Gears 5

[Ginja 0]

Jimmy and I have spent 2 evenings this week trying to play through this co-op. So many glitches that have led to reloading the game.

Including but not limited to: Character getting stuck in a horse, button config being changed after death, being unable to back out of a screen as prompt greyed out and general connection issues. It's even caused his PC to shut down on about 3 occasions.

Last night we progressed our game clock 1.5 hours in 3.5 hours of play, and about 3 of 6 on Tuesday. It's so frustrating because the game is really good when it works.

 

On the plus side it's a beautiful looking game...

Are you doing x-play between Xbox and pc? Is it just as bad in single player?

Been playing in co-op on 2 xboxes. Had a couple of freezes for player 2, but making solid progress. Must be a crossplay/ PC issue?

Must be, Jimmy sucks.

Haven't had issues playing solo on my PC yet. I'm enjoying it though the open world bit feels a little pointless to me so far. It's just 2 minutes of holding W in an empty field until you get to do a gunfight. Gears is as good as ever though, now everyone else has stopped aping the cover shooting thing it's actually kind of unique again. Glad they haven't done a Halo with it in that respect and tried to make it into something it's not.
