  • Villainess_Abby Dark Countess Abigail, JRPG Villainess (@Villainess_Abby) reported

    @PezRadar Heya, I have a quick question. Did the D2R dev team fix Claw Mastery not working with some skills? With Blade Fury, while using a claw-type weapon doesn't give you attack rating, which effectively makes the skill nearly useless for many applications.

  • vsully360 Craig (@vsully360) reported

    @PezRadar Is it possible to fix the Metalgrid amulet issue in D2R at some point so that you don't lose the summoned golem whenever you quit a game?

    @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears you’re a bunch of meter maids. Gears of War Ultimate Edition is down. Fix it now or the Locust will destroy civilization

  • slayer_irish 🤔 (@slayer_irish) reported

    Fix your servers #Microsoft this is your issue! The most important thing in any competitive shooter is for both teams to be on a level playing field..#Gears5 is horrible the reason most players quit! There is no excuse for any game to be this bad @XboxSupport @CoalitionGears

  • SirMole1 Sir Mole (@SirMole1) reported

    @CoalitionGears So my friend and I were planning on playing Gears Ultimate Edition as he has never played through the gears games and we keep getting ONLINE SERVICE ERROR failed to retrieve online profile. Have you taking the servers down or is this an outage???

  • LizardAlgae Eli (@LizardAlgae) reported

    @PezRadar Great, now fix NHAM.

  • slayer_irish 🤔 (@slayer_irish) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Is the team aware how laggy the servers have been for the last two weeks where it's impossible to play the game? I can unload whole Gnasher clips in players and they don't die but they hit me once and I'm dead! Things have changed radically with #Gears5 the last two weeks!Fix it

  • TXR_Wyd wyd? (@TXR_Wyd) reported

    UE servers down??? @CoalitionGears

  • AntiHeroZemm GRUB KRYLLER (@AntiHeroZemm) reported

    @HeatMando @GearsofWar It's most likely a mistake. They'll probably rectify it and possibly give us more time because of the error.

    @PezRadar Just a small question , why do you feel the need to upgrade each year ? They just said its just a maybe better camera and 2,5 hours longer baterry . I got my 12 pro max for 1 year and got no issues :D
