  • MallekThorne Thorne Mallek (@MallekThorne) reported

    @GearsofWar So when are you gonna fix the kicking issue with The Atrium Horde map.

  • JosephS46214980 Joseph Stout (@JosephS46214980) reported

  • REDY0TA R E D YOTA (@REDY0TA) reported

    @sightlessKombat @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Ah I could see that being a problem.. even ruining runs possibly. I'll still have to try it sometime.

  • xDroopsXx Lord Droops 🤘 (@xDroopsXx) reported

    Come on @CoalitionGears there was an error on my match and I get banned?? I didn't even quit, **** is you talking about?

  • BrianNe21963490 apurplegorrilla (@BrianNe21963490) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Yeah I bought the black steel savage kantus twice and it lets me select him once I get into a match I’m a Different character. You guys gotta fix this , I was literally charged twice, and can’t even play as the character. 😐😐

  • NerdyJustice Veteran Nerd (@NerdyJustice) reported

    @CoalitionGears Did you address the issue where players would get 0 points in matches where someone quit?

  • sightlessKombat SightlessKombat #GAAD2021 (@sightlessKombat) reported

    @REDY0TA @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Running into walls isn't really the issue. It's getting stuck and being unable to progress. Escape Ping has been a literal game changer in that regard already for me with this great mode, even in the small amount of time since Op 7 dropped.

  • _destrie Destrie (@_destrie) reported

    @CoalitionGears Purchase issues fixed before game braking Omen issue? Okay . .

  • Kid_Omega__ Kid ømega (@Kid_Omega__) reported

    @CoalitionGears The servers are still broken. I can't do more than one competitive game in a row. It always crashes on the second match and then I get match penalties.... The second game won't even load. It just says looking for players for about 15 minutes then I'm forced to quit

  • masonbrendan316 vaping is my right (@masonbrendan316) reported

    @HugoLeclaire2 @kothtdm98 @GearsofWar Just need to fix this crap gam

  • VengfulO adildospider (@VengfulO) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Fix the omen

  • MortalHeavans Mortal Heavens (@MortalHeavans) reported

    @GnasherPower @LerbertShemon @GearsofWar Right! I do too, it's not an advantage anymore. A lot of people don't understand that most PC players use a controller for gears, at least I do. Doesn't feel right with K and M, even then you can use K and M on Xbox if that's your problem.

  • iUltraxx eQ Ultrax (@iUltraxx) reported

    @TC_Shauny @LukeVexT @CoalitionGears Ye weekly leaderboards are fine but is there gonna be a "fix" for alltime/season leaderboards, would lobe to see it

  • ThinlyC ThinlyCutChips (@ThinlyC) reported

    @TC_Shauny @CoalitionGears Hey are you guys aware of an issue with the in game stats page having reset all the stats back to 0? I’ve had all Escape and Horde maps mastered, but now it’s all been reset. Is this something to be worried about? (Campaign and PVP stats also reset)

  • RitualHRS H Ω Я S Ξ (@RitualHRS) reported

    @TC_Shauny @LukeVexT @CoalitionGears Its still broken. Rankeds is now called who play more are higher?

  • MichaelRoss2428 Rossflex (@MichaelRoss2428) reported

    @GearsofWar Time to fix the seasonal and all time competitive leaderboard score bug/visual glitch. Score per round and per match is completely broke. Weekly is working at least

  • Vernon_McFadden Vernon McFadden All Lives Matter (@Vernon_McFadden) reported

    @PezRadar Which is my point. There is a topic on the forums about where the patch notes for the next PTR are. I guess at least one member has issues with 2.7.0. Impatience gets the best of us sometimes.

  • IAmChrisJalbert ©h®¡§ Jª|߀®†™ 💉Fully vaccinated 💉 (@IAmChrisJalbert) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix your servers

  • OptionPence MopedSpeed (@OptionPence) reported

    @MallekThorne @GearsofWar Fix the KOTH coming back

  • Daviddrossos1 David Drossos (@Daviddrossos1) reported

    @CoalitionGears @TC_Shauny I keep getting an error code each time I try too load into the atrium horde map you’ve been removed from game you’ve been kicked from game is this getting fixed or what

  • _JU29RO JU29RO (@_JU29RO) reported

    @TC_Shauny @LukeVexT @CoalitionGears is there any server problem? I can't log in

  • Centurion_47th Centurion 47th (@Centurion_47th) reported

    Dear @GearsofWar, @TC_Shauny, @tc_sera, I don’t know if there are already solutions or next updates about patch or fix for game chat and transcription voice in text. I am deaf gamer and disappointed for missing feature accessibility. Better communication makes better team work...

  • Capnjazz2 Cap n jazz (@Capnjazz2) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix control spawns . Enemies spawn on you. I know this has always been in gears but come on.

  • Ghost85856707 Ghost (@Ghost85856707) reported

    @Lyserg92 @CoalitionGears These morons don't care. Soon tell loose the console players to other games. Put back the PC markings so i can block them one at a time and fix the blocking system

  • mugglemama13 MuggleMama (@mugglemama13) reported

    @PezRadar @Lord__Fluffy Agreed. I am READY. Also, we get HBO Max free with our internet service, so that's cool. 😎

  • shaunacuslgend Shaunacus (@shaunacuslgend) reported

    I gave it a couple of days now before hoping on to see the new update finally after all the bugs and glitches. This update as well as the 6 previous OPs is solid. Again I will say forcing cross play isn’t acceptable but other than that issue everything is great! @CoalitionGears

  • BetsCryptoSt Crypto Street Bets (@BetsCryptoSt) reported

    @GearsofWar explain why you got rid of KOTH. The ranking system is broken with people blatantly cheating on there, disabling playing against PC players. You have officially killed GOW it's only took you 15 years but you've done it. I'm not spending a single dime on this anymore.

  • TC_Shauny TC Shauny (@TC_Shauny) reported

    @Daviddrossos1 @CoalitionGears The issue's been flagged!

  • dog_yerin dog yerin (@dog_yerin) reported

    @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears FIX THE POINT SYSTEM YOU CLOWNS PPL SHOULD NOT HAVE 4 million points and have a negative Kd with barely any games played it’s a joke.
