  • BChapy BChaps (@BChapy) reported

    @GhostofDelta2 @hikyletaggart @CoalitionGears Wow... That seems like a pretty big issue. Hopefully they can hot*fix that :/ Did that list of "known bugs" ever go up?

  • Dexmuh2 Xbox Gamertag- wer (@Dexmuh2) reported

    @KlutchKwonDo @GearsofWar Around it corner ? I’m pretty sure that’s because high FPS right! I’m 120 I really don’t think lag has anything to do with it because one I didn’t spike 2 if he was lagging u would’ve seen it in the clip? So that online thing u talking about is ehh

  • ProGear360 App Making Gear (@ProGear360) reported

    @TC_Shauny @GearsofWar I hope it doesn't take a whole operation to partly fix like Hoffman's GUDs, he still has Marcus' grunting and yelling btw 😭😭😭

  • vultzs dr. maestro 🇺🇸 (@vultzs) reported

    @CoalitionGears split-screen is broken for me. It worked for me & my nephew last Sunday but now it doesn't work even when I invite or when my cousin tries to join me in the main lobby. It keeps giving the message that "the other account is not active" & must join my squad in the main lobby

  • VincenzoV92 Vincenzo Vesprini (@VincenzoV92) reported

    @CoalitionGears I’m back to Gears 4, fix this ****.

  • AnarchyMarcus Mr.Smiley/SmileyTheReaper😁🌑 (@AnarchyMarcus) reported

    @GearsofWar Some of us are having trouble getting the Demolitions ultimate to work. Not sure what the cause is, but it’s happening.

  • Xanthicirs Video Games and Politics (@Xanthicirs) reported

    @CoalitionGears @TC_Shauny @GearsofWar I can't get any major progress towards that weapon set because other players keep doing crappy stuff like a glitch that makes all the enemies appear in a tiny area where they can mow them down or hucking grenades in the spawn areas.

  • CMenles Cris Ménlés (@CMenles) reported

    @CoalitionGears Hi, I'm having a problem connecting to the Gears 5 servers. When trying to play multiplayer or horde, I get Error 0x00000d01. I already tried to play from another console and it keeps telling me the same thing. I wait for an answer, in case you need my gamertag is Brandonk9gears.

  • _DJonLawshea_ D'Jon Lawshea (@_DJonLawshea_) reported

    @GearsofWar how come the maps wont rotate on the horde event it keeps forcing me to play on the same one each time i play which is Atrium ya'll really need to fix this i hope! smh!

  • 2Joeyshyblo zMayhm (@2Joeyshyblo) reported

    @GearsofWar Please fix the omen bug

  • AlexCrack176 Xen7ry (@AlexCrack176) reported

    and today I tried deleting the game and reinstalling everything again but the problem remains. I will be very grateful for your help 2/2 @ @CoalitionGears @TC_Shauny Gamertag: iN Xen7ry

  • KlutchKwonDo Klutch (@KlutchKwonDo) reported

    @INaSII @Dexmuh2 @GearsofWar Lag compensation may not be implemented in every game, but that would mean people with better connections would always have a pretty distinct advantage over anyone with higher latency than them because their packets arrive first. This is not unique to Unreal.

  • PapichuloJorge2 Jorge Andrade (@PapichuloJorge2) reported

    @CoalitionGears Can you fix my wife's account. She can't target grubs. No matter how many times we log out, log in, turn off xbox, turn on, close game, get back on, it wont target when aiming and clicking on left thumbstick or right. Her account name is mileydi3368. Please fix, its annoying.

  • ChewyZam RvG Chewy (@ChewyZam) reported

    @GearsofWar fix the gnahser😎

  • xcelgrimreaper Miscqers (@xcelgrimreaper) reported

    @CoalitionGears @TC_Shauny i'm having a weird problem with the text chat. I have it set to "on" in the settings yet nobody can see my messages and i can't see theirs, i've tried turning chat off and on but it didn't fix it, Anything i can try or you might know about this issue?

  • dillon_trey TrickMasterTrey (@dillon_trey) reported

    @Dexmuh2 @GearsofWar There are multiple problems with that kill. The dude was probably laggy or had a high ping and what is happening on your screen was not accurate. I have had that happen to me in execution. Kill cams are never fully accurate anyway. That’s what everybody is saying bro

  • KlutchKwonDo Klutch (@KlutchKwonDo) reported

    @Dexmuh2 @GearsofWar Gears likely has some implementation of lag compensation, meaning you'll take damage in situations where you shouldn't (E.g. right after you go around a wall). The lower the latency, the less the problem is exacerbated

  • ProGear360 App Making Gear (@ProGear360) reported

    @TC_Shauny @TheWickerMan972 @GearsofWar The imulsion isn't imulsion coloured and the fire is very... Orange (the orange looks super cool, but the imulsion is broken). Looks like the lighting got rebuilt and something broke somewhere, one sec

  • KlutchKwonDo Klutch (@KlutchKwonDo) reported

    @Dexmuh2 @GearsofWar even if they are tied together, this scenario is not a case of whether or not your bullets were magnetized, it's a case of you getting shot where you are not longer standing because of lag compensation

  • TC_Shauny TC Shauny (@TC_Shauny) reported

    @TheWickerMan972 @ProGear360 @GearsofWar I mean... I disagree with that, it's been bugged, said to be fixed and then another issue happens, it happens we'll get it sorted. :)

  • Stevesm63101726 Steve smith (@Stevesm63101726) reported

    @GearsofWar TC please respond to this. Ever since after operation 5 while playing offline I can’t access my character skins or weapon skins. You could do this offline before operation 5 so why can’t we now? If we paid for some skins we should have access to them. Pls fix this.

  • RealVinHDz Vin H (@RealVinHDz) reported

    @GearsofWar You guys realize the game is broken with the last update? No hot fix? Stats are not counting after matches 🤦

  • KlutchKwonDo Klutch (@KlutchKwonDo) reported

    @Dexmuh2 @GearsofWar now it's implemented on a per-pellet basis for the gnasher, meaning every pellet applies damage individually. Your scenario is not a result of bullet magnetism nor aim assist. It's lag compensation

  • GhostofDelta2 GhostofDelta2 (@GhostofDelta2) reported

    @hikyletaggart @CoalitionGears Currently and issue, if someone quits a comp match no score counts for anyone

  • Theunbroken89 R4WGaming www.twitch.tv/r4w_ragnarok (@Theunbroken89) reported

    @CoalitionGears Apparently the only thing they do right is ban people whenever a problem player ask them. Hahaha hahahaha hahahaha.

  • flabberquestion Flabberquestion (@flabberquestion) reported

    @CoalitionGears Also fix it when Xbox goes in standby and out of standby that the game is able to connect to the online services without having to shut down the game completely again. That **** is annoying.

  • DarkBreed7 Dark Breed (@DarkBreed7) reported

    2 Operations later, bullet magnetism is still none existent on mouse half the time. @CoalitionGears Gonna fix it or is this how the game will just be? I've sent several tickets, with proof. If this isn't addressed before OP8, I'm not going to spend another dime on anything by TC.

  • grayskyambient1 Brandon Gonzales (@grayskyambient1) reported

    @CoalitionGears is there a way y'all can fix the ai in custom games especially in objective modes to where they can pick up guns? Has anyone else noticed this as well?

  • strappedwalk935 Strappedwalk935 (@strappedwalk935) reported

    @GearsofWar Any one else having loading problems with the new tile maps for horde?

  • RitualHRS H Ω Я S Ξ (@RitualHRS) reported

    @GearsofWar @TC_Shauny @TC_Shauny omen bug fix???
