    @xWarPlays @CoalitionGears Same thing happened to me this morning. There's also another glitch where I didn't spawn in for atleast 3 minutes. xD xD

  • SASxSH4DOWZ Shadowz (@SASxSH4DOWZ) reported

    @RmY2410 @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears Being the first live service Gears game I think there is lots of potential for Operations all the way up to the marketing start for Gears 6. With a new Operation every 11 weeks were be at Operation 9-10 by end of 2021.

  • PapichuloJorge2 Jorge Andrade (@PapichuloJorge2) reported

    @CoalitionGears Can you fix the problem where the game freezes during horde and atleast if player rejoins because of game restart give them the reward when completed so that you dont have to restart the horde on the same difficulty just for the reward

  • HotFudge_Monday Todd Kobell (@HotFudge_Monday) reported

    @GearsofWar why is ranked matchmaking in gears 5 so ****? Literally cant play a single game without at least 1 smurf/someone who clearly is better than everyone else... fix your ******* game

  • Zmarksthespot94 Mark Zakharov (@Zmarksthespot94) reported

    @ein457 @CoalitionGears Shouldn't be a problem, you login with MS acc.

  • dardman82 Alex Ramos (@dardman82) reported

    @CoalitionGears Please give us, all banner and blood spray of the progresion of re-up 50, (stay in re-up 50) and not have banner and blood spray of Kait Diaz, and more rewards of progression. Please fix that @TC_Shauny

  • Maxwell97027631 Maxwell (@Maxwell97027631) reported

    @CoalitionGears Hey TC! Can you fix the lack of grunting when prescott rolls and a lack of screaming when he chainsaws and charges with a retro lancer!

  • SASxSH4DOWZ Shadowz (@SASxSH4DOWZ) reported

    @EnglishBean86 @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears Yeah I would say there is a healthy enough sustained playerbase that will continue to support the game through the microstransactions based skins. Gears 5 is a live service game it will live on with sustained content all the way up to the next Gears game which has to be 2023.

    @CoalitionGears Hi The coalition i have a big problem with the gears live, the thing is, every match I played takes me to the lobby and on occasion the game doesn't let me come back. Now i can't play rankeds, please I hope that u can help me , I'm "joystickero3666" in xbox

  • SASxSH4DOWZ Shadowz (@SASxSH4DOWZ) reported

    @KingAbzTV @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears With Gears 5 being the first live service Gears game I expect it to have longer life cycle than Gears 4 3 years. I also expect the game needs more time to be polished at launch as well as also considering the Pandemic working from home would delay Gears 6 dev time by a year too.
