    @PezRadar hi! I know you’re busy with servers, but there is a bug on PC that causes wireless Xbox controllers to randomly disconnect/reconnect every 15 seconds or so. It’s been confirmed by others on Reddit. It would be great if you could look into it :) thank you!

  • ItBurnZwhenIP Markus (@ItBurnZwhenIP) reported

    @GearsofWar I lost all the characters I have unlocked and purchased. And all the cards I have earned in Horde are locked again? Is this a glitch or was it on purpose? Like I have level 18s on some classes and the cards are all locked up. Has this happened to anybody else?
