I swear you loved Gears 1 though… and so did I, I don’t really want the movement changed but maybe a slower pace wouldn’t be too bad. Gears 1/2 were much slower and they were infinitely better games than all there predecessors.

I’m not saying it isn’t im saying that slowing the movement down and taking the game in a more tactical route also has just as high a skill cap, its just DIFFERENT

I heavily disagree slowing the game down makes it easier for newbie players to keep up literally and figuratively.

And keeping the PvP as is keeps it very niche, and as I’ve said before (in my opinion) wall bouncing is silly, ridiculous to explain, and looks like your glitching.

I dont think the game needs slowing down, but I do like the thought of slowing/limiting/ punishing hyper-bouncing.
I just don’t like the way it looks. Or the fact it makes no sense momentum wise.
The wall bounce to get round an opponent or two sure. Videos of people bouncing around the map nonstop looking like Taz - Mania is just ■■■■■.

Go hop on Gears 1, probably the slowest gears game with the highest skill gap. Noobs could not cope with that game.

Theyre no scoping because you can’t move faster than 2 miles an hour
Faster movement doesn’t exclusively mean wall bouncing

It isn’t a skill, it’s an abuse of the system and is used only by people who have fragile egos as it’s their only way to accurately get kills. It’s also an incredibly easy thing to beat, so while you’re out there making yourself look stupid, your target is laughing at you knowing you think you’re some MLG player when in actuality you most likely haven’t managed how to actually play the game. This is why you’re here now attempting to insult someone. No honorable player will wallbounce, most have wanted it gone for years because it’s garbage that garbage players use.
I’m all for them removing it.

Consider all wall bouncers you come in contact easy kills then. But you lose all credibility by calling those that do it garbage. If anyone is garbage its you. Its been around for years and could be one of many reasons why gears became so great.
I play GOW4 and when I come across someone that manages to kill me using this technique, I applaud them. Not everyone can do it.

abuse of what?it’s been in the game starting gears2, count how many years it’s been and most still don’t learn it and talk abuse
it’s a legit tech although not something I’d like for them to keep
if they’re going to touch the wallbounce, cooldowns are a silly way to handle it.

Yeah Gears 1 will always be my favourite game.
I think whilst yes I agree there was a big skill gap in Gears 1, I think the margins were a lot tighter. What I mean by that, I could have given an elite player (pro gamer) in Gears 1 a half decent game. I couldn’t get near a pro gamer in Gears 5 - there is more scope to get better and develop your game which is why I like 5 (I liked it a whole better before the recent update).
What was your tag before McGrady?
Go and play cod gimp karma /garbage
lol at people still calling sliding an exploit. 
It’s been in the game since gears 1 and has been re-itereated and improved upon in the 2 epic sequels. Do you guys think the wall cancel was an accident or something?
It wasn’t, it was epic adding an extra feature onto sliding. Not the kind of thing you do to an exploit or glitch.
After gears 2 the ‘exploit’ argument is basically dead in the water.
That’s something I definitely agree with, I could definitely hang with pro’s on Gears 1 and even got to a semi-final on boxes.
Honestly don’t remember I’ve had so many, I remember playing a game or 2 with you though in a party, very good player, used to rock the locust grenadier. Then you disappeared like so many gow 1 og’s
How is it not a skill? Can you do it fluidly and get kills ?
Its so easy to beat yet youre complaining that it needs to be removed…
who complains about something that is easy to defend against
When your abusing a game that means you’re cheating…
So youre telling me pros cheat? Epic and Tc have allowed cheaters all these years?? Explain please
Please dont respond with “its for trash players”
Post your stats if ypu wanna make a point that its a useless “ABUSE” of the game .
shut us wall bouncers up.

Bouncing Gnasher fights is what made Gears Great! It’s not really there anymore. You can’t really make a miss. Bullet magnetism is so high and the hit box is so big a 5 year old can head shot you with ease.
Restrictions on movement, slowing down the game, or just taking movement flat out of the game ruined this franchise. As far as wall bouncing change, I didn’t notice a difference really.

Yea wall bouncing is why the books, comics, and other media do so well, there’s more to the "franchise " than wallbouncing and gnasher PvP fights.
Gears unique style in art, story telling, and characters make the franchise. Plus there’s a reason campaign comes first in development, its because the PvP is nich due to the ridiculous circus show of glitchy wall bouncers. Gears is a AAA title due to the campaign not PvP

Yeah the skill gap was definitely tighter at the top.
Haha thanks dude. I used to love the grenadier. Hit me up if you ever fancy a few matches
