Back by popular demand, it’s What’s Up – your weekly update on all the latest news, game updates and more in Gears 5 and beyond.
We’re supposed to be getting 3 or 4 characters this month. COG Gear for horde/escape, DeeBee as an arcade character, the Warden as a swarm versus character and possibly Oscar if the speculation is correct.
The lack of Baird in this game disappoints me, hopefully they make a Delivery Driver Baird skin soon

He’s been my main since gears 1. Not having his yet is killing me!

What makes it official? 
There was a mention of a toggle option for on/off aim assist but no talk about reducing it?

Did this update also address the campaign collectibles/Jack’s pickups but? (Not tracking correctly or disappearing)
Didn’t see this in patch notes or whether it was being worked on.
Has anybody received all the Breaker Mace skins they were supposed to receive? I only received one for Masters, but I was under the impression we were supposed to get the one for our highest rank and all those below it, as per September 23rd’s What’s Up.
Based on your placement within Divisions, you’ll received themed weapon skins for your Division and all those below it (for example, Gold Tier placements will earn the Bronze, Silver and Gold skins for the weapon of the week). This week’s weapon for Division Reward Week is the Breaker Mace!
I think they are still running some kind of server side catch up for that. Think it’s meant to be completed end of week.
Didn’t we have to wait to get Baird in Gears 4? I honestly can’t remember if he was available right away or not.

Yeah almost a year and a half, classic Baird that is.

And here I was thinking they were going to make some serious changes. Half the post is still talking about useless ■■■■ such as escape, the store and loot boxes when their servers, matchmaking and versus is broken.
This update is disappointing. I shouldn’t have been excited. It’s TC after all. It’s getting really hard not to just delete this game and be done with it.

If your listening just make it where we can actually earn iron through player progression. But probably not like to act like this game is FTP and charge us like fornite would. I am not buying a single thing , it’s not cool what your doing . I will keep on complaining about it.

They said new characters would start coming this month. But it’s literally the first day of the month, so I wouldn’t get too stressed yet, haha.

Bald Baird was there from the start and yes, classic Baird came much later

I think they are waiting to reveal the new character some time during this month. Probably an event or something.

Ah ok I couldn’t remember what they said. Thank you!!!
For a TU1, this is quite a bore. Too many issues that have been voiced in the community that have not been addressed.

At least the store prices were addressed.
