    Re: Gears of War 4 (X1)

    Blind firing in this game is broken once again. Shots are not registering.

      That's not blind firing it's shots in general time to time don't register well they do, opponent just eats the shots.

      Well known legacy issue with gears is eating shots in pvp but I can guarantee it's not tied to just blind firing, as I usually end the match with the most spray and pray kills and have clips of guys eating my shots using both hard aim and blind fire.

      Try lining up your shot more with the right stick or soft aim, quickly tap left trigger it'll line up your shot and then quickly tap right trigger.

      Enemy character comes into play with this as well, which is why you'll see players using the skinny characters more such as anya and the deebee.

        I've been on the fence with this game, but I was planning on getting an XB S later this month, so I may take advantage of the GOW bundle they have.

        Besides horde mode, how's the rest of the MP?

          I feel like it is pretty top notch. I mean, if you have played Gears in the past you will feel right at home, it's familiar (in a good way) and the new weapons are pretty nice. Gears multiplayer, imo, has always been the gold standard for THIRD person shooters.

          Really looking forward to diving into the campaign at some point tonight.

            Lol these servers. Just got disconnected at the start of wave 20 while I had a wave 20 bounty going. Good times. It's gonna be a mess Tuesday if they can't even handle early access now.

            Everything is down now. Can't view my credits at all.

              That has happened to me a few times now and, yeah, it's "bang my head through my monitor" levels aggravating.

              Did more people buy the UE than they expected? Hope they are ready for Tuesday

                It's the best gears MP to date across the board. Servers are **** right now though.

                  It might be live this time. Still frustrating either way.

                    I'm on Act IV: 4 right now.

                    This may very well be the best GoW game yet, and it's working on being the best game to release this gen. It's an absolutely wonderful gameplay and narrative driven experience.

                    If you own an Xbox One, you HAVE to buy this game. It's the definition of a must-own system seller.

                      I've played 3 hours of Horde and haven't had any issues with the servers. I'm definitely expecting some hiccups come full launch though.

                      Got to wave 30 earlier. We fail once and half the team quits. Yep, that's Horde with randoms. Still a ton of fun though.

                        For awhile I assumed that my teammates were getting booted from the server because they were quitting out so much, so early. But I am starting to think that it is just the way things go with randoms in Horde and the servers arent the issue. I just figured why would someone start a match just to leave in 5 mins....every time

                          It's one of my favorite games so far this gen, for sure.

                            I'm so excited to play the story. Unfortunately I have to wait till Monday night but I'm pumped to dive in and play horde and pvp.

                            Do the storms in the game affect gameplay that much?

                              It's not some huge difference, but you can imagine the kind of affect violent weather and winds would have on projectiles from weapons and debris. It all looks visually fantastic and Windflares are also not something that's repeated a ton, so they still feel special.

                                I expect people leaving. Especially if they are bounty hunting. I get booted myself though every now and then and get a "gears servers are down" message. Or something a long those lines. So I'm guessing it's happening to other people too.

                                Obviously a ton of people were having issues night 1 too. It does seem better since then though.
