The Big Tuning Thread

This doesn’t make sense. Dark Souls has even slower movement than Gears 5.

Why cant we have 2 ,different tuning options on the verses screen. One being the tuning and movement before the most recent change, and the second being the current slower movement tuning…And just keep track of what is played the most at the end of a 2 or 3 week period. And go with the one that is the most played. I mean, just let the players that play the game decide which one is preferred. That to me seems reasonable and logical.

I want to point something out because I think lots of people misremember a LOT to suit their own arguments.

I have been told quite a lot that Gears 3 (which is often considered the best Gears during discussion) had shot delays, that we have shot delays now and therefore shouldn’t be complaining.

Please see my recent Tweet whereby I show a clip of a former teammate, CLEARLY proving that this is untrue,

Gears 3 never got hate for the Air Back A so why is this delay so vital now? This change IS NOT NEEDED.

I’m completely for Majority over quality in this case but out of curiosity is there a single Professional Gears 5 player that doesn’t like this tuning? I’m under the impression that if its as bad as we say it is those die hard pros that are playing slightly for a living would have something to say about it.

My second guess is they’re too afraid to speak up about it which doesn’t really make sense to me…

Every update it was like a new game I hard to relearn all over again .

Hello guys, i rarely post here but im going to this time cause i feel its my duty to at least leave here my sort of complaint about things i dont see or consider right, any and all of you are free to agree or disagree, but if you agree i suggest you all manifest in this or another topic so that TC can see that we players are not sleeping…

I feel that since the end of OP3 the game has been ruined, i lost most of my playstyle back then and another time like in the op’s before had to adapt…what for? making it easier for noobs, i get the idea, but i cannot agree with it, op4 made drasdical speed reducements and nerf on most reaction shots because as the devs said bla bla bla the experienced player will always get the kill… bro, he is suposed to; he has trained countless hours for it! noobs are complaining? have them practice like us did for God’s sake! op3 was already a campfest and op4 made it much worse, when after countless hours of practice loyal players made it trhough and it was being enjoyable again you decide to what? make us adapt again? each time worse? ive been asking this question to everyone i see in game and the opinion is unanymous!; bring the tunning bacjk the way it was!! this makes no sense, its too slow, too nerfed and once again WE that are here most like me from day one have to adapt and adapt and adaptwhy dont noobs adapt? youre losing all your comunitty to this you think newcomers will stay? they will play a dozen of hours and leave because this is crap and theres no reward on practicing cause y’all mr.devs are going to make it impossible for us again, ask yourself’s if it’s worth doing this, YOU devs and people who lick they’re boots are making gears DEAD not the people who stick here and believe in practice to acheive perfection, theres nothing to acheive anymore cause you take it away theres no reward in a game with nothing to offer than camping and walking forward mindlessly; CHANGE THIS BACK, i fall asleep trying to reach mid map its ridiculous!

Also what is gears? what does it have that makes it unique and appealing? exactly that! what the others dont have! a fast paced unique movement system where you have the shot at dodge and win out of your skill, this is becoming a slown down call of duty or counter strike go now if i want to play those trust me i will go there cause theyre good at what they’re meant for, gears has to be gears and not this bs u keep making, stop killing the game and our time please, another thing while youre at it, fix whats really broken and not whats worth saving:

FIX PERFORMANCE ISSUES ON PC VERSION!! LOTS OF US WITH EITHER NVIDIA OR AMD ARE SUFFERING FROM HORRIBLE MICRO STUTTERING NON RELATED TO HARDWARE AND WIDELY TESTED ACROSS OTS OF GAMES AND WITH HIGH END HARDWARE THERES NO JUSTIFICATION FOR THIS BUT NOT CARING ABOUT US.

FIX BAD SHOT REGISTERING SYSTEM!! ITS RIDICULOUS HOW MANY TIMES IT HAPPENS AND WITH ALL THE UPDATES ITS OUTRAGEOUS YOU NEVER EVEN MADE THE EFFORT TO FIX IT, INSTEAD YOU JUST TAKE AWAY FROM LONG TERM PLAYERS, GOOD JOB!

FIX THE ABSURD PING DIFFERENCES ADVANTAGES!!! AFTER ALL THIS TIME ANOTHER THING YOU ABSOLUTELY MADE NO EFFORT TO FIX IS THIS ITS NOT BALANCED PEOPLE WITH 10 OR 5 PING TRASHING ON TOP OF EVERYONE ELSE EVEN IF THE DIFFERENCE IS ABOUT 15 MS OR 20 AND PEOPLE WITH 130-150+ BEING ABSOLUTE IMMORTAL GODS,

FIX THESE THINGS THAT NEED FIXING INSTEAD IOF DESTROYING THE GAME FROM MECHANICS ASPECT AND EVERYTHING ELSE.

