  • Maurici61294349 Mpradoxxx (@Maurici61294349) reported

    @Bruhmoment186 @ReganRochford @GearsofWar But what did you do to solve it? I have the same issue with my PC

  • slayer_irish 🤔 (@slayer_irish) reported

    You should be embarrassed with the lag and sponging going on in #Gears5 now! Come on #Microsoft fix your trash servers! This is the worse lag that I have ever seen before! Bullets are not even registering! You can unload whole clips in players and they don't die! @CoalitionGears

  • Grindlethorpe Tʜᴀᴅ 🖖🏻 says get #FullyVaccinated💉 (@Grindlethorpe) reported

    @XboxSupport @GearsofWar Hey my gold subscription ran out & since you upped the price & got rid of 12 months I can’t afford it. Any plans to bring back silver tier subscription service where maybe the only ‘perk’ is access to online multiplayer/co-op & it doesn’t have free monthly games I don’t play? Xxx

  • robertwalton10 Robert Walton (@robertwalton10) reported

    @GearsofWar Can't have a cigar because it promotes bad health issues buy chainsaw ******** out of someone that's fine

  • SAEliteHunter 𝒮𝒜 𝐸𝓁𝒾𝓉𝑒 𝐻𝓊𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓇 (@SAEliteHunter) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar That’s really strange! Title update showed up on Gears 5 on Steam and Xbox Live versions. Unfortunately, Gears 5 on Xbox for Windows didn’t get the title update yet! Why?! Gears 5 on Xbox app for Windows used to get title update on time. Is that only me who’s having this problem?

  • SplitgateGaming jim lahey (@SplitgateGaming) reported

    @XboxSupport @GearsofWar Fix audio clips not matching up with the video. Been like that for six months. Ruining my monster game clips

  • giljos77 Josafat (@giljos77) reported

    @GearsofWar When will be available the relic weapons for the various horde modes on the Atrium map and not just for frenzy? or make them available for 50 waves mode at least, also when will you fix the glitch that makes IA soldiers just stand doing nothing and then disappear on horde?

  • Potty_Snatcher Viewtiful Jae (@Potty_Snatcher) reported

    @Andrxw452 @CoalitionGears They are in the files of a game we own……. And it’s a problem to share them even tho the game is dead and all leaks do is build a little hype lmaoo. All they do is make skins tho so maybe they just take extra extra pride in the skins no nothing else

  • ReloadedRenov RenovReloaded (@ReloadedRenov) reported

    @GearsofWar FIX YOUR GODDAMN NOODLE SERVERS

  • cheri_cake Sam (@cheri_cake) reported

    @XboxSupport @GearsofWar Blah blah blah party chat. Fix Gears.

  • Bromandudeguy2 Bromandudeguy (@Bromandudeguy2) reported

    @Jordan56318987 @IRockaah @GearsofWar Error code "estana"? Cause that's what I'm getting

  • HandAndLotion Xavier🐐 (@HandAndLotion) reported

    @GearsofWar How was I able to play two games then suddenly cant. I keep getting “Error. Unable To Connect. Try Again Later”

  • cjdig86 cjdig86 (@cjdig86) reported

    @SamTrueman93 @GearsofWar They’re gonna have a lot of trouble keeping their player base with no new content rolling out for 2+ years. I really think gears is in trouble. I personally won’t be buying 6. I’m sick of buying my skins over and over. I shouldn’t have to pay for skins that I owned in gears 4.

  • slayer_irish 🤔 (@slayer_irish) reported

    Sitting in a ranked game lobby for 10 minutes and the game won't load in! The @CoalitionGears is really bad! It's hard to believe this is a #Microsoft developer! This game is totally broken and buggy after 2 years!

  • GnashtyDamerch Dan (@GnashtyDamerch) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Can you guys please fix the spawns in every mode? The game used to be 5v5, but since it’s 4v4 now, one person gets thrown in the back way farther than the others and it’s so frustrating. I swear, a couple months ago I was the back spawn for 19 out of 20 games during my session.

  • PetersenThiery Thiery Petersen (@PetersenThiery) reported

    @CoalitionGears fix your **** servers. Second night in a row, same timing that the servers are down. 🙄

  • crazychainsaws8 Christian Rivera (@crazychainsaws8) reported

  • 2Albertrossy Albertrossy (@2Albertrossy) reported

    @adriankenny @Bloodhunt @GearsofWar still has this in gears 5. Could be a ping issue?

  • JimmyFunnellCFC Jimmy Funnell / / CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE (@JimmyFunnellCFC) reported

    @PezRadar @theGaGOD @Diablo Ah, just reread and realized my thought's not the case. So, if no big issues were to come up we'd be looking at days? And if so, and you want to address things via a patch, that would mean we'd be waiting longer, i.e. weeks, for ladder start, no? Sorry to be a bother, Adam.

  • _TuPapiLouie Lou (@_TuPapiLouie) reported

    @CoalitionGears @Kate_JRayner @UnrealEngine Anyone having issues updating Gears 5 on PC? Or is it just me?

  • PaulLivo Livo (@PaulLivo) reported

    @OculusDiaboli @CoalitionGears @Community_Gears I think it's XBL, they've been having issues this evening. Core services were down earlier.
