Any explanation or theories ever given why the Imulsion in the Hammer of Dawn satellites wasn't affected by the Imulsion Countermeasure used at the end of Gears 3? Either the ones still in orbit, or the ones launched in Gears 5? Guess the same would apply to the Kadar lab, since the Matriarch, Locust hybrids and Sires also weren't affected.

The weapon couldn’t reach deep underground also the weapon was made to affect the planet not its solar system so idk how he would’ve made a weapon strong enough to affect space

The weapon was supposed to reach across the entire planet. Given what we've seen of the satellites, they appear to be in relatively low orbit, so the ones used against the Tempest at the end of Gears 3 would've been closer to Azura than other places on the surface and thus in range.

It’s always been written like that since g3 lol

#

Also just cause of some thing you say measurement doesn’t mean it’ll work this was the first time the weapon was used

I never read any of the books or comics (outside the stuff that was unlockable in UE), so I don't know if it was mentioned there, but within the games, it wasn't really a problem until 5 when they tried to use the Hammer again. If the weapon was supposed to destroy Imulsion, then things that used Imulsion should've been rendered inoperative.

They’re in space the weapon was made for sera only

#

Also there also be no point in doing that either to design the weapon to be on that scale when the imulsion up there isn’t even evolved and is only the fuel still

#

Also in the g3 cutscene it shows it only pulsing around sera’s atmosphere and nowhere else

It doesn't seem the weapon would've been able to fully cover the planet unless the waves spread in all directions, including upwards. And if it fully circled the planet, it should've been able to reach the satellites, which weren't as far away as the far side of the planet.

From the cutscene the waves shot yo in the atmosphere of sera and drifted through the planet we even got a space pov of what it looked like it barely even passed most fo the clouds

#

I doubt that one man would be able to create a weapon to annihilate all life of a certain cell

#

And than thinking he’d be able to make it affect space

#

Which he wouldn’t need too cause the hammer satalites are either broken,shutdown, or unstable

#

And the one in the Azura was made under some super special military bunker that goes deeper than some locust bases so the waves didn’t go deep into the ground

#

Which is why in the cutscene it only showed locust dying above ground

#

And none under ground

I would say that the countermeasure didn't reach objects in space.

So if there were any Locust on the far side of the planet from Azura, they should have survived the countermeasure as well, because it wouldn't have reached them, either.

They than sent cog hit squads on the last few nests of them

White space people. Need areas to grow. To box the game into a small area, is death by a thousand paper cuts.
