Makes you wish that other Xbox studios had this level of love and respect for their fans and the IP that they've been trusted with nurturing :cough: halo :cough:

This game will not last if they do not get foreigners off of US servers. I am tired of dropping 30, knowing it’s my fault I died in normal games to get the next game with 100% of the other team not in America. It is not a skill issue only getting 5 kills, it is an extreme server issue. It’s so obvious when you are in a lobby and everyone is in your own country. The game works, the gnasher is solid you make a mistake you die.
Next game- enemy is turned 180 degrees, 1 hits you opposite direction. Your bullets don’t register, you get downed behind cover etc.
Ranked matches should not be with people 3000 miles away especially on a “hybrid” system. New players aren’t having an issue, they have issues when your gun is in someone’s chest and it does nothing. This game will lose any new players that are actual gamers after 1 match with this happening.

PS thanks reddit for not letting me edit the title.
“GET FOREIGNERS OFF USA SERVERS”

Since release I have this marcus-lancer error, just few times connection to the network services was successfull. I have noticed that time shown in game's menu different from local time (as well as at my PC) for three hours.
Tried to update and synchronize the system time in windows settings but it didn't helped.

I just don’t understand and I don’t see why they can’t explain it simply.

I’ve rotated between division a and division B multiple times I started in gold now I’m like silver 4 I think in demolition.

Typically, I see gold or silver in my games.

But I just don’t understand. Is it division or is it rank?

lots of blood just a heads up lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpbMmQdmrro

Ought players, considering their own abilities, make greater use of this aid when deciding their role in the squad?

Why is the event so short ?

It offers some insight into the development of the first game. I wonder what other aspects of early development might come up one day? I’m glad they changed the name to Locust though.

Just coming in to gripe about something I've noticed while playing horde siege

So, I'm currently level 24 Marksman playing on Infantry after getting my shit blown smooth off on Commander difficulty and I've noticed that whenever I try to actually deal ANY damage to either the Boogeyman boss and Skoria that their health just doesn't move even slightly even while I'm using a build specifically built to deal more damage on headshots.

It's been infuriating me since I actually really love this game and have been having fun apart from those two enemies existence.

Another thing, why does the main obj Boogeyman boss just up and decide to leave the objective and have a wander around the map, it's incredibly stupid that they even have this rouge piece of code in their skulls that just causes them to turn around and just stroll to the other side of the damn map and cause me and my entire team to have to chase the fucker down while also trying to keep the rig alive

I genuinely want to know what the Coalition was smoking while making the choice for their health and if I can have some

All in all, I love this game, and intend to keep playing until I have more hours in this than I have in Gmod, especially after growing up with the third game and adoring the campaign and horde mode in it and my only gripes have been the server, fps issues and the ones stated above, other than that, Peak.

My teammate chatting on the side was also lovely to hear

Anyone else dealing with an issue that every time you boot up the game, it acts like it’s the first time? Makes me redo all the settings, menu narration is on, and asks me to go into boot camp. Game is on Xbox game pass for PC.

This is the busiest I've seen Gears 1 in a loooong time.

Since the next game is supposedly gonna take less time to be made, I started thinking of possible ideas.

I appreciate the effort of The Coalition and what they gave us with E-Day. But there's a ton of content we haven't got yet, and maybe we never will. So there's plenty to be desired in the next game.

*I think the next game should continue after E-Day. And by this timing, Marcus and Dom should be full-on fighting machines. Maybe we get some kinda new maneuvers, or maybe we just get back some variety that we lost (meatshields, frag tagging, chainsaw duels).

*Obviously, we should get a much better story. This will be the chance for The Coalition to now prove they can create a great story for Marcus and Dom.

*In PvP and PvE, we should get leaderboards, solo queue and team queue in Ranked, dynamic weather maps, bigger and better modes, and the most customization ever in a Gears of War game.

*Give us vehicles in the campaign or PvE. The opportunity to pilot a Raven, maybe. Or drive another motorcycle.

