Just put it back to normal. No game has ever been able to effectively separate players based on skill, it just is what it is. The whole point of having ranked tdm is to have proper 5v5 teams where everyone will at least try. Now it’s drop in drop out 5v2 4v3 5v1, everyone is afk, 10 people leave and join before the end of a match. For every step forward you take 10 steps back.

Chill…
I agree with tdm being set normally.
But I disagree with wall bouncing being a glitch.
It’s simple to apply.
Wall bouncing has always been since the first gears so it’s not something new …
If you can’t wall bounce in pvp you’re cooked.
Like going into a fight & not jabbing.

Seriously TC, have you not received enough complaints about how bad casual TDM is and that we don’t care for the changes you’re making. I play with more than 2 friends in a party and casual lobbies are always uneven. Just release your crap so we can tell you it sucks like every other change you make for god knows what reason and you can change it back to something resembling classic gears. From now on just throw out a survey before making a change or something because everything you guys have implemented has been universally despised by the fans.

What time is this happening? It’s August 25th and the update still isn’t out
The update doesn’t come out as soon as hits one minute past midnight.
Most updates happen around 10AM TC time, Its 7am TC time currently.
Edit: Sometimes it can take a small amount of time to push the update out too, so I would expect at some point in the next 3-4 hours.

God damn, I’ve mainly been playing KOTH and haven’t touched TDM at all until now since op4
Finally played my first game
All I gotta say it’s good to be back.
It’s usual problems are still there, that one garbage teammate who dies and wastes lives, Camp heavy even more now with the inclusion of 4 players. Spamming of power weapons.
But ■■■■, playing at my own pace, nothing beats that.
With stacks pretty much dead I’m having a blast so far.
Well, so far I’ve stopped playing altogether because me and my friends got tired of KOTH and we can’t rank with TDM anymore… I honestly don’t get what people were complaining about if the throwing and spawn camping is still the same issue… I mean, it’s not team deathmatch anymore but a pumped up wingman at this point

Just really confused about why I have to be a level 30 to play with others. This doesn’t make any sense to me. Why wouldn’t I be able to play 3 player TDM? I can play king of the hill with 3 friends but not team deathmatch? I’ve been a propaganda model for epic games telling everyone to get this game and now I’m a jackass cause we can’t run 5’s now.
Also while I’m here I gotta say whoever came up with the idea to eliminate 4 player campaign and make it 3, and the 3rd player having to be a robot—was actually an idiot
Games can run 8-player squads. Epic Games is supposed to be better than this. Lmao. What a joke

Exactly… should’ve made it an option to be jack … I don’t play to be a bot… but if you like that cool.
I’m so exhausted as to why they do what they do…
I’m gonna have trust issues on 6… might even lose me before then.
Hi time-traveler.
Epic doesn’t own Gears bro
This is my first time ever posting here. I am kind of upset that they took away the TEAM component of TEAM deathmatch. Why would i want to play a duo TEAM deathmatch when I used to play with squads of 3-4 or even 5 people. Now I am stuck playing a duo style of TEAM deathmatch. Most of my friends stopped playing the game after they made the team limit of 2. It’s just me and my other friend now and we get matched up with 2 other teammates that are below our skill for 3/4 matches. It doesn’t help when one guy goes 3-12… and his friend goes 8-11.
People should know that if you are playing ranked, then you are bound to meet up with stacked teams. I don’t think they should have ever removed squads of 3-4 from competitive play (RANKED), but then left it on casual play (Quickmatch). It makes no sense.
This post will definitely not make a difference, but whatever… It makes me feel better.
