    Ranking System Update

    Posted: 01 Nov 2019 11:03 AM PDT

    One of our top priorities for the studio, as outlined on our Status page, has been to dramatically improve the Ranked experience. We know Ranked in Gears 5 has been a frustrating experience so far, and we've been working hard to rectify the issues as quickly as possible.

    Earlier this week, we found an issue that cause a discrepancy between a player's Skill Points rating and their actual Skill Rating, which resulted dramatic point swings seen in the post-match flow.

    We now have a fix for this issue ready to deploy next week in conjunction with the launch of Title Update 2. However, in order to ensure that the changes rollout correctly, we are doing a mid-season reset of all ranks.

    Unlike our last deployment, where playing matches would often move you towards where you 'should be' in dramatic fashion, this is a full blown reset – which means all Skill Points will be wiped and everyone will need to replay the 5 placement matches in any playlists before gaining a Rank.

    We know this move may upset some of you, but it's necessary in order to achieve the long-term positive experience we all expect from Ranked. This is a critical step in our ongoing work to make Ranked the best it possibly can be.

    Since we're having to reset Ranks mid-season, we want to show our gratitude to all our players for your understanding and patience by granting the Blood Moon Imago Character Skin for free. All that is required is for players to log in between the deployment of Title Update 2 and the end of the current Operation.

    Thank you again for your continued support on Gears 5.

    You can track all ongoing developments around key issues at Gears5.com/Status, and we'll be closely monitoring the results of this change – as well as your feedback – to determine its success.

    Fix for the Main Menu glitch on PC (Steam and W10 Store)

    I searched and didn't find anything. I have been on stuck on Icebound since the game launched. Saw this on on Steam.

    https://preview.redd.it/bdh9wphca8w31.jpg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9c0c094d920396d68fbab8df4959f1b071e1dcd8

    https://steamcommunity.com/app/1097840/discussions/0/1644304412657086991/

    You can change a setting in some file to fix it.

    Go to

    Users\username\AppData\Local\Gears5\Saved\Config\PC\GameUserSettings.ini

    Find "HasSeenFirstBootLevel=False" and change False to True.

    Please Redesign the Totem system

    Posted: 01 Nov 2019 03:37 PM PDT

    I'll give you credit where credit is due: Thank you for making it so we can earn characters through gameplay with no RNG. Good job.

    BUT the current Totem system leaves a lot to be desired. First off, we can only grind 1 Totem at a time. Okay, not the end of the world right? But then every totem has the EXACT SAME requirements to complete. Except for 1 measly little challenge that's unique to each Totem. So it's the same grind over and over. You can do better than that can't you? Because right now it looks like you just want people to give up and spend their Iron whoops I mean CASH to avoid the monotonous tasks that they have to repeat over and over and over.

    Might I suggest a better option? How about you make it so we can grind for all the Totems at once BUT all the challenges are unique for each Totem! I know, you'll have to get a bit more creative but that's your job. Make all the challenges unique so we can at least feel like we're not repeating the same grind over and over.

    Your intentions (greed) are very obvious when you offer these characters for sale, not for Scrap of course only Iron, and when you include a 3 day XP Boost for each character that you purchase. You do not get this boost if you earn the character for free. What's the deal, TC? I'm not going to lie and get hyperbolic by saying this is the greediest thing I've seen in a game but you guys are pretty greedy.

    It can be sickening for your players to see this level of greed because most people don't stick around when it comes to Gears. Most people play the Campaign, play a few matches of multiplayer and then move on to another game. Especially when big new games like Modern Warfare come out. Then the rest of us, the loyal players who are dedicated to Gears, are subjected to and left with all these greedy practices.

    No quickplay games after 10+ minutes waiting time. No ranked games in weeks. This game is dead in Australia.

    Posted: 01 Nov 2019 06:10 PM PDT

    Title says it all. Can't get ANY games. Not even in classic quickplay or arcade quickplay. Grinded out the COG gear totem and now I can't even use the skin in versus.

    Interesting interaction with Fahz and Swarmak

    Posted: 01 Nov 2019 08:57 PM PDT

    When playing horde mode, I ran into an interesting interaction with Fhaz and his ultimate when shooting a Swarmak. It seems that if you fire directly in the center part of his lower gut while your ult is active, it will take out more than 1/3rd of his hitpoints with a single shot using the Longshot rifle.

    This might be well known already, I just thought I'd share it.

    As to why it does this, I noticed that I saw so many damage indicators that I couldn't read how much damage I was dealing, which leads me to believe the bullet penetration may be allowing the bullet to hit multiple parts of his hitbox, causing a single bullet to deal damage a lot of times.

    I ended up killing a Max health swarmak right as it spawned within about 4 shots. It's happened several times so far so it's fairly easy to recreate.

    Still no fix for the 44.1KHz audio issue

    Posted: 01 Nov 2019 09:57 AM PDT

    I bought Gears 5 for my dad for his birthday, and he loves it. He's finished it twice and is aiming for a third run. However, he's affected by the 44.1KHz bug, which renders audio mute or so soft that it's pretty much pointless trying to play the game with his wireless headphones.

    There was a thread about this in the GOW forums: https://forums.gearsofwar.com/t/audio-glitches-when-i-use-headphone-pc/22350

    There is additionally hitching and freezing in the framerate when the headset is connected. Turning it off fixes the problem: https://forums.gearsofwar.com/t/bug-audio-lag-gears-5-pc/19185/4

    The "fix" is to switch to 48KHz audio. However, my dad uses wireless heaphones that only work at 44.1KHz, so switching is out of the question because the drivers don't allow it. Additionally, because my dad will eventually be getting the Xbox adapter for Windows 10 so that he doesn't have to use Bluetooth, he'll also be affected by the OTHER audio glitch, where you can't use headphones plugged into your Xbox One controller.

    The Coalition has been aware of the audio issue since the beta TechTest (three months now).

    Is there ever going to be a fix for this?

    Can I Matte Black Rifle rerelease in the store? As well as the rest of the set? I got the one with the pistols and the load out.

    Posted: 01 Nov 2019 08:20 PM PDT

    Everyone's tells me the Phantom set's better or Poor man's Phantom set, but they aren't even remotely similar. One is DARK and and one is dark/clear and don't match the same skins. They have nothing in common in terms of matching character sets. They don't match skins as well as these people seem to think, I really want this set badly.
