Gears 5 Tech Test - Bug Reports

Gears 5
#8

Here’s a few:

  • After dying, everybody either stays still, or moves in one direction. Only happens if a killcam is loading.
  • Killcam doesn’t always show.
  • Going DBNO seems to make you glitch/stutter. Can’t crawl at times, usually for the first few seconds.
  • Can’t interrupt an enemy chainsawing your teammate with your own chainsaw.
  • Some players seem to just run in place, facing a wall. Similar to what you’d see when you disconnect in Gears 4.
  • The issue with the character select in Arcade mode stuck on loading seems to be fixed, at least for me.
  • This happened to my sister. Don’t even know how to describe it. https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/pebbles228/video/77336219

All I can think of at the top of my head.

The tech test is awesome, looks epic, feels smooth and plays great, I’m having a lot of fun. The only gripe I have is with the inverse omen, it’s too off putting, once you take some damage your peripheral vision is greatly impaired.

Maybe make the red far more transparent or revert back to the og omen.

Other than that gears 5 is a huge improvement on 4.

Placement matches aren’t working, I know the servers are the main concern at this point but would still be cool to see everyone get a rank and play. Randomly get kicked from games and can’t join back all the time. Main menu music stops playing, sometimes after you kill someone they just kinda stand there or walk into a wall, can’t seem to get iron or get anymore challenges to do/tour of duty and games aren’t counting for the gnasher skin. BUT THE GAME IS PERFECT DONT CHANGE IT

#11

probably already reported but xp errors, bodies still showing in game, when picking up enemies and dropping they still show as attached to you

#12

Where Is Alternate tournament scheme control ? I Need this for play plz

Hi this is not really a bug but I feel like some other people may have done the same as me.

On the tutorial for perfect reload the image freezes once you hit reload and you need to press it again to continue ,but honestly I thought the game had crashed so I reset the game,only to find it did it again after pressing all the top buttons the sound and animations started again. It just felt a little odd that’s all.

When roadie running I can’t reload at times? My controller isn’t messed up and I encounter this issue often

#16

XBOX ONE S

The game is still freezing after 4-6 minutes of doing anything for me. I can find a match and itll freeze, ill stand at the options menu, itll freeze.

I loaded up other games and they work just fine.

PLEASE FIX THE FREEZING ISSUES

On PC the scroll wheel does not work!!
I cannot switch weapons with scroll wheel even if i change scroll wheel to a different key in my mouse software then bind that in gears 5.
Keybinding options recognise it but the game does not!

I need this as i play all my games with weapon 1 as scroll up and weapon 2 as scroll down.

  • In Bootcamp you can find two roadie run animations are existed. The new one and the old one from Gears4. The new one is active when no enemies on the locaton, the old one is active when enemies are near you. The old one animations need to go, the new one need to stay.

I have see one player take a swarm as a shield. The COG player continue the game, BUT : the swarm character was dead, standing up, didn’t disappear… he was stay here, without moves, in the shield position, alone in the air, all the rest of time during the game.

It was yesterday, in Arcade mode on training camp map.

-Servers starting to lag similarly to Gears 4 giving one side a huge advantage, Kill cams in such games are visually inaccurate which confirms this.

-Some kill cams cut early prior to your death, Others don’t show.

-Kill cams skip half a second as they start

(Last night; US east) Tried joining an arcade match. Backed out after a few minutes, and decided to try to join a KoTh match. Game said match found; when it loaded I was put into an arcade match. Backed out after lobby didn’t roll; instead of the main menu, it placed me in escalation matchmaking.

Xbox X here

  • players walking around into walls that can’t be damaged? I guess either they lagged out or the server went nuts. But it still shows the player alive and walking aimlessly. Can’t kill them either.

  • can’t change character sometimes in arcade.

  • sounds not syncing with animations sometimes.

  • huge frame drops and screen tearing.

  • lots of server errors when starting matches and ending matches and trying to collect data.

  • when starting a new match in the lobby it takes sometimes 5 whole minutes to load in bots. I think it’s having trouble loading bots and adding players that join in resulting in long wait times.

X1X too here, 20ms average, EU servers :

. Hit registration problems with gnasher and lancer :

  • enemy not hit apparently
  • no % indicators when I am dead
  • I am not even shooting on killcam, or it shows I missed although on my screen I shot right on my opponent but no blood came out.

I play on Xbox. And when I went to execute someone and I started the animation my teammate killed the enemy and I was stuck in the animation but I could walk around but not shoot or aim.

  • Sometimes killed characters just stand and you can’t kill them or damage (the player respawns, but his character is still at the place where he was killed and it can’t be damaged/killed)
  • HUD error : if you’re downed but not killed and the match ends (not the round), the button to get up won’t disappear until the results of the match are shown
#26

Got stuck in spawn near tri-shot on Training ground for about 1 minute, left hand side of tri shot. Could not move but could look. Cleared when i got killed
Edit - happened again
and again on District but nobody is coming to kill me so just stuck. Teammates probably think i am Afk,
It may be coincidence but this only started happening when using Kill Cam, since turning it off hasn’t happened.

#27

Bugs encountered on Day1:

•Hollow bodies. After death, bodies are left standing or in some form looking as if they’re still alive.

•Bullet lags. Ive seen kill cams where even on cam, the player isn’t directly pointing at me but rather behind me (most of the time this seems to happen with ppl using low sensitivity and came as fast onto me) and im taking heavy damage if not killed.

•randomly kicked from a lobby once match is created and map is loading

•kicked to title menu when “idle” for merely a few seconds

•issues when action rolling, if too close to a corner, character will get stuck or have a pull back lag.
