Sad night is what happened yesterday when the Rise beat the Pittsburgh Knights in the last game of the Gears 5 eSports. A championship that has given a lot of emotions and that has gone less and less over the years that it has lasted. Today this contest ends and therefore the content support for Gears 5.
You may not be interested in these competitions, but it’s ultimately what kept an active community after The Coalition dropped the game. It’s sad, a great game abandoned by its creators that was supported by the community, a fate no one wishes for their favorite game. With the end of professional competitions, it is possible that much of the support that was provided will disappear, that the servers will be empty and that loading times will increase.
The farewell to Gears 5 dedicated servers is approaching
And no, that’s not alarmism, that’s what will surely happen. We have been suffering from this for a few months now, and it is that the Gears 5 servers are degrading in their support, the lost packet is obvious and the lag is infernal; This all adds up to The Coalition leaving the game in a hurry, they may be very focused on their new game, but leaving a big sorry multiplayer was a low blow for all active players. The possibility of dedicated servers disappearing is great, rumors are circulating and we won’t be able to stop it.
We still have to wait for an official announcement, but for now we say goodbye to a Gears 5 that has suffered since its release from the mistakes of a negligent studio and with big internal problems. As we’ve seen, The Coalition is desperate for staff, but we haven’t seen many devs leave the game, is anything big coming for Xbox?
Thanks to #GearsFam for the support over the years. https://t.co/01Q4ozHAkf pic.twitter.com/AbDaEePMHh
