Gears of War 5 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Nick07736986 Nick (@Nick07736986) reported

    @PezRadar Are there any plans to add to/fix the online PC lobby/game list? Unfortunately It's not as effective as it was 20 years ago. Not many people talk about it because they don't have good memory or awareness of how the online community functioned in its peak (which is also right now)

  • OfSavee Ari (@OfSavee) reported

    @PezRadar Hey so one of my items (Gull) just disappeared from my inventory... is this a known bug, you guys know about this issue?

  • Geridian Patrick (@Geridian) reported

    @RodFergusson @PezRadar Maybe also take a look into this: On PS4 if you change the “Max player count” in the options menu from 4 to 8 and save the change, it is saved in the options window but the Party Finder everytime defaults back to 4. ==> Party Finder aside, I encountered no issues. Good job!

  • Noisyboy_AL Jonathan Ortiz (@Noisyboy_AL) reported

    @Community_Gears @CoalitionGears I still have my problem with my disappeared chrome steel set mu gamer tag is Cs Noisyboy AL

    @CoalitionGears are the servers having issues? Got error code “pesang”, restarted and matchmaking won’t find a game due to lobbies dissolving

  • nsan3warrior 👑NSAN3 WARRIOR 👑 (@nsan3warrior) reported

    @GearsofWar server down. 😢😢😢

  • ScrappyPup Scrappy Pup 🏳️‍🌈 (@ScrappyPup) reported

    @PezRadar Are there plans to hit up console specific issues / bugs? E.g. Duriel loading screen? Managed to brute force my way past it by over levelling but it's been a known issue since beta and I've seen no one from Blizz even acknowledge it...

  • LancerofEresh Ereshkigal Enthusiasts (@LancerofEresh) reported

    @GearsofWar bro your game 🎮 is down pls fix

  • Ckraye44 Chris (@Ckraye44) reported

  • Gears_Gnasher Jason G (@Gears_Gnasher) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Great. So can you now address the issue where my Gnasher can sometimes one-shot down a guy from 15 feet and other times shoot marshmallows? Thanks.

  • JoeySwiftieTx13 Joseph!!! 🐨 (@JoeySwiftieTx13) reported

    @GearsofWar I GOT PESANG ERROR

  • XKaosDark X Kaos Dark (@XKaosDark) reported

    @DomezTV @CoalitionGears Thats strange then. If other games run fine on 120 its most likely gears. I will never understand how a game has these types of problems

  • sarahleeb87 Sarah brown (@sarahleeb87) reported

    @GearsofWar why is there so much lagging on horde and escape fir xbox xs

  • Footballman1298 Dan Moore (@Footballman1298) reported

    @RodFergusson @PezRadar can we actually get an explanation of wtf is going on. This is 4 days in a row. We need an announcement not a bot telling us that we have server issues

  • kev0487 Kev (@kev0487) reported

    @PezRadar Hey Pez, is there an expected fix for the lack of games visible in hardcore/classic? I know there isn’t a ton of people playing it but we’ve confirmed within the community that you cannot see all of the open public games. Can you only play with people within 50 miles or what?

  • eyegallo Imraan Gallo (@eyegallo) reported from Cape Town, Western Cape

    Gears 5 campaign co-op server still broken since operation 5. Wtf TC @CoalitionGears FIX IT!!!!!!

  • papi_blanco_7 Sebastain Charon (@papi_blanco_7) reported

    @GearsofWar Y’all still need to fix black steel queen myrram like do y’all care to fix her or nah just keep things 100 with us @GearsofWar

  • JohnLockhart69 Hypocrites Suck. (@JohnLockhart69) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar There's not an update that'll fix this garbage game. A lot of us are still playing GOW4 bcus of how bad gears of fail 5 is, especially horde mode. I played it one time when I preordered but haven't been back since.

  • gamerCliveD Clive (@gamerCliveD) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN see I said “today’s” yesterday and look forward to seeing u again today. @PezRadar seriously this is a total joke now, beyond funny and outrageous every day servers down. #D2R sick of your bs and not one explanation,not one, why u think this is acceptable bs!

  • Hasking10 Tito (@Hasking10) reported

    @_Suhaiil_ @CoalitionGears I got sick and tired of support not attending to me 🤮🤮..probably they’ve got too many people to attend to ..But all thanks to @AgentFemiTv they helped me resolve my account issues they are wonderful…

  • braian1489 braian (@braian1489) reported

    @BlizzardCS @PezRadar Something to say? It is the second time the servers down....

  • RMABaugi47 Baugi47 (@RMABaugi47) reported

    @RodFergusson @JoshuaP31326122 @PezRadar Can you guys just acknowledge that it was a bad idea going with the D3 system? Daily reddit posts since launch complaining about this issue. Just add the original lobby browser/creation Stop trying to make this system work. I hate to be so forward here, but it failed.

  • Rennix_ Rennix (@Rennix_) reported

    @PezRadar ever since Xbox patch, I’ve been crashing every time I try and do Baal. I’m using a series x. Is a fix coming?

  • MayorKacho Kacho (@MayorKacho) reported

    @PezRadar @BlizzardCS @RodFergusson Hey everyone. Diablo 3 on the Series X is not running with the Xbox One X enhancements. It gets downgraded to the Xbox One version. What is the best way to raise the issue so someone can look into it and fix it?

  • greyes565 Billy Monarca (@greyes565) reported

    @eilksni @CamsheeOriginal @GearsofWar I didnt “play ******** out of this”. I literally stopped playing MP after around OP4 because the issues, which are too broad and annoying to describe, just completely turned me off altogether. Boosters + Horde was all that kept my rank up. Not too mention, Im a “Fake” Reup 31

  • WashDemetrius Demetrius Wash (@WashDemetrius) reported

    @GearsofWar when are you guys going to fix this marking and crouching bug seriously tired of being marked but I can't ******* do it to people that's unfair and I'm sick of this ****
