- Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) support status is unknown.
Issues unresolved
Explicit Multi-adapter support
- Support for multiple GPUs is being worked on.[9]
Framerate drops after 1809 Windows 10 Update
- Framerate on ultra settings varies from 120 to 30 fps independently from hardware. It's known issue, that devs are aware of, but as they stated on the official forum, they are focusing on Gears 5 and patching Gears 4.[10] Some users report, that after lowering shadows setting to low, the game is playable.
Issues fixed
"Your graphics hardware is not optimized for this game" error on launch
- This error occurs on laptops with switchable graphics. The current solution is to change the primary GPU global setting.[11]
