I’ve hit it on all modes.
Hardest was tdm because I just have a short fuse on that mode now.
Got very campy with the recent changes too. I used to defend people calling tdm campy but I’ve seen people start the match & camp near an enforcer for no reason & keep going back there when they die.
Cool. Thanks for the feedback. Kudos. Even though you may not view that accomplishment as difficult as it was in the past , props nonetheless.
I can’t play TDM anymore for that reason. Just too much camping for my patience to handle. I used to only play TDM but switch to KOH.
in gears 4 i was dia 1 almost every season when i wasnt it was onyx 3 when i got on gears in the first season didnt hav e time to play much but in silver 1-3 felt like high ranks and to put it also winning with mvp got me -1000 points didnt make me want to play then by the end of that season i was onyx 2-3 dont remember then next season started back at bronze starting again lol .but i know what you guys mean by its easy to rank up and its like easy mode in onyx 3 and dia 1 it dont feel the same as it use to .but it can also be that where just better then them and we can make it their easily unlike some people .like the game tries and put us where we belong.
Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like the cause for tdm getting campier is from the “new” rank system. Since you have to pay GP to play, it seem now people have something immediate to lose. On one hand it’s nice because often, I’ve found people are generally less wasteful with their lives, but then on the other hand that sometimes means more camping. It’s not always idle camping, but sometimes it is and that sucks (especially when the other team is up 6 lives and expects you to come to them).
I think more people in the mid-upper ranks are starting to figure out how to play/coordinate without being an actual stack, making it harder to push another team’s position without back up/team effort. That usually causes some lulls in the action to be able to regroup and push.
For better or worse, my experience playing this op has often reminded me of warzone, with a few extra lives.
yup the higher you go the more campy it gets.and also your point on them losing points.
I feel like I’m baby sitting.
If everyone was in a party it be easier to talk it out.
I’d say TDM is the most coordinated mode on the ranked list & depending on random players is frustrating.
King I don’t mind because I spawn infinite times & if I have a bad team I’ll just charge with a gnasher & practice
It did get a lot more campy though.
yea i try and be on mic but when all they do is play music or talk Spanish i cant help them more then my game play and say group up to make them follow me lol.
like how i go 27-3 and still lose lol the match in tdm cuz some guy is 3-15 or 2-20 lmao at least i can brake even or still rank up
That’s why I stopped playing tdm completely.
Tired of being forced to play with people who don’t respect the mode.
Some will just die on purpose just to get another game.
But that how TC made it…
yea i wasnt going to touch it also till one of my friends asked for my help to rank up lol cuz of the way that mode is and that and exe was my fav modes now im on 2v2 or ffa .
The fact that you said you don’t feel like u should be in masters yet you are proves that it’s too easy lol but congrats man
How to get to Masters rank on KOTH:
Sit back with a pistol and take pop shots at the enemy side who your team are shooting.
If the hill is near you then you can hop in it but once you’ve got 5 captures you will want to stay far away from and go back to peppering the enemy team. You can venture closer to the action but remember all it takes is 1 bullet to hit a killed target to get that precious elimination.
no idea what they are thinking with that, yo max points at 5 caps, 10 breaks, 60 elims, then its just winning the round for 500 , there is no incentive to cap the hill now. 5 caps then who cares? just go for elims to reach masters.
you can have a team of golds vs masters but you wont get any more points for beating a masters than you would a bronze… ? that dont make sense ,
the other game i had to carry my team hard… the enemy had 90 - 80-70 -60 elims , my team had 60- 50- 40 elims , n i had 115 elims … thats i had 115 elims my best team mate had 64 elims …
their best player had 10 caps and 90 elims , i had 30 caps and 115 elims , we both had the max gp and tied for top spot … we won 180-177 on the 3rd round …
if they had got the 3 points then the other dude would have got ‘top player’ and all the extra gp for winning the match when i essentially won a 1v3-4 but i wasnt rewarded for it just a gg heres your regular 2k points you get for a standard win , it wasnt worth the try harding but just because im a sore loser i made sure we won.
fair enough i mean i was d4 , never got to d5 even tho i should have… but i just didnt have the connection for it, for example i beat d5’s in most games i played them, beat sas shadowz every time i played him, highest i got to gow 4 d4 98% then had a bad game getting sponged all game n got demoted, i never tried to get d5 , i was just on point a lot,
but point was i was always d4 without grinding ranks , and if you hopped in a party with a few good players then matches were easy , and gow 5 nothing has changed, always getting diamond every season then 1 night the other week i thought to myself i could get masters tonight if i wanted to, did the grind for masters n got it , first time in 2 games i actually tried for top rank , took me about 10 games from diamond 1 , 2 of them were losses, 1 loss i lost like 800 points, the second loss i went up 80 points ,
I think getting to Onyx and Diamond ranks is especially too easy. I see a lot of players who aren’t that good at Diamond or even at Master ranks.
Moving from Gold tier 3 to Onyx and Onyx tier 3 to Diamond should be made harder imo. Either by making the gap longer or by increasing the buy-in cost.
Gears 5 has the most rewarding matchmaking rank system on the market because of how broken it is.
It doesn’t reward skill as much as it rewards those who are able to matchmake with lower competitive players.
You have to make the game skillful first. To get skillful players.
Mic drop
Should change the title of this thread to Masters is the new Onyx tier.
Its going to be even worse with new tunings, more masters bot walkers. nice TC u brainless people killed the gameplay
