Just had this. A player who was not looking my direction shot. Live the player was not looking. In the kill cam they were not looking either. Bullet came out of the side of the longshot.
I also got 2 point blank gnasher, full hits, for 96%. The player hits me once for 100%. Match went well and we won. I only died 5 times. Hell, the max ping in the match was 40. Mine was between 8-11. It was smooth. But you could feel it was off. I put a full mag into a player and they ran away. I was active shots. The reload and another enemy comes in. And goes down instantly. Barely shot. 10-11 hits was it. There is something server side or something. I things it is coding. Gears 4 did this a lot.
Rank was also a mess in 4. Literally we won and won and won. 10 straight in Arms Race. And I moves up none. Was MVP 4 times. Had the best k/d 8 times. And overall did great. Never moved and we beat diamond and onyx. My son moved through Onyx and to Diamond. Played great overall. But no better than I did. And did actually have a couple of really bad matches.
And I actually ranked down. We played and I was MVP and we lost. Then we won. And then we lost again and I was second to a player on the other team by less than 100 points. My son wanted Diamond 5. Oddly I had already been ranking down doing well. Next day I jump on. Other team was 2 Diamond, 2 Onyx, and a Gold. I was Onyx 1, 2 Gold, and 2 silver. I went 34-1. Now, when I loaded on I was still Onyx 1. And really should have been higher. After this match I dropped to Gold 3. How I dropped after that is crazy. And then my son jumps on and we win 3 straight together. I never went up. I do not care about rank but you see your rank when you are waiting. And I could understand some being very upset about ■■■■ like that.

I’ve been having an awful time in Multiplayer. I don’t for the life of me understand how if I use a lancer at a farther distance the gnashes hits me just as hard and I’m dead in 3 shots from a farther distance. It’s brutal. Not to mention everyone who runs around the map shotgunning. The game is supposed to be about cover and tactical mechanics, not about running around using just the gnasher. Somehow my KD ratio has become so low and yet I get good amount of kills and I feel less deaths but the game says not. Never understood how all things being equal in a fight I lose with the same amount of shots and distance. I just don’t get how these deva create multiplayer games. I mean it’s as broken as halo 5 is still. I’m not good and I’m in bronze but no one in bronze should be racking up 30 plus kills easily if all things are equal. This is why I hate multiplayer in games. So uneven. It’s like sports you don’t get the top guys playing f amateurs. Maybe it would be more fun with a squad. Anyone wanna help me out?

I took a break 3 weeks ago just hopped on did they buff the lancer in Arcade MP im dying consistently in 6-7 hits like wtf 3 week ago it was 6 headshots= kill 10-11 hits with body shots
I mean i thought it needed a tiny buff in ranked but it was already pretty op in Arcade wich i liked just hopping on now after letting a few weeks go buy it seems like it got a buff
If they completely removed or Nerf the aim assist lancer might be fine.

I agree, the sniper is largely inconsistent. I’ve scoped people dead center and have missed the head shot yet I’ve seen on kill cams when I’ve been sniped that the sight happened to touch somewhere near me and awarded them a headshot. I’ve seen such inconsistencies with Boltok even when I have been using it I’ve shot someone in the chest and got the headshot in the heat of battle I am not complaining obviously but I know the frustration on that players end because I have been on both sides of this.
@KillerKong06 the tactical portion of this game has always been there not from a Tom Clancy game caliber but it has been useful however I never use cover unless I am under heavy fire and need a second to think of my next move. However any of times I am still hit behind cover when an enemy is standing on level ground and there is no way they are actually hitting me. You add in the aim assist with the gnasher and those close quarter encounters are largely skewed and invalidate the purpose of cover all together. Not to mention the raining of flash bangs which force you out as you get gunned down in a yellow screen where you are unable to do anything except roll. Gnasher has always been a staple of gears and while I understand not everyone likes that style of play it is kind of what separated gears from other shooters, was that fast paced adrenaline rush of a gnasher battle. Of course other weapons should come into play but gnasher should still be a viable option. The cover shooting and holding behind walls waiting for someone to come around the corner is very anti climactic
@xxxGAUNTLETxxx I agree, something has to go I am not sure which but something needs to go.

I turned my kill cam off after TC said it wasn’t accurate. What we see isn’t what happens, so why even look at it. Plus I wanna see who’s trying to clown after I get killed.

Turned mine off as well as well as almost every option I could toggle to off.
I didn’t realise it you turn it off the “kill cam” works like it does in Gears 4. So my no-no’s are not going to waste

I dont like the idea, that the Arcade mode has no playtime to show off…Realy? I´m playing a lot of arcade mode, but my “Versus stats” showing me 0h and only ranked games count the playtime. It is annoying.

That is really Odd. Hopefully its just a UI bug and they are tracking that data on the backend for you and they just need to patch the issue.

TDM is about the only one. I would love to get KOTH games
Two tidbits:
Don’t know why the lancer feels overpowered but it still downs in 11 hits. Wish I recorded it but I lit someone up with an active reloaded magazine and somehow did not down them within 11 hits. Issue with bullet registration.
Second, to all the people who say “there’s too much complaining idk what’s wrong”, the like ratio of the posts that bring up issues about the game have been higher than I’ve ever seen before. It’s not just placebo. Somethings are very off about this game and it would do everyone good to be open minded about what can be done to improve the game. Especially how the gnasher can do damage in the high 90 percents and lets your target eat the shot while they shoot you from the same distance and angle and they kill you in one round. This happens way too often for it to simply be lack of player skill.

I think maybe a lot of problems even with the lancer are hit detection. I’ve been run up on myself as well and blown away while I emptied an active reload clip into someone the. Other times they almost instantly fall. Hit detection may be throwing off all balance adjustments to begin with. However team lancers is an issue. I think it should be more of a suppressive fire weapon than a go to honestly but that is my opinion. You brought up some great points which is why I wanted to have a discussion about this. Hopefully someone from TC sees this and is able to address even if they dont give a direct response atleast they have an idea of where problems may lie.
Mulcher/buzz saw underpowered?
Loosing a 1 VS 1 with the Mulcher against a lancer player?
Wth this ain’t true at ALL

Not so much under powered on thier own opposed to the lancers incredibly quick TTK it leaves them under powered as you are at a disadvantage. Also yes it is true because it happened. You are welcome to disagree with my viewpoints however I think there are clearly issues here.
KOTH seems fairly active at the weekend. I’m in the UK but I gotta switch between US East & West to find matches as EU is always dead.
MP is so frustrating and disappointing so far.
Hit detection drive me crazy. Is it me or the bullets are slightly left from the gun ? I can’t get used to it
Yesterday I even go back to gears 4 for a few games, hit detection was better and consistant which says it all.

I love multiplayer, the only issue ive really had worth complaining about is sometimes my gnasher wont fire when i pull the trigger, happens once or twice every handful of matches. Everything else seems nice and smooth, not sure how they are catoring to new/casual players, ive had zero problems flying through newbies.
Nice one. I will try and get on at some point in the coming evenings
