    @KillaRTSCam @GearsofWar at least it's better than the slide fest that is wall bouncing. the fact that you have an issue with it proves my point

    @JipperyMcCloud @GearsofWar Ima keep it a stack, I don’t think this is specifically a gears community problem. People in general have become vile living online. Every game new or old, look at the comments. The problem is, the people having fun aint as loud cause we’re doing just that. Having fun.

    @Popogeejoe @Batchford_ @GearsofWar The game having more than one weapon would be great. But not if that other weapon makes the game worse. Thats the long term problem people dont see. Oh buff the lancer so more than one weapon is viable without the foresight to see what a strong version of it does to the game

    @GearsofWar Hey so the game launches in 6 weeks, where's an update from the beta? Like what's all the things you'll fix/add/remove? Or will you guys be radio silent like with reloaded? The remake of a remake.

    @CoalitionGears fix your bullet magnetism. So many guns shooting in other directions, but still killing me.

    Gears of War E-day beta is a total trainwreck.I never played a more clunky game in my life! The developers totally mutilated everything that was fun about Gears of war and I dont even recognize the game I loved. This game has so many issues that it seems unfixable! Gears 5 is 100 times better then E-Day and that is really sad when they supposedly spent 400 million dollars in development. This game is probably the worse game that I ever played before and with GTA coming out along with Modernwarfare 4 I dont see how this game will survive! I dont see how they can fix this game by October 6 and like I said Gears was my all time favorite game and I cant believe how bad this game is. I mean you can't even sprint and fire the Gnasher but sliding into players is ok there is so much input delay and the gun tuning is horrible and it has so much delay and clunk it does not feel like a triple A game and once the honeymoon faze is over the numbers in this game will diminish. I waited for E Day for years and I am sad and shocked bad it is. Thats what happens when you lose key members of development teams. E-Day feels like it went backwards not forward. If Gears 5 had a bigger community and they upgraded their servers I would delete this game off of my console and continue to play 5. If the Coalition was smart they would delay this games October 6 release date and fix all the issues! I just hope they can turn things around but that seems highly unlikely. RIP Gears of War @GearsofWar

    @GearsofWar can you fix the map outpost? It keeps glitching so nobody can load in.

  • Ruckuzz
    Raz (@Ruckuzz) reported

    I’ll share my honest thoughts on @GearsofWar E-Day: Week 1, perfect. Lancer was too weak, so a buff was needed but otherwise, servers/movement everything was great. Week 2, full decline. Lancer was way OP, server issues, dsync issues, unresponsive controls at times.

    Fix outpost we can’t even load to play the map. @GearsofWar

    @LUNITICWILL @Methodikul @GearsofWar LMAO, yes the Lancer is your MAIN SUPPORT WEAPON as it has been through all of Gears history. Again it wasn't until Gears 4 and 5 where it was broken and used by casuals (such as yourself, clearly) in a MAIN weapon type of way because it was broken.

    @BigTasteX @Community_Gears @GearsofWar obv frame gen will be a thing in the full game, but smooth motion works for now and it feels and looks the exact same as without it, no input lag or anything, just more (fake) frames

  • RighteousBronco
    JM (@RighteousBronco) reported

    @Punk_N_Pi3 @GearsofWar You failed to acknowledge my criticism. Why is the paid player expected to pay for Gamepass but the free player plays for free? I've been in the Gears community since the start. Not sure how the history lesson effects this issue.

    either gears of war beta or recent nvidia driver is crashing my pc after closing the beta. has happened twice now. reverted back to old drivers and things have been good. please fix by release date i really like the game @GearsofWar @Community_Gears @NVIDIAGeForce

    @GearsofWar Canceling Pre order- this game is ***. You all need to quit video games especially Matt Searcey - proof you are corporate greedy share holder simps. Forcing Ray Tracing is redundant- disable RT NOW! Up it to 5 man squads - NoW - push back release and fix the clunky camera lock.

    @BigTasteX @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Maybe bottleneck but big doubt with this game. I have seen at least 1 issue with framerate capping. For me, it's capping me at 75 FPS. No idea if that's the same for everyone, but my fix is to change my game from borderless fullscreen to exclusive, and then back to borderless

    @Anduxuel @GearsofWar What made it worse it’s naturally a two person weapon and they made it into a one person if it was still you needed someone to carry the ammo box then yeah fine that’s easier to deal with take out the guy carrying the box but yeah that **** broken

    @IceMaN_8o4 @GearsofWar It feels horribly inconsistent. They have a lot of work to do. Retro too strong, center shooting shouldn't be a thing, stopping power needs to be heavily nerfed or removed. It's fun. It has potential. But my god is the gnasher broken beyond belief. Its a dice roll.

    @GearsofWar Automatic shooting with Shotgun, A Button to RUN and JUMP and jump over cover all with A Button and faster running needs to be fix on DAY 1.

    I love Gears of War. Its been in my life for 20 years. EDay is heading in the right direction for the series for sure. OG gears fans need to understand that bringing in new players is going to require compromise so the game we love will stay alive. Feedback from the beta: Weapons - Lancer Proto: Remove the damage buff and increase accuracy a little. Reduce stopping power slightly. There's really no way to move around it unless you smoke Lancer Mk1: Make the accuracy worse Gnasher: Reduce gib range just a hair and smoothen damage drop off. Make the pellet pattern 100% consistent (if it isnt) Snub: Reduce damage slightly Incinerator: Fix odd issues trying to shoot from slide or cover tansition. Reduce Magazine size to 2 Gut Puncher: No spare ammo, its too strong Hammerburst: This weapon felt good Vulcan: I think its in a good spot Grenades in general: Adjust throw distance, its just a little too short. Tagging enemies should come back. I think thats a fair compromise to remove mines Longshot: This weapon is in a good spot Movement: Remove UpA speed boost. Movement should be consistent across the board Wallbouncing is in a good spot. Its fast if you do it right. Hyper bouncing is unrealistic (this is good) Sliding: Fix weird collision inconsistencies. If you slide into team mates or bodies you can literally disappear, died to this several times. Sprinting: I personally do not like how slow it is to turn the camera when sprinting, but I understand why it is this way. My only real problem with sprinting is the shooting delay from sprint. 15 years of muscle memory is gone since Im so used to shooting immediately out of a roadie run. Im not sure how to fix this or why its even in place, but worth discussing. Adjusting this may help the gnasher against rifles too. Mantle kick should come back, not sure about cover yank but mantle kick was fine. The Beta has been great so far. I've been waiting for years for another gears game and this one is poised to deliver a great experience. One thing TC, please do not cave to the gnasher only community and make the sole focus of the game gnasher wallbouncing. Everyone touts Gears 3 as being the best (myself included) and in 3 you could spawn in with a RETRO LANCER/SAWED OFF. All of the weapons worked and filled their roles perfectly. That should be the true end goal. The tunings in 3 rarely changed if at all. Please stick to this mentality. Nobody likes learning a new tuning every month, it's terrible. Make ONE tuning and stick to it across all game modes (no "competitive" tunings, they divided the already small player base). I cant wait to play the actual game in October. Its going to be a long wait. #gearsofwar #Eday @CoalitionGears

  • JaeLook
    Jae (@JaeLook) reported

    @TYPOGRAPH1C @GearsofWar Lancer is fine, the problem is stopping power. Stopping power with today’s aim assist is too strong. Not disagreeing on the buff. Can tune it down to how it was but stopping power needs to go. We’re repeating gow2/3 again

    @GearsofWar @Community_Gears @CoalitionGears Please buff the gnasher or just fix this man... i know its a beta but this is ridiculous for a game thats meta revolves around the shotgun
