yeah I’m hoping for the same @IVIUrKxIvI4N that in OP5 things could get fixed and also more maps could be added…

I think that this describes a lot of what looks like hate or rage here.
People care a lot and when they don’t get it then the frustration gets magnified by their passion.
A lot of people here on the forums have some exceptional ideas and some very valuable insight and would’ve been gone if they didn’t care.

A lot of people here definitely care both deeply and passionately and most of those people get their point across (both positive and critical) with intelligence and respect.
However, passion should never be an excuse for why someone is being volatile and abusive, and in my opinion the constant slamming of the devs and communication teams need to stop, it’s toxic, unproductive, self-centered, and childish.
Criticism and feedback are a lot harder to listen to when you’re being personally attacked in the process (as both an individual and a large company).
So yeah, Gears 5 didn’t have a great launch, it was unfinished, and very buggy, and it definitely felt like the devs were not listening to their core player base at the time.
The new team are (definitely) listening and it’s up to us to be patient but keep giving productive feedback, as not only does the new team need time to settle in but they also have external forces to deal with that the previous leadership didn’t.
Edit: corrected spelling

I agree that people need to remain respectful and constructive.
From what I’ve seen there are some people (many I think are young) that don’t fully understand how to use their words towards a positive outcome. In fact you could lump me into that simply because some of the things I’ve wanted like prioritizing server stability over nerfs - I haven’t always been too understanding when they gave us nerfs and left the servers brittle.
I know that they’re people and that they may have forces beyond their control impacting what and why they do things but in my human fallibility I might just miss the opportunity to state or restate my case constructively.
So like I said - I agree with you that people should never be disrespectful or toxic. Everybody needs to have empathy for the difficult problems being addressed. Everywhere that I’ve failed to heed that though - maybe I can get a nugget of empathy too. I straight up couldn’t see how nerfing STTE was more important than server stability or the chainsaw bug or 20,000 excess score boost cards and I might have been angry then. I may take advantage of Gears being down long term to try and get a life

The less bootlickers, the faster Microsoft takes action to fire those incompetents. In every other Job those who aren’t useful are fired, But keep defending TC.

Not true at all. I’ve had the same incompetent coworker working with me for 2 years. Smells like ■■■■, dumb as hell, no business having a job anywhere but McDonald’s. Yet he’s an electrician. So no, incompetent workers aren’t just fired.

In fact, in today’s market, it’s hard as hell to fire someone.
You’re very right. My theory on why he even still has a job with the company is that skilled blue collar workers are so hard to come by anymore, they’re praying he turns into something. But I knew the guy in high school, and I know he isn’t going to amount to anything but someone for everyone else to yell at, deservedly of course.
Edit: I’m getting off topic. Apologies lol.

That’s usually the case. Upper management thinks it’s cheaper to deal with the person than let them go and risk hiring someone even worse lol
Exactly. Multiple coworkers and myself filed multiple complaints and nothings been done. He missed 2 months of work being an idiot and breaking his wrist by trying to move a stack of 15 pieces of drywall by himself, dropped them, and got his wrist crushed between the drywall and a wooden stud stupidly trying to catch them. Some people just can’t be helped, even though every experienced guy he’s worked with has tried their damndest to teach him.

The funny thing about posts like this is we’ve seen them on Gears 3 forums, Gears 4 forums and now Gears 5 forums. Everything about Gears 3 and 4 was great and they should’ve build on it and not reset everything and go back to square one to “fix gnasher, wall bouncing, lancer, story campaign, PvE”
We’ve been there and done that. We’re tired of waiting for Gears 5 to be as good as Gears 4 when it should’ve been from the start and build upon it. They already have an architect but no builders.

@avaramis I don’t think I’ve ever found you to be disrespectful or toxic, I’ve seen you rightly upset about things but you’ve always come across as someone trying to keep TC accountable and I’ve never seen you be outright hostile.
I completely agree that these servers need to be fixed before anything else should ever be focused on, although I’d really like the chainsaw bug and the score boost exploits dealt with ASAP
@TC_Clown unfortunately for me (and my position on supporting TC) I really like your GamerTag and would be disappointed to not see it around anymore

Thanks, that’s cool. I know I was angry when they nerfed STTE while preserving the chainsaw bug so there was a high risk of me coming across toxic if I didn’t control myself well enough. I’m glad if I didn’t - if I did I would hold myself accountable. No one is perfect but the more we try the better we do; and the more accountable we are the more reasons we have to try
