    @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.

    @GearsofWar @GearsofWar You all really screwed the beta up with that update no clue what you all did but its not *skill issue*. Everything was working fine before that update. Now it’s Lancer heaven. I have no clue if you guys thought, “Yay, we balanced the weapons,” because no you absolutely did not. The servers were also acting worse. Good luck with launch. Hopefully things are better and the weapons are actually balanced, because otherwise this game is going to fall off just like Reloaded.

    @CoalitionGears Deciding not to have split-screen on PC is such a weird decision to me. Especially with the recent release of the steam machine and how implemented it already is. The subsystem is completely wired it seems they are gating it just to gate it. Please FIX this and implement split-screen on PC. #eday #edaygears #gearsovwar TCGameViewportClient : GameViewportClient (live instance at runtime) - TCGUIComponent_SplitScreen (UI scaling rules for splitscreen) - FLSplitScreenTetherComponent (co-op tether radii, SplitscreenTetheredPlayers array) - TCLocalPlayer : LocalPlayer - FairlightGameInstance exposes OnSplitScreenPlayerJoinFail delegate - Campaign/beat-specific hooks: bEnableSplitScreenAtEnd, bIsSplitScreenActive, splitscreen-only audio events

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

    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.

    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

    @Popogeejoe @Batchford_ @GearsofWar The lancer is going to be the only weapon thats the ******* problem what are yall casuals talking about sincerely. You guys complained fhat “it takes over a clip to loll someone running at you” but yall can’t even hit your shots because i was downing people all last weekend.

    @CoalitionGears you need to figure out a way for people to still collect their XP if their game ends up crashing. I've had this open beta crash twice on me back to back close to extraction, only for the game to end up crashing on me and losing all my progress.

    @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.

    Split-screen not being available on PC isn't due to a technical issue, it really is being left out by design Gears of War 4 & 5 were amazing Split-screen experiences on PC, Reloaded not having it was a mistake. E-Day needs it too Can we please correct this mistake? @GearsofWar

    @Silverwve @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Yeah I’m not being capped or anything. I tried using my lossless scaling frame gen app off steam, but even then it’s rough. Lots of input lag and the game is so unstable bouncing between 35-65 that it’s still not helping. Frame gen may not be enough with how unstable it is :/

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Played a couple matches this morning and all imma say is fix the audio.. never thought I’d say this but having a audio bug where it feels like I’m under water the entire game is not fun.

    @GearsofWar Will the “GDK not available” issue be fixed when the game comes out so I can actually play it?

    @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 🥲

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Is there somewhere to submit bugs/glitches? When modifying a weapon in your loadout in Horde Seige, when you go to select a weapon mod, your weapon parts can be spent automatically in error on a random weapon mod

    I hope for launch it gets fix when picking up ammo you don’t just pick up the weapon, noticed that in the beta and was just strange that you don’t just pickup the ammo #GearsofWar

    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.

    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 I have also tried three different D-Pads. I'm not a top tier player by any metric, however I've never had this issue in any other #Gears. Not being able to trust switching to my Gnasher has cost me so many battles. #GearsED

    @CoalitionGears look if you guys tried to fix the crash on gear e day, it did not fixed it because I was playing horde mode after I did the new update for the patch and still crashing on Xbox series x not sure why my cooling system it’s perfectly fine normal for other games …

  • CreatureFromNet
    CreatureFromTheNet (@CreatureFromNet) reported

    @GearsHate @GearsofWar Probably your controller needs refresh. I had no input issues, it was just the actual game play. Like the shots hitting center of screen not from the actual character.

    @XBOX @GearsofWar Yeah no you need to gut the studios behind gears E-day and fable the girl boss in gears was unnecessary and just cause you made the protagonist in fable look slightly better doesn't save it from all the bad lip syncing and combat issues. You gave them gold and they ruined it.
