    Ranked Still Genuinely Has Issues

    Posted: 20 Nov 2019 06:06 PM PST

    Like others have mentioned, I played a game of Escalation, Won 7-2, got MVP going 33-6, and lost 534 points. What's weird about this situation is that the opposing team was favored at 62,268 points to my team's 58,768 points.

    I'm not sure if TC can or would want to look at my previous Escalation match (nFbReaper, on Dam), but it's definitely interesting to say the least.

    Also this was my second game after placement. I'm not sure if points are retroactively applied based on your old rank, but that wouldn't make sense in this case because I'm Silver and was Onyx before the reset.

    My thoughts on this game now that Operation 1 is almost ending

    Posted: 20 Nov 2019 06:42 PM PST

    Wow, has it really been three months since the game started? It's amazing how fast time flies innit?

    Anyway, when Gear5 came out I literally didn't know anything about it except that it was a sequel to Gears 4, so imagine my surprise when I started the game and saw "Week 1 of 12". I looked it up and found out about "Operations" which were like the seasons in Fortnite, except Gear5 isn't free.

    What I read about blew my mind! Constant content every week sounded amazing! And the fact that you had to grind with the ToD sounded challenging and exciting. Then came in Batista and I was like "Yeah, let's do this!"

    But then the days started to fly and the "new" content were just skins for characters I didn't play, which is okay because everyone deserves a shot to customize their favorites, but I also noticed that my tour of duty challenges weren't making progress by playing the campaign.

    I figured I had to play online which, by the way, I had never played before in my life. Gear5 was the first online multiplayer where I actually played online. I started to grind the Tour of Duty and getting the rewards felt really gratifying.

    But then I realized I wasn't enjoying the game, I was constantly grinding to get those stars so I could get skins for JD and the rest (No Marcus skin, btw) and more than enjoying it, I saw it as a chore.

    Gear5 takes my full gaming time. I used to play more games until this one came out, I couldn't play any other one without feeling I was losing time I could use to get progression for the tour.

    No Cole, no Baird, no Carmine, no new characters or anything. Glitches every event, horrible ping, overpriced content store...damn.

    I felt bad because I hadn't even completed the campaign so I could complete the ToD, but since I regularly visit this sub, I new everything I had to know.

    Then the totem characters dropped and I was so excited! Warden, RAAM, COG's and DeeBee, sweet! Sadly, I haven't been able to unlock this characters except for the COG soldier. Don't get me wrong, I like the fact that you have to work for them, but the fact that you either spend several days playing to get 60 thousand XP points or pay for the character feels mean spirited.

    But, you know what? Even after all the glitches, overpriced store content, bugs, ranked resets, no Marcus skins, no Delta, no Carmine and helluva lot of Terminators...I still love this game.

    I complain, sure, but I like it! I've enjoyed the ToD progression I have worked for, I'm so close to general and it feels so great! I would dispose of this banners if I could because they're awful and would add more meaningful things like skins or new characters instead of totems, but I still like the ToD!

    I hope OP 2 is so much better and had all the characters and improvement we have been waiting for. Gears is my favorite franchise and I won't stop playing it until my heart's not in it. And Gear5 made me more interested in characters like JD (which is currently my favorite character of the new bunch) Fahz and Team Scorpio. Let's hope the next Operations are a big improvement and definitely more enjoyable!

    Mvp still lose points, the system is not fixed, maybe it had something to do with the quitters but I shouldn’t be punished for other people not finishing the game

    Operation 2

    Posted: 20 Nov 2019 08:29 AM PST

    I wonder if TC realizes how heavily gears 5's survival depends on operation 2. I enjoy the game play and the horde classes, store don't really bother me. But reading through some reddit posts on this thread...a bad op 2 will be the nail in the coffin for a larger portion of the community. I want the game to survive and grow if anything but there's little evidence to suggest that TC is aware of this probability. With that i'm curious what some of yous guys think op 2 would have to have for you to remain in the community and playing gears 5; or return to gears 5. 'Better store' does not qualify as an answer. Not trying to start a war i just wanna hear specific ideas. At this point i think i would continue playing regardless of op 2 content...but i would like to see legacy characters added to versus. Dizzy would be my top pick as i played as him in my gears 2 days.

    Who else has been playing more Gears 4 than Gears 5?

    Posted: 20 Nov 2019 08:29 AM PST

    The game just feels better, movement and gun-wise. While ranked can be tough to find, there's always a social match available. Hope 5 can figure itself out soon..

    Would it be possible...

    Posted: 21 Nov 2019 03:41 AM PST

    That if you get cards for skills that you've already levelled up to 5 on, to have them turned to scrap? For example, my level 11 Emile has 25 extra cards for the 'Big Knife' skill card, which is already maxed out...

    Supply Drop Question & FREE Chips Ahoy In-Game Content Question

    Posted: 20 Nov 2019 09:35 PM PST

    I can't seem to receive the supply drops from the Chips Ahoy promo. When I submit the code for supply drops on Microsoft's site, it says I'm "good to go," but I received no supply drops in Gears 5. Does anyone know if I have to look somewhere specific for the supply drops? FYI codes for in game content worked well.

    I also have a few extra codes for the Chips Ahoy in-game content (banners and marks). I'll sauce out the codes as evenly as I can to whoever lets me know in the comments below.

    Can we buff the lancer skill card in PvE please?

    Posted: 20 Nov 2019 11:15 AM PST

    A max rank lancer card deals 50% more damage and 25% more active damage. Can we change it to be 50% more damage AND 50% more active damage?

    I don't get why lancer got the short end of the stick when it's the iconic gears weapon. Hammerburst/boomshot both gives 50% more damage and active damage. Why was the lancer left out?

    Has anyone actually received their 2 showdown weapon skins from attending the Microsoft Store event?

    Anyone who plays Guardian and runs into "Karen" You know who that is. Report her in mass please.

    Posted: 20 Nov 2019 11:41 PM PST

    Don't sit idly by and let an AFKER screw over our ranked matches, you have to do something about! They'll only do something if multiple people complain about this player. Please report her. If you do know who she is, just remember to not say the username in the comments, you know who it is just report her. Preferably via support.

    Why do we have to restart the game to use our tour/totem rewards?

    Posted: 20 Nov 2019 05:36 AM PST

    How archaic is that? Why can't I use my rewards as soon as they're unlocked.

    This game baffles me.
