    @LordThundyr @PezRadar @MrLlamaSC If I'm not mistaken this is intentional. The issue was that the game returned a broken code string in the messaging, which was fixed.

    @CoalitionGears needs some help, playing Gears 5 and my game hits a glitch where the world drops out and I can’t get past the part. It’s in Act 4: The Fall when the monster is chasing you on the truck

    @PezRadar Please fix Dragon Strike prior to D2R Season 3: -> DTail has bugged speed. There is a mismatch of speed between client and server. #d2r

    @CoalitionGears Hey, I'm currently playing through the gears games in order with my son, but there's an issue with my profile on gears 2. We've got to aftermath, but the game crashes at the title screen if I'm logged in. Google search shows as a known issue, any help appreciated!

    @GoldGloveTV @CoalitionGears @Xbox We got a UE that wasn't completed and told they can't recreate 2007 for us. Idk man. They would have to fix UE so it works on pc & xbox fluidly and get remakes done for gears 2 & 3. Just don't see it happening unfortunately.

  • ArthursWingman
    Derfal Cadern (@ArthursWingman) reported

    @Snoopydoopydoo9 @heytred @GearsofWar Reality is a game shouldn’t need new content immediately after release. The problem is it was released without content that should have been in the game to begin with like forge and couch coop.

    @PezRadar I am stressed at your app telling you you're stressed. So now I need that app to fix the stress of looking at this stress screenshot. What app is this lol

    @Koogat_VT @GearsofWar gears 2 pvp isn't bad...but it's too slow, gears 3 pvp was much better...if they fix the flaws a great remastered could come out.

  • DoctorHorde
    Eesa Khalil (@DoctorHorde) reported

    @_Rawr93 @GearsofWar From what I remember, once you get to a very high round in zombies, only certain strategies become viable, like running in a circle, abusing wonder weapons, traps and such. I think gears 5 would have a similar issue where only certain classes would be viable for the long term

    Half the time playing games on pc is about repairing anti ******* cheat!!! Installed #gears5 anti cheat not working. To fix it I had to repair battlefield 2042 anti cheat and then it works but come up with an integrity error and kicks me out of any multiplayer @CoalitionGears

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Gears 5 servers have big problems right now. Can you do something about it? Thanks Im from the Eu

    @ProjectXbox17 And they lost the GOTY award to @GearsofWar, including EGM, which I had an issue of with their awards pages. Gears was definitely on there.

  • CharlesJT1977
    CharlesJT (@CharlesJT1977) reported

    @PezRadar @RodFergusson @PezRadar In patch notes for 2.6, the devs fixed an issue for Druid’s Shockwave skill doing unintended amount of damage. What about similar issue for Paladin where Concentration bug increases damage for Hammers at 50%? Where's the equal treatment?

    Aaron (@Captain_Boltoks) reported

    @epiconyxfreak1 @GearsofWar @ElationEsports Wow, this took me back to better days. I miss the gore and body shots this game had. It wasn't perfect, it had it's issues. But, MAN I wish I could go back in time and play it in it's glory days one more time.

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar What is going on with the lag? The game has been so laggy lately and taking forever to find a game. Can’t be because I’m streaming I’ve already restarted my router and heard I’m not the only one. Help?

    NerdNationCreations (@nerd4nation) reported

    Hearing @CoalitionGears cancelled a bunch of ips to make another #gears6 is sad and this is the problem with Microsoft, i have loved gears of war but it does not move the needle forward you need to stop playing it safe. These ips need a break and that includes #Halo

    @therealcliffyb its up to @EpicGames @GearsofWar to fix it with patch update if it about the shotgun roady run

    Nate (@Nynoen) reported

    @GearsofWar Once again, can you FIX online match making?!?! Over 10 ******* minutes to play 1 game with the worse ping ever!! Plus, when was the last update for the game, you obviously don't give a **** about your loyal fans and it's clearly showing. 🤬🖕🖕

    @CoalitionGears Hey it would be really cool of you guys to fix the performance issues of gears ultimate on pc. This has been a problem for well over a year now :(

    JohnRPG (@iSalvation5) reported

    I want @CoalitionGears to make the next #GearsofWar to be a Live Service Looter Shooter. With yearly expansions, season passes, and more. They are better than 343 and I think they can pull it off.

    Anyone else having issues with creating a co-op game or trying to join a MP match on #GearsOfWar4 #Gears4? @GearsofWar @Community_Gears Guest account doesn’t work at all, any fix - that would work?

    @_Rawr93 @GearsofWar Should have always been like that. It might fix the boring horde they've managed to create between 4 and 5
