  • Aedrothica Aedrothica (@Aedrothica) reported

    @disbabydntcry @LvxGoW @GearsofWar Clearly not when new content is being released on various game throughout lockdown and patches etc being added to fix and change aspects of games you utter nonse.

  • cheesecutta Cheese Cutta (@cheesecutta) reported

    @BChapy @CoalitionGears I think it will be fine if they stick to releasing maps every 5-6 weeks. Provided most of them are new and not straight ports. Hopefully some of the drops will have 2 maps (1 new and 1 port). But i agree, the biggest issue is only releasing 1 map after 15 weeks, and it’s a port.

  • brotherlono xBROTHER LONOx (@brotherlono) reported

    hey @GearsofWar @TC_Kilo think there is a sound bug sometimes in middle off a game suddenly no sound but the sound off xbox menu still working so i guess it come from the game. when i restart game back to normal. friends have the same issue. xbox série x

    @syndicateGOW @MiIIlsy @GearsofWar I feel like what killed gears 4 is the huge driver issues plaguing it and the matchmaking even now I can find games almost instantly until I get a 3 stack or more then for some reason it either gets super high 5 minutes ish or we don't find them

    @Anthony2690xo @GoldenH77483918 @GearsofWar One of my problems is that when I played the original trilogy of gears of war everyone had to grind to get good at gears but gears 5 people who never played gears of war before didn’t take any time to get good because gears 5 made it easy for everyone to get good

    @GearsofWar @TC_Kilo @tc_sera Fix the versus EXTREME TAKES 3+ YEARS TO GRIND achievements, they are literally making the game look Bad, with the modes available it is imposible to get without ENCOURAGING gamers to boost KILLS in privates

  • BKramer92 Benjamin K. (@BKramer92) reported

    @GearsEsports @GearsofWar Are there any developments being made to server latency. I’d say that it’s about the only issue with the game at this point..

  • Andrxw452 Andrxw452 (@Andrxw452) reported

    @REDY0TA @GearsofWar Sorry didn’t see this It’s the one with the rocket salve in the middle, and has sniper either side of the map You can easily be spawn trapped which is a big issue

  • FtwAllin GG ALLIN FTW (@FtwAllin) reported

    @GearsofWar I wonder if they'll add a broken achievement for him like they did with Batista. FIX UR GAME! It's pathetic that 3rd party games work better than a 1st party IP.

  • bear_danny19911 Danny (@bear_danny19911) reported

    @xRhys92x @killer_demonic @GearsofWar Yea but the problem is we are getting 1 map which is a port from 4 & 3 characters for the first 6 weeks that’s absolute garbage

    @CoalitionGears hello everyone !!! I am having issue in running gears 5 on my laptop (i9750h and 1660 ti). My system is not running at full capacity with this game. Please help me resolve this issue !!

  • Ayato_Zechs Ayato Zechs (@Ayato_Zechs) reported

    @GearsofWar Account is still broken after Feb. 9th update. No XP, Class XP, Tour of Duty and Medal Progression. All have stopped. Missed out on all of the double XP for the 2 weeks and the Riftworm skins from the Valentine's Torque Bow Tag event. Won't be able to do anything in OPs 6.

    @GearsofWar please fix your ****** matchmaking I actually swear I'm sick and tired of getting into lobbies where I'm diamond and theres ******* gold 1 people on my team so it's an instant win for the other team honestly getting ****** off now @CoalitionGears gizmo your ****!!!!

  • km16 Jeff Griffith (@km16) reported

    @GearsofWar They sorted out the lack of playable characters, and the store issues, but how do thet keep dropping the ball with maps? They have known its a problem, they acknowledged its a problem, they even stopped supporting Escape to focus on this problem, and yet it is still a problem.

  • YaBoyJUMP Hardwork (@YaBoyJUMP) reported

    @CoalitionGears your game is broken. You ruined @gearsofwar smh... back to @CallofDuty

  • DavidMo82920423 David Moctezuma (@DavidMo82920423) reported

    @GearsEsports @GearsofWar This company is a ******* joke, why did it put me in a game but then no One else joins?? Fix the ******* matchmaking on gears 5 you stupid *****

  • BChapy BChaps (@BChapy) reported

    @cheesecutta @CoalitionGears Yup. Going forward it shouldn't be an issue. Just sucks that it needs to start off this way :/

  • Frod054 Craig (@Frod054) reported

    @GearsofWar Hopefully op6 will come with a patch to fix the movement

  • Lukewarrrm Luke warm (@Lukewarrrm) reported

    @GearsofWar Is this when you fix matchmaking in aus ?

  • Rhaegar8642 Rhaegar (@Rhaegar8642) reported

    @Ean68607654 @GearsofWar Then maybe they can stop flooding the comments with constant complaints. Every game has its problems even Fifa sends quite a few updates fixing bugs and they’ve been around since 1995 . No game is perfect

  • BChapy BChaps (@BChapy) reported

    @AShinyRayquaza @CoalitionGears That's why I added that 2nd image. Even if we hold it to Op5 standards, it's really not super unreasonable. The primary issue is just how back-load the operation [hopefully] is.

  • marcoAn56674641 marco Antonio Solis (@marcoAn56674641) reported

    @M3M0NE1T0R @CoalitionGears I also have problems with my account. Luckily, apparently TC doesn't care about its users, since they don't take you into account ... I still have 2 weeks with my problem. It is a problem that they can solve but they ignore us. I have sent emails and messages here and nothing.

  • Capnjazz2 Cap n jazz (@Capnjazz2) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix rank. Masters is such a joke. You hand that out to everyone

  • YxngChrist09 LilBernieWitDaLoosie (@YxngChrist09) reported

    @Xanthicirs @GearsofWar You clearly don't know how the forums work. If they wanted to simply prevent further discussion, they'd lock the thread and still let It be visible. THEY COMPLETELY REMOVED IT. With no reason why. Maybe because it highlighted the ****** problem that is The Gears Community.
