Add to your list audio issues with gears 5 pc. Complete broken
If you’re too close to the boss when it explodes, you get stuck in the stunned pose
Heavy weapons disappearing from lockers
There’s so much to bring up I lose track of things. I know it’s not realistic to expect them to fix all of this soon, but I sure hope they at least be more inclusive of the various complaints when bringing up what is on their list of things to fix, what are they investigating and what will stay as is.
Campaign
• Subtitles can’t be changed for backlight, speaker or CC
• They removed the player controlled Flash Light, forcing you to rely on Jack
• No option to switch a Private game to Public without quitting
• Can’t ask AI partners to swap weapons with the ones they have holstered
• Giving Relic weapons to AI teammates will sometimes have them swap for the default version
• Can’t activate the Jack Ping while on the Skiff
• Can’t track which Jack power-up you got and which you might have missed when
Progression
• Story, Private Versus and Player Made Escape don’t count towards Challenges and Medals
• You can get the same Daily Challenge when resetting it
• Daily Challenges only give Stars, so maxed out Tour makes them useless but you can still spend Iron on them
• Daily Challenges aren’t clear enough on what actions and modes will count
• No in-game timer for the Daily Challenge reset
• Cant scrap items you don’t want
• Can’t see what’s in Supplies, when you’ll get your next one or how you progress towards it
• In the weekly leaderboard reward you can’t see exactly where you stand without scrolling through the list
• Weekly leaderboard rewards aren’t based on historical placement but final, meaning where you stand might change last minute without notice
• You can’t see everything you can earn from the locked screen
• Can’t see Daily Challenge or Medal progress in-game.
• Can’t reset Daily Challenges without quitting back to Main Menu
• Can’t filter Daily Challenges based on what modes you actually play
• Daily Challenges Star requirements don’t align with the time required to complete them
• Daily Challenges for playing Versus on a specific Map promote joining and quitting matches until you get the Map you need
• Items on a Operation’s Tour of Duty will remain exclusive and not come back (The Star requirement for it should double once the Operation is done but stay there for everyone)
• Operation 1 only includes Skins from the Gears 5 campaign or Gears 4
• Operation challenge requirements do not backtrack what you already did before
• Multiple Medals promote playing selfish instead of cooperating, which is made all the more frustrating with randoms
• Bloodsprays, Marks, Banners and Gestures are not desirable unlockables yet make up the majority of what can be acquired
• Very limited in which of the non-store items can be crafted with Scrap
Versus
• Map Voting can still give duplicate Map and Modes, both between the 3 choices and what you just played
• Ranked Objective mods should have Bot backfilling
• All Ranked Modes should have Aim Assist turned OFF
• No dedicated Dodgeball playlist this time around
• Terminator feels like a Gameplay advantage what with having no voice lines, a very dark color and thin silhouette.
• Kill Cam is a lie, unreliable, not always displayed and forcibly skipped
• Flashbangs not having any cooldown, not letting you shoot while blind and being a starter feels excessive.
• Map selection being limited to 7 is downright sad, especially when they could rotate Gears4 maps in
• Previous Starter weapons which are now Power weapons (Enforce & Hammerburst) are weaker or comparable to starting weapons, making them too weak for Power Weapons
Horde & Escape
• Escape starting cutscenes are too long and unskipable.
• No visibility for amount of acts in an Escape Hive
• If you back out of an Escape match right before it starts it’ll still play intro Audio in the background and crash you next time you load into anything
• User created Escape Hives are completely useless with no rewards or progression (outside of 2 easy Achievements)
• Horde wait time between rounds is too long and unskipable
• When someone leaves prematurely their Energy doesn’t get auto-deposited in the Fabricator
• Jack can die out of bounds where allies can’t revive him
• Enemies can get stuck through walls where you can’t damage them but don’t die to let you progress
• No option for shorter Horde matches or themed waves
• Some Horde Perks, like ammo regen, are very weak and not worth the point dump
• Losing a no reset difficulty Escape or Horde match disbands the party of randoms instead of bringing back to Lobby
• Duplicate Hero selection isn’t based on who has the highest level
• There is no level restrictions for matchmaking high difficulty Escape & Horde and you can’t set it in Private
• You can’t select a backup character in case you’re the one randomly chosen to swap your duplicate selection
• Some characters can’t be used in Escape or Horde
• Some characters have Passive and Card abilities that are useless in Horde/Escape
• Rejects & Leeches are very annoying to fight, and their prominence in Horde & Escape frustrates
• Overkill feels very weak in PvE, especially compared to the Gnasher
• You can’t kick or lock slots for Private lobbies you host
• Some weapons never drop from enemies, making them impossible to acquire for characters who can’t buy them
Misc
• There is no in-game information for what each weapon’s Active bonus is (Lancer’s reduces bullet damage lolwut)
• There is no Audio/Visual indicator when trying to fire an empty weapon if you have auto-reload off and spare ammunition left
• The beginner Aim Assist is too strong with no sticky settings, making it impossible to aim at specific spots and goes crazy with fast moving targets
• Bots don’t seem to prioritize picking you up in some situations
• Bots cheat (see & shoot through walls) while not playing like humans (Always hip fire, don’t switch weapons, don’t fail reloads, don’t mark, ect…)
• Can’t hide cosmetic items you don’t want to see Online, nor turn on a vanilla balanced mode to have default characters and skins displayed locally.
• No alternate Announcers.
• No option for Music in Versus and Horde.
• Can’t Hide items to better sort the list outside of the filter
• The Damage red HUD indicator is too extreme and can’t be changed
• Players sometimes spawn as the ‘Silver Surfer’
• Can’t choose to hide non-private matches for certain servers
• Hiding characters and Skins that are ready to drip feed the community and make it feel like the game is supported for a long time (The 3 Rs of Gaming! Recycle! Reuse! Resell!)
Store
• All Store cosmetics are exclusive to the Store and can’t be earned elsewhere
• The entire pricing structure and recycling of content
• Timed exclusive offerings instead of just adding to a growing list of things to buy with rotating rebates

