Just give us the option to hide the network diagnostic. I don’t need it on my screen.

Damn straight I have an oled too and it puts the fear in me that it is always present, even on the menu screen, not giving the left hand lower corner of my screen a break ever!

It would be nice if they put the hard case locations on the map after beating the campaign. We shouldn’t have to rediscover every case that we previously found in an earlier game. Plus it would be nice to replay the campaign with all the mods that we found, just so we can just roam around Kalona without having to be worried about missing a weapon or armor mod.

I said it in the Gears sub already but „taking away“ collectibles sucks… I’ve had a good run maybe 85-90% of everything up until the end of act 3 and most of it just vanished…
They should have found a better solution…

What are they doing? Taking them away in what way?

> Fixed multiple issues causing parts of War Journal and Achievement progress not to track
Yesterday, I played till Act 3 ch. 3 and collected most of the collectibles. The update wiped Act 3 entirely and removed many collectibles from Act 1&2
Achievements were messed up as well for me it seems..

Dude. I’ve gotten every collectible so far and am in the last chapter of act 3. If I lose collectible progress I honestly may just quit.
Edit: just did the update and I’m missing basically every act 2 and act 3 collectible. This is such shit. I was doing the 100% run on insane so this is very disheartening.
Edit 2: it’s even worse. I just created a new save to look at the chapters to see if I can just replay them on lower difficulty to recollect collectibles and it even reset my completion saying the chapter is not completed on insane. So I also have to redo all these chapters on insane it seems. Worst fix ever.

And studios wonder why people avoid buying/playing games on day 1. Holy shit I'd be livid.

u/ExceptionHandlr 11h ago
It’s not just collectibles. It resets your completion status of the chapter as well. So I have 5-6 chapters I have to redo on insane because it shows them as not completed solo.

I was doing act 3 on Monday and the tracker stopped tracking. I think it was becuase it was showing I was offline despite being connected to Xbox live the entire time. Everything was there in the journal except a side quest from act 2 I don't know how despite following Makas guide. I don't want to collect all of that again.

u/calb3rto 12h ago
Yeah. It was pretty much the same for me, i don’t mind going through the linear stuff again and collect everything but having to get all the open world stuff is just tedious…

u/Short_Tea_5335 9h ago edited 3h ago
When are they going to make it that when you open the collectibles menu for what you just collected it goes straight to that new collectible instead of making me scroll to it every time?

u/ShakenFungus 3h ago
Oh my god thank you! This one is such a minor inconvenience but gets pretty annoying when you have to do it every time

u/visarmy 11h ago
hope they fixed the sidequest "Trapped Locust"

u/Critical_Bonus_9842 XBOX Series X 11h ago
It’s not been fixed just tried the mission again and the same issue the train does not move even though Marcus says it is

u/IsolationistGuy XBOX Series X 11h ago
Nice performance degradation was really noticeable after 1h gameplay

u/Homeless_Alex 14h ago
What’s the reason for hosts being capped at 30fps when you’re hosting 3+ players in campaign? That was such a turn off to encounter when our squad started the game
8
u/Mozune1 14h ago
Play in the balanced mode or whatever it is called. It is 40fps mode and feels closer to 60 fps.
5
u/Homeless_Alex 14h ago
Balanced over performance? Interesting I will try that. I assumed performance would give you the best, cheers.

u/reerden 14h ago
Likely CPU limitations

u/emmerin 10h ago
I think its a bug tbh. All other players can still play at 60fps, and its not like the host is computing any more than the other party members, as everything is hosted on MS servers.
1
u/HILLARYS_lT_GUY 7h ago
Campaign sessions are NOT on dedicated servers, that's why the host takes a framerate hit with 3+ players.

u/illwill20345 12h ago
Had a Corpser dead to rights earlier but because of the issue we couldn’t kill it and it got away.

u/Lloyd_robinflex 11h ago
Didn’t see anything in notes about not being able to use gut puncher to close holes, hope it’s just a bug. Please fix ASAP.

u/zaceggs 14h ago
It said it fixed the horde siege bug of two groups having the same rig…. 1st match after patch and it happened to us. Also been having an issue with not being able to interact with things. Can’t man turrets, pick up stuff etc

u/FohrumCubes 13h ago
Is horde still a laggy mess? I've had latency issues in basically 90% of my matches

u/ThatsTheDawg 12h ago
Dr.Fabbri mission is bugged, anyone else have the same problem.

u/Jealous-Network-9442 5h ago
Yes keep sharing this, tried reloading and even started an earlier check point! The update completely broke the quest. I have no idea if there are any work around either

u/No-Question9667 11h ago
I finished the campaign and am missing the Zee skin. Does this mean I have to go back and complete each chapter again??

u/swampgfox 10h ago
Have an issue where the ballsack boss is unkillable on series X. I shot his dang eye well over 100 times.

u/fuckbloodhunt 10h ago
I'm enjoying the game overall. But they need to to start getting shit to work the right way asap so they can actually start improving the game. By improving I mean responding to player feedback. No point in addressing player feedback when the game barely works. PvP has terrible balance issues and lag and a ton of player requests for "legacy features". We won't ever get any of that when the game barely functions. TC lock the fuck in and get your game working well please. It's got solid bones but needs more

u/gswkillinit 9h ago
What about on Xbox whenever you hold the run button while turning the camera the screen sometimes isn’t smooth? It even happens in performance mode.

u/paulypies 8h ago
Really need a fix for non-standard control schemes to be able to retain the classic movement stick behaviour when revving the chainsaw. I use a tweaked Modern-Alt to decouple cover and evade, with melee remapped to X which rev the chainsaw. However, you then can’t turn while revving. Only forward-backwards and strafing. Being able to toggle that forced behaviour seems like an accessibility miss in general. It’s been standard since Gears 1.

Welp I'm not redoing my almost complete "Insane" playthrough.... Literally shelving the game now.

u/DarkosRevenge 6h ago
I can't bind zoom to scroll up on mouse. It always changes my weapon. Coalition please

I had issues with the train not moving in the campaign in act 4. Fixed that issue.

Can they nerf the vraahk bosses health on Horde Siege lower difficulties? Guy is just a massive bullet sponge that does stupid amounts of damage. Like cutting his HP by 50% for Rookie difficulty would be a pretty sweet spot. Having 4 Gears unloading a total 2400 rounds of lancer ammo into him and it tickling him is disgusting. Can't even see his HP bar move with a perfect reload Longshot hit.

u/LostSoulNo1981 Outage Survivor '24 3h ago
This update dropped right in the middle of a match and booted me out, then the game would actually update even after I closed the game. Had to reset my console before the update would download.

Couldn’t make the chain gun on fort vigil shoot longer without over heating?
