Gears tends to be pretty kind to high ping players. You should be fine.
Amiright @Krylon_Blue?

That might explain why I’ve been doing so well lately! I’m from the UK but playing like a group from the States on US servers, and aside from a couple of losses have been doing pretty well.

Believe it or not you’re wrong, lol.
High ping is a disadvantage. Playing with a 90ms ping on European servers against low pings is difficult. Too many delays to be successful.
The issue, as I am sure you know, is fluctuations. I don’t have many issues when I’m pinging at 30ms killing a 90ms or even 250ms player. But when that ping becomes more inconsistent it becomes unplayable in many ways. Something needs to be done in Gears 5 regarding unstable connections.
Ask @DAVID_THE_CLOWN. He loves his inconsistent WiFi. Why do you think he won’t hard wire?

Try out Gears Ultimate and Gears 4, I think you can get them for some small money now. Sadly, you have to use windows store.
