where do you live? This is late for Gears my guy, try much earlier.
I do suspect the playlist will drop significantly over time, but it should have a healthy population for about a week or so, I’m hoping this becomes a watershed moment for the Gears community, but whatever we’ll see.
Hi mate. UK 
gave up at 15 mins. Will try later this afternoon or evening 
Majority of the games are unbalanced, I always find myself with another buddy versus 3-4 people (and they’re toxic asf).
+1 . The look and feel reminds me of Gears 1 active reload. back to basics 
I’m currently testing the playlist,
Aiming:
Active reload
GameType:
. More enjoyable
I’m from the UK and played for an hour or so last night and I’ve got to say it felt times better.
The movement was nice from just rhoadie running to sliding into cover and actually having the camera fall to the correct hand side of where ever i slid to cover whether that be left hand or right hand side.
The lancer, when i did use felt more realistic in terms of how much more effort i had to put in to get my shots off and it no longer feels like the hammer of dawn even when used against me lol
The active been took back to og is a plus, just need to revert my muscle memory back to og lol
The gnasher felt brilliant and far more responsive. I’m now hitting more of my shots and the up a and back a feels like it actually works now. If the gnasher stays like this then 8 shots has my nod of approval because I’ve said all along that no matter what you can put 8 shots back into the gnasher all day long but if the mechanics are still broken from movem to ghost shots to netcode counting me as not straffing 1 way or the other then youve got 8shots of nothing.
The only thing about last night was the pings was really bad and tonight was the 1st time i can say i could physically see it (the lag) i would see people i shot with gnasher die a good second after or i would see people teleport from 1 place to another like goku hyperporting 
but at the moment im putting it down to the servers being overloaded times by the fact that just like every new change there’s bugs.
Perhaps putting a server client in the uk would help things MASSIVELY for us here and in turn the WORLD
I think thats just down to the lag because it was same for me too.
I mean its Gears 5 afterall 
I think people are trying to bring their friends into the playlist, I know I did, even though it was pubstomping my goal was to try and find good competition to test the changes, its kinda inherently unbalanced, which is sad as it basically makes the playlist look awful but high level players in particular really like to see how it works competitively.
I dont really see a solution, just stating what I think about it.
…It’s not detailed : “The team has a list of planned changes they want to make to Gears 5. Whether it’s adjusting weapon & movement tuning to tweaking existing modes to testing out new features, there is a lot we want to do to improve how Gears 5 plays.”
Or if not, there is only ADHESION DELETION and ACTIVE RECHARGE for now …
I know right.
Today I found a “”“skilled”"" player with 300 of ping who loved teabag me (without a reason, I never teabag anyone) in a match where I was alone versus 4 people. After a couple of unbalanced matches, I got a full team with a lovely MVP.
After two wins , I said: “whoops, you aren’t as “good” as you thought you were, right?”
Really satisfying (yeah, I teabagged him as well).
Chill out guys, this is a thread for constructive feedback, not a jerry spingfield show 
I think so 
It’s a good reminder that connection is really important in this game .
Still I saw more people missing me in general, proof that aim assist helped a lot .
Especially against the lancer, I can move freely and get the kill
Exactly. It felt pretty much like gears 2 (not fully in a bad way lol) when we had host advantage and not dedicated servers (or so TC claims we do )
Question is the aim assist disabled or is it the adhesion removed? Or are the two the same? I play with assist off and Gnasher feels better, the movement feels better also alot less accidental rolling. Seems like the cool down been played with I can cancel bounce but I also complete the slide more movement just feels different this by no means is in a bad way.
Why do they want to change the reload mechanic? What was wrong with it? Change for the sake of change is not worth it. Seems like they want to make the lancer more OP, and bringing back flash bangs too. I’m just not a fan. Just more steps backwards.
The whole aiming divide is also silly. You have to get used to and be accurate with the aiming. Period. Changing the aiming mechanics at this point just doesn’t make sense to me. Please TC, make some changes that will actually benefit the game. Content, and creative changes to game modes to make them more fun. Changing the mechanics every update? Really? Please try to improve the gnasher responsiveness instead. Pulling the trigger with no shot coming out. Happens too often. Can’t back A off certain covers.
the changes are fantastic !!!
the active reload its perfect, that’s how it was supposed to be from the beginning , the gnasher feels great.
it would be great these changes to be added into horde , as well as adding more enemy variety , more maps or in either case a horde map editor.
ONE SUGGESTION: To lower the recoil in the lancer and increase the rate of fire of the gun… that would really rock !!
Congratulations TC, excellent changes on the developers playlist !!! a big hit.
The game has become much more honest.
How will this affect the KB/M players? They will probably find it even easier to play against normal players =/
Here’s some feed back , just take aim assist off altogether , it’s a level playing field then !
Definitely feels a lot better but I’m able to notice when I’m fighting stacks a lot more than before. Which is whatever, I just wish solo players weren’t screwed over so much
it has the same feel of Gears of War 3… I hate the originla reload system they implemented , this new one its way more better… feels like original gears of war !!
they should learn how to play gears " a la gears 3 " hahahaha