I was going to make some time in the future to play the story mode since so many players talked how good it was, but after reading soooo many comments about how glitchy also is and some people being unable to continue, I decided to forget about it.
So story is broken and multiplayer is even worse than what good is this game for except for making you rage?!!!

My biggest issues:
- the movement is slow and clunky
- the hit detection is broken
- gnahser is only 6 shots and no active
- lack of maps
- not getting characters from just playing. have to pay money or complete horrid tour of duty challenges

Just wasted time replaying two “missing” chapters and still haven’t got credit for the achievement.

It says global though. Unless I hit a bumper then it’s team. And I see the other team type too
I’m glad more people are starting to call it what it is, a beta.

Also not liking how people can sit back and shoot an enemy with a lancer a couple of times and be rewarded a kill. Lobbies don’t fill up . Having to wait 24 hrs for a challenge in the crap tour of duty is bs. So many bugs, lag and pay walls, meat shields are useless. This game is everything I knew it would be “garbage”
How many times have they fixed the Re-up icons now? Add that to the list.

Tour of Duty screen not loading.
Won’t change anything if ppl keep buying cosmetics and keep playing.
Just Go and Play other games for 1-2 weeks maybe something happens then.
And its a shame to push a game so heavily marketing wise and deliver a game in that state.
Then not a single reaction to anything.
Players telling them what is broken, (since tech test)
And well what did we get?
Skins (to buy with real money ofc)
I‘m Not playing since 3 days and i won‘t until this Game is in a better state.
And you shouldn‘t Play it too…

Escape feels pointless. Not enough ammo.
-
Horde is boring and too slow. They need to make it shorter. GOW4 had this problem but at least it was somewhat satisfying (yes, even despite engineer carrying the team).
-
Ranked is unplayable in Europe due to server issues
-
Progression is completely unsatisfying and feels pointless. I don’t think there is a true progression system in place tbh.
-
Not enough maps and design of some cater to camping rather than fast-paced brawls.

Flashbangs, melee range, lancer and gnasher damage, matchmaking - every game is a struggle with how its matching teammates.
Fix ALLLLL that^sh*t and they can have my ‘dallors’…
Make sense?
Or they can trick total f*cking idiots into spending money on iron to reroll challenges to complete the tour before it disappears forever, dumb dumb dummmmmmmb
These are not my words…this is the logic of company higher ups,who don’t care what there selling or if it’s works right or not.just as long as they get a high return on there investment.
