    @xChewy_ @CoalitionGears @DoubleFine The franchise has been alive for almost 20 years being Xbox exclusive, I don't see the problem and how ******** making an Xbox Game Xbox exclusive is gatekeeping? Just buy an Xbox if you want to play Xbox games. It should have never been released on PS5

    The fact that big gears of war content creators are giving their thoughts and still no changes. What a joke. There is no fixing this game. The issue is TC. This game isn’t gonna last until eday. #GearsOfWarReloaded #GearsofWar

  • CryptoKuroi Kuroi Crypto (@CryptoKuroi) reported

  • CryptoKuroi Kuroi Crypto (@CryptoKuroi) reported

    @GearsofWar gears 5 is shitting the bed with rank online being broken and horde being a mess not registering any master map completions..

  • MysticVods Xtra Father (@MysticVods) reported

    TC (@GearsofWar) y'all really need to do some actual work for Reloaded, you're making the game die because of sheer laziness to fix what is wrong with your "newest" game. Reloaded was an absolute cash grab and did the bare minimum and it's very obvious. You're hurting Gears E-Day

  • DestroWod Destro WOD (@DestroWod) reported

    @GearsofWar Please fix Gears 5 stats !! Its been a week its offline.

  • ARustyTrashcan ARustyTrashcan (@ARustyTrashcan) reported

    @sceptic__x @GearsofWar Asking the real questions. Until that happens this game is cooked. PS players experience will solely be based on a broken gears reloaded

  • Jefferinoh1 Jeffrey Hong (@Jefferinoh1) reported

    @PlayStation @GearsofWar Can you guys please fix a glitch on xbox- It keeps kicking me out and saying “You have been rejected by the anti-cheat server”

  • D0meZ DomeZ 🇩🇴 (@D0meZ) reported

    @SoNJaY_x @CoalitionGears @Community_Gears im finna crash out

  • DestroWod Destro WOD (@DestroWod) reported

    @GearsofWar Stats been down on Gears 5 since Thursday. Any chance for a fix soon? I want to keep racking kills and wins :/

  • AlexMaizus Alex (@AlexMaizus) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix the awful servers

  • ARustyTrashcan ARustyTrashcan (@ARustyTrashcan) reported

    @MysticVods @GearsofWar These devs don’t care about this game. This was pure money grab to get PS players on board and for everyone to get hyped for E-Day. Based on this release, things aren’t looking good for E-Day. Bad servers and a dev team that doesn’t care to fix their game is how people see it.

  • ARustyTrashcan ARustyTrashcan (@ARustyTrashcan) reported

    @GearsofWar Almost at 100 hours of playtime. PLEASE FIX THIS GAME. People want more gears and people love gears. If this is supposed to get fans/new players hyped for E-Day this franchise is screwed

  • 444zimo zym (@444zimo) reported

    @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears you managed to do the worst game ever im not even talking about all the issues that affect this game im talking about the difference of input that casuality occours between two matches i tried everything and if i Say It i mean It the input Is causal

  • JaviBonedLopera Kagura Cor Petit (@JaviBonedLopera) reported

    @GearsofWar @RattaRodriguez Where is Gears 6?. Fix Gears 5. The stats after playing a match aren't update since the last week. Release the tour of duty rewards for new players like some of executions not avalaible currently in the store. You have abandoned us to those we play the game?.

  • BoostyWhispers Boosty (@BoostyWhispers) reported

    @CoalitionGears Hi, nearly all my Aussie xbox and pc users are all getting this "anti cheat message" that's booting all of us out of our game? Is there something wrong at your end? Its across the board it seems. Logged a ticket as well, but this issue appears widespread.

  • Rig5378 brandon78 (@Rig5378) reported

    @MakinDoeTV @PezRadar @Diablo O I definitely don’t mean to bash the game. They do seem to finally be going in the right direction which is nice. I’m just really hoping the master working and tempering fix next season is gonna make it even better.

  • Atommoehre Atommoehre (@Atommoehre) reported

    @Diablo @PezRadar please fix ptr server.... stuck in queue

  • D0meZ DomeZ 🇩🇴 (@D0meZ) reported

  • GGZiiSocial GGZii (@GGZiiSocial) reported

    You said on the xbox direct that it was your intention to have players "Lag less" "more data centres". Can you give EU players the option to wait for an EU server? I havent had one in execution in weeks. Its simply not fun to lagHey @GearsofWar @Community_Gears @Kate_JRayner

  • PenguinLamont 🐧 (@PenguinLamont) reported

    Seems like lots of ppl still having the Gears of War Reloaded disconnect issue. Can’t seem to get a match going on either Xbox Series X or Xbox Ally X. Sucks man. How has this not been fixed?! @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears
