I started the game with 1,200 more scrap than I had yesterday, but I'm not able to craft banners. Am I doing something wrong? I want to craft one of those pride flags.
@CoalitionGears said:#Gears5 Update: 6:05pm PT, Sept 11
We are currently rolling out a progression catch-up on Campaign Progress, Collectibles and related Achievements for impacted players.
This is an extensive rollout, and may take up to 24 hours to complete. Thank you for your patience.
I hope "achievements" includes Steam achievements. I'm going to be miffed if I have to restart 2-4.
you need Iron to craft banners. Scrap is for upgrading Horde/Escape cardsI started the game with 1,200 more scrap than I had yesterday, but I'm not able to craft banners. Am I doing something wrong? I want to craft one of those pride flags.
I was able to craft it with scrap just a minute ago. I guess it was a server issue.you need Iron to craft banners. Scrap is for upgrading Horde/Escape cards
oh I was thinking of the Country FlagsI was able to craft it with scrap just a minute ago. I guess it was a server issue.
Nice to see good things about the campaign but from the looks of it, the multiplayer is once again shotgun-fest. Hopefully it stays on gamepass long enough for me to have time away from iceborne enough to play through it.
These new MP maps strongly encourage camping and stalemates. Way too many flank points too.
That's just good old fashioned Gears rage. AFK'rs aplenty too, gotta protect that K/D.
What's supposed to happen is they will get 15min bans for the first time any get worse the more they quit. Some gears4 offenders had racked up over 30+ days of bans due to constant quitting.
The problem is people quit during the lobby screen when they see their team has noobs and the matchmaking restarts.What's supposed to happen is they will get 15min bans for the first time any get worse the more they quit. Some gears4 offenders had racked up over 30+ days of bans due to constant quitting.
Another factor that's supposed to take place is quitters will be matched with other quitters.
The multiplayer is all sorts of fucked. Matchmaking just gives me sweaty as fuck players nonstop and I can't win any matches because my team is sitting there drooling.
People are completely missing their damn shots but it one shots me. Game blows at the moment
That IS what I've been playing.
what difficulty are you on? the second i made that post i wondered if it was something they made harder to avoid on higher difficultiesDo the same, but the spine literally changes direction mid-flight to hit me.

I had that. One positive is that you can stun the enemy forever with that bug.Is anyone getting a bug in Horde while playing Jack? After I use my Ult, my weapon doesn't do any damage, it just stuns. It doesn't build up heat, either, and no electricity animation. Only time it's fixed itself was after a wipe.
Googling for Gears 5 bugs was about as helpful as you'd think.
Headshot the downed enemy?Started playing JD in Horde and while I enjoy him, I think it's dumb that his passive gives him ammo drops every sixth headshot and his Lancer GL seemingly can't pop heads. Even when landing consistent crits I just seem to down Swarm.
The energy system needs a complete rebalance. It's only working when all people exactly know how to play, transfer money / energy and work perfectly as a team. Del is really hard, maybe even more than in Gears 4, if people don't know how to play / handle energy.
Are the halo characters worth picking up the ultimate edition for if i'm mainly wanting to play horde?
Hello!
That Matriarch boss fight is some bullshit. Quantum Break final boss levels of bullshit.
Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.
That's what i'm doing right now. Kind of waiting to see how the mode shakes out before comitting.I'm not sure about Horde, but I've been playing a lot of Emile in Escape (the new PvE mode). I am loving him so far.
Use the 2$ promotion for GamePass Ultimate to try it out maybe?
Weird. I've only played the game on Experienced but I've definitely dodge-rolled the incoming spike, but I couldn't do it just as she threw it. I could only get the dodge just barely after she let loose with it.Experienced, I think? Who knows why they renamed them!
Someone else mentioned cloak, so I'll try that. I had JACK set to Stim (which seems the most useful in most circumstances) and was reluctant to change it.
They have fun abilities with a cool skill that simulates the Halo shield, Horde is really great imo so I could see you getting the value from ultimate edition. Though you should probably see if you like Horde firstAre the halo characters worth picking up the ultimate edition for if i'm mainly wanting to play horde?

And the individual level up perks in a match are quite useless after 1-2 upgrades because the benefit is so low. You can invest 10-20K in 6-12% more damage or health, but the health / damage of the enemies rises by 100% / 150% after the boss wave(s).
Kat can build just like Del.Yeah theres a few small touches like that that makes it a bit more frantic.
I like how it makes it more strategic, in 4 it was much easier to build up an army of turrets i can see how they wanted to steer ppl away from that a bit.
I know theres Del, i think there might be a few others that can build but havent looked past him and Jack yet. Which other characters can build?
The one in Act 2 (well, I guess that's the only on)? Felt so outdated. And even on normal it takes a while to kill the thing.The fight is not hard, but getting killed by a single attack near the end and have to start over makes this fight really tedious.
Just need to start building Turrets like only he and Kat can and then you're golden.Yep, exactly that one. Probably not helped by the fact I'm playing solo and Del is utterly useless.
I'm not sure what your hoping to achieve with that pipe there Del....Situation seems to call for something a bit more shooty-bang-bang.
