    @GearsofWar I have it in writing from one of your colleagues that my forum ban appears to be a mistake, however I'm still unable to sign in. This has been an issue for over a year now, any update on this error would be appreciated. Many thanks.

  • ZestyC2real West Rose aka ZestyC3real (DeeZeeZez) (@ZestyC2real) reported

    @MadTV510 @CoalitionGears @CoalitionGears app, o have a theory. Hear me out guys. Y’all changed the game so damn much you can’t figure out where the error is. This is why y’all should have left mechanics the same instead of ******* with the gnasher. Back in the day, if a game was broken, it stayed broken

  • MRRATCHET_ MR RATCHET (@MRRATCHET_) reported

    @GearsofWar Is there any fix for the PC version of Gears 5? I simply cannot get the game to run on two different PC builds. It crashes within seconds of gameplay. Turning off dynamic res helps but the crash GW502 still happens.

  • TheSodaholic The Sodaholic (@TheSodaholic) reported

    I just realized I don’t have any @GearsofWar shirts, accessories, or anything!! I need to fix this

  • sperre4 sperre (@sperre4) reported

    @RubenDominates @Zer0LFC @GearsofWar Cap then why do I have under 10 ping on every other game? Gears 5 is a travesty. They butchered the Gears dna in to a monster. I’ve played and loved Gears since the first one. De-sync, lag and net code have progressively gotten worse since Gears 3. Gears 5 MP is a mess.

    @GearsofWar get better cyber-security... i'm sure you are suffering DDoS attacks.... but hey why protect game-services,. ha

  • dleonxl Unreal (@dleonxl) reported

    @GearsofWar The servers have been having issues for about 3 days now and you just realized it 9 hours ago??????

  • MarinaNT86 Marina (@MarinaNT86) reported

    @49ersChic602 @GearsofWar Same here. I was about to upload a few videos showing how bad the servers are working lately, because is very annoying playing like this and I felt like no one listen to us when we report any kind of issues. It's frustrating. I hope they can fix it soon. 🙏😞

  • RTIMM12 RTIMM1 (@RTIMM12) reported

    @PezRadar Then you guys will finally fix console match making so it's a better parody of their console counter part, right?

  • BALLERwright jamal wright (@BALLERwright) reported

    @ptntakos @PaulLivo @GearsofWar I had similar issue but thanks to BANNED_SOLUTION on Instagram he helped me fix it and I never got banned again

  • 6kj_kb24 6KJ_KB24 (@6kj_kb24) reported

    @CoalitionGears @Kate_JRayner @colinpenty Why has it been more than 5 days and the server lag issues are still there that force you to stay or you get 5000 point penalty . This is why people stop playing and you ruin the experience. But a quick play match don’t ever have an issue like this .

  • TobiasSpecht3 Tobias Specht (@TobiasSpecht3) reported

    @GearsofWar Better fix the Achievements for 50k assists and 10000000 damage

  • noob76052507 oxynatOr (@noob76052507) reported

    @GarySwe17691945 @GearsofWar yea its called cyber-attacks... everything is running like "Software-as-a-Service" in a cloud. Hammering (DDoS) the Cloud, will result in thinks like we see... we have the same issues in Sea Of Thieves, QuakeLive i'm sure there are much more!

  • mizzelphug mirrorz (@mizzelphug) reported

    @GearsofWar While you're at it can you finally drop the "quitting" bans since the servers have been the problem all along?

  • FearingTMNT Jake T (@FearingTMNT) reported

    @GearsofWar I’ve had this issue for months it’s why I quit for awhile it’s gotten a bit better but not much.
