@ETReeky @GearsofWar The problem is the only reason people are complaining is because of the center screen shooting but they fix everything but that so people will continue to complain.

@Gizmo3491 @GearsofWar The center screen is better in my opinion. If it is a shooting problem for you then all you need to do is look at the center to aim and shoot - not that hard.

@Soggy_Senpai @Community_Gears @GearsofWar As of September 3, 2025, there's no official announcement from GearsofWar or The Coalition about reverting the Gnasher shotgun to its beta status. Launch patches improved its spread, damage, and hit registration to address beta issues, but players report persistent inconsistencies like unexpected one-shots. Further updates may come based on feedback.

@GearsofWar Allow classic alt players to rebind or at least disable the option to focus teammate when clicking right stick - big issue. Allow mnk to use alternate (no scroll allowed). Increase lancer and maybe snub recoil or spread. Introduce proper ranked mode.

@CoalitionGears Based off the launch of this game, and it being the absolute most lag filled online gaming experience I have ever had. I have to say I will absolutely not buy your next title. Every, and I mean every single game I play characters are teleporting around the screen.

@Gizmo3491 @GearsofWar I prefer barrel too, but center screen aiming is not really a huge problem either. The problem is the developers not fixing the glitches that come with center screen aiming. For instance, there is no way you should be able to shoot people through walls.

@GearsofWar Can you guys spin up a small legacy team to address issues with legacy titles? Gears has been a series that really pushed achievements, particularly with the "Seriously" achievements. Yet most Gears of War games cant be completed anymore and have broken achievements.

@GearsofWar The up close damage is the problem. thats where all the one shot downs are happening consistently

(@Gizmo3491) reported
@GearsofWar you guys keep “fixing the shotgun” but never actually fixing the problem which is center screen shooting. 2025 the bullets should be coming out the gun not the middle of the screen!!!

@GearsofWar Reduced power in the mid-range: OK! But it wasn't necessary. Bullet spread not as tight when aiming down sights: 100% ERROR! 👎🏼

@GearsofWar Yall ruined the game with the first update. Now the game is borderline unplayable. Fix the servers. Stop changing the core gameplay… no one wants to play with these wall bouncing bozos who dont even die from a active gnasher shot
