  • stubzzgaming Stubz Gaming (@stubzzgaming) reported

    @BERSERKER_THiiS @CoalitionGears I used to have slow Internet I feel your pain but even with mine gears 5 the issue they dump us uk ppl into usa servers most of the time

  • DerekB08 Derek Boyd (@DerekB08) reported

    @PezRadar Please fix Dragon Strike prior to D2R Season 3: -> DTail has bugged speed. There is a mismatch of speed between client and server. #d2r

  • iSalvation5 JohnRPG (@iSalvation5) reported

    I want @CoalitionGears to make the next #GearsofWar to be a Live Service Looter Shooter. With yearly expansions, season passes, and more. They are better than 343 and I think they can pull it off.

  • xWarPlays WAR (@xWarPlays) reported

    @WormsicleTV @GearsofWar your problem reporting tool has been broken for the past 2 years. I do think it has ever worked for me, I gave up on reporting bugs. I found my own fixes on my end. It might… might work now. Who knows ???

  • KabricieTV Kabricie (@KabricieTV) reported

    @PezRadar Could this be used as background music on Stream? Will I have Copyright Issues?

  • CreamedPeach13 Nathan Eichhorn (@CreamedPeach13) reported

    @CoalitionGears needs some help, playing Gears 5 and my game hits a glitch where the world drops out and I can’t get past the part. It’s in Act 4: The Fall when the monster is chasing you on the truck

  • RichSiekris Richard (@RichSiekris) reported

    @PezRadar Hey chat is bugged in D2R again. Is this issue being looked into?

  • AndrewRally Rally2603 (@AndrewRally) reported

    Half the time playing games on pc is about repairing anti ******* cheat!!! Installed #gears5 anti cheat not working. To fix it I had to repair battlefield 2042 anti cheat and then it works but come up with an integrity error and kicks me out of any multiplayer @CoalitionGears

  • Pound4Pound_No1 ERADICATION (@Pound4Pound_No1) reported

    @stevenhannigan @CoalitionGears You going to fix horde in Gears 6?

  • TanisGunthar TanthalusLethGunthar (@TanisGunthar) reported

    @Atsoc_WHV @PezRadar I'm assuming so too, which is why I held off on pre order. Why bother at launch, when a fresh start with new stuff gets pushed out so fast. Skip the inevitable server issues too.

  • Fairjfree fairjfree (@Fairjfree) reported

    It's like trying to fix a machine in ww3 #Revelations - #gearsofwar #Ukraine

  • nerd4nation NerdNationCreations (@nerd4nation) reported

    Hearing @CoalitionGears cancelled a bunch of ips to make another #gears6 is sad and this is the problem with Microsoft, i have loved gears of war but it does not move the needle forward you need to stop playing it safe. These ips need a break and that includes #Halo

  • Nynoen Nate (@Nynoen) reported

    @GearsofWar Once again, can you FIX online match making?!?! Over 10 ******* minutes to play 1 game with the worse ping ever!! Plus, when was the last update for the game, you obviously don't give a **** about your loyal fans and it's clearly showing. 🤬🖕🖕

  • Captain_Boltoks Aaron (@Captain_Boltoks) reported

    @epiconyxfreak1 @GearsofWar @ElationEsports Wow, this took me back to better days. I miss the gore and body shots this game had. It wasn't perfect, it had it's issues. But, MAN I wish I could go back in time and play it in it's glory days one more time.

  • SkelletorO SkelletorOwo (@SkelletorO) reported

    @CoalitionGears hello the coalition I would like to know if there is a problem with my gears of war 4 profile because I have not ranked up in king of the hill my gametarg is skelletorOwo, good afternoon and an apology, but I have already played too much and I have not past gold 3 in these last

  • BERSERKER_THiiS Jordan 🐰🎮 (@BERSERKER_THiiS) reported

    @stubzzgaming @CoalitionGears Yeah my internet is more than capable but I only have this issue with Gears. You’re probably right, it’s just annoying as hell

  • Vorian_Rob Vorian_Rob (@Vorian_Rob) reported

    @SavageeRandy1 @PezRadar I prefer the console UI for D2R and D3. They fixed a lot of issues I had with the PC UIs. But D3 also had the issue of being functionally different on console but only ever receiving updates based on PC meta. There's a lot of variables that I would like to see how they addressed

  • Vernon_McFadden Vernon Is In 2023. (@Vernon_McFadden) reported

    @JPiepiora I would order 500-1000 dedicated servers to handle D4 (and D3) before you launch on 6/6 (and possibly before open beta next month, which would be preferable). We are having early issues with S28 launch: too many people trying to log in. @PezRadar @RodFergusson

  • stanzillaz Stanzilla (@stanzillaz) reported

    @PezRadar any updates about Diablo 3 server issues? It's really unplayable right now

  • RvBAgentTex Darian McMahon (@RvBAgentTex) reported

    @_Rawr93 @GearsofWar Should have always been like that. It might fix the boring horde they've managed to create between 4 and 5

  • Ozymandias88_ (ES) Ozymandias (@Ozymandias88_) reported

    @NecroPixels69 @stevenhannigan @CoalitionGears The guy just got hired and is announcing it and the first thing you thought to say is "fix this"?

  • OwMyGod3 OwMyGod (@OwMyGod3) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Gears 5 servers have big problems right now. Can you do something about it? Thanks Im from the Eu

  • J_a_mess03 J_a_mess Gaming and more (@J_a_mess03) reported

    @TutifrutiGaming @CoalitionGears I'd like to see them fix the issue with 5 ending by killing the other person you didn't pick in the opening act.

  • Fathead_on_bass Mad Irishman #BlackLivesMatter (@Fathead_on_bass) reported

    @BungieHelp Back in my day games worked with no fancy uninstalling then reinstalling of 60% of the content #GearsofWar new map packs didn't interfere #CoD expansions ran with no issues.... What gives guys?

  • CharlesJT1977 CharlesJT (@CharlesJT1977) reported

    @PezRadar @RodFergusson @PezRadar In patch notes for 2.6, the devs fixed an issue for Druid’s Shockwave skill doing unintended amount of damage. What about similar issue for Paladin where Concentration bug increases damage for Hammers at 50%? Where's the equal treatment?

  • BERSERKER_THiiS Jordan 🐰🎮 (@BERSERKER_THiiS) reported

    @ToniOkami @CoalitionGears Nat type is open, don’t have problems with other games, could hardwire but my box is literally next to my Xbox…

  • DGenerateNolife NoLife DGenerate (@DGenerateNolife) reported

    @GearsofWar "Server allocation failed" on Gears 5 - Fix your ******* ****. No excuse for this garbage years after the game's release.

  • DadSensitive Sensitive_Dad (@DadSensitive) reported

    @CoalitionGears servers down ?

  • Chewey_B Chewey (@Chewey_B) reported

    @CoalitionGears Hey, I'm currently playing through the gears games in order with my son, but there's an issue with my profile on gears 2. We've got to aftermath, but the game crashes at the title screen if I'm logged in. Google search shows as a known issue, any help appreciated!

  • ZON02590579 ZON (@ZON02590579) reported
