with the chainsaw (thus inspiring the chainsaw lancer) during the events of this game. GOW usually has squads of 4, even if most of the campaigns are only two player Co-Op. Maybe this games main 4 consists of Marcus, Dom, Tai and Rojas? If you’ll recall Rojas was the dead COG Soldier that Dom seems to have some history with given his dialogue when they found his corpse in GOW1. I also think it would be really neat for the prologue of this game to show Dom with Maria and their kids, kind of akin to the prologue of Fallout 4 where you get to spend like 10 minutes experiencing what the world was like pre-war.

[@markjones5672]

You do realise the timeline wouldn't face any retcon if Tai saved Marcus to help influence the creation of the MK2, right? In the novels, Tai saves Marcus using a power saw to kill a locust and that's where Marcus and his dad get the idea from.

[@johnoz2284]

Don’t know who the forth will be but the main 3 will definitely be Marcus, Dom, and Tai.

[@probablytrue4753]

@@markjones5672 yeah I know the events happened, I just mean, I have no clue the time frame in which E-Day will take place. Like if the whole story happens over the course of -+24 hours or if it’ll cover months. Because obviously it would take some time for Chainsaw Lancers to go into mass production it doesn’t make sense for them to exist in 24 hours

[@Scruffyv1]

so glad to see you back, miss watching your lore videos

[@travisreed1730]

I hope we get to see Raam, Skorge, Karn, Praax, Jermad, Ukkon and Sraak in this one. It'd be cool if they elaborated on the Beef between Sraak and Raam, Ukkon and his contributions to the Locust Horde, and the Bloodied Vanguard in GENERAL.

[@BroadcastGaming]

Excellent video as always. I got nothing but respect for the work man. Thanks for keeping the lore straight. More have to learn about Sera and it’s history!

[@LukeW5186]

Really torn between wanting a super tight knit story of just marcus and dom vs playing through all these other characters experiences of E-day as well. As long as they lean into the horror elements from GOW1 with the gameplay im happy!

[@Nandrall18-25]

I was devastated when it was revealed that Anya had died in 4. I really hope she's in E-Day.

[@avelinonunez5510]

She was in ephyra with Hoffman

[@archezbecray]

Its likely we will see Hoffman, Tai, Dizzy and maybe a different carmine brother. Baird is unlikely as he was in a different platoon, and Cole was still a thrashball player. Could see some easter eggs from his playing days like in GOW3. Would be cool to see a younger badass Kim. Maybe he can have a fight with raam but survives, which is why Raam wanted him for himself in GOW1?!?!?

[@jacksg5430]

Kim and RAAM meet already on the GOW 3 DLC shadows of RAAM

[@archezbecray]

[@PaganWookiee]

@@user-zy6mj2hd6m aye when the UIR invaded the island of irohma his clan was attacked and killed which caused him to go on a rampage which led him to meet Marcus in the jungle and joined the COG

[@miggle8547]

Im pretty excited to find out who the antagonists are gonna be. Raam? Some other Locust from the comics? Also i think your on the money with Tai is for Gears of War E-day it all lines up well with no clear story for him on eday and like you said he gives the idea for the chainsaw bayonet. But for the 4th character(since theres usually 4 members in delta) it could be a carmine who dies and gets replaced like Anthony or like you said Sam since she also has no clear eday story basically making it where they can do whatever they want with her and she has a connection with Dom in Gears of War 3

[@bryceelite2565]

I think the villians are gonna be Skorge, RAAM, & Jermad (Mainly) because they were the ones who basically started the E-Day attack in Jannermont (the first city to be attacked by the locust horde.)

[@Evilshtt353]

I mean it could be a Carmine if they want to keep the tradition going. I think Tai makes the most sense for sure. They could also bring a recurring character from the books. His names Pad for short. Hes a sniper. In terms of Sam, I don't know about any comics that mention her, but I don't think Sam meets Dom until the book "Anvil Gate". Which takes months after Gears 2.

[@tincanrex342]

It would be nice to see in a cutscene of the world reacting to e-day, and during the many reactions we see cole react looking at the TV, and baird reacting how the Coalition wants him to. They could also show child jace as reacting idk something like that

[@probablytrue4753]

It would be really cool if the prologue for E-Day was kinda like the prologue for Fallout 4. Like imagine being Dom and you get to spend like 10 minutes with Mario and the kids experiencing what life was like before the war, or in this case before the emergence.

[@corpsegrinder01]

I was hoping you'd mention Michael Barrick!! I'd love to see more of him during the start of E-Day. Absolutely loved his character in Raam's Shadow DLC. Such a bad ass! Not to mention, He sacrificed his life to save Marcus and the rest of Delta Squad against Blood Mounts.

[@Raaaaaaaaai]

If Gears of War: E-Day will get a campaign DLC like RAAM's Shadow or Hivebusters, I can totally imagine it being dedicated to Cole and maybe Baird too. Like, imagine seeing Cole react to his parents' death on E-Day or going to his last Thrashball game and telling the fans he's going to enlist, that would be such a throwback to Gears 3.

[@d3ath_realm]

adam, marcus, dom , a carmine with name beginning with the letter Z (lol), Might have missions before Eday for story and Carlos (doms brother) would appear, Helena Stroud, raam,skorge , Sraak FOR SURE, Karn, ketor, ukkon, etc etc etc etc lol

[@adrianmichel8959]

My wishlist for Gears of War E-Day. I have a strong feeling this 1st one will be included, dont start off immediately on Emergence Day, like show us the final days of the pendulum wars, then have a segment of Sera enjoying peace during those 6 weeks after the U.I.R. surrender. And yes Marcus and dom don't meet cole and Baird till gears of war 1 but try shifting between the perspectives of other characters during E-day. Like id love to see Garron Paduk during the fall of Gorasnia by General Karn. Have the carmine family trying to escape the chaos. Young Clay, anthony, Ben, and unnamed 4th carmine brother. Include Cole's speech at hanover stadium as he enlisted in the army to fight the locust.

