Damn bro you seriously uninstalled Gears 5? I’d say you are a pretty big presence here and to see this is pretty surprising.

He resintalled it after @Metal_Gear_Mo pouted.
We won a laggy match 2-1 after losing the first round, oddly enough the other team stopped trash talking.

Worse yet, I think they stealth nerfed the Tri-Shot.

I dont know what the hell TC is doing game felt great for the last week until this update. They keep making stealth changes to the game and every week its a new adjustment period. Im starting to think these guys are completely clueless. The feedback last week was largely positive then they decide to screw around again.

Man so they screwed up the Gnasher once again after it was good for you guys?
They havent admitted to it yet, but it seems like they upped the mid range damage. Im not sure if its intentional or accidental, but its not a small change. It feels like the damage is double at mid range.

Watch how far I down this guy from with 3 shots and second and third shot all the pellets dont even land.
Exact pellet breakdown:
1st shot 10/12 pellets land
2nd shot 5/12 pellets land
3rd shot 9/12 pellets land
Funny, I did the exact thing last night. I am just so tired of the BS with this game. It isnt fun anymore. 6+ months and nothing has changed TC should be embarrassed. I love gears and I’ve never uninstalled a gears game until now. Laggy match after laggy match and registration issues all over the place. This is a AAA title and this is absurd. They are more concerned with making this a campy boring game and punishing those who do not want to sit through a game where you are nothing but a free kill as a result. Just so done with this. Maybe 6 will be different but 5 is done for me.

And it was awful. Simply awful.
It’s in the trash bin where it belongs. Even in a match that’s I did extremely well I had no desire to keep playing. This game truly is the definition of terrible.

Until Mo or I ask you to play with us 
No, it’s still in the trash bin. I love both of you but it’s just not any fun. I’d rather stare at a wall at this point.

Ill play with you guys. I love trash. I hope TC tells us what the hell they did today though. If its intentional or accidental.

Been saying this for years. Titanfall was one of the smoothest online shooters ever made. When I hear people blame server issues on gears I just shake my head. It’s gears issues, not the servers

Thank god I don’t play MP. I always felt that the gnasher was OP and downed you from far away before this update.

One of the smoothest experiences ever. Right up there with Halo and Battlefield in my opinion. Which given that Battlefield has full fledged 64 player battles on large detailed maps that’s no small feat. Gears can’t even figure out this 10 player on small detail maps thing.

Lol feels worse honestly. If they didnt increase the Gnasher damage curve id be honestly shocked.

If they don’t know by now that their game is rubbish and buggy, then they will never know. This thread won’t change it. There has been multiple threads on this subject.
I just don’t see the point really. I didn’t announce to the world I uninstalled Fortnite, or Titanfall 2, or Modern Warfare 2 in the past 2 weeks. Because it doesn’t make a difference.
TC dosent even frequent the forums much. I feel this is more a venting move where the community can discuss and blow off steam. I didnt create a thread but I uninstalled Gears 5 last night. I chimed in on a few of these just conversing with the community over the sad state of the game. It’s a discussion nothing more, nothing less. I would hope the intention of these aren’t along the lines if they think TC comes across it and says oh god! We lost so and so we must take action NOW!

Listen, the reason most of us enjoyed the game last week and can’t stand it this week isn’t because TC changed anything… necessarily.
All video game developers these days put artificial ‘balancing’ into their games to keep players hooked. It’s the belief that if you win too much, you get bored, if you lose too much, you get bored.
Google “forced 50% win rate”. There are thousands of post from other gaming communities talking about win and loss streaks. I read a scholarly article about it, but I can’t find it now. Basically it proved that EA does this, it will force the game to make you lose if you win too much.
I don’t think it’s out of turn for TC to make it so that your Gnasher suddenly does half the damage, or suddenly has more range.
