    @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

  • Colaman22 ®🕹️RSM🎮⚙️ (@Colaman22) reported

    @GearsofWar @GearsEsports why am I banned for a network crash beyond my control?

  • fabian_massaro Fabian Massaro (@fabian_massaro) reported

    @CoalitionGears Fix GOW5's multiplayer, it's really disgusting, its servers only benefit North American players and the rest are lagged, everyone comes out of multiplayer match because the experience is terrible, you can't play when you move lagged and they kill you from pointless distances.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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? :-)

  • PLamberz Pascal Lamberz (@PLamberz) reported

  • Wael71595751 XboxGamer19 (@Wael71595751) reported

    @FormoxX @SASxSH4DOWZ @GearsofWar Why are you even following this page if your a hater and have some sort of problem with gears of war? If you don't like it don't follow! You looks stupid commenting while telling other people not to play a game you don't like 🙄🙄🙄

  • 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?

  • truthyjason Jason (@truthyjason) reported

    @PezRadar @RodFergusson When are you going to fix the game for console players? I haven’t played in months w hell immunes as a completely solo experience. We should have had proper lobbies/chat/matchmaking at launch which I naively assumed it did. I hope you haven’t forgotten us

  • 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.

  • RTIMM12 RTIMM1 (@RTIMM12) reported

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

  • 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.

  • JasonLarge90 BritishGodzilla (@JasonLarge90) reported

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • cintron813 Jimster Cintrón (@cintron813) reported

    @CoalitionGears Any update on the XBL campaign coop not working?

  • shinoksbi Davidmm (@shinoksbi) reported

    @CoalitionGears fix the problem on xbox series x, you only punish with 9 games why it turns off by itself

  • KevinNjegovan Kevin Njegovan (@KevinNjegovan) reported

    @GearsofWar Please fix offline customization for 5

  • SeanHibblen Sean (@SeanHibblen) reported

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

  • nycmikeypr . (@nycmikeypr) reported

    @GearsofWar can you fix the hackers on pc

  • 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.

  • DrunkJug CG (@DrunkJug) reported

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

  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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?

  • yarik_simple Yarik (@yarik_simple) reported

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

  • 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

  • ZoidCTF Zoid (@ZoidCTF) reported

    @MysticalOS @PezRadar There are several issues with that request, you're basically asking for patch level selection. This results in a QA nightmare, having to run servers of different patches, further divides the community on servers, etc. The original Diablo II is still there for you.
