  • samlluka sam (@samlluka) reported

    @JcsCommentary @PezRadar it could be software issues, maybe she has too many unnecessary programs on her computer. also, if you’re using windows as your os, then expect many issues along the way, that’s a given

  • johnny_casebere Johnathan Casebere (@johnny_casebere) reported

    @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears fix your game so getting disconnected due to WiFi issues doesn’t result in a penalty!!

  • PaulLivo Livo (@PaulLivo) reported

    Hi @TC_Shauny @CoalitionGears I've had @babeshaker DM me with a matchmaking issue. I have explained the quit penalty but from the description it's not that. I've explained I don't work for TC so I'd need to pass this in the correct direction if you can please help. Thanks

  • XenoKaleb . (@XenoKaleb) reported

  • Oxg_Morality Brad (@Oxg_Morality) reported

    Fix your servers @CoalitionGears

  • TrevelyanL85A2 Gov (@TrevelyanL85A2) reported

    @CoalitionGears Can we please get a fix to the Sybarite achievement for Gears Judgment? Or at least let us pop it so we can finish this game? It's unfair that this game can't be supported to help people finish the achievements. @CoalitionGears @BlackTusk

  • TastierLake9147 Dylan (@TastierLake9147) reported

    @cjdig86 @GearsofWar I already know they wont fix it, im just putting it out there so they can hopefully learn for 6. I doubt they will, but i have a tiny bit of hope.

  • darklordshiva Dark_Shiva (@darklordshiva) reported

  • bigpoppaflex24 Nick Kurr (@bigpoppaflex24) reported

    @Xanthicirs @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Rightfully so when you have a broken game people will kinda complain for paying for a game that doesn't work

  • Paulsmi68862882 Jokerkilledu666 (@Paulsmi68862882) reported

    @MrHanma89 @GearsofWar I can't speak for anyone else only myself and my ping is steady and great, no issues at all. I only started playing recently and have no experience of previous gears but from what I've read the community needs to get its head out its *** and back the fkn game it claims to love.

  • NickGrayson95 Nick, CEO of Dinguses (@NickGrayson95) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar You should fix the bug where certain players aren't allowed to redeem the free items like the piledriver execution pack and pride flags in the Gears 5 store

  • MooJay18 MooJay (@MooJay18) reported

    This new operation gotta be the most broke **** ever Get stick drift for no reason, played all recent gears and it didnt happen Randomly kicked from games then gives me an error code💀 Can yall fix this **** @GearsofWar

  • JumbooPizza jumboo (@JumbooPizza) reported

    @CoalitionGears matchmaking is absolutely horrendous in gears 5 now, you play in a stack you get wrecked by pc, you play alone, you get wrecked by high ping players+stacks that are now better on the other team, this game they dont want you to win unless you are Mexican or lagging

  • PaulLivo Livo (@PaulLivo) reported

    @scybyr @GearsofWar @TC_Shauny I think that it'll be less of a problem if it's headshots only, body shot collat damage would be awful. I do think though that adding any form of collat damage to the Mk2 will make the Longshot feel underpowered due to rate of fire (Even if Longshot got it too)

  • RevolutionAndre André Revolution (@RevolutionAndre) reported

    @CoalitionGears hi guys, impulse trigger is not working anymore on pc, windows store version , I've tried multiple controllers and re-download, no success.

  • DeJaVu56443084 Deijia Vu (@DeJaVu56443084) reported

    @MrHanma89 @Paulsmi68862882 @GearsofWar So yes I agree I shouldn't have to fight anybody who has a ping of 100 or more.... because let's get real, they literally eat 99% of shots because you never really know where they truly are on the map. But if everybody would pay for good internet we wouldn't have this problem

  • bear_danny19911 Danny (@bear_danny19911) reported

    @GearsofWar Your games a mess no one cares about an irrelevant double xp weekend when there’s zero reason to level up or any content worth unlocking in a game where the shotgun is the only reliable weapon to use & it’s broken to the point where point blanks aren’t gibs but mid range is

  • Xtreme2theT Xtreme Tactiicz (@Xtreme2theT) reported

    @TC_Shauny how long do u expect (approximately) TC will fix my global chat?? @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar

  • JcsCommentary JOE CRONIN Show (@JcsCommentary) reported
