• 
  Spoons (@Silverwve) reported 57 seconds ago

  @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

  @BigTasteX @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Well I don't actually use fullscreen. I swap from bordless, to fullscreen, and back to borderless, and it fixed a weird frame capping issue. Is this stuttering happening in horde siege or versus or both?

  Give #gearsofwar a chance they have problems but it’s a beta. Let them have a chance to hear your complaints so they can make the game better. 🤞

  @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

  @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.

  Mr. McFinnigan (@BritishUnderdog) reported 27 minutes ago

  @XxiKGixX @GearsofWar @XBOX My biggest issue is that the distance you need to be to actually use cover like a regular human is way too close. It makes everything else feel very odd in terms of movement.

  @GearsofWar This isn’t ready and you won’t fix all this in two months. Please quit your job and hire a real development team- Got rid of planting gernadez Got rid of meat shield Got rid of chainsaw duals Force us to use Ray Tracing - no 4 instead of 5 players in a squad Ur Fired!

  @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 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.

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

  @Drunk_Virus @GearsofWar If they can't, you can always use Aramex shop & ship service. They will handle delivering it to you.

  I was streaming Gears of war EDay & they made my IBS stream & @GearsofWar beta game crash all bad smh they hate me bruh. Never thought showing my real inputs without use of cheats nor hacks would bring hate to my life. Regardless I'm streaming and gaming the right way

  @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 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 Please fix the gnasher aiming

• 
  Spoons (@Silverwve) reported 58 minutes ago

  @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

  Natsu Bodies (@NatsuBodies) reported 58 minutes ago

  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.
