I had a bunch of gripes about Gears 4. Season pass etc etc… I really cant complain, I didn’t set hopes to high, TC exceeded my hopes IMO. High ping is not affecting me much idk if it’s my region. The matchmaking is not locking me in to south of the border player’s. I like the grind because Gears is all I play. I chalked up the extra$20 for early access only. Everything they advertise is what I got, as far as cosmetic and boost. So if connection stays good it’s everything I was expecting.

The only thing that bothers me is locking the character. They could have easily made you pick a class and then be able to play as anyone

The campaign is great, Escape is a lot of fun, much more than I was expecting. Vs is meh and Horde is meh. The map editor is decent as well, but it is confusing on first entry.
2 out of 4 ain’t bad, Escape will keep me busy for a while with weekly hives, and getting all characters max level.

I am not even sure what to do. I am not be a good Gears player and that is fine. I do like to play. But when you run right up to a player from behind and get a point blank shot full on and the player rolls, eats a second, and gets a 1 shot kill I just cannot compete. I got 88% on 2 hits. My ping was 18 when I looked at that time. Nothing is wrong with my stuff. Not sure what to do.
And something that has to be a glitch. I was one shot killed. At the exact same time my teammate was one shot killed. We were not close enough to both be hit without the majority of the gnasher shot going between us. It did not even look like I was hit. In the kill cam the player turned the corner, shot my teammate full on and I was not even in the shot. And in the live recording I saw the player turn and they were not even pointed towards me.
And the lancer. I hear it is op or way to weak. I hit a player with a full mag. The player ran over and grabbed the drop shot. Turned and killed me with a quick drop. Fine but I only got credit for 5 hits.
Then I get thrown in a match were my ping was 27 and my teammate had a 43. The rest of the lobby was over 100 with a few over 300.
I do not care about results. I am not big on rank. I care nothing about cosmetics. But this is real for me. I cannot figure it out. And I am not the only one on my friends list. Tried to get players last night and they all said they were waiting for the mp to be fixed from these exact issues.
I just really want to play. But looking at my videos of the live play and slowing it down I am definitely getting the hits I am seeing. So I cannot figure out how to correct it. Even seen teammates having these problems. Which is why they just will not play right now.
Today a glitchless run of horde and escape. Thx Coalition, finally can learn and enjoy the game

I honestly having fun playing Gears 5.
Campaign is visually stunning.
MP could use a little toning down on the stopping power.
Horde character locks are a bummer, but I use my chosen character about 90% of the time anyway.

I have awful ping in ranked, I haven’t played a game yet with ping less than 110. Most times it’s like 140 upwards.
Also why is there no execution or warzone in ranked /quickplay? These modes are gow to me.

Just my perspective here, but I don’t understand how people enjoy multiplayer in gears 5. It’s so lancer based & full of camping. If I wanted that I’d play call of duty!

It’s just a different mechanical played game. There are a whole lot of wall campers though, but the versus mode in this game is definitely better played with friends. With communication and teamwork makes it really fun to me.

True they had that shotgun down in gears 4, the game can only get better from here on out. Hopefully they keep adding content.

I agree. The game doesn’t suck at all. It’s great, and it has so much potential. They just gotta change some things

I agree with op. Fixes are coming fast which is very welcome. I’m still undecided on horde mode though. I need to put more time into it before passing judgement.
I think the game is a dumpster fire and I side with nearly more than half the community that thinks the weapon damages are too high and super casualized. But to each their own I guess.

It might just be heavy on the lancer as it just came out & a lot of first time gears are playing. When people learn the maps and become more comfortable the gnasher will probably start to dominate again.
People seem to forget all the problems with Gears 4 when it launched, or every other Gears launch before that. The game has potential and will definitely be amazing after a few updates and content drops
