Yeah? But it changes from blindfire to hard aim/pop shot?
i use pop shots a lot in gears 4 but in this game it seems it does more damage to blindfire mostly getting 2 hit downs rather than 3 with pop shotting idk something seems off
Yeah i dunno. But i know within about 5ft the damage range is 50% up to 100% at point blank. But it drops off rapidly. I dont find it much different than the Core Shotgun from Gears 4 until outside that range. Where then Gears 5 shotgun does very little damage.
What is my main worry is ping I currently have a ping of between 20 and 30. Anyone running a higher ping say 50 does more damage and takes more damage. If you can get your ping to run at 50 you will be immortal in no time😂 just like gears 4. Region selection must be made available
I have been extremely disappointed with what has been done to Gears.
- Inverted Omen- completely blinds you…I have never had issues in the past Gears games, but this new edition is a total “misfire” and does not work.
-Movement- I have a good connection and good controllers, but the movement is unpredictable and clunky…another misstep.
-Sounds- Many seem off, the one which sticks out to me the most is the sound of the Lancer. It sounds like a pellet gun, and has really lost its feel of a badass assault rifle. It sounds and feels weightless.
-knife melee- should have been left home…doesn’t work at all. It feels so out of place in Gears that I don’t have more to say on it.
I’m trying to wrap my head around how Gears has regressed sooo badly in one installment…Gears 4 was amazing…this game we have now…wow…I don’t get it…very, very disappointing.
The conclusion that I have come up with is that MS has the core guys from the coalition working on either a new I.P. or the next installment of Gears for next gen consoles. Due to this, the coalition went and hired a bunch of devs that worked at People Can Fly who worked on Judgement. Because this Gears is Judgement 2.
On the positive- I really like the loadout screens and character selection screens as well…very well done.

I feel things like to do an execution or picking up your downed teammates is not fluid enough needs to be sharpened
I sadly did cancel mine…

I ran into an issue in Arcade where I was u able to bring the “purchase gun” menu up. Fortunately I knew what gun was where so I could hit “Y”, and select the gun through the invisible menu. I don’t know what triggered it, but starting a new match didn’t fix it.
I’ve also experienced that
I’m absolutely in love with gears 5 right now however there are some things that I think would make me marry gears 5. I’ll list them and go in-depth after, For arcade headshots should be toned down a tad because they seem wayyy too strong, I suggest more health overall or a lower multiplier on headshots (I prefer the prior) and when the weapons say random the up one should only be for pistols and grenades and left and right should be everything else and at times it doesn’t feel random I get the same thing 3 to 4 times in a row. As for the overall game, the flashbang should last longer kinda similar to the stun the smoke used to provide. Aside from these things I feel will benefit the game the product you have created is fantastic and I can’t wait to get my hands on it all.
The boot up intro seems much longer than any other gears. Maybe add some hd effects for better esthetics. The brightness adjust at startup and menu settings are very slow to respond when adjusting. The boot camp training needs to be an option for more seasoned players. For new players the boot camp training could be a much faster process with less talking from Baird. Now to versus. I feel that way too many things have been changed from previous games. The sounds from the swarm are pretty annoying, the reaction time from running to shooting is super slow, arcade is fun but there should still be a normal quick play option, the gear cog hurt indicator has waaay too much going on and could definitely be toned down so you can still see when injured, the wall bounce seems much more clunky with less range, movement in general feels less responsive, when dead pressing select should show stats only and another button should pull up the map, swarm character options could definitely use a makeover. Overall it’s a fun game with some minor details I feel should be looked into. Can’t wait for the release
What about academy that was my fav on gears 3
Everything about GOW4 is better than gears5 imo.
The main points you need to work on is the movement, atm it feels so slow and sluggish compared to gow4 atleast make it a little bit faster.
And the ranking system seems terrible compared to gow4 if it continues to stay the way it is i wont have any hunger to play after a period of time.

11 shots for the Gnasher sounds outrageous. I like the six honestly more power per shot. Use them wisely. At Mac u have 5 opponents quit missing or dieIn the middle
Please stop listening to COD fans, this is GEARS OF WAR NOT COD!

- Please give the Swarm some boots. their Turtle feet look like baby feets.
- The Breaker Mace doesnt look very dangerous tho. Fear factor is like = What is this honey crystal stick???
- The Claw Lightmashine Gun (CLG) has a weak execution animation. I think its better when the body gets cut in half instead of exploding when pulling the spikes out.

I’m just gonna give my brutally honest opinions and whether or not you agree we can talk about it below. Gears 5 thus far is an okay Gears experience but in all honesty you can tell they spit in the face of true Gears fans to provide a game more accessible to Esports scrubs and noobies. I play A LOT of Gears it’s honestly my main game to play and this just feels wrong. From adding hit Markers and Killcams, Change in the Gnasher shell capacity as well as its damage, to the downgraded movements when compared to Gears 4 cause wall bouncing is a tragedy in this game. I feel like I’m playing third person CoD and that’s exactly what Gears Judgment was and we all know about Judgment🤦♂️. Even escalation took a turn for the worse with the new Escalation 2.0 that’s in all honesty boring as someone who loved Gears 4 Escalation but once again these are just my opinions.Theyve added all these things in the hope itll bring new fans but it’s honestly at the cost of their original fans. SOMETIMES LESS IS MORE… But I digress. Just wish they would stop catering to the opinions of Esports players and catered to the people who actually play the game for fun.

I’m truly baffled as why this game takes 1 step forward and two steps back on every release of the game.
Gears 1 was never meant to have multiplayer but it turned out to be one of the best games online at the time for the massive learning curve and skill required to play at such a speed. The players made the game online how it was.
Rod Fergusson and a few others unhappy with that then made the abomination called Gears 2. They tried to make it a tactical shooter. They slowed down the game play. Added in delays to shooting and started aiding casual players.
Gears 3 was close to Gears 1. They added weapons for casuals which most players whined about but it was a back to how I and others remembered Gears of war.
Gears Judgement. Epic games having lost cliffy B decided they wanted the next Call of Duty. Profits before gameplay and they even asked so called professional gamers to help with the online part. Game was an utter mess and ■■■■■■■■ and it flopped bigtime.
Gears 4 - delays back in the game but it wasn’t too bad other then people with poor pings getting aided which then led them to believe they had some superior skill level lol.
Gears 5 tech test… Slowed down gameplay yet again. Delays added in and once again Rod Fergusson wants his tactical shooter. You never learn. Gears campaign sure let’s have the tactical shooter. Gears online I want the no ■■■■■■■■ fast paced game with no delays in shooting. Stop dumbing the game down to create something true gears players will never do in a gears game. They ain’t going to sit back going pew pew pew. It’s not happening!
We ain’t professionals who want to sit back and camp because prize money is at stake. We want to run in and have the battles we used to on Gears 1 and 3. I want the learning curve. I don’t want to be aided in game because I don’t have time to play it all day. I should be punished how I was on Gears 1 until I took the time to get better.
I personally won’t be buying the game for online. I’m not even sure I’ll bother buying it for campaign if the training part is anything to go by. I personally think online is ruined yet again. It feels like Gears of war 2 (2.0 edition )
People can flame me all they want it’s my opinion and I’m entitled to say it.
Have a good day folks.

First things first that omen when youre almost dead is completely obnoxious, at least give an option to turn it off.
In arcade it’s just nothing but riffles shooting and it’s really not fun, it would be nice if the gnasher was just also a starting weapon so you’re not forced to only using a riffle until you rack up enough skulls to use a fun weapon.
