Gears 5 Tech Test - Official Feedback Thread

I would kill for the hammer burst from gears 3 to return

No! This was a requested feature that was missing in Gears 4, but was present within all previous Gears games!

On a side note, anyone think the male voice for the Swarm sounds like Miles from the New Hope facility?

I don’t know what people are complaining about, this game is freakin awesome, some of the things people complain about isn’t even true, like people can’t get in shotgun range, I’ve been had by the gnasher a few times, and the lancer doesn’t do damage, I does when I use it, people just complaining about shotgun cos that’s all they like to use, don’t listen to people when they say gears 4 is better, they don’t know what they are talking about, gears 5 is awesome and it’s only in tech test, if people don’t like it let them go play something else, you can’t make everyone happy, there will always be one or two to complain about something, don’t change a thing, your doing a good job, I love the game.

Hi all. I writing in italian. Please traslate. Thanks :blush:

Perché avete reso così potenti armi come il Lancer, il markza, l’hunmerbast e la boltok? Adesso addirittura si può fare headshot. Tutto ciò non ha senso. Avete reso GOW un gioco in cui il " corpo a corpo" fra un po’ cesserà di esistere. Lo gnasher da lontano arreca un danno troppo elevato. È completamente senza senso. Dovreste fare qualche passo indietro. Sembra di giocare ad un COD in terza persona. I giocatori si nascondono e sparano solo con il mitra. È diventato molto molto triste.

It would be good if you could bring overrun back, 2 problems I do have with the game is that getting headshot by a sniper when the bullet was nowhere near my head, u can tell by watching replay and also being put in a game that is nearly over

I’m not sure how this feedback process works entirely, as this is my first “beta” test ever. Overall, I’ve enjoyed the change of pace between arcade, KOTH, and Escalation 2.0.

My one concern, however, is the addition of the knife melee. As the series primarily used B for chainsaw, it’s rather confusing to now have to hold RB for chainsaw. Maybe consider using RS click instead? Or allowing players to choose?

We can keep the knife melee - it adds an additional dynamic to the fight. Just as long as original Gears melee style can coexist.

What glitches

Only one person per team should only be set to one character class instead of a whole team as snipers or marcus really only one person should be one class per team not everyone picking the same class more like overwatch or apex legends come on gears get with the times man

Also, just saying, the last major button configuration change didn’t do so well (Judgement - though a great game in hindsight)

I played this game from gow 1, the matches when you play against pc are the worst. And btw, the pc players have advantages in some graphics options, like the camera or the fps. Anyways is so easy give the option to play or nah vs pc players , is ridiculous for me. At least my experience vs pc at gow 4 was terrible, All the pc guys are so spongy and literally always kill me with 1-2 shots don´t care about the distance. That´s obviously not their fault, but this netcode is so bad for a crossplay.

please remove the arabic language from the game or fix it. i have tried to play the game on pc but i can’t read any word and i don’t know how to change it to english (my original language is arabic)

You wanna make GEARS 5 good? Have some of the guys who worked on GEARS 3 be in charge of damage registration & hit boxes. Or it’s gonna be just as broken as GEARS 4.
The guys who made GEARS 3 actually knew what they were doing as far as gameplay.

As a Gears 4 player on Xbox since launch until a month ago I can’t agree with this. I switched to PC a month ago and sponging didn’t change in any way for me as a player. It’s a placebo if you think so. But I’m not gonna argue it - you’re able to have opinions.

The games feels good hope the game doesn’t have any delays with the movements, I’m having issues with the alternative control, the character is not running everytime I press cover and then X, also it is gets buggy most of time and I keep running even without pressing the button. By the way remember that you need to fix the alternative control when we are in cover, I want to jump with the X not the A please fix that because it is annoying jump when I’m just pressing A for cover.

Why did you make such powerful weapons as the Lancer, the markza, the hunmerbast and the boltok? Now you can even headshot. This makes no sense. You have made GOW a game in which the “melee” will soon cease to exist. The gnasher causes too much damage from afar. It is completely meaningless. You should take a few steps back. It seems to play a third-person COD. The players hide and shoot only with the machine gun. It has become very very sad.

I´m from Spain, probably our serves maybe are worse or whatever, but I can see a clear difference . Thanks for the chat.

I have the same problem, it´s a n old fail that appears on Gow UE also, is so frustrating, because you can change your movement like the default players.

The amount of LEAVERS is insane ruining our matches

I suggest next week give to the players 5 D/C per day, reseting at 12 am est-time.

Gears 5 beta need players are SERIOUS about play&test not casuals RAGE-QUIT on the moment they are losing the match

Please change the way the chainsaw is used it doesnt feel natural or work correctly placed on the reload button. Chainsaw being attached to the normal mele button the B button is what’s natural and what it’s always been. That way you can tap it to stab or hold to use the chainsaw. It’s very frustrating to try and use the chainsaw but am denied because I’m out of ammo and it forces a reload.

Maps sound like they have zero atmosphere… no background noise, sound effects … nothing for the two tech test maps.

I noticed this in Gears 4 too… background atmosphere is so quiet it feels like we’re playing in a flippin library most times.

Anyone else feel the same way?
