Overview

This section covers "Weapon Setup" on the app, featured in our Gears 5 GAMEPACK for the STRIKEPACK HORIZON™ controller adapter & powered by the STRIKEPACK CENTRAL™ smartphone app.

When you are first starting out, you should just focus on setting up the first 4 of the 8 available Weapon Slots on the Dashboard, so that you at least have slots setup to use with a full in-game set of weapons.

Weapon Setup

Gears 5 now uses a D-Pad style layout by default, so your Weapon Slot layout & slot names will probably differ from what is shown. Updated images coming soon.

Hold your finger on the first slot, until its Weapon Selector appears.

You can toggle whether to Reset Anti-Recoil or Reset Active Reload on Select, or leave your current values alone:

Everything is organized into Weapon Categories that you can collapse & expand. The "GENERIC" category contains a selection of GENERIC: Fire Modes.

You have the option of assigning a GENERIC: Fire Mode, such as Regular Fire for use with a Fully Automatic Weapon, or Rapid Fire for use with a Semi-Automatic Weapon, which will be fine for UNSUPPORTED weapons.

  • Each GENERIC: Fire Mode will be covered on the next page.

  • Later in this manual, you will learn how to apply Anti-Recoil & Bloom Control with Quick Edit.


For the absolute best experience 🥳, ignore the GENERIC category & assign a SUPPORTED Weapon from the available Weapon Categories instead. If you are unsure as to which in-game weapon you will be using, assign your favourite weapon:

This will apply an Optimized Active Reload timing for use with the Auto Reload M.O.D.

Now repeat the process and assign a weapon for the second, third, and forth slot.

Even after you have assigned a Weapon Slot, for your convenience, you can tap the Weapon Slot to quickly cycle between its assigned Fire Mode or Weapon, Regular Fire, and Rapid Fire.
