    Change "Win X Matches of Arcade" challenges to "Complete X Matches of Arcade", please

    Posted: 08 Oct 2020 03:32 PM PDT

    Arcade sucks but wasting rerolls to get rid of these constantly appearing Arcade challenges sucks even more. Why only specifically Arcade? Why is there a challenge to win 5 matches of Arcade?

    I don't want to spend every session playing fucking Arcade : /

    Can somebody actually explain what makes Gears of War 4 better than 5?

    Posted: 08 Oct 2020 12:43 PM PDT

    I see all the time "gow 4 is better", but if I'm being honest, I havent ever seen anyone actually explain how in a way that makes sense.

    Statements like "the shotgun worked better" don't really mean much to me, especially when core tuning was (and I remember this vividly) looked at as the worst tuning across any Gears game to date. I'm pretty sure I could find a YouTube video shit talking gow 4 weapon tuning right now if I wanted.

    Suspended from Versus - Ranked Playlists

    Posted: 09 Oct 2020 03:34 AM PDT

    So, finally decided to pick Gears up after a fair few months off as the game was in a bad state. Go to join a Ranked TDM - the game says ive been kicked from the lobby. Try to join another, and it says 'You or one of your squad members are currently suspended from matchmaking'

    Whats the deal here? Are people in the lobby able to kick? Is it because my rank is low? How long does this last?

    I feel like I’m the only one who wants this character back. I’m really hoping he’s in operation 5 or even becomes a skin for an existing swarm. Just add him back into the game and lore TC!

    If you had to pick any returning characters and a random guest character to Gears, who would you bring?

    GEARS 5 Remastered

    gotta stop rolling too much

    Serious question: Is Marcus from Gears 4 and 5 wearing the same armour of Gears 1 and 2?

    Posted: 08 Oct 2020 01:52 PM PDT

    Who would want customizable menu music. For example, gears 5 menu and you can choose any song from gears 1-5 to play as your menu music?

    Gridiron makes me sad.

    Posted: 08 Oct 2020 01:37 PM PDT

    Why is Gridiron so bad? When you play this game mode at a high level like at diamond/masters rank it's the most non-interactive game mode that has ever been in Gears. All teams do is get the flag and play for possessions and it's so hard to do anything about it. While the Lancer is not as strong as it used to be it is still a gun that can shred people trying to push up, match that with an open map like Icebound, and a team cross, that's a bad time trying to be aggressive against the flag carrier. Most maps in this game promote these stalemate situations where both teams just stare at each other and do nothing! There are two good Gears 5 maps(asylum and reactor) but the teams that want to be annoying always vote all the non interactive maps like icebound and Vasgar. There are other good maps(blood drive and checkout) but every other map in the game is very non interactive. The only reason I play Gridiron is because the game gives me no other choice! My friends and I want to play execution but we can't! TC won't let us play execution! I know there is single life elimination in Quickplay but we don't want to play gridiron/dodgeball and people are always quitting so that doesn't count. There isn't any variety in the ranked modes either! King of the hill is a super casual mode! When I wanna play a true skill team based experience I am not trying to play king of the hill! Also 2v2 gnasher and free for all aren't a 5v5 mode so my friends and I can't play that either! TDM only lets you squad up as 2s and it's 4v4! The whole Ranked TDM never made sense to me, as to why only being able to queue up as a limited amount. If you want a game mode that's limited and ranked…why not wingman?

    I wanna like Gridiron But the current balance of the mode is so dreadful! Take Gridiron and put mechanics in the game that make people wanna play aggressive. You don't have to nerf the weapons or anything! If people are hoarding the flag the game shouldn't reward them for being pansies all game! The game should force people to interact! Put execution rules in Gridiron so if the player downs someone then they have to go over to kill the down! it's makes it so they can't just sit back and lancer the down for free. Executions rules promote interaction between teams. There is so many things that TC can do to make the experience better!

    Also, modes like execution and wingman are modes that got me playing Gears in the first place. None of the current ranked options make me feel like I am playing Gears of war any more and I feel like I am being forced to play modes I don't want to play. I kind of like Gridiron but that is only because its the closest thing I have to playing Execution. Also before anyone brings up the whole "execution is campy I don't want it back" argument I wanna say that I don't know where this whole idea of "execution is a camp fest" came from because it was never like that. Sure, there were moments of pause, but they were usually after the other team would lose the team fight for the power weapon and they would retreat for a bit. At that point the team with power weapon was pushing them anyway so it's not like people were camping. It's easy to mistake getting crossed with camping and most players usually cannot even make that distinction. Also, if you think execution is a hard campfest than you would probably hate Gridiron because it's actually 10x campier than execution ever was. I think the real issue people have with execution is that it was a mode that was heavily reliant on team work and call outs so if you were a solo player it made it very frustrating to play the mode hence the people who say "I get camped for 40 minutes in execution." But I have been running execution since Gears 2 and if you a have team and you are all good at being a team then the mode isn't campy at all. Gears is a team-based shooter so the complaint of "I'm a solo player" doesn't even apply to this argument. I know that can be unfair but if you are solo queuing maybe you should have been playing king of the hill because that is what that mode is meant for or even better play Quickplay if you don't have a team. People forget Gears is a heavy team-based experience and most people's viewpoints are narrow minded because it's in the view of a person who only solo queues. So of course, execution is going to feel oppressive if your team isn't cooperating. That's just the nature of a team-based shooter.
