Dana confirms on Twitter that the Gnasher is broken

Gears 5
#1

Anybody with a brain could tell already that this new tuning is completely busted but Dana confirmed it. Clearly the dev playlist tuning was rolled out too quickly, and I personally have not seen all of the “overwhelmingly positive” feedback they say they’ve gotten. It seems like most people hate the slower movement and the new gnasher is actually more inconsistent than it was before.

There’s a lesson to be learned here TC. Similar to Gears 5 as a whole, this tuning was rolled out with the “release now and fix over time” mentality which is the completely wrong way to go about it. Make sure things WORK PROPERLY before releasing them and we won’t continue to have issues like this. We’re a year into the game and we still have a busted shotgun, that itself says enough.

This has been confirmed multiple times. It was confirmed on the last dev stream as well

In terms of what? All the weird ghost shots, and shots not registering?

I didn’t watch the stream.

I believe it’s a hit registration issue on opponents that are sliding.

It’s amazing that a triple-A game is so mediocre from a technical point of view, even coming from Microsoft standards.
TC has normalized to have bugs in gears and they do not take the importance it deserves. they should be ashamed.

The assistance makes the game feel stiff, the movements are not free and when the camera recognizes a target it makes moving difficult and the movement feels stiff, apart from the fact that it does not take much skill, it is only to understand how it works and making a kill becomes something easy but at the same time unsatisfactory, in return I played taking away the assistance and the game feels much better, I feel the movement more fluid, although aiming is more difficult it feels more satisfactory when kills are made it feels It really takes skill, so I think that many of these problems in this game would disappear by removing the assist but the studio is very negligent in doing something like this, I feel that the movement feels good like that but the aim assist should be removed and play without aim assist and you will see how the game feels differently

This Gnasher has felt great in some areas but others it’s felt poor. The worst is when high pings are present but it happens at times regardless of that.

Up+A doesn’t work half the time because bullets don’t even come out. Given the update was supposed to bring consistency to this it was easy to tell that the Gnasher has issues in every situation.

They’re destroying their fan base at the moment. The matchmaking in this game is an absolute joke. MS execs should bang some heads together, they don’t need this level of incompetence from one of their lead developers, especially with a new console launch round the corner

“A known tuning experience.”

That is very embarrassing.

I’m glad there is an issue with it because i haven’t been able to use it since this new tuning nothing it does makes sense, at least I could get kills consistently previously now I don’t know where my shots are going

I mostly play pve, so I’m far from an expert on how the gnasher works in pvp. This is just what I remember hearing.

I hope it gets fixed for the people who play pvp though.

It’s not just the gnasher. Its the lancer as well. Something is screwing with the game badly.

So let me get this straight…

We are almost a year into this turd’s life…

There have been how many patches / updates / weapons tunings…

And the game is still broken and plays like ■■■…

The inCompetents indeed.

Sorry, The GREEDY inCompetents indeed.

The trainwreck that just keeps on giving.

What an absolute disgrace TC are. What a joke they have made this great series become.

Let’s remember the amount of tuning we when through on Gears 4 before it settled into a decent game. I’ve adjusted the reaction time on my Elite controller and that has helped slightly with the slower movement but there are still cases which I hadn’t experienced before of the gnasher not firing. I played a game last night in harbour where I couldn’t get a shot off anywhere near as fast as anyone else and at some point it felt as if I was teleporting during gameplay. My Xbox is port forwarded on a wired connection through a gaming router so I know my connection wasn’t the issue. We’ll get there with a tuning that will work with little or no bugs but it’s going to take time unfortunately.
