Only one of the maps you named (Diner) has been in less than two games, and some have ALREADY been in three games like Blood Drive, Raven Down, War Machine, Gridlock, and I think Fuel Depot too. And frankly I’m so effing tired of Raven Down. I mean I’m tired of all those maps at this point but Raven Down is especially bad.

I know what you mean.
The problem is that to be frank, TC seem incapable of making good maps. So it’s either play on the good old maps, or continue to get poor new maps, or remakes of poor new maps.
I know what I’d choose. I’d take raven down every day of the week over icebound for instance.
Heck, I’d even take bullet marsh over a lot of the original gears 4 and 5 maps.

We’re not getting enough new ones…if we’re forced into having maps we’ve already paid for…then ffs give us the ones peeps are asking for🙄

Well you and I will just have to agree to disagree because raven down IMO is the worst map in any Mp game ever lol That said I mostly play KOTH and raven down is absolutely no fun at all. Execution it’s ok. But any respawn game type is awful. You can’t DO anything!
I actually think TC for the most part makes good maps. Which isn’t to say they are all great because they aren’t. But that’s fine, 100% quality isn’t the benchmark of success. But like…exhibit has really grown on me. Foundation, while I’m pretty tired of it, is a great map. Reclaimed also, one of my favorites in the series (man I wish we got a night variant though, deserted farms at night are spooky!) Vasgar is good, District I really like, Training grounds I like the layout but maybe not the mechanical look of it. Either way, they’re mostly good. Even lift is a fine enough map. I didn’t need it to come back in gears 5 but it’s not a bad map.
The problem to me really stems from the fact that they only released seven. That’s below the established standard, as most games ship with 10 or 11. That means even good maps get stale. So it’s not about quality as much as I’m just bored.
You should all know by now that TC always prefer the opposite of what fans do.
I agree with @o_GH0UL_o‘s list 100%. If maps are to be brought back, it’s got to be decent popular ones that weren’t in Gears 4. It’s so lazy and boring that it just sparks no interest in the game at all.
TC have the amazing opportunity to bring these legendary maps back and add Swarm pods, etc, and really make them look overrun. I get they added Windlfare versions maps to some in Gears 4 but nobody liked that…
Give me Mansion.

Yeah I would be happy with all those maps except diner
The closest thing to this could be Jack hijacking a Drone-like enemy and manning the Silverback.
Apparently, even hijacked Swarm can trade weapons with teammates but not sure about interacting with Lockers or moving Fortifications.
Best part about this post is only 1 map is a gears 4 map LOL
LOL that would be cool.
Im gona test this first thing.
Bruh, Ryan said on his thread one day that when people are supposed to trade, the person with the highest ping was supposed to be victorious in that trade. I was so effing shocked by that I asked him where he got that feedback from. He told me to ask Octus.
So, seeing how that’s the type of feedback they’re getting, my only conclusion is that they’re getting em from a psych ward…
OP, totally agree with you. It’s truly ridiculous that someone woke up one morning and thought it’d be cool to suggest to the others in the studio to remake Lift, out of all the maps. I hope that in the future they’ll just make a poll and ask people what they want as maps and content for the next OP. Cause two universal maps ain’t cutting it, and adding more modes that will only impede them on making more maps and just take too much of their time isn’t going to cut it neither…

Give me Thrashball and Trenches. I actually liked those maps. I’d take Sandbar, Bullet Marsh, etc over any of the maps that TC has come up with so far. They all lack any sort of creativity compared to maps from previous games.
Even Bullet Marsh had more creativity than them and I despised that map. It says alot when I’d rather play on one of my most hated maps over any of TC’s new ones.

Not a fan of Lift either but worse than Bulletmarsh lol?? Bulltetmarsh is probably in the bottom 3 Gears maps of ALL time if not THE worst
My Bottom 3 being (no order, including Gears 5 and strictly as a KOTH player)
1-Bunker
2-Bullet Marsh
3- Sandbar
Top 3 Maps I want to see return:
1 Pavilion
2 River
3 Jacinto
Chance of said maps returning:

They need to review priorities and relocated efforts to produce more MP maps. That’s what most people want for sure.
I’m song Ed on up right now but like this ibsgrre I think

I hated raven down in gears 4 it was to dark even with color blind setting turned on.
I love how people blame TC for just remaking maps over and over and yet so many people constantly ask for remakes over and over.
It depends on the map. I would love to see TC release nothing but new maps, but if they’re going to remake a map, don’t choose from 4 or any map that has been remade a trillion times like Gridlock. Go for one that hasn’t been seen for a long time like any Gears 1-3 maps, or even a map from J at this point.
