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

    @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 @XBOX @XBOXSupport I've been having an issue on Steam Eday where the sound cuts out and a few seconds later the entire game crashes. After the game crash, steam also crashes and won't boot back up until I completely restart the computer. I have a 5070Ti GPU.

    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. 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

    @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.

    @GearsofWar Does anyone know how to fix the in game audio bug? And yes I’ve rebooted the game multiple times still not fixed. Playing on Series X

    @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 🥲

    @CoalitionGears hey there would be appreciated if you fix your ****** servers on gears reloaded. Absolutely pathetic can't even find a game

  • ImHellerTTV
    Heller (@ImHellerTTV) reported

    @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.

    Enjoyingorc6742 (@LUNITICWILL) reported

    @Gnomonknows @EpicGames Epic Games hasn't been involved with Gears of War since Judgement in 2013. it's @CoalitionGears that's developing it. also, Active Reloads has been a thing since Gears 2. also, the fact that you're sad about no more wall bouncing proves that you were part of the problem

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

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

    @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.

    @GearsofWar would love to play the beta but now every time I try to turn it on the game crashes my computer. All drivers up to date launching it on Steam and now have tried over 10 times and crash every time. Any tips?

    @GearsofWar Do you have your own servers? Lag so bad in a few matches it gave me vertigo.

    @GearsofWar Most inconsistent gnasher I've ever used and that says a lot because they always are. Its pathetic. Remove center screen shooting too. Fix the ******* game. Its horrible. You have 2 months.

    @GearsofWar Cool, now can you fix the 'Xbox controler not recognized' bug?

  • FreshiesGG
    The Motivation 🧱💸💰 (@FreshiesGG) reported

    @GearsofWar I’m be honest yall should be able to let us continue to play beta until release especially to guarantee some of these bugs are for sure not going to be a problem. Over the weekend the beta kept showing blank scoreboards or PCs was crashing I feel like we deserve extra play time

    @GearsofWar During this latest weekend, the controls sometimes go haywire and buttons trigger the wrong actions; most of the time, it pulls up the map or team screen, causing me to miss out on plays. Please fix this bug. I am playing on Steam using an official Xbox controller.
