  • slayer_irish 🤔 (@slayer_irish) reported

    The lag and sponging in #Gears5 is horrendous! No competitive shooter should be this bad especially a #Microsoft game! There is no excuse to have lag this bad in any game in 2021! Come on @CoalitionGears you are really bad and ruined the Gears franchise!

  • ShiiniGhamy 𝖑𝕿𝖍𝖊𝕴𝖓𝖋𝖆𝖒𝖔𝖚𝖘𝖑🇫🇷 (@ShiiniGhamy) reported

    @JustinRueckert @GearsofWar Breach shot is available on Pub and custom but imho having this weapon on ranked matchs its a BAD idea at all. This weapon is too damn broken.

  • Matthew86210824 Bando 🔪🇵🇷 (@Matthew86210824) reported

    @GearsofWar @Community_Gears 5xp is broken after update today pls fix

  • smutcookie o CynderWolf o (@smutcookie) reported

    @GearsofWar Please fix the voting in quickplay. Modes are named incorrectly and the other day 2 maps had one vote each and then the one with 0 votes proceeded to get picked

  • JeJe_FIN Jere Rantala (@JeJe_FIN) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Not working! 100% atm with boost

  • Jack_Genna Vincenzo (@Jack_Genna) reported

    @GearsofWar why doesn't the xp multiplier work? have you broken something or have you decided to remove it? but didn't it end on day 13? i'm waiting for an answer. thanks

  • BMinoty Ben Minoty (@BMinoty) reported

    @GearsofWar 5 still can’t fix the same glitches they’ve had since it came out is beyond me. Bring back Cliffy B

  • rubenlozano614 Ruben (@rubenlozano614) reported

    @aarondamron1988 @GearsofWar True but only because epic did well with it then cucked it. Then freakin tc just had its way with the franchise like a toddler at playtime. Still. Any dev is better than tc’s doubling back, fixing things until their broken, and mind games with the community that wants to care

  • slayer_irish 🤔 (@slayer_irish) reported

    Fix your trash servers you triple A bums! The @CoalitionGears is a disgrace

  • JesseEs55337520 Jesse Esquivel (@JesseEs55337520) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Still not working !

  • bear_danny19911 Danny (@bear_danny19911) reported

    @GearsofWar Incompetence runs deep at tc might wanna check your 5 x xp your little hotfix fix removed 9x & reverted it back to default gains 1x such a trash dev instead of it being 5x 💩💩💩

  • imthatfish Mr.Pickerel (@imthatfish) reported

    @thegameawards @GearsofWar @XboxP3 Been playing it since the beta and It’s still hot ******* trash 🗑 I enjoy it but damn the disconnect between The Coalition and it’s community is terrible

  • RillyDj RILLY ♉️ 👻 (@RillyDj) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar When will the game finally fix, weapons do the most gnasher damage & what about the 99% -1 damage. Character Queen Myrrah Black Steel needs to be changed face!!!🤬💥🔫

  • URLNE72 Random Guy (@URLNE72) reported

    @lVlarty_ @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Nah, the game started giving stand 1x XP today, the hot was meant to bring it up to 5x… but apparently the hot fix didn’t work.

  • Matthew86210824 Bando 🔪🇵🇷 (@Matthew86210824) reported

    @CoalitionGears 5xp is not working for anyone

  • blessthiscurse TheDarkKnight117 (@blessthiscurse) reported

    @CoalitionGears Any chance y’all can fix the issue with the AI Bots in the campaign? It’s HORRIBLE!

  • gow2lostplayer1 alex (@gow2lostplayer1) reported

    I tried doing this glitch ages ago, and I couldn't ever do it. This campaign is filled with soooo many places to explore and see D: ! I tried "ABOUT A WEEK AGO" to do this, and I was able to :D ! I'm not the first either. Marcus/Dom skin combined when 👀 ? #GearsofWar

  • barnabys94 Barnaby • 🤦‍♂️ (@barnabys94) reported

    @GearsofWar @Community_Gears Well there’s no 5x XP now. Can you fix this plz!

  • PandaSenpa1 Roy Keane (@PandaSenpa1) reported

    @PaulLivo @GearsofWar I know you mean well but shot delay isn’t the only important thing. There’s bugs, lack of content, broken screen difference, huge chunk range & so on… There’s bigger things to think about, like I just mentioned

  • BarsTheHippie ㄣ⃒ BARSTHEHiPPiE ㄣ⃒ (@BarsTheHippie) reported

    Fix Your Game @GearsofWar 99% Every Time And No Down, Explain.

  • Jack_Genna Vincenzo (@Jack_Genna) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Helloooooo??? The fix doesen t work!!

  • Pow_Purple_Goat Goat (@Pow_Purple_Goat) reported

    @GearsofWar Anyone else having trouble with the xp boost not working?

  • TerryHB_ Terry (@TerryHB_) reported

    @PaulLivo @GearsofWar The issue is that support for the game dropped right as soon drop 5 content was finished, the team is small and papi MS have them on other projects. It's a shame since if the game had the same amount of people who worked on op 5 it would be in a much better position

  • MightyMikeNL75 mrbean (@MightyMikeNL75) reported

    @GearsofWar Not working anymore I get no extra XP 😠

  • Rickk420 Rick Knoll (@Rickk420) reported
