All around us are familiar faces.

Witness the harrowing origins of Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago in Gears of War: E-Day, the origin story of @GearsofWar: https://t.co/Cb3YEKVCfx | #XboxShowcase

@ZenkaiGoose @kick_sgt Okay ... I have to step in here. Having worked in AAA UI for many years, the UI does NOT 'just hook into an API'. Creating UI is incredibly time consuming and costly for studios. No team working in ANY AAA team is just going to change their UX and UI based on a mockup.

@therealcliffyb @DavidEllis We used Eliminated in Gears 5 to credit the player(s) contributing to downing the enemy and the player finishing the kill. And yeah, it was also done in reduce the toxicity around kill stealing as David mentioned.

@matthughson @therealcliffyb Making games is indeed hard.

@ILif3ofdreads Thank you sir ! Much appreciated. It's been a good challenge in the new role.

[Joshua Trusz @trusz]

Its a bittersweet day for me today, as its my last day working for Microsoft and The Coalition.

It's been an incredible experience working on Gears the last 6 years. I have nothing but love for the game and the team and will miss them both immensely. Time for a new challenge.

@matthughson @Photoshop There's a preference for it .

[Joshua Trusz @trusz]

As a father to 3 kids, I can’t even comprehend the thought of fearing for my childrens lives due to gun violence at their school. How is the system so corrupt to not end this.

@AndyMck44 Good luck with what’s next Andy !

@gocactus @PLawrenceMP @PierrePoilievre That’s my home town … you’re not wrong.

@spacecatlondon I took Advertising and Graphic Design at College in the late 90’s, which landed me in to Web Design in the early 2000s. Through some luck knowing good people, I landed a role at EA in 2004 and have been in the games industry ever since .

@dorian_stewart Figma has been rock solid , and I’ve found it a better experience than using XD . Worth taking a look.
