    @_Azapts @GearsofWar Wtf is ur problem

  • Avoidss_ Ambitious Quinn (@Avoidss_) reported

    @Dexmuh2 @GearsofWar The real issue here IMO is solo players and squads should be matched separately. 1/2 mans go I queue together and 3/4 mans go into queue together. Obviously a 1 man could get a 3 man team etc. but 2 man should only play 2 man/solos. That would help diversify skill a ton.

    @PezRadar That’s pretty much how I feel. 3rd plumbing issue since Friday. I’m going to suggest we should just rebuild the building at this point.

  • nacht_stern69 Necromancer (@nacht_stern69) reported

    @GearsofWar Jack’s abilities gone, notably ‘pulse’ in co-op mode Act two chapter 4. Ability needed to progress in game. Have seen issue posted on forums since 2019, is there a fix? #Gears5

  • DannyAmbroze Danny (@DannyAmbroze) reported

    @CoalitionGears to follow up from my previous tweet, GT is DRiiLLA. Been playing the gears franchise for 12 years. never had this issue before.

  • AH__Peyton Peyton Jewell (@AH__Peyton) reported

    @GearsofWar I can’t seem to play camping due a an error “Server allocation” wtf?

    @GearsofWar You mean running from your problems? 🧐

  • Exellion_ Exellion (@Exellion_) reported

    @PezRadar Ah I like MP. Solid product line. Oh wow. Yeah DMHA and DMAA are pretty controversial. I took N.O. Explode 2.0 (DMAA) a few times before and I felt like I could bunch press the earth, but from what I've read on these chemicals they can cause a multitude of health issues.

  • Capnjazz2 Cap n jazz (@Capnjazz2) reported

    @Dexmuh2 @GearsofWar They need to fix solo boost. It is way to easy to reach masters. I have done it three times already all on seperate accounts. That 1000 boost just kills true skillbased rank

  • CursedwithADHD J. Holt (@CursedwithADHD) reported

    @GearsofWar This needs to be broken down by gametype

  • fabambina Francesco Bambina (@fabambina) reported

    @CoalitionGears I don't see under known bugs the issue many people are reporting where there is lag and stutter and bad targeting on the Series X. It's happening.

  • FOLUSBROLUS Foley (@FOLUSBROLUS) reported

    @CoalitionGears your game still has performance issues that only appear when I get a notification on Xbox. Is gears 5 just made on pc and ported to Xbox or something?

  • jmurda84 Jmurda aka Husband (@jmurda84) reported

    @ThaPchild @PezRadar The other day I was getting a preroll ad in a stream I'm subbed to. Even refreshing didn't fix it. Super annoying

  • NeinballGamer Neinball (@NeinballGamer) reported

    @PezRadar I’m testing a playback error on a projector this morning and the pre-show ads play this commercial 3 times lol

  • MajinWobbles ꧁ぐらつく꧂ (@MajinWobbles) reported

    @GearsofWar fix your bullshit game.

  • davidclark1989 fake Kurt Russell (@davidclark1989) reported

    @GamingSinceNES @PezRadar @SkillUpYT The problem is that your example is super flawed. You are comparing Titanfall with Diablo. Also, as I said previously, I doubt they'll launch at the same time, so it's even less of an issue.

  • Ctoriez Stories (@Ctoriez) reported

    @ChaqTheGod @danasissons @CoalitionGears I mean, they need to fix something.... That's 4 sure!

  • MrCoinOp Steve (@MrCoinOp) reported

    @PezRadar You buffed up. You’re in trouble!

  • cawcqwrte caww (@cawcqwrte) reported

    @CoalitionGears Hi friends. Went back to GoW Ultimate Edition to replay all the games from start. When playing (and even menus) I have tons of stuttering everywhere. It goes bright light to darker light every second and is unplayable. Do you guys know what I can do to fix this?
