I use Chrome when having Gears 5 open and did not have this issue, which CPU have you got?
Playing from the UK in a party of friends in the US, so always had game ping 100+ to factor in. Xbox One S console at 1080p output. 180Mbps / 36 Mbps, 0% loss, 1480 MTU, 30ms local latency.
The killcams don’t work very well. Sometimes when it jumps to a killcam it will either cut out, show them missing me completely, or just have people running on the spot or teleporting about with a glitched rifle sound. I don’t know if this is common within the Tech Test at the moment, or if my distance is a big factor in this (resulting in my consoles capture, or recreation or however it’s done, being different to what happened on their own screens) but most people I game with are in the US, so I guess this is what the test is looking for.
Invincible character models sitting/running on the spot (only seems to happen with enemy team characters, and I only ever noticed this with Cog models, but happens on both maps) while normal gameplay resumes around them (targeting these models does not have a red cursor, some fix by themselves and others appear to stay until my character dies). My teammates could not see them as I did, but the models did act as obstacles preventing me from walking through them. https://1drv.ms/v/s!An3aTKnt0xlTkCclwFHbUq3OCzR5
Teleporting or vibrating while stuck on the spot, particularly when running along cover, or downed and crawling, such as moving behind cover then being bungeed back into the open, but sometimes into places you hadn’t even been.
Once I helped a downed teammate up and then immediately climbed over cover, but the character model climbed into the wall, then teleported up and floated down to stand on top of the wall, before stepping down (recorded on Training Grounds to show location). https://1drv.ms/v/s!An3aTKnt0xlTkCVFzfrgMHHE9Udk
Reminded me of the old Gears 1 backflip and could present similar out of bounds problems if players find a way to recreate it near the edge of a map. Witnessed by another player, so wasn’t just some sort of interface lag.
Xbox. Party lobby is super bugged apparently everyone plays solo as I didn’t see anything mentioned about party issues. But the squad leader can’t tell when anyone’s in the squad the members have to inform they are in. Sometimes it works most time does not. Invites error a lot. There is tons more but meh pointless it all won’t be fixed gesrs 4 has issues years later

Maybe Bounties and BOOST added on top?
Bounties and Boost to add to your rank skill points? That doesn’t sound right at all.
It looks like one should be all time or seasonal and one for just this match

Ah I misunderstood it as like match score / points 
This sounds plausible.
Hmm, ok. Thx.
I snapped a quick vid of one of the unkillable bots that sometimes gets spawned as someone leaves/lags out.
Im not certain but it looks to me what TC is going for there.
I was never awarded my Tester Lancer skin after my 5th match win because there was an error and it said the match results couldn’t be reported. The medal shows earned in my Tour but the skin has not unlocked in my customization options. I tried just winning another match and it still didn’t unlock. Could someone tell me how to rectify this issue?
It happened several times. Hope this is not going to be in final game

Im not sure if this is a bug, but im literally completely blind on this kill. Not sure what this Omen means other then please die so you dont wipe more enemies off the map.

Here is a small list of notes I had taken from the weekend.
-
Crawling while DBNO seems to have some major issues in the tech test. Especially if you are in cover while going down. It feels nearly impossible to crawl away, as if your character is glued to the spot they were downed in.
-
When kill cam is turned on, players left on your screen when you die will start to walk into wall, or stand still, despite the fact they are still moving in real time.
*Your bullets will sometimes be blocked by walls or ledges in front of you, even when both the barrel of your gun and the reticle are clear of the wall. -
I can’t tell for sure, but I swear there are a few instances of the bullets going straight down into the ground, when blind firing the Gnasher (similar to Gears 4 beta).
-
The game, bots in particular, does not know what your characters status is after you self revive from DBNO. Multiple occurrences of bot walking up to player and curbstomping them while they are standing.
-
Multiple occurrences ‘shell enemies’, where there appears to be an enemy on your screen, but there really aren’t there, and nobody else can see them.
-
Your character selection in Arcade mode before you spawn doesn’t stick, instead it makes you the character you played as last game.
-
Getting killed by ghost enemies. Getting killed by enemies that are invisible on your screen. Only happened twice, but it is a HUGE problem.
-
Some times frag grenades are silient when they hit the ground. Small brag, but I have great situational awareness in Gears, and I have been killed by grenades I did not hear at all several times in the 3 days I played.

Spawned invisible unable to move
post in the official bug thread
Win both rounds of koth but in the results it appears that I lost the second round, here are the catches
Sorry for the late response but I put all my time into playing yesterday and passed out after haha. The game randomly closes itself, not even a crash with an error. It’s like if you were to close it via task manager it’s just gone. It only happened two or three times and is very rare. Also I keep getting some form of painful audio static when I go back to the main menu for half a second.
PC
Intel i7 3770K CPU @ 3.50 GHz overclocked to 4.5 GHz
24 GB Ram
Nvidia 1070 updated with the latest drivers
I tracked down the error in event viewer and found this twice:

I know the nvidia 1070 cards have that issue in gears 4 but I thought it was fixed? Could it be that? I had to force myself to stop playing gears 4 because of this issue and I no longer have a console to play on. I couldn’t safely host games and couldn’t play long games of horde. Let me know if there is any way to give more info or if there is anything else I can do to help. I grew up playing gears and been here since gears 1 so I will do anything to help.
