  • Kid_Omega__ Kid ømega (@Kid_Omega__) reported

    @CoalitionGears The servers are still broken. I can't do more than one competitive game in a row. It always crashes on the second match and then I get match penalties.... The second game won't even load. It just says looking for players for about 15 minutes then I'm forced to quit

    @CoalitionGears @TC_Shauny I Keep getting errors when loading into the Atrium Tile map on PC. "You have been removed from the game. You have been kicked from the game. I am able to load into the other 2 Tile maps without issue on PC. On my xbox series X, I can load into and play Atrium.

  • calcheese heart failure deluxe (@calcheese) reported

    @CoalitionGears @sightlessKombat So are you guys going to fix the leaderboard bug? Tons of people in the millions of points when weekly shows true stats. But what happens next week when weekly leaderboards reset? Lots of people out of top 1000 that shouldn't be.

    Gears 5 community: @CoalitionGears please fix the TDM spawn glitch. @CoalitionGears: **** you lol, we'll make TDM ranked only and call it a day. There's your fix.

  • sightlessKombat SightlessKombat #GAAD2021 (@sightlessKombat) reported

    @REDY0TA @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Running into walls isn't really the issue. It's getting stuck and being unable to progress. Escape Ping has been a literal game changer in that regard already for me with this great mode, even in the small amount of time since Op 7 dropped.

  • abrarkhan959 G H O 5 T- G@mer (@abrarkhan959) reported

    @CoalitionGears guys please bring back king of the hill. And the matchmaking issue started again for Asian servers unable to find any single match...look into this

  • sightlessKombat SightlessKombat #SoEveryoneCanGame (@sightlessKombat) reported

    Anyone else having issues connecting to #Gears5 online services? Had a couple of runs of Escape but now I keep getting unavailable messages. @CoalitionGears @XboxSupport

  • Ghost85856707 Ghost (@Ghost85856707) reported

    @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears You claim the lag issue are fixed ( don't get me started on that one) and we can use a keyboard and mouse so xbox user are on part with PC players there admitting pc have an advantage. You want fix this game, bring back koth, give us the choice for cross play or not.

  • Daviddrossos1 David Drossos (@Daviddrossos1) reported

  • JerusalemJonny JerusalemJonny (@JerusalemJonny) reported

    @TC_Shauny @CoalitionGears @ge Hey Shaunys bro, any word from the dev team when these bug fixes from op7 drop are gonna roll out? Like the simple omen fix, seeing the new map? That kind of stuff. Thanks

  • jota_elche Jota (@jota_elche) reported

    You don't even test your own updates before release? How is the simple omen broken? And not even hotfixed yet? I swear every time gears has an opportunity, something is messed up @TC_Shauny @GearsGentleman @CoalitionGears
