  There is a major issue for those of us in South America: every match we play has 200 ping. I know it's a beta, but I wanted to report this issue. @GearsofWar @Community_Gears

  If there’s feedback for @GearsofWar. For Siege, I hope they either improve bot AI or have players spawn in easier if they quit or lag out. Bots are not helpful in Siege imo & it sucks when your squad just all quits. Also hope they add incentives to helping another squad.

  @GearsofWar feels so clunky please fix this **** for next beta

  I do hope #gearsofwar e-day horde mode stays this challenging even on rookie on release. And I hope the issues are ironed out before launch (crashing and frame drops to ~10fps on balanced mode in late game horde mode)

  @GearsofWar Also fix the Horde siege ai. Those idiots were doing nothing but running off to go shopping away from the squad. It was frustrating to die and see them hiding 100 meters away from the objective while the squad struggles.

  @GearsofWar ran into an issue in horde siege where the rig didn’t activate at all. Still got the xp but wasn’t able to continue to extract

  @hard8_times @CoalitionGears Crying over a game in beta if ******* mental. Definitely a skill issue

  Awful ******* game worst gears yall ever put out skillgap is nonexistent and the game is made for genuine casuals and noob/dogshit players @GearsofWar My camera shakes and I lag in and out constantly 7 years yall put out this **** 😞

  JPops (@turryjustturry) reported 22 minutes ago

  @GearsofWar After sometime with it I know what the issue is, 1) eliminate this weird inertia based movement that's the main reason its clunky, that isnt this type of game for that movement 2) all the delays delay after shooting when reloading, coming out of a run, coming off a wall. Its slow

  @GearsofWar Idk who y’all target audience was but for damn sure wasn’t for Gears seasoned vets. Y’all nerfing the wall bounce to make it easier for noobs to hit you and compete is asinine. Movement feels clunky as hell with input lag. Movement didn’t need tinkering just 2 ruin a good thing.

• 
  FERMOR (@FERMOR_23) reported 22 minutes ago

  @GearsofWar If you want this game to thrive you need to fix the Wall jumping & the Gnasher centric gameplay. Add a timer to how much time you get stuck on a wall before you can jump & stick to another wall & lower the Gnasher damage.

  Yusef Taufiq (@YuSTauf) reported 25 minutes ago

  @GearsofWar Wall bouncing crap needs to be nerfed BIG TIME!!!! game is fun, don't get me wrong, but it's frustrating players at this point, fix this once and for all.... Gnasher needs major tweaking too

  chris (@ChrisSlaske) reported 26 minutes ago

  @GearsofWar they made it **** this weekend so they can optimize and say they did something to fix next weekend. Ban VPNs. Ban high ping. Dedicated servers

  Day 1 thoughts on #GearsofWar Eday: Modern is the way to play. Desync is an issue and feels bad when dying to it. Aim Assist is really strong, stronger than GOW5 release AA. Scope is very easy because of the AA. Incinerator is a really broken gun. Not missing Hyper Bouncing.

  fix the toggle sprint bug, add FOV slider, nerf the incendiary shotgun, downed enemys eating many bullets when getting revived @GearsofWar

  @GearsofWar PLEASE fix whatever’s wrong with mnk 🙏 the movement and aiming feels so clunky it’s driving me insane

• 
  Sergey (@MrSarto) reported 34 minutes ago

  If you are getting “bryce-vigil" error, time desynchronization has nothing to do with it. The game failed to load your perk data, even though the server still has it on record. Go to your character settings and configure them. #TheCoalition compiled a QA curve. #GearsOfWar #EDay

  JDub (@JWalkPlays) reported 35 minutes ago

  @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears Honestly I am having fun learning new mechanics. Being a beta I can over look crashes and hit reg issues from time to time. No chainsaw duels feels weird at least make yall clash and then bounce off to a stalemate. Lancers bloom should be tighter

  @GearsofWar All that's left is for you to fix the discontinued achievements from 1 and 3.

  @Lukewarrrm @GearsofWar Same in Brazil. The only one that is worse in regards to lag/connection speed is Reloaded

  @GearsofWar @Bioghost7w0 FIX THE RESPAWN TIME

  IToldCMC2CockDaGlockPurdy (@thatbullsmitty) reported 43 minutes ago

  @JayceNeal219138 @TH3MAF1A @GearsofWar That’s the problem nerfed is what it shouldn’t be especially since it took skill to master and do fast

  @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears 100+ hours deep into Horde Siege with the squad and I need to say this: you finally cracked something great. But it's hanging on a few fixable problems. Full breakdown below — devs, please read this one 🧵👇 (1/12)
