Gears of War 5 Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
MD💮 (Knicks are NBA Champs) (@mdofficial_1) reported@ElectronJacob @XBOX @GearsofWar Knew that before they mentioned it. Not a problem as I'm sure many Gears players will grind to it when the official launch happens
-
FlipTheCrypt (@TrustDontVer1fy) reported@GearsofWar Please fix the clunkiness & delay. Shotgun delay, delay between running/rolling/up-A-ing/bouncing off cover & shooting. The transition from slow look sens sprinting to regular look sens takes too long too. The constantly changing look speed and camera make aiming inconsistent.
-
FilthyAmbition (@DerkWolf) reported@GearsHate @GearsofWar Gamers are so toxic and cry babies now. Just play the damn game. Consistently bitching about something. ******* dopamine issues
-
MajorJunko (@majorjunko22) reported@HunterOfReach @GearsofWar They’re not changing anything for this beta. It says right in the info page it’s the same beta both weekends and that it’ll give you time to finish up progress towards the rewards. They also said at the end they’re going to provide a list of known bugs and issues they’ll fix.
-
JAN (@thariz_) reported@KITTYCATALERT @TheMacBulletin @GearsofWar It’s an UI issue
-
😵💫 Michael (@Michaelrunsdis) reported@GearsofWar Are you going to fix the fact that no one can play fullscreen exclusive,it literally freezes your game.!?

CptThs (@CptThs389) reported@GearsofWar Fix the bot team mates, they don’t do **** all or add player join ins
-
kingofapes (@wtfrick2) reportedfix the toggle sprint delay bug, fix allowing double bindings, the movement needs to be smoothed out a little, nerf incendiary shotgun, 12 second respawn may too much, gnasher is very consistent @GearsofWar
-
chris (@ChrisSlaske) reported@GearsofWar they made it **** this weekend so they can optimize and say they did something to fix next weekend. Ban VPNs. Ban high ping. Dedicated servers
-
L. (@lleebowskii) reported@Community_Gears @CoalitionGears trying to move the gnasher aim is impossible, especially while walking, fix this pls
-
Eddie Pitts (@ColeTrainWOAH) reported@GearsofWar ran into an issue in horde siege where the rig didn’t activate at all. Still got the xp but wasn’t able to continue to extract
-
FR Gear (@ProGear360) reported@GearsofWar I couldn't link my account during the mini test, unsure if this is what the fix is regarding. But as a heads up :)
-
Primed Thor 🇺🇸 (@Primed_Thor) reported@gearsofwar fix your hit registration. Half the time my shots should have connected but didn't
-
Jov 🫧 (@ctrljov) reported@GearsofWar PLEASE fix whatever’s wrong with mnk 🙏 the movement and aiming feels so clunky it’s driving me insane
-
Scotty (@MapleLeafGuy7) reported@GearsofWar Horde makes my Xbox crash where it turns off. Should probably iron that out before Oct.
-
😵💫 Michael (@Michaelrunsdis) reported@GearsofWar Hello After playing the eday beta I think the shotgun/knasher needs a fire rate buff this will fix a lot of delay feelings ect pls test it out double the fire rate and test it for yourselves.
-
Montez M. Harris (@Money_Maurice) reported@majorjunko22 @HunterOfReach @GearsofWar Well its definitely a issue that need fixing. Especially since Legacy hasn't changed since the Original Gears. They have to fix it!
-
yungog5ive (@yungog5ive) reported@GearsofWar It’s the movement!!! The fact that I can’t run stop & pop, change directions is a problem. The guns need to be nerfed/buffed. The fact that I don’t feel in control like the past games is a problem.
-
Dune (@SpartanDusk) reported@Thegamingfoodie @GearsofWar He should’ve died lol game looks like it may have some networking issue BUT the horde mode looks sick, can’t wait to play it next week
-
Veloohh (@velooohh) reported@GearsofWar Fix the legacy controls! I get you wanna bring new people for the game with that default controls which is cool but any OG Gears player ain’t gonna switch to that
-
k (@avgjoeTeddy) reported@GearsofWar Can u fix Marcus and dons face Marcus looks like a recovering crack head and dom looks nothing like him like wtf also can u not use Y to hurdle it makes no sense and slows down movement!
-
SS (@dxrkspartan) reported@GearsofWar @DeluxeHaas Bro got told skill issue in the most respectful way
-
DMG (@PH602NX) reported@GearsofWar Reduce the special weapons respawn time and player respawn time. Fix the shot delay and running delay.
-
Aaronify (@_Aaronify) reportedPlease @CoalitionGears fix server latency and hit reg😖😖 and 12 seconds of respawn time
-
Akela (@Akelaphobia) reported@GearsofWar So.. Not a single fix for any of the PC version's issues? Not even the horrible mouse sensitivity fluctuations?
-
killergrim94 (@killerGrim94) reported@GearsofWar Can you please fix horde Siege can't interact with any of the rigs
-
۟ (@LyinFigure) reported@GearsHate @GearsofWar skill issue, get better at the game and u wouldn’t have any of these problems
-
Nomad the Hunter (@NomadtheHunter) reported@Lukewarrrm @GearsofWar Same in Brazil. The only one that is worse in regards to lag/connection speed is Reloaded
-
Nathan Vargas (@NVG_MEDIA) reported@CoalitionGears does not have enough time to fix Gears of War E-day. After playing this beta I can see why @XBOX and @asha_shar made E-day exclusive to Xbox because it does not deliver on the authentic gears of war feel that the previous 5 have. Another disaster for Xbox..
-
HunterOfReach (@HunterOfReach) reported@GearsofWar @Community_Gears I’d like to hear any news at all about legacy controls sprint and movement not feeling good at all, and the awful lag and hit reg. As someone who bought the $350 collectors edition id like to know these things are being looked into / fixed.
