  • desitoreador Desi Toreador (@desitoreador) reported

    @TristanNyc_ @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Submit a refund request through Microsoft. Don't waste your time in creating a support ticket with TC. Had a similar issue with Anthony Carmine

  • TC_Shauny TC Shauny (@TC_Shauny) reported

    @smutcookie @GearsofWar @GearsEsports Hey there, sent the Omen stuff over and it doesn't appear to be bugged, the other two issues are bugged though!

  • xBLINDEDx21 Mikey G (@xBLINDEDx21) reported

    @CoalitionGears Why is there a problem with every single update or something you guys do with the game did you hire a bunch of kids to program your game? It has now gotten to the point where you guys update the game or add something there are sooo many problems 😓

  • OurTacticalNoOb YourTacticalTrap (@OurTacticalNoOb) reported

    Day 58 of waiting on that official communication about a ban. I literally got a ban overturned by Blizzard in 20mins after they investigated the whole issue. Why can they handle a ticket in minutes, but you can't manage one in 2 months? @tc_sera @TC_Shauny @CoalitionGears

  • Werd_TTV Drew Haircut (@Werd_TTV) reported

    @GearsofWar So is anyone else having a problem getting into this FFA event?? Or is it just me?

  • MIComputerTech MIComputerTech (@MIComputerTech) reported

    @R3CLUSIV3 @xBLINDEDx21 @CoalitionGears From someone's project do know that Gears 3's networking (at least peer to peer) has delay lag on purpose. Basically it's hardcoded to clog host's tickrate, so the performance can pretty much stay on par with the official dedis. Removing it allows much better network performance.

    @GnashtyDamerch @CoalitionGears Skill based matchmaking is broken, always has been. Thats why bots were in masters.

  • HypnoS79517734 HypnoS (@HypnoS79517734) reported

    @CoalitionGears Great now yall just need to fix the gnasher itself

  • xWarPlays WAR (@xWarPlays) reported

    @Snowgee87 @GearsofWar Yeah the game seems broken to me

  • bear_danny19911 Danny (@bear_danny19911) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar This game mode is awful & full of no lifers with 130+ ping this game already has a horrible health regeneration problem so you made a game mode that makes that worse lol with no understanding of how much health we gain for damage 1 pellet shots everywhere this game mode is a mess

  • JuanC287 Juan Claros (@JuanC287) reported

    @CoalitionGears Matchmaking error plenty abound! What's the fix!!

  • EDWIN75153528 EDWIN (@EDWIN75153528) reported

    @CoalitionGears EdWin077540 In gears of war 4 I have a problem with the server, could you help me, I have already been with a platoon without connection for a month and no more it does not connect

  • smutcookie o CynderWolf o (@smutcookie) reported

    @TC_Shauny @GearsofWar @GearsEsports I say that because after getting damaged just a little the cog is already fully outlined and visible where before it would only start to get outlined and wasn't too noticeable yet. Thank you for replying to me about my issues and sorry for being a nuisance

  • MallekThorne Thorne Mallek (@MallekThorne) reported

    @CoalitionGears Like, I get the effect is supposed to be like, A little wonky and strange, But it comes off as heavily oppressive. I was having trouble seeing where people were at cuz of the dark corners and people just moving too fast to see what was going on. The gimmick itself is good though.

  • R3CLUSIV3 R3CLUS3 (@R3CLUSIV3) reported

    @xBLINDEDx21 @CoalitionGears Gears has always had horrible servers. I played gears 2 a fairly absurd amount, despite the awful lag issues. I gave up on the series after 3 (tried 5 for a bit, but didn’t feel like being angry playing a video game)

  • BoomyMiike BoomyMiike (@BoomyMiike) reported

    @CoalitionGears Hey umm... thanks a lot for this news, i wanted to ask, is there a way to recover my old progress from gears 3? Like returning to a old cloud save file or something? Because my brother went to play online with my account when that issue happened :/

  • david54054906 david (@david54054906) reported

    @HilfigureP @GearsofWar Smh they gotta fix this

  • TerryHB_ Terry (@TerryHB_) reported

    @BoomyMiike @CoalitionGears The progression lose was actually an issue before hand. Seems to be a problem with Gears 3 itself

  • HFXgamingmemory HFXgamingmemories (@HFXgamingmemory) reported

    @GearsofWar Can you fix the lag that occurs when dropping the mechanics turret in horde?

  • LamarjbYT 🐬🌙 L̶a̶m̶a̶r̶j̶b̶ (@LamarjbYT) reported
