    @GearsofWar The game feels great and so fun, but just fix the shot coming from the gun and not from the center of the screen 🥲

    Why did you dumb *** ****** buff the lancer ******* gears 3 all over again fix this **** @GearsofWar

  • FavynTube
    Favyn (@FavynTube) reported

    @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

    @TYPOGRAPH1C @TrxgikS @GearsofWar Lancer was strong in gears 1-3 and wasn't a problem for casuals.

  • Chewy_XVI
    Chewy (@Chewy_XVI) reported

    @CoalitionGears Remove actives. Revert the Lancer changes. Nerf Retro damage. Tone down the stopping power. Make strafing speed faster. Fix input delay. (KB&M) Give us more control over our character movement. It currently feels far too clunky and unresponsive. Remove shot delay. Bring back Barrel shooting. Increase Gnasher poke damage. Make the Gnasher more consistent. Buff the Gnasher shot count back to 8. Improve netcode. Improve hit boxes. Nerf Incinerator ammo count to 4. Nerf Gut Puncher ammo count to 4. Nerf the Mulcher. (Insta deletion) Bring the respawn timer down to 6/8 seconds. Bring back our damage percentage. Fix hold to sprint (KB&M) FOV slider.

    @GearsofWar Are you guys actively pushing for proper regional server allocation and strict ping limits ahead of the full game launch ? I am put up in SEA and facing above 130 ms -231 ms ping in every mp match/horde. Gnasher kills are impossible. The latency/lag is unbearble.

    @sTpDEVOUR @Community_Gears @GearsofWar U find a fix? I have the same problem

    @Gears_maniac06 @XBOX @GearsofWar I don't think it will actually show up. Probably a glitch, but sure would be cool if it did

    @BigTasteX @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Nothing is at 100% usage? Like no 100% cpu use? Did you try the exclusive full screen fix?

  • TimeMaster2042
    TimeMaster (@TimeMaster2042) reported

    @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 Imagine if your game didn't lock up and crash.

  • NatsuBodies
    Natsu Bodies (@NatsuBodies) reported

    Can we get some conversations going about the issues with the beta or just get some hype going talking about the positives? @Community_Gears @GearsofWar If you can make a shady post because you made a typo about aim assist, ya'll can have the Community Manager speak to us.

    Humble (@HumbleHamson) reported

    @Gearsovwar @CoalitionGears Gears 1 we used to call that the backpack, I don’t mind it. The timing needed to be hit like that is very minuscule when in a live game. But the lancer bullets demonstration they def gotta fix.

    @CoalitionGears Disable Ray Tracing immediately Fire Matt Searcy - game is terrible you need to push the release back another year and fix the game it plays like ***! You are all terrible and need to quit. Hire real game developers- so bad!

    @LilyLilyprints @GearsofWar fix this ****.

    Anxsighety (@AnxsighetyX) reported

    @ItsAhki_ @GearsofWar The lancer is so broken the shotgun is pointless. Gears is about smart aggression, not sitting still with an automatic. The tuning was fine. Now it’s insanely broken. Especially in ranked.

    @bigdogsride @GearsofWar What’s the problem? All of them have been enlisted/commissioned into the COG. Taking orders from a Captain is nothing out of the ordinary lol.

  • PresidentRick
    Ninja Rick (Together We Are Stronger) (@PresidentRick) reported

    @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears Helpful feedback: You removed roadie running, “meat shielding” & grenade tagging. You can’t mantle with the run button, sliding gets spammed, movement can feel unresponsive, & there are UX, reload, sniping & other issues. Vet players believe you can do better.

    @GearsofWar The beta ended the first day of early access cause all it does is crash and crash ans crash and yall just waste basket all of my 20+ issue reports

    @GearsofWar Your beta has cheaters now. The multiplayer will be dead within a month like Gears 4 if you don’t address this issue

    @ReimansZuwa @Gearsovwar @CoalitionGears Perhaps it is time to fix the game then?

    Every time I’m about to finish a horde siege the game wants to crash thanks @GearsofWar @Community_Gears

  • _Aaronify

    MY FINAL THOUGHTS OF GEARS OF WAR: EDAY They had SEVEN years to make this game and to be honest they need more time week 1 beta was the most fun I had then week 2 came and it’s the most dogshit thing I ever experienced. Open beta made me realize that the @Community_Gears don’t care about their player base they had couple of days to fix 12 second timer, and some bugs but decided to ultimately buff lancer ( which isn’t a big deal ) and did other things besides what most people complained about. This open beta is final product and they are not fixing ****. I definitely do not recommend this game spend your money on something better. Do better @CoalitionGears I’m so glad I got my refund.

    @GearsofWar What they really need to fix is the inconsistent damage of their weapons. A 12-second respawn time? And sometimes the bullet comes from the middle of the action, and other times who knows where it comes from.
