Dude, Gears is āBroken and Deadā.
How dare you
How dare you dare me
Apparently you have data on how many players are still in Gears 4. I would like to see the source or link.
You say TC is no longer interested in G4, if so why does it keep the shop there with items that can be bought with real money?
What maintenance is needed for a voting system?
Effectively everything that has been said here is mere speculation, however it is striking that precisely those 2 factors have been broken and not others (such as the possibility of buying with real money for example).

They also put ads for Gears 5 and the Rockstar drink or whatever energy drink that is to win a truck? Unless that isnāt new but I donāt remember it and it usually just was Gears 5 ad.

Keep making excuses for GOW4ās low player count. 
Just played 2 games of KOTH on Gears 4, Relic and Forge, we couldnāt choose of course. The lag was very real!. 
I think about 7 of us had pings of 20-40 but 3 players had 200+
That doesnāt justify the embarrassment Gears 5 is going through.
With only 2 months to have come out and is in 28th place.
How many months it took for Gears 4 to reach that low level?
In 3 years Gears 5 will have far fewer players than Gears 4 has now.
By the way, whatās Steam got to do with it?
I didnāt know Gears 4 was in that store.
How dare you dare him for daring you
The one who associated Gears 4 with Steam was you, not me 
And thereās no need to search for excuses, Gears 4 has completed its cycle very honorably, with successes and failures like any game, but what happens with Gears 5 is a disgrace for a saga like this.
When Gears 5 reaches the same age as Gears 4, it will be a game more than dead.

Omen the numbers in public have to be lowā¦every game starting with bots inā¦i try to avoid pubsā¦but iv also noticed what seems like a drop off in customā¦dont think weāll ever get numbers but just playing speaks for itself.
Are they still sabotaging Gears 4 ranked?
Not only the ranks but also the voting system have sabotaged it.
For the last 3 weeks you have not been allowed to vote for the map before each match.
And yes, the problem continues.
Itās the first time Iāve seen a company damage its own product in this way.

I know about the map voting, I was playing while it was happening. Gears 5 is a disaster so I went back to 4 the same week 5 came out. Hadnāt played it in a while, since Iāve been hanging around the forums cuz Gears 5 sucks massive ****. Hoping they fix it but doesnāt look like thatās happening. Anyway while on these forums I just saw this one post in particular and couldnāt believe it. My one gears safe haven is being sabotaged. Havenāt touched Gears 4 since I read this. Was kinda hoping it may have been resolved now a couple of weeks later, but youāre saying itās still occurring. If those geniuses think the vets are gonna go play 5 cuz rank in 4 is broken theyāre badly, badly mistaken. As many have already said, we would much rather go play other games, then go contract aids playing 5.
