Hopefully someone else will summarise this video for you two, I can't atm.
- Impressive and very clean output at solid 60fps.
- PC-Version at Ultra obviously the best version with some graphical effects added like better reflections, all-in-all close to the X version though
- Impressive motion blur in Boot Camp
That's the short version of watching just a few random mins ;)

Yep I'm pretty pumped, and with the gpu deal, it's practically free.
AMD is giving away 3 months of game pass with a GPU or CPU (RX 5xx and RX 5xxx for gpu and and 2xxx and 3xxx cpu's).
The less scrupulous people* are just getting codes with their current hardware and registering.
*coughmecough
Lol, I thought you were talking about a graphics card promotion.
I just pray they fix the issue with 10 series nvidia cards. I'll accept it for next weekend but I am truly worried it will be present in the final release too. They never managed/bothered to fix the exact issue with Gears 4. It may push me to consider something stupid like a 2080TI.
What issue? Seriously never heard of one and I've been playing Gears 4 with my 1080 without issue for over a year.
Yeah but that's the thing, for the first time with Gears the campaign will also be 60fps, plus the locations will be bigger and more open than ever before. And that's with a rather shitty ass CPU. Can we really expect the E3 2018 visuals?
On PC it looks incredible and runs amazing, looking forward to it.
I have a 1080TI - for me the issue only occurs when also streaming with OBS (doesn't matter if I use x264 or NVENC encoding), but if you look around freezing on 10xx cards is quite a common issue. Completely crashes the PC. It's definitely related to Gears and Nvidia cards as my PC never crashes even when streaming the most resource hungry games.
Looks amazing and runs flawlessly. Arcade will be my main PvP in this game.
Can't wait for the full release

In this very video he switched from the tech test to Gears 4 at about 3:50 in the video.
Nostalgia eyes always make people forget what games looked like when new versions come out.
Its like people who think the Gears 3 maps in Gears 4 look the same....until you actually look at the maps in Gears 3.
Its effectively the same thing happening here...lucky the video does switch between the two games so youll see there are clear clear improvements graphically.
As for gameplay, youll only be able to tell from actually playing Gears 5 the tech test has been going for two weekend, you should have been able to do a compare and contrast.
THIS. Looks considerably better than Gears 4 and the HDR implementation is first rate on X. One of the best looking games Ive played on my C9.
Tbf that's footage from the Gears 4 beta which looked much worse than the final game
Between Beta and Final there usually is an improvement in visuals.
Cept when the "Beta" is like 3 weeks from release. *stares at Anthem*
So I expect Gears 5 to improve further by September....I mean it already looks spectacular and even in Side-by-Sides of Final Gears 4 vs Tech Test Gears 5 you can see Gears 5 is an improvement.
On the Benchmark at Ultra settings I get 60fps at 1080p, 40fps at 1440p and 30fps at 2160p on an old 4 core i5 CPU and an RTX 2070.
The game is very, very GPU dependant.
Very pretty game.
It's an amazing achievement that they can go for 2160p/30fps or 1080p/60fps on an XB1X considering it's price! 1080p/30fps on a standard XB1 is also an incredible achievement on a 1.3tflop GPU.
UE4 is an amazing engine.
