Gears 5 players say this is the worst re-up ever

Gears of War 5 is finally here. Many gamers expected this release with enthusiasm. However, high expectations can bring disappointment, and Gears 5 is no exception.

Many users complained that the re-up in this game is not rewarding at all. One user said the following on the official forum:

Anyone know what the Rewards are? I have reupped once… and it just looks like in level 1? No background on your level while you play, cant find a banner no skin nothing

So, if you upgrade to a higher level, the rewards are far too little. Some gamers reported that they received some almost insignificant items such as a new camo after re-up.

Gears 5 players are disappointed by re-up rewarding

Players didn’t even receive an emblem like in the previous versions of Gears of War.

Speaking of the previous versions, Gears of War 4 players received three elite packs after re-up. These packs could cost even 15$, so, they were consistent prizes.

Rewarding makes the game more enjoyable, so this is a major downside of the game to the point that quite a few gamers don’t want to play Gears of War anymore.

However, some players said that this complaint is exaggerated. Gamers should not play Gears 5 only for the rewards, because that is not the point of the game.

Also, quite a few users mentioned that Gears of War 4 had the same problem shortly after release. Therefore, gamers can hope this is the case for Gears 5 as well.

It remains to be seen how developers will tackle this negative feedback regarding re-up rewards.