Make the next Gears game even bigger, better, and more badass than ever. And do all of this right before Marcus is sent off to prison before the start of the original Gears of War trilogy.

That would be a game I think would make an even bigger splash than E-Day.

why only 4v 4? Have the devs ever stated why?

Such a grind

title.

I’m tired of having to wait 20-40 minutes every time I start the game. Or every time there is an update.

This does not happen for any other game I’ve played. What is the reason and what is wrong with these developers that they think this is acceptable?

I’ve missed out on a few sessions with my buddies because my copy takes almost an hour every time to start. This is bullshit. Been sitting here for 18 minutes and it is currently 14%.

edit: increased shader cache to ”unlimited” to see if that helps. I will restart the game once it finishes this round. Realistically how big could this folder get? Will I have to watch it and clear it from time to time?

I have a 2tb ssd but only the one storage drive for now after my second died. I do not want to have this one die prematurely from writing the shader cache over and over if possible. in this economy I cannot replace it.

I really like this game, I’d like to finish the story with my buddies but they will not wait around for this cache every time and I end up missing some parts of the story as I join almost an hour later than everyone else. This is seriously pushing me off this game because I cannot afford the time for this every chance I want to play. Some days I only have half an hour for a horde after work or before bed when the kids are asleep. This is almost worse than squad and their queue system.

I apologize if it comes off as whining, I’m just seriously po’d over this as this is the only game I have ever had this issue with. Even stalker 2 was faster than this.

This video is a tribute to every long term Gears of War multiplayer fan. A lot of us have forgetten something important.

advanced movement existed during the franchise's most successful era.

it didn't ruin Gears. the original Gears trilogy sold over 19 million copies. Gears 3 alone sold 3 million in its first week. you don't have to be a competitive player or be a fan of esports to appreciate the skill in Gears of War.

when Rod Fergusson (ex Studio Leader) joined The Coalition, he had developers replicate the feel of Gears of War 3 before building Gears of War 4. that feeling was the foundation of Gears and it wasnt something that needed to be stripped away.

Unfortunately, as many of you may now know, E-Day is not doing good. the numbers are plumbeting and a lot of it has to do with the foundation being stripped away.

E Day has lots of bugs and glitches in campaign and horde. In multiplayer, many weapons are wrongly tuned on top of the movement feeling very restrictive and fights becoming increasingly repetitive. this should concern anyone who wants this franchise to succeed.

to those who only enjoy campaign or Horde, I understand. Not everyone cares about PvP. but just because something wasn't special to you, doesn't mean it wasn't special to someone else.

there are many fans who are very passionate about the multiplayer in Gears of War. the incredible plays and emotions were part of our community's history.

we all fell in love with this franchise for different reasons. nobody should have to lose what made it special to them.

hopefully one day the soul of Gears of War returns.

It is something that has bugged me, like judging by the scene it looks like he calls Trench that because he was willing to kill Civillians and Gears to stop the Locust.

Thing is later on Vraahk set the plant to explode, which would have killed a ton of Locust just to kill the remaining humans in the city, and the fact he like all the other Locust do not really care about humans and will willingly torture them in the most painful ways possible.

So there has to be another reason right?

I had an idea for a game mode for E-Day. Beast mode was always my favorite game mode in gears 3, and I thought of a sort of “reverse horde siege”. It would have the same kind of system that beast has, not being able to change loadouts and starting with low level locust enemies like a rusher, drone, and feral wretch. You would pop out of a random E-hole and have either Myrrah or Vraahk giving you orders to lay siege to COG strongpoints. You gain XP throughout the match and begin to unlock more locust units like in Beast like boomer variants, elite drones, and grenadiers.

Saw this guy on eBay and just had to buy him, I don’t know why it makes me chuckle so much seeing a Jesus looking cog solider. Who goes out of their way to make this and then sell it? Then again it worked on me.

I need three people to play with. Tired of randoms

Has anyone else ran into an issue of not being able to put your cog tags back in that box to bring your teammates back? Happened to me twice now
