Gratz for the release!


Sadly - no GOG no gain...

[Al_Bundy]

Great, now it's available! I bought it and discovered:

1. The audio is still a disaster. The members of my team still can't pronounce AYE. No, they still say: ääääffffff...what the hell kind of confirmation is äääffff?

2. After the first mission, there's a fatal error and the game crashes to desktop...great—and now I can't continue playing because this fatal error prevents me from progressing—after the first mission...aren't you actually testing anything?

On top of that, there are still muddy textures and generally rather poor graphics—for it's supposed to be UE5...you don't notice it.

I'm think iam going to refund the game now, because it's no use to me...since I can't continue playing thanks to the fatal error....Absolutely fantastic, PGI


Played through the first mission again, and again at the end of the mission: fatal error.....

My advice to everyone: stay away --- wait for someone at PGI to patch the whole thing....


Update :

I've now found a "solution":
Set the graphics to medium, then it works...but as soon as you go to high or max - fatal error.

So, despite having a 7900xtx, I have to set the already muddy graphics to medium (which really doesn't look good anymore) to be able to play this...omg PGI, please do your job and release a hotfix for this...and please use a different engine in future games, this softening effect of UE5 is really awful.

It's a Clan thing; "Aff" instead of "Yes", "Neg" instead of "No".

A shame, does PGI plan on releasing both on GOG later on?

I have a 7900XT and ran into the same error, gonna try your solution.

What mission did you get the error? I got it at the end of Iron Wall.

EDIT: Totally worked. Thanks man!

Learn Clanner Lingo. They say "Aff" as shortform for Affirmative and "Neg" as shortform for Negative, rather than yes/aye and no. When used in a question, it's Quiaff or Quineg, adding a short form of "Query" on there. Stravag is a Clanner curse you will probably hear used.

You are playing a Clan themed DLC and apparently do not know Clanners have their own lingo and do not speak with contractions. So perhaps do some research before you complain next time, Quiaff?

Bought the DLC and tried playing. Impossible. Too much stutter.
Thought it was the drivers, updated to 25.5.1, same thing. Stutter.
Tried the regular MW5:Clans, no problem. Everything is smooth.
Something was changed on Ghost Bear Flash Storm that makes it unplayable.
Fully patched game (Steam automagically does it), AMD CPU and AMD GPU.

Again, have no problem on the regular MW5C game, only in this GBFS DLC.

R3 4100 and RX 550? Settings? Details please, so that someone might have a chance of helping you.

No problem on my end (Epic version) with R5 7600X (eco mode) and RTX 4060Ti @ UWQHD and high/max and DLSS quality. The main game does reach 60 FPS (global FPS lock on my system to save energy), Ghost Bear is roughly 20% worse in performance - on occasion even dips under 30 FPS briefly. Might be something related to autocannon fire. Or is it the Elemental's AI?

R7 5700X3D, 32GB DRR4-3600, RX 7800XT.

Had a reading on the Steam boards and someone mentioned the first mission was a stutter fest, so lowered the difficulty to Normal, suffered through the first mission and on the second mission everything was stutter free.
Something on the first mission causes it. No idea what.
