OMG… Are you F kidding me? The weapon changes take FOREVER…
I tried this new tuning in a private against bots last night…
Slow slide speed
Hip fire gib range seems HUGE
that was enough for me to say “nope, this doesn’t make me want to go back to versus/ranked”
YMMV

Any clue on when this beta tuning will be made official? Ranked is unenjoyable right now with current tuning and ranking system as is. At least with new tuning it won’t be as bad.

Hopefully soon. I’ll be playing the beta tuning only until it goes into the full game. Would be cool if it came with the start of the ranked season

Magnetism gone is great. Should be configured in all weapons. This will result in longer fights overall.
Gnasher. It feels really good to be able to clutch again.
And back A’s are finally working… And the ability to shoot after bouncing is great.
However, I do agree that it feels like the gib range should be lowered. But it will make all other weapons feel very strong and the defenders will be winning most of the time. So if it’s lowered all other weapons needs to be nerfed as well. Wich prolly would be worth it. Otherwise the chainsaw will win all the gnasher fights
Lancer. One vs one it feels nice. It’s like the lancer has poke damage now. The player that gets lancered has the time to avoid getting downed. And have the time to take cover. But bad players will still get punished. The problem with cross lancering will still make the lancer very strong. I would call for smaller clips and ammo count to balance it out. More reloading. And eventually, the player can’t hold a position forever with fewer bullets in the lancer.
Health regeneration. It’s so nice to see it back.
Lowered speed. I see how it makes the smarter player better and it took I while to adjust. And I started to like it. Longer fights and better bouncing for sure. The problem I see is that the defending players has to much control. This might be fixed with the weapons swapping delay.
And I also think that the gnasher should be able to shoot a little bit faster. Or that the roll is a little bit further away from a walk gib.

These playlists are a joke since, for every feedback, you don’t know the Xbox version or PC configuration as well as whether players use a controller or KB/M for either, and above all, the situation of the lobby after the matchmaking.
For me (PC Nvidia RTX 2080), I gave up team play (Horde, Escape, Versus and Playlist) :
Sticky walls, impact of bullets in the void or opponent in sponge, slow motion or blocked camera movement near an opponent, no bullets or non-existent shooting when pressing the shoot button and this impression to shoot for the one who kills you, advancement of certain medals blocked,…
I also gave up reporting bugs or inconsistencies in the game : tired of suffering through every new adjustment without really improvements.
All that’s left for me to do is do the daily stars in solo, until I see any real improvements.
I think the priority would be an improvement in matchmaking : Improve your servers or make an algorithm that allows us to have consistent pings between each player and no longer gaps of more than 10, 20 or 30

Compromise. How about slide speed at 625?
I can’t find games in Europe so I play always in US servers with 120 and higher ping so I can’t give a proper feedback because the game acts funny in those pings. Where are all the European players at? Seems that they prefer to complaint about the game than give their opinion

People need to understand you’ll never be able to please everyone. I liked the Tech Test tuning & the tuning when the game first came out. I think this new tuning is okay. I definitely do feel clunky but I don’t think people should not be able to just Up A every kill. Up A has been more of a crutch then tool after GOW3. You shouldn’t be punished for playing damage, I definitely like the hardaim feel. The blindfire on the other hand I’m not used to. I’ve spent a decent amount of time playing & I struggle sometimes. I’ll probably have to just give it more time. Problem is I’m discouraged from playing Ranked or any other modes because it messes with my aim. I only really play FFA, KOTH & 2v2 Gnashers. Coming from those into the Beta Tuning feels like a completely different game. I said this in a developer stream before but there’s needs to be an in game feature in the actually menu to vote on changes. I’ve seen previously where TC has made big changes & said it was “based on feedback” but I never recalled an opportunity to give any. I still don’t know to this day if they make changes off feedback from the Forums, Reddit or Twitter. Or maybe a mix or all 3. Pretty sure a large part of the community doesn’t come to the forums. Also, should start deleting comments on this post that aren’t about the tuning. I’ve been scrolling & seeing a lot of talk about the ranking system/other stuff. There is still issues in the game but that’s not what the thread is for. Just adding clutter.

No feedbacks can be compared and analyzed for lack of content with useful data. This only serves to maintain a certain populace in the game.
The LT needs to have the same spread as the blind fire, the damage at range either needs a debuff or wider spread and the damage for the blind fire feels inconsistent but i believe its due to the spread.
Some shots still phase through people and i believe the aim assist is causing people to backpack me.
Movement feels fluid but i still believe it should be only a tad faster.
Lancer feels fine, i haven’t messed with it too much but i still stand by my previous statements.
Playing the same gamemode on the same three maps is so boring.
All in all good ideas and on the right track.
This playlist feels excellent, way better gnasher, slide speed just about right, result is far more rewarding! Just need to reduce gnasher range a bit and when when someone slides to cover it seems like you can get chunked round a corner with a gnasher strafe that’s nowhere near pointing at you, other than that getting better:+1:

Why do they penalize you for staying in a game!?! I played five games in a row yesterday and at least one team mate quit in each game. The rest of the team is penalized because chances are you are not going to win but TC still takes the full amount of points from you as is you played with a full squad. Why not simply give a zero to the four man team, no points taken to include buy in, and let the winning team keep whatever they earn? Stop hurting players for other people’s stupid ■■■■. I have gone from onyx to silver in the last week because 80% of the games I played someone quit and I end up ■■■■■■!

The playlist nailed the Gnasher tuning perfectly but please do not implement this slower slide movement. It feels way too slow.
Do you not remember the biggest complaint about your game was how slow it felt compared to Gears 4? Well, here we go again with trying to slow it down. It’s so slow I am finding very little enjoyment out of it.
Hopefully they remove this sticky cover that was implemented too. It’s just too much to deal with. I have died so many times because I can’t escape it no matter how hard I try.

That makes the most sense. But is the start of the official ranked season tomorrow?
Love it, keep it, put it in ASAP
I think changes are going in the right direction, however:
Gib range should be reduced in order to have longer CQC
Bullet magnetism in gnasher is still noticeable (sometimes I’m hipfiring an opponent, but when (s)he becomes out of range from shotgun barrel I’m still able to kill, when I shouldn’t.
Weapons like Torque Bow and Longshot should also have bullet magnetism reduced, I love TB but I would prefer kills to be more challenging with it, and I usually suck at Longshot, and since the bullet is as big as a cannonball even I get headshots with that thing when I usually wouldn’t, so kills feel like: “meh”
I still have mixed feelings about speed, so I won’t say anything in that regard.
Cheers.

The 18th I believe
I just wanna say I really hate how much the game changes every month in tuning. Find a good tune for real gears players and leave it for all modes! New players will learn just like they always have. With that said, the gnasher in the new playlist feels amazing. It really feels like im so much more awarded for actually aiming my shots correctly. The changes to bullet magnetism has made it feel so much more like gears then before. If your a older gears player and haven’t tryed this new playlist, I highly recommend you try it! It feels good to have something positive to post about the game since beta.

After reading every comment here, I can safely say, the community wants you to add the gnasher 1 shot down to the next dev playlist. My last 2 community surveys show this data. I love the new tuning, truly, but it all feels like wasted effort without a gnasher true to the series.
