Oye te tengo una idea de regresar a los corpses
U locust olvidados en los subterráneos
Para meter presion en gear 6 con los agujeros de emergencia imaginate corpser del enjambre u locust salvajes aun vivos por ahi
Controlling on mouse & keyboard is BROKEN and INCREDIBLY HORRIFIC.
Horde mode like GoW 3 please ! And Beast mode !
OK, good, new game. But why bullets come from center of camera like in 2007??
For the menu themes we need OST from Gears 1-3 to give us more of and old feel to it as we prepare for the worst to come😅
If any guest characters please let them be apart of the gears universe or fit in at least. Like BulletStorm or Unreal Tournament.
As a new player my opinion is the game's tutorial is extremely poorly thought out. I already don't love AI and you use it to narrate the tutorial and it won't stop talking so i can't even figure out what to do. Great job selling the game.
trash game as fuck I keep shooting enemies 1000 time they never die , while they shoot me one and knock me instantly
I hate the beta. If I buy the game it’ll be for the campaign.
I can’t stand that bs shotgun only gameplay. Terrible. Unfun. Annoying. Horrendous multiplayer design. Who thought that was a good idea?
This game needs a stamina gauge like souls games.
Is there local split screen horde?
This game will be the same thing that happened to reloaded it will only last 3 months and your community dies the game is designed for everyone but they wanted to innovate, they killed the game, remember what happened with judgment
RIP GEARS OF WAR
Until never here one of your great fans dies
gears e-day recommendations for release:
* Multiplayer Gameplay Recommendations
– Responsiveness & Movement:
Ensure movement and actions feel tight and responsive rather than heavy or delayed.
Benchmark: Gears of War 4 achieved the ideal sweet spot for movement, running, wallbouncing, and shooting responsiveness.
– Visual Clarity:
Increase color saturation and contrast for both COG and Swarm factions to make player models immediately distinguishable during chaotic engagements.
Make the damage indicator more translucent and less intrusive to prevent it from blocking crucial screen real estate during gunfights.
Expand FOV settings to allow configuration up to 120.
– Regional Infrastructure (South America):
Implement dedicated servers and network infrastructure located within Colombia to ensure fair ping conditions, low latency, and a level playing field for South American players.
– Low-End Optimization:
Optimize the engine and graphics pipeline to deliver significantly higher frame rates (FPS) on low settings, ensuring smooth performance for competitive play on a wider range of hardware configurations.
– Server-Side Anti-Cheat & Fair Play Enforcement
Server-Side Architecture: Anti-cheat enforcement must operate strictly as a server-side service. Because client-side anti-cheat software is inherently bypassable, security must rely on robust server-side monitoring of player statistics and telemetry during matches.
AI-Driven Real-Time Detection: Utilize modern AI and statistical analysis to detect and instantly ban users exhibiting statistically impossible metrics in real time (e.g., impossible K/D ratios, abnormal headshots-per-minute, or impossible accuracy).
Comprehensive Rule Enforcement: Automated bans must actively enforce fair play, codes of conduct, and penalties for rage-quitting.
– Ranked Play Prerequisites
To maintain a high standard of competition, access to Ranked Multiplayer must be locked behind strict progression and behavior prerequisites:
Performance Benchmarks: Minimum thresholds for K/D ratio, match accuracy, win rate, and MVP counts.
Behavioral History: Clean records regarding cheating and rage-quitting.
Social Play Alternative: Players who do not meet these competitive prerequisites remain restricted to non-ranked, social quickplay queues until requirements are fulfilled.
– Penalty System & Public Accountability
Zero-Tolerance for Cheating: Confirmed cheaters must receive immediate, permanent bans with zero tolerance, publicly highlighted on a community "Wall of Shame."
Rage-Quit Escalation:
First offense: 24-hour temporary ban from ranked play.
Third consecutive offense: Permanent ban from ranked play, alongside a public listing on the Wall of Shame.
Code of Conduct Violations: All reported misconduct must undergo manual moderator review, followed by appropriate, proportionate disciplinary action.
– Modular Installation Architecture
Decoupled Downloads: The game must be split into two independent, optional download modules: Campaign and Multiplayer.
Resource Efficiency: Users must be able to install only what they intend to play. Campaign-only players must not be forced to install multiplayer assets, anti-cheat software, or background services that consume valuable SSD space.
Performance: Both modules must be independently optimized to ensure a swift, compact, and streamlined experience for each user base.
FIX THE CONTROLS
The disappointment of the year. It's a disaster and they're not going to fix it before launch. The controls feel bad, the optimization is poor, and the netcode is terrible. On top of that, in horde mode, the performance is much worse and the connection feels even worse
The Coalition,
Please allow us to jump back into a match if we get disconnected. After making so much progress playing on Commander Difficulty in Horde, only to be disconnected and lose all those experience points, and then it happens AGAIN after starting a new match, is particularly frustrating. All that time and nothing gained.
Feels a little clunky. Maybe it's just for console, but gears 5 was so smooth bouncing around and swiping onto people. Im not sure if it's the new sprinting animation but trying to cancel/shoot people with the gnasher doesn't feel very good at the moment. I like the slide and alot of aspects, but it does feel either clunky at times or delayed slightly on the controller.
ruined my whole weekend with that bs ray tracing requirement smh
Where is Ranked Execution? If this feels anything like Gears 3…then its gonna be fun!