You’re the ones responsible for the miserable state that the game is now, and us people seeing this and not complaining and making our opinion known are too so please whoever agrees and feels identified in the same way please post and make them see it…

im sorry for my bad english as im not a native, i come from Portugal a small country on europe where there is no more base of players besides me or maybe 2 other guys MAYBE and you know why? cause of you the coalition, nobody wants to play this anymore, fix it before theres no return. Thanks in advance.

did you watch the Dev Stream?

Dana was on the cusp of saying he was was “instrumental” when he got sidetracked by something. Going to go back and watch the archive to see if I can find it.

im sure glad he was instrumental and whatnot so much that he is no longer there

this is why i dont buy the feedback bs, they were gonna implement it no matter what. not exactly but a bit of cronyism-ish is what i get from it

can you imagine a “real world business” doing something like this?

hey, Mr. Goodacre, we have state of the art offices with x and y and they were designed by a guy…who while instrumental…well, he no longer works here.

maybe at this point, after the money has been made and the masses have moved on it’s less risky to do these things. go make the comp scene happy for the rest of the lifecycle so you have a fighting chance with them for the next game.

Feel bad for all you PVP peeps.
Can’t help thinking what crap they will do to PVE next.

Got a bad feeling…

Hang on…

I got a GIF for this…

I’m sad to say that this tuning update has made me finally pull the trigger on uninstalling the game as it seems theres no real sense of direction going on here and I’m losing hope the game will ever be in state thats enjoyable for me again. To keep this more on the brief side I’m just gonna list some current standing issues I have with Gears 5.

1, First and foremost. Not so much a gameplay mechanic but WHERE IS THE STAT TRACKING?!?! This is the first Gears where the stat tracking has been extremely subpar. As someone who invests a lot of time into this game I’d like to be able to open my stat page and see how many TOTAL kills I have, what weapons I killed the most people with etc. Previous Gears had this so I’m confused as to where its gone.

  1. Frequent drastic tuning changes. Everyone is at fault for this one though. Not enough people come to the forums to have their voices heard and TC makes changes based off feedback . Its not something that can really be helped at the moment but, I dont think most people want to relearn how to play the same game over and over. That being said, this slower tuning with the shot delays is definitely NOT IT CHIEF.

  2. Gnasher Gib Range. I feel like the 1 shot and 2 shot range is so finnicky. Thats why a lot of these 99% in 1 shots happen. I feel like we dont even need to increase the Gib Range but maybe add actives back to the starting weapons and give the gnasher the slight little buff it needs with every other gun being so powerful.

  3. Mobility. This is more regarding the recent tuning update. So now that all the mobility is gone for the most part. Now the way we wanted diverse play styles is now essentially non-existent because moving now feels extremely punishing while camping and bot walking are by far the better option now. On top of that, positioning is now SUPER OP because once you lose a position with the slowed down movement its almost impossible to rush in and retake an area. Not to mention the lancer nerf didnt even matter much since they reduced the bloom for it again. So now its just a slightly weaker laser beam that I no longer have the mobility to escape from. Now most games are people not moving and going to time limit. Its extremely boring and taxing to play consecutive matches of that in a row.

I think if the slow tuning and shot delays are here to stay I might just have to hang up the towel for now and try again whenever Gears 6 rolls around. Which upsets me but I personally have not been having much fun on Gears 5 and a lot of my friends feel the same, Most of us have uninstalled or stopped playing for the time being. I’m hoping TC compiles all the feedback and comes up with a good solution. Good luck!

This has been the issue since day 1,

TC are trying to now bring eSports into Mainstream MP.

I never want, asked for, cared for a “HYPER COMPETITIVE UBER BALANCED MP” for the whole of the MP.

I want it as fast, crazy, and enjoyable as possible, with weapons that don’t either gib or do a 95% based off of 1mm distance & how the server is feeling.

It can be skilful, with a ranking system & be fun.

I’ll leave the deadass eSports to the eSports scene,

Couldn’t care less about people sweating over angels & map control - it’s not even a popular aspect of the game yet TC are literally forcing it on the community.

TC need to offer no skins/rewards & see how many viewers they get after two rounds of eSports.

People just wanna jump on, buddy up with friends, find games & play something they can enjoy.

Slow paced, delays, weak guns (way beyond what the need to be) - my launch Markza :sob: - is ruining Gears more & more.

I don’t get why TC don’t understand:

We don’t want Speed Reductions, delays, constant nerfs & restrictive movement.
