This Week in Gears - Jan 12th - 18th

What is this about? I saw many players spamming some emotes but not sure what is this about?

Maybe Casan’s laugh has got a bleeding effects on everybody!? :smirk:

According to reddit, doing a certain expression allowed players to shoot through cover and below.

TC is pretty sad. I watched the developer stream for about 5 minutes and here are my takeaways.

LEAKS: Dana calls out the dude who leaked the skins and said he’s banned for life. Lame. People do that all the time with fortnite. If anything they should thank the person because at least he built them some hype; something TC continually fails at.

TUNING: Dana said that on the Forums, yes- these forums, that he sees the same amount of positive feedback about the tuning as he sees negative. Like dude, WhAt? That’s a bold face lie. Does he have the correct URL? Very disingenuous.

Whatever, I’m not even tripping cuz at this point the game hasn’t been what I wanted (or what 99% wanted) and it’s never going to be that. I wish they would have just re-did GOW4 at this point. Either way, I can live with the new speed, but the delays were really bugging me the first day it dropped. Seemed aight in the one game I played today.

He’s probably only counting the 2006 VETs.

I mean he supports blm and told someone to eff off on stream when they informed him on the org’s hypocrisy. Tells me all I need to know. Regardless of opinion, that would have been a firing offense at any logical company with standards. Telling a customer to * off over a difference of opinion seems like something a reasonable supervisor would at least reprimand their employee over.

Shrug Store seems to be glitched too. Bought boost for the weekend Star grind and it doesn’t work. (If you try to buy it again, you get a message “You already own content in this bundle. Do you wish to proceed?”)

Tried Arcade last night and it was also glitched. Not just things that could be attributed to lag (although there was that as well) but Blitz showing the circle to be where it wasn’t and no score/time progression. Given the number of people who kept circling around where the circle was supposed to be, I wasn’t the only one having this issue.

Although suggested I cba sending stuff to the gears support as the whole process takes an age.

Hopefully it’s fixed soon and we don’t lose any days boost we’ve paid for.

So where do we give Escalation feedback? You guys need to get rid of the weapon placement system. It’s not particularly engaging or interesting and it slows the game down massively. Just focus on turning it into a good domination mode instead of trying to appeal to a dying e-sports scene please.

I mean they made Arcade for them. Then stacks started spawn trapping with Lancers a whole match.

Unfortunately the classified are slow all the same

Well it doesn’t count towards medals so its useless

Not really useless if you don’t play to grind… as strange as that may sound in this game. Really though, having a fabricator for weapon purchases and perks available to at least a basic degree is helpful especially to make some otherwise non-viable builds or classes work in the first place.

I don’t think it is quite intended for Predator Hunt to be in custom lobbies but what do I know.

Have you played Arcade recently? 99% of matches are Blitz / which strangely enough most people still treat like TDM, even when they had the option to vote for TDM 2 minutes ago.

No ■■■■■■■ way. Did someone in the chat bring it up or did he address it by himself?

Yeah it’s broken for me. Loaded in and power isn’t showing as collected. It’s probably accidental

When it comes to Map and match type Voting a lot of players have odd logic. No I haven’t touched versus this op except for that stupid snowball event
