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

  • PyroMDyet Matt Hillier. Pyrø, Xbo-mech R4-K60 #IndyHatGang (@PyroMDyet) reported

    @CloudPractitio1 @GearsofWar I made the same suggestion a while back each act based on a different member, similar storytelling structure as judgement but instead of it being a trial it's actually a memorial service where we play through the stories Clayton is telling to honour the fallen ♥

  • CosmosTF Tom. (@CosmosTF) reported

    @LvxGoW @GearsofWar “Wildly successful” dude it took 4 years to fix the game and 6 years to add more content to it yeah there are still people playing it but it was such a broken flop at launch and for another 3 years

  • iiNexius Nexius the Punslinger (@iiNexius) reported

  • Fir3blad320 Lukas (@Fir3blad320) reported

    @GearsofWar I am not lying I am so interest in Gears when I always see some cool new content. The problem is I don’t have the time for it 🙄

  • reddeadrevenge2 Joseph Zayas (@reddeadrevenge2) reported

    @Anthony2690xo @GoldenH77483918 @GearsofWar That must be why I have so much trouble finding matches with a full lobby.

  • Fathead_on_bass Mad Irishman #BlackLivesMatter (@Fathead_on_bass) reported

    @TC_Kilo @CoalitionGears I assume that with operation 6 just days away one of the big announcements will be that you have or almost have fixed the lag/latency issues that many players have been experiencing? Looking forward to all the new stuff too but would love a fix for that

  • Auron135 Auron (@Auron135) reported

    Yeah @GearsofWar your game is so broken your rank is the worst I’ve seen it and when you add updates it’s like your not even listening to peoples input and I don’t understand how you think it’s perfectly fine to add servers that crash out of nowhere and then you get de ranked

  • Anthony2690xo Anthony (@Anthony2690xo) reported

    @WarDiaz0094 @GoldenH77483918 @GearsofWar I love how people come out with you must be new to the franchise when they disagree with an opinion. This is the problem with the Gears community they hurl abuse/insults and don't give any actual context for their complaints or say what they would like to be different. :)

  • bear_danny19911 Danny (@bear_danny19911) reported

    @ConnorpriceXD @GearsofWar The problem is no one cares about gears 5 or the next operation & they knew exactly what they were doing with this bait & switch

  • PapichuloJorge2 Jorge Andrade (@PapichuloJorge2) reported

    @CoalitionGears can you guys fix the getting dropped out of a match problem that keeps persisting alot. Me and alot other people keep getting dropped out of matches like horde and end up losing the xp. Even if we are able to join back it wont award the xp

  • Trap_4l Tɾαρ 🌟 (@Trap_4l) reported

    @GearsofWar fix your trash *** game 🥳

  • Chrisoligy Chrisoligy (@Chrisoligy) reported

    @TC_Kilo @GearsofWar If the Tc account could gladly unblock me and listen to my feedback on gears 5 it would help. I've played gears for 14yrs i tried to help nodezero fix the game thats how i got blocked. I have some really good feedback for you that will change trajectories

  • robertwalton10 Robert Walton (@robertwalton10) reported

    @GearsofWar get ready for delays on operation 6, then be ready for dissolved lobbies horde kicks and medals not working. Then the obligatory patches and then in a months time operation 6. Awesome

  • Cheftonyflakes Chef Crypto (@Cheftonyflakes) reported

    @GearsofWar That's the problem... your gears 5 ain't ****. It's pathetic like you. It's obvious the fans want retro remastered gow content... not your ****** swarm or your ****** gow 4,5 or 6... you'll never live up to epic games and @therealcliffyb work. Just remaster our **** and **** off

  • valkos67 Val Kos (@valkos67) reported

    @CoalitionGears I use to play gears daily for hours, all the issues , glitches etc,,,,, really not feeling it anymore. Sad , but I finally put the cog to rest. You really need to listen to your customer base

  • vcisco74 victor cisco (@vcisco74) reported

  • xMattheManx darc (@xMattheManx) reported

    @GearsofWar the gnasher is absolutely broken, I literally hit 15-20 95%+ shots a game playing FFA the shortest game mode you ******* have. This game is so broken I’m literally uninstalling an I suggest everyone else do the same until this shotgun actually works

  • grooby666 Konrad Drybala (@grooby666) reported

    @CoalitionGears hi. Just got into gears5 but ping issues are ruining my multiplayer experience. Why am I getting high pings when playing gears while normally my connection is testing 40ms. In gears it's well over 100ms. Is it because the game pairs me with NA servers? Im in UK.

  • Mason_Bentz1995 Mason_Bentz1995 (@Mason_Bentz1995) reported

    @GearsofWar **** that remaster 2 y’all had almost 2 whole years to fix 5 and it’s still a train wreck