If possible, please have the Horde maps cycle between day and night and have commanders appear.
Low key I really hope they add a Battle Royale mode on the horde map. It can just be a bigger execution match. Team based. Doesn’t have to be 100 people lol. But teams of four l, ten total teams? Buy stations for nades, ammo and medium heavy weapons and buying people back. Heavy weapons spawn once on the map random every time. No respawns for those. I think it could be really fun tbh!
dog shit everthing feels delayed after sprinting such a downgrade from, gears 5…. all you had to do is copy gears 5 and nerf wall bounciung this game feels so shit
Please, keep this mind in Gears. This is what I've been expecting since Gears 4
How much money do the Jews pay you to include this Carter character?
Remove the ray tracing requirement from the game as I am not gonna waste a penny on getting that 2k dollar GPU just to play your game
Hello, The Coalition. I would like to share my humble opinion about the game. I want to start by saying that I have been playing Gears of War since the original Gears of War 1 was released. Over the years, I have made dozens of friendships through this game, and I am even part of a clan that continued supporting and keeping the Gears community alive during the periods when Gears of War did not receive much official support. We organized fan tournaments, created community pages, and continued doing everything we could to keep the game alive and support the franchise we love. First, I want to say that Gears of War: E-Day is looking incredible, and I am genuinely enjoying the beta. However, I believe there are several aspects that could still be improved before the full release. Movement sometimes feels inconsistent or unusual. There are moments when the movement does not feel as responsive or fluid as I believe it should. The Gnasher also feels inconsistent at times. There are situations where the hit registration and overall consistency of the weapon don’t feel quite right. Another issue I have noticed is when running and trying to quickly shoot an enemy. There seems to be too much delay before the character is ready to fire, which can make certain encounters feel less responsive than they should. I understand your decision to reduce wallbouncing in order to make the game more accessible and attract new players. And even though wallbouncing is still present, my humble opinion is that the people who keep Gears alive for years are the players who stay committed to the multiplayer. I completely understand the players who enjoy Horde and Campaign, but after a few months, many of those players move on to other games, while the multiplayer community continues to keep Gears alive year after year through tryharding, tournaments, competitive play, and the overall competitive scene. I understand the intention behind wallbouncing and wanting the character to feel heavier and more grounded. However, I believe the wallbounce cancellation should happen a little earlier than it currently does, so that players can properly bounce from wall to wall. I understand the desire to preserve the heavier feel of the character, but I believe the wallbounce system can still be improved while maintaining that feeling. My final point, and the most important one to me, is that I strongly believe shots should come from the weapon itself rather than from the center of the screen. Having the shot originate from the weapon creates many more opportunities and makes the gameplay much more versatile. It allows players to perform reaction shots, wrap shots, pop shots, and many other techniques that give you additional tools to counter different attacks and situations from your opponent. It also makes Gears look absolutely spectacular, and that is one of the things that motivates players the most. There is nothing more exciting than watching professional players or incredible Gears montages on YouTube. Those moments are what motivate us to keep playing every day and to become better players. And please, for the love of God, bring back Gears of War esports. I truly believe that esports and competitive Gears are some of the greatest things this franchise has to offer. You have an incredible game here. I genuinely believe that with just two or three important changes, this game could become something truly special — even perfect in my eyes. Thank you, and much love from the Latino and American Gears community. I have friends from both communities, and we all share the same passion for this game. Thank you for all the hard work and sacrifice you are putting into Gears for us. I truly hope this message reaches the people working on the game. We will always support Gears. The potential is there. Thank you for everything. ��🎮
Idea for Seige – add an optional modifier where you can kill other squads to steal their rewards or team up and get additional xp for extracting. PvPvE style 🤔
Beta Feedback
The game has huge potential, glad to see it. The main things I'd like to see fixed / added:
1. Better PC optimisation – less CPU heavy
2. Add weather / time of day randomness when playing Horde and PVP. Playing Sunset , Night, Day can keep the same map fresh.
3. Bring back meat shields, frag tagging and chainsaw battles
4. Reduce input delay after running and make the movement / animations more smooth. I like the heavyness but it feels too clunky
Can't wait for October!
PLEASE BRING BACK BEAST MODE FROM GEARS 3 ❤❤❤
give good servers please <3
I hope the devs bring back Cheat Codes or “Horde Modifiers” like Gears of War 3. I wanna see Infinite Ammo, Big Head, Piñata, Flower Blood just for fun.
Please bring back RIVER
If they keep it like this and just tweak some small things they will have an absolute great addition to the Gears story hope the campaign and a nice long and tough fought battle of what E day would have been. An all out brutal assault. So far loving it!
Bye arc raiders
mandatory rtx? Another unoptimized UE5 slop. Beta is really disappointing.
Ваша игра кусок говна лагающего на мощном ПК, вы криворукие разработчики и ваша игра лагает на самых мощных системах в 2026 году.
ВАШЕЙ ИГРЕ НЕТУ ОПТИМИЗАЦИИ 😡😡😡 И вы хотите чтобы этот продукт подкупили.
TC, you did a great job with the beta. I am really enjoying it. I have had no issues what so ever. Can't wait until launch. I love this game.
La decisión de que el juego se quede en steam y Xbox podría mejorar atrallendo al los jugadores de play station pues alargaría el tiempo de vida del juego que además incluye el beneficio de la derrama económica.
