Indeed, everything new they brought in is horrendous. The game is barely recognisable.
I couldn’t care less about the store either.
@Kill_Our_Demonz I know what he’s meaning. I really have no interest in the store, as I said above. it’s not a priority. I’m more concerned about the fact the base game runs as well as a steam train off the rails.
Lol don’t sugar coat it bud 
The amount of sugar coating I’ve done on these forums would be enough to replace the snow on Mt. Everest.
Holy sh*t. This game is so stupid and bugged. Won’t even let me use my preferred characters even though they’re selected. Keeps making me play Mac, even though I only used him for a daily and then switched back to ice Kait. What in the FFFF.
They can’t even get the simple stuff right. They betray the fans, and then can’t even get the mechanics to work properly.
Edit: I just restarted Gears 5, had Ice Kait still selected as my preffered, joined a game, and guess what? I’m still Mac. Sigh
Well, in my opinion, Rod killed Gears 
That’s “Heros!” for you…
Yeah, if heroes were in Versus. This is so ridiculous.
Every justification for the Hero system and every associated ‘problem’ with the GoW4 system I heard TC mention is paper thin and doesn’t survive scrutiny.
You know what they COULD have done? Remove the class system all together! Put all of the skill cards into one pool, and the player would then choose:
Now THAT (!!!) would be “letting players play how they want”, not this limiting hero BS…
That’d be a better idea. Gears 4 did it right, for sure. Unfortunately I dislike Horde/Escape and barely play them. I’m currently having this issue in Versus, which is why I’m getting so frustrated.
But but but but but the weapons are the real characters/classes maaaaan 
This franchise needs cliff back period. He was the heart of this franchise and now that he’s gone look at it…
Limiting character selection was horrible idea and actually gives them more work than they need. Ridiculous.
He had a giant hand in it. And clearly since the devs either don’t give a ■■■■ about the series or aren’t fans of it, they didn’t step up and say “maybe the fans wouldn’t like this.”
No. No he’s not. He would screw up gears just as much as rod did. He’s lost his touch and doesn’t care about the fans anymore.
They made guardian worse. Lol
The CQB nature of Gears, with its gnasher combat, makes it somewhat unique… every other game (CoD, PuBG, Apex, etc) seems to be about killing people from far away, with a quick burst of a rifle like weapon.
They can’t make Gears to be like that without completely destroying the franchise: it will be a different game, just under a Gears name.
They can’t Gears notGearsy enough to make it appeal to CoD people but they CAN make it nonGearsy enough to lose Gears fans (which is what G5 is doing).
So all downside, no upside.
Actually I doubt that, he’d not be in the background as much as Rod is.
Me 2
Like I said look at Gears now…
Gears 5 is the worst of the franchise
My opinion you don’t like it oh well
Gears of War 4 is better than Gears 5 in every way
Where did they get the impression that the community trusted them? I sure as hell didn’t, neither did anyone I know. Which is why we didn’t purchase G5, And boy, isn’t it evident that was the right choice.
