Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Foo1189 ISO (@Foo1189) reported

    @FenrisulfrSr93 @Om_Art2 @GearsofWar And also in g3 Adam said he forced it to infect and evolve in him meaning healthy humans had an immunity to it I doubt the people of mercy did since rustling was a heavy issue

  • PapaAwiz PapaAwiz (@PapaAwiz) reported

    @RyanMcAlpine5 @CoalitionGears Yeah over on the subreddit there's a thread or 2 asking about it. 100% seems like an issue specific to G5 and not console related. Only happens with G5. Sucks too bc it tends to happen when I'm having a good time, lol.

  • SeanHibblen Sean (@SeanHibblen) reported

    @PezRadar I refuse to purchase Blizzard products until they sort out the internal work respect and boundary issues they have.

  • difame_ Xala6 (@difame_) reported

    @CoalitionGears I have a problem with my profile but it only happens with my profile, especially it takes a long time to connect to servers and accept invitations, any solution?

  • Ladydane66 Ladydane66 (@Ladydane66) reported

    @GearsofWar Want 5 players back and King of the hill on competitive/ranked play. why must you always "fix" what's not broken but "not fix" what is broken?

  • yarik_simple Yarik (@yarik_simple) reported

    @BlizzardCS @PezRadar When you fix sound quality for Nintendo Switch version?

  • mwp565733 RedOctober (@mwp565733) reported

    @PezRadar I like the possibility of Class change, interesting solution to the single character problem

  • slayer_irish Sabastian (@slayer_irish) reported

    Fix your trash *** servers! There is no excuse for #Microsoft game to have lag this bad...Do some maintenance to your servers #Gears5 @CoalitionGears @XboxP3

  • SSdirewolf Tim/SSdirewolf (@SSdirewolf) reported

    So people have been reporting this issue for over a year about how Gears5 will shut off our consoles. Why are you ignoring this @CoalitionGears

  • GGZiiSocial GGZii Social (@GGZiiSocial) reported

    So @CoalitionGears literally has my CV but can't seem to contact me over an issues thats stemmed over 13 months. I'm asking for an open discussion. It doesn't need to be public, just contact me.

  • TheMoralSupport TheEmotionalSupport (@TheMoralSupport) reported

    @PezRadar Sorry to bother you, but I had a quick question: Can we expect D2R 2.4 to come with a fix for the "Chat Bug" that often stops players from being able to communicate in game? We would really appreciate that.

  • JasonLarge90 BritishGodzilla (@JasonLarge90) reported

    Does anyone know why my Series X turns off, whenever i play Gears 5? I have no problem with other games, just Gears 5. #GearsofWar #XboxSeriesX

  • DrunkJug CG (@DrunkJug) reported

    @CoalitionGears hit detection in your multiplayer is abysmal. Fix your broken game. It gets worse by the day.

  • Wretchedpaul PaulShallPerish (@Wretchedpaul) reported from Salinas, California

    @Hydrone_ What’s crazy is that in 2 years of support of the game. @CoalitionGears couldn’t fix the game at all (other than the horrendous UI at launch) I’m scared for 6 when it finally drops.

  • ptatprat reese (@ptatprat) reported

    @CoalitionGears you all need to fix the hit registration when it comes to headshots in osok. Game is complete *** because of the number of hit markers you get that should be headshots

  • PapaAwiz PapaAwiz (@PapaAwiz) reported

    I genuinely wish I enjoyed Halo as much as I enjoyed Gears. Like as a whole. This issue w G5 shutting down my Series X is a complete killjoy. Everytime I'm having fun, shuts down. & @CoalitionGears to my knowledge just doesn't comment on it anywhere. Clearly there's an issue.

  • Ciancr Cian Crowdy (@Ciancr) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar I'm trying to play gears 5 but it keeps crashing,no message or anything, xbox series x just turns off. Any reports of this, if so is there a fix for it

  • LiveCapim Capim (@LiveCapim) reported

    @Parasidian @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Good luck. Its gonna be hard to fix what they did on Gears 5. Bring back the ******* war!

  • skyzerr1 skyzerr (@skyzerr1) reported

    @GearsofWar Bros have been asking for MP achievements fix for while but no luck

  • RTIMM12 RTIMM1 (@RTIMM12) reported

    @PezRadar I hope the next fix is proper multiplayer on the console ports.

  • trypnos Trypnos (@trypnos) reported

    @PezRadar Please tell them to fix whirlwind man… and chat bug? Do you even play D2r

  • Spike_935 Spike💙💛🏳️‍🌈🔞 BLM (@Spike_935) reported

    @Angelo60305328 @GearsofWar I must've had a completely different experience from you cuz none of those were never a issue for me. I'm not sure what you are talking about with ups being too fast, like Up A's? In general Gears needs to be slowed down, this ultra fast pace garbage ain't working

  • Varlaha Varlaha (@Varlaha) reported

    @PezRadar Hey Adam the App Store news about Diablo Immortal pre-orders are broken in some regions. Is there anything you can tell us about this? :-)

  • SteBo56763104 SteBo (@SteBo56763104) reported

    @GearsofWar fix y’all game please

  • Kisekienova Johnny Yu (@Kisekienova) reported

    @PezRadar You have time posting stupid pictures, bragging about your experience in the industry, but have no time making a blue post in official forum nor actually having the time to fix the damn server just so this 2.4 crap ain't delaying anymore. Great community manger, super great.

  • GGZiiSocial GGZii Social (@GGZiiSocial) reported

    @CoalitionGears @Official_GDC @Kate_JRayner I request to know why my account isn't allowed to sign in online. It's been over a year.

    @PezRadar At your service. Come into dm

  • kristinm90 Kristin M. (@kristinm90) reported

    I love video games and especially the @Diablo franchise but the delays in #D2R ladder and any meaningful #D4 updates is a terrible look for Blizzard. How can you not even fix D2R server issues 6 months post launch? @PezRadar @RodFergusson