[@boccardo62]

This is a essentially a great video thank you

[@juanbasilio2799]

Keep it going! We missed you!

[@TitusGuard]

I think its going to be a long prequel and the story takes place on eday and per act the time jumps some. I feel Sraak will be the villian along with his actual size because he dwarfs raam. Lore wise we would only defeat him because raam has to kill him. Id like to see Tai maybe even a reference to how marcus met him in the jungle during pendulum wars.

[@Little_Milk120]

Can’t wait to finally have Tai in a more main role in Gears. He’s genuinely one of the coolest characters in a game series.

[@eXRampage87]

Nice Video! There are so many you forgot to mention, how about Pad Salton and his Scout Baz form the Novels, or Sgt. Rossi? What was the Name of the red haired chick?

[@BobBob-up8fz]

I'd love to see Bernie and Tai. Baird was at odds with his parents. They wanted him to join the infantry part of the military. Or they wouldn't leave Damon Baird any money. Damon eventually did. But as an engineer. This was just before E-day. So, possibly, he could be referenced.

[@batman24015]

Cliff said he thinks the games first chapter will be during the end fighting of the UIR and then EDAY starts. I wonder if we will get to see helena stroud.

[@michaelwalker8870]

They could also role us into those first few scenerios from the first gears game and what if they decided to present the story in segments instead of as a whole one take. It's so much that happens alot of ground to cover. I think it would be a mistake to stick with just Marcus and Dom. And they have to introduce us to queen myrahh again. My theory for why we going back to E-Day us to potentially set up something much more sinister and foreboding for gears of war 6. We are getting introduced to the prodecessesors of the new generation and its possible we might get the Scorpion team since they we around during this time and didnt get locked up. I could see Lahni with Tai maybe Lahni would've been just getting home from the wars and went to celebrate with her cousin.

[@TheGrubKiller13]

If they do a story swap where we see multiple different points of view of people on E-Day I’d kill to see a young Clayton Carmine forced to fight against the grubs.

[@Iamshields632]

Not sure on Baird or Cole. I know Baird was with Kilo squad earlier in the War from Judgements game play. But Marcus made an appearance over the radio. So depending on the battle he could show. Tai should show up as he was around Marcus and Dom in the books during this time frame as the whole idea of the Lancer with the chainsaw came from Marcus watching Tai take a chainsaw and slice up a grub.

[@sponderculture7810]

Marcus hadn’t heard of Baird - he’d only heard him talk over the radio network when he was contacting Cole. Because Baird was quite aggressively/sarcastic demanding help, it wasn’t hard for him to guess who he was when he heard him talk (they were in a group of other survivors).

[@markjones5672]

Except in theory they can't encounter either villain (nor witness them) as Marcus and Dom's first time seeing each villain were in their respective entries of the series. Otherwise it causes some continuity issues of their knowledge of RAAM and Skorge during GoW1/2

[@gearshead1998]

@@markjones5672 Which is correct, for Skorge, which I feel if Skorge was to be included in this game it would be through multiplayer. However RAAM could be used, as originally we all thought Gears 1 was when Minh & RAAM first met when he was later killed, but later we found out Kim & RAAM met in Gears 3’s RAAM’s shadow dlc. So Marcus’s reaction to Kim’s death in Gears 1 & seeing RAAM could be a “fearful reaction” & a remembrance reaction from when he saw him on E-Day? Just a thought.. If neither are used I feel they could use Jermad or Vrol as a sub boss for this game.

The TV screen in the trailer says 'Kolona District', meaning the game COULD take place in Ephyra and Kolona is just a large area within Ephyra.

I think it’s the fourth carmine brother and Hoffman maybe if not it could be carmine from the first and his other brother

[@wyattbhoffman]

Clayton was the oldest and none of them were old enough to fighting

[@ManuelFernandez-nm4hy]

We will most likely have a mission with tai at the time he kills a drone with a chainsaw giving us the birth of the lancer rifle with the chainsaw bayonet

Can't Stop the Cole Train Baby!!! WOOOOOOO!!!

[@mylesaustinleetaylor2000]

I really hope this game doesn’t have weird contradictions and mess ups like how some prequels do that fuck up the timeline. Shout out to X-men movies

[@premeirsteam]

I feel like they might take some story from gears of war judgement and give us a cutscence with kilo squad or some mention of the court trial

[@premeirsteam]

Also im pretty sure the first time marcus and baird interacted was when baird was letting omega squad know about the lightmass bomb

[@roemelohudson1522]

I remember in gears 2 intro they had the chansaw gun but I could be wrong

[@connorthegambitgaming]

Gears 2 had Marcus,dom, Baird and Cole so bit of the intro takes place after 1

[@anthonysloan1263]

What about dizzy I would love to know what happened to him

[@JP-hx2kw]

What about Carlos S?

[@PaganWookiee]

I’m so hoping for Tai to return as he’s my favourite character and he should be in a squad with Marcus & Dom like the books

[@creamydash804]

The was a comic about how marcus recruited tai

[@xidiosynkratic2350]

RAAM, Skorge, Karn, Vrol, Ukkon, Jermad, Ragers, Bloodmounts, i hope we get to see all the OG Locusts 😭 or at least most of them. Breechshot 🤞🏽

[@drewyoung4694]

You know, they should do what they did in transformers fall of cybertron character mission where you play as both locust and human in the campaign
