    @GearsofWar @Community_Gears after this update there is huge audio issues especially on the voting screen but mid game sound went completely under water

    @XBOX @GearsofWar The body movement should be a little more fluid. Right now it's like running on skates and too "robotic". Fix the spwans on conquest that have your strating point across the map. That's horrible

    @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.

    @GearsofWar Please fix this and make all the shots come from either the barrel or the centre of the screen. The current placement is extremely inconsistent... @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar

    @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

    @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.

    @GearsofWar I really don’t have time to get to level 20 in the beta due to the bugs and DC issues so I’ll probably just return it since I didn’t get those before the game came out.

    @GearsofWar Another Horde issue/bug I ran into is when a teammate was too far out of the vicinity of the rest of the other 3 teammates at a main objective which bugged it out for everyone to where it wouldn’t start when the rest caught up… resulting in everyone having to quit.

    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

    Lol the lag on versus was pretty bad @GearsofWar. Plus the wall jumping is a bit much, maybe it needs to be turned off at a certain distance to avoid abuse. Can keep it the same in Horde mode because it's useful for evasion. -Active reload needs to be tied to the local players system not the game connection to avoid lag during reload. I kept missing perfect reloads because it would jump around. I'm working on better internet too.

    @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

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar is there any proper fix planned for the gill-gutpuncher error code? I tried the solutions I saw on the site, re-installed the game, and nothing seems to work.

    @GearsofWar if yall don’t fix the sync and the cheaters. Your game dies. No one wants a clunky *** gears where nothing works. It’s a beta yes, but if this is how the game plays? Good luck

    @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
