    Want to thank the Gears community

    Posted: 27 Mar 2020 08:47 PM PDT

    Played the first two (single player only) Gears games and randomly downloaded 5 on game pass a few months ago. Instantly got hooked on horde (extremely late to the party I know), having no idea what I was really doing strategy wise I slowly began to put it together. Now feel I'm an asset to a squad vs a hinderance.. along the way there was no complaining, no messages telling me how much I suck, any interactions were positive & super cool. Just wanted to shout out the community for letting a new guy get his feet wet & making me feel welcome.

    20 Minutes of Gears Tactics Gameplay

    Let's Improve the Store

    Posted: 27 Mar 2020 04:11 PM PDT

    I don't think the store is in a good place right now, and would like to see it improved.

    We know MTX are not going anywhere. That's just the reality of the state of the industry. We didn't like DLC packs that split the online player base, so devs have abandoned them. But, they still need the revenue stream that those DLC packs provided, as games are getting more expensive to make, despite remaining $60. So here we are, and we have to deal with the hand we are dealt.

    That being said, there are 2 major things that I personally believe should be addressed about the Gears 5 store.

    Get Rid of Artificial Scarcity

    Basically means keep all store items in the store indefinitely. This is very similar to how games like Rainbow 6 Siege handle MTX in their game. A large majority of their unique cosmetics have remained in the store since they have launched. Gears 5 should adopt this same methodology. A player should be able to purchase a skin when they are ready, and the store shouldn't artificially hurry them along to make the purchase.

    To give some credit it where it is due, TC did add all of the Operation 2 character and weapon skins back into the store at the end of operation. I'd like them to go a step further and just keep the skins on the shelf as they're added.

    But what if a die hard Gears fan can't afford the new skins? Money might be tight, especially in the precarious time we find ourselves in. So...

    Make Store Items Purchasable via Scrap

    Or reintroduce credits. Bottom line, have some earnable, in game currency that allows a player to purchase store items through their effort in game. Allow this currency to be consistently earned by just playing the game. Combine this with a non-timegated store, and you give players something to grind for, a reason to keep playing the game outside of grinding for ranks.

    That sick skin that just dropped for my favorite character? Maybe I can't afford it, but if I can grind the game and unlock him through my effort a week or so later, that's a really good feeling, IMO.

    This isn't to say make all store items purchasable via earnable currency. For example, eSports skins should always be paid for with iron, since a portion of the proceeds go towards support the scene. Players who purchase eSports skins should know that it is a donation of sorts. Same thing with charity skins.

    I know the store has been a HOT topic, and there are people who hate it with the burning intensity of 1000 suns. I ask that we give some constructive feedback, instead of shouting "gAmE bAd", where nothing gets done. We know the store isn't going to get removed or ripped out, so let's make it the best store we can make it.

    Gears of War 6 Expectations

    Posted: 27 Mar 2020 05:39 PM PDT

    Seriously, TC, don't even come back to the table until you can do all of this.

    • Better gore. Little chunks of red meat don't cut it anymore. Start pushing the gore as much as you can and keep a close eye on it before it gets too disruptive for gameplay or too disgusting.

    • Darker and grittier game. A game can still look incredible without splashes of color everywhere.

    • Significantly less greedy microtransactions or none at all.

    • Smarter AI. Enough with the bullet sponge crap and enemies barely even reacting to getting shot at.

    • Launch content that people expect. Delta Squad should be in the game at launch. Same goes for Drone, Kantus, RAAM, Myyrah, etc. We need at least 10 BRAND NEW maps at launch.

    • A proper progression system that doesn't just blatantly copy Fortnite's battle pass and one that doesn't slowly push you towards spending real money.

    • Horde that doesn't force people to play as certain characters to get the abilities/playstyle they want and no more running around collecting Power. We want to hunker down not be forced to play Pac-Man. Look at Gears 2 Horde and try to evolve that without copying other games. Also provide shorter options for Horde at LAUNCH.

    • Weapon balance needs to be a serious priority before the game launches. Don't just launch the game and then plan to fix it later.

    • A big new multiplayer mode to get everyone talking about Gears again. Bigger maps built for rifle play, vehicles to use, etc. This is the primary showcase to catch people's eye for Gears multiplayer. This can exist alongside the traditional Gears multiplayer. Just like how Halo has 4v4 and 8v8 and they're both arguably just as important as each other.

    Operation 3 – Horde Updates

    Gears Tactics hands-on preview

    Posted: 27 Mar 2020 02:59 PM PDT

    Thought you guys should know this. The new Horde update was pretty lame if you ask me. The overall changes are brilliant but the character specific ones are very dull. This is image below is very important for the overall meta.

    Jacks pulse ability no longer appears

    Posted: 27 Mar 2020 10:31 PM PDT

    Started a solo campaign and when I got to act 2 a friend joined me. We're on act 2 chapter 4 and need to equip pulse but haven't been able to continue because there isnt even an option for it and it seems it disappeared. Can't really equip much of anything now tbh. Anyone else had this issue and knows a fix? We're both playing on xbox.

    Rewards for Gears 4?

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 02:09 AM PDT

    I know this game is old... but did they just get rid of any possibility of claiming rank rewards in gears 4? I finally got back to diamond rank and was really hoping I could claim weapon skins. But the site is just... gone?

    Beginner Tips?

    Posted: 27 Mar 2020 06:03 PM PDT

    This is my first Gears game, and I am getting completely bodied online. How are people getting good weapons? How come it takes me 5 shots to kill someone with the Gnasher but they one-shot me? Any other tips?

    Gears 5 performance tanks after playing a while... suggestions?

    Posted: 27 Mar 2020 07:26 PM PDT

    Almost on a whim, I installed Gears 5 via "Game Pass for PC", and the game runs at essentially a locked 60 fps at native 2160p on ultra detail-- for about a half an hour. After that point, I start to get _extreme_ drops in performance every three or four seconds.

    For example, full stats enabled shows the GPU refresh milliseconds follow a pattern like "12.5, 13, 12.5, 311114058585, 12.5, 13..." And during that huge number, FPS goes from 60 down to like 10-- then right back to 60. Then a few seconds later down to 10, then back to 60. And so forth.

    If I quit the game and restart at the exact same point, I'm good for another half hour or so.

    It's almost like I'm getting cache or VRAM thrashing somehow. But VRAM usage is only just over 5 gigabytes, and disk I/O is nothing, so it's not like I'm hitting the OS swap file or something. I've also tried turning down some settings, and dropping the resolution to 1800p, then to 1440p-- same behavior.

    Anyone else encountered this, or have a fix? I'm on the very latest version of Windows 10, with the very latest Nvidia drivers as of today.

    My PC:

    • AMD Ryzen 3600x
    • Nvidia RTX 2080
    • 32 gig. system RAM

    Thanks in advance.
