We have another update coming to gears of war 4 this Tuesday

Title Updates are large scale updates that require downloads and allow us to change more pieces within the game. We also have other updates that we can do on the backend without downloads needed but we are limited to what we can change and control with those updates. Below you will find the notes for the first large Title Update for Gears of War 4. We also have additional updates to a few items we talked about last week.

This Title Update will be hitting on November 1st.


Title Update November 1 2016


New Maps

Two new maps will be added to the developer playlist on November 1st for Season Pass owners and will be available in standard rotation and private games on November 8th for everyone.
The Developer Playlist will contain Versus Dodgeball and Arms Race modes for squads up to three large and Horde players on Normal difficulty.

Weapon Tuning Changes
(These changes may occur a few hours after the Title Update hits. We will update people once these go live.)

We have made some changes to the Competitive Lancer and Gnasher. The goal was to try to smooth out the damage falloff to provide a more consistent feel, without sacrificing the skill.

Lancer
Very short range damage has been slightly reduced.
Gnasher
Very short range damage slightly reduced.
Short range damage slightly increased.
Active damage boost ratio slightly increased to offset damage reduction.
Stopping power completely removed.
Hammerburst body damage has been significantly reduced in Core tuning. Headshot damage has only been slightly reduced to maintain the skill of the weapon.
Body damage significantly reduced.
Headshot damage slightly reduced.
Active reload cooldown increased by 2 seconds.
Fixed an issue where Escalation weapon respawn timers would sometimes not be consistent
All secondary weapons (minus the Longshot) are at 60s respawns.
The Longshot, Shock and Incendiary grenades are at 90s respawns.
All power weapons are at 120s respawns.
