  It needs work: #GearsofWar E-Day Sprint delay needed to be shortened. Hit registering needs to be tweaked. Bring back roadie run. Work on lag. Overall it's fun hopefully It'll sell well. It's reminding me of Outriders for some reason.

  @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears 100+ hours deep into Horde Siege with the squad and I need to say this: you finally cracked something great. But it's hanging on a few fixable problems. Full breakdown below — devs, please read this one 🧵👇 (1/12)

  @CoalitionGears @asha_shar 160+ping. West coast (Wa state) 1 gig up and down Fiber I get its beta, I do. But this is a commonality between every single gears game since ever. Please fix this before launch.

  I've been playing since the beta launched and my game closed more than 5 times during a match, it made a crash noise and closed the game, I've already taken 3 banned from the ranked because the game is closing by itself. @Community_Gears @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears

  @Cowrex @TheDocHypnotic @GearsofWar It is your problem. Your card doesn’t support Ray tracing. Also depends on your resolution

  Hershey (@hershswagg) reported 25 minutes ago

  @GearsofWar The controls are terrible, please bring back true alt control scheme, and fix that damn gnasher. It’s possibly the worst gnasher since judgement. Honestly this game comes off more as judgement 2 instead of an actual gears game. Please listen to the people and fix the game.

  Hawk 💙 (@Kenneth_Hawk) reported 26 minutes ago

  Gears of war e-day multiplayer feel pretty good, insanely smooth animations, but they gotta fix the "legacy controls". They have a insane delay after sprinting that normal controls do not have. #gears #gearsofwar #gearsofwareday

  @MrManleypants @SteinsGreat @GearsofWar Gears 5 beta test did. So between the cloud and split screen not working, none of us in the house can play together. Big disappointment.

  @GearsofWar I pre-ordered the game on Xbox $100 one and for some reason I can’t get into the beta. Is anybody else having issues?

• 
  xSimonTheDigger (@xSimonTheDigger) reported 27 minutes ago

  @GearsofWar The gnasher sometimes would not register correctly such as i would shoot someone at point blank and the hit marker would register only one bullet hit but he would still die in one hit, and vice versa full bullets connect but do no damage. Might be connection issues idk.

  @hard8_times I'm sure it will be fixed, be patient. It is a beta. @CoalitionGears to make sure they see the issues your are having.

  @WARDOG @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears im having the same issue today

• 
  Kwan-Tsu Dude (@shloobmm3) reported 31 minutes ago

  @GearsofWar is the same broken garbage as every Gears since 2. Every round has 2 guys that are basically terminators. 80% of shots don't register and more often than not the guy who kills you is looking sideways. New controls but same broken experience.

  @GearsofWar Horde makes my Xbox crash where it turns off. Should probably iron that out before Oct.

• 
  xSimonTheDigger (@xSimonTheDigger) reported 43 minutes ago

  @GearsofWar There's only a few nit picks such as when picking up ammo it does the the animation of picking up a new weapon. I assume they will fix it in the full release. Another one is connection issues of horde siege, where bullets would be delayed. And that ties in to my last gripe was

  @Josh_B2004 @TheDocHypnotic @GearsofWar if my card can run any other ******* game max settings no thats not my problem there is no way of defending this for a thing that should be optional at best

  @Community_Gears ERROR: APP ID NOT MATCHING. Nobody on steam can boot the Beta as of now. Started with the recent Update today. Please patch asap. @GearsofWar

  Eoniy (@Eoniyh) reported 51 minutes ago

  @GearsofWar Horde siege was horrendous. Input lag everywhere. Latency everything. Not being able to progress the objectives due to bugs. Enemy variety is lacking outside of bosses. Where are the bolters, bloodmounts, maulers? I get story wise we can't have the kantus or therons. But come on.

  @GearsofWar played beta for 4 hours early with a couple crashes and no other issues. Now I can’t even get to the main menu without a crash. Cmon bro.
