    @ianwilgaus @ffmmdreza @CoalitionGears Well that’s the problem not a lot of people are playing their games lol so he’s right in what he’s saying if your ok with mediocrity & slighty above average games then that’s fine but don’t tell someone to get a life for voicing their opinion just because you disagree with them

  • duk_foo Duk Foo🕹️⛳ (@duk_foo) reported

    @MldGhost @AEGRO_84 @CoalitionGears #Xbox has been fooling their fans for a decade. EPIC praising Sony is just business. Playstation brand has been a cash cow for them with fortnite. This is a non issue and silly.

  • JudahKeim @jbkeim (@JudahKeim) reported

    @GearsofWar #gears5 this game is a colossal piece of **** and an embarrassment to the rest of the titles in the franchise. @Xbox @Microsoft please. I’m begging you to intervene and restructure the coalition.. Idk how much louder the community could be about it’s outage.

  • ianwilgaus Ian Wilgaus (@ianwilgaus) reported

    @DannTheDino @Angykait @CoalitionGears They can’t even a lot? Which means? I started playing gears when you where about 9 yrs old. And again I play everything. Yes the game was broken when it launched. Won’t be the last game either. But the game reviewed well enough.

  • oreeeo Uriel (@oreeeo) reported

    @Charalanahzard @PezRadar Adam doesn't have mirrors in his home anymore. He used to stare for hours. It was a problem.

  • ffmmdreza ffmmdreza (@ffmmdreza) reported

    @CoalitionGears Does UE5 solve the empty sandbox problem? Or the problem of bad story and bad characters? I mean it's not an honor to move to UE5 when probably lots of Studios are doing this, u even didn't make that engine yourself to be proud about it. Man try to make at least of good game.

  • tc_sera TC Sera (@tc_sera) reported

    @Brixington1 @CoalitionGears @aarongreenberg We are not working on any such title. We have nothing else to announce at this time.

  • temporalwar HuntsVegas (@temporalwar) reported

    @CoalitionGears can you fix our gears of war accounts first?

  • FadyenRoss Ross McFadyen (@FadyenRoss) reported

    @RAfraido @GearsofWar It’ll fix itself after a few days it happened to me

  • nazaguerrero Andres Guerrero (@nazaguerrero) reported

    @ffmmdreza @CoalitionGears is not a masterpiece but it's easily an 8+ game How can that be bad?. I would not change your opinion but be objective dude, you are probably disappointed in something but that's your problem don't **** the game bc of your frustrations

  • Ahayzo Andrew (@Ahayzo) reported

    @CoalitionGears Is there any intention to fix the playlist issues you guys somehow managed to break in the last few months on 3 / Judgment? Not sure how we keep getting reset to old server versions with missing maps and modes, but it's kinda getting annoying.

  • EditzOutlaw I’m that ****** weeb dude you don’t like (@EditzOutlaw) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix her hands damn it

  • xBLINDEDx21 Mikey G (@xBLINDEDx21) reported

    @GearsofWar Are you guys ever going to fix the gnasher 🥺

  • so_bewitching Megan Embree (@so_bewitching) reported

    @PezRadar Ya I might go back in this weekend and bring all the papers and beg. I'm shocked at the difference of quality between the in-store service and the online with this. Normally Costco is SO on point.

  • EduardoDemn Eduardo Gutiérrez (@EduardoDemn) reported

    @CoalitionGears Hoping you fix the ****** game you made since season 3.

  • AirynXI Airyn (@AirynXI) reported

    @bear_danny19911 @CoalitionGears if its such a dead game why are you writing a whole paragraph on how to quote on quote fix it

  • JayBlunders Jared Harmon (@JayBlunders) reported

    @PezRadar Tape it to the next closest toe.. that's about all you can do. Trust me - I've broken mine about a dozen different times 👌

  • CTRLHypeWall HypeWall 🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈 (@CTRLHypeWall) reported

    ONCE AGAIN…….trying to use Gears 5 chat in ranked and my game crashes This has happened too many times now FIX UR GAME @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar @TC_Shauny

  • bear_danny19911 Danny (@bear_danny19911) reported

    @CoalitionGears Such a dead game here’s a tip for your next game don’t do a live service model & make sure the game is content filled with lots of progression based content on launch also no recycling of old maps this game has been nothing but a disappointment & a complete waste of time

  • DannTheDino Daniel Evans (@DannTheDino) reported

    @ianwilgaus @Angykait @CoalitionGears Since I was 9? Lol do you even know how old I am? I have played since gears of war launch. The way 5 launched was a disaster. I will give credit that they stated to fix but then they started listening to people like you and the game went to ****.

  • KITTYCATALERT Kitty Cat Alert =^.^= (@KITTYCATALERT) reported

    @QuotientSepia @CoalitionGears They said they aren’t happy with those currently A fix should be coming soon

  • itsmikeyytho itsMikeytho (@itsmikeyytho) reported

    @Reality47476204 @GearsofWar No problem man. That's your opinion and you're entitled to it. Personally I really liked Gears 4, and Gears 5 is one of my most played games, so chances are I'll like whatever Gears 6 turns out to be. 👍

  • mugglemama13 MuggleMama (@mugglemama13) reported

    @PezRadar Oof. Hope it heals soon! And it doesn't negatively effect your work outs. Can't imagine doing things like squats with a broken toe. 😬

  • CTRLHypeWall HypeWall 🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈 (@CTRLHypeWall) reported

    @GearsofHaIo @TC_Shauny I hope not, @CoalitionGears hasn’t tweeted anything regarding a store problem so I hope not

  • TrialMacameau TrialMacameau (@TrialMacameau) reported

    @ffmmdreza @CoalitionGears And I know because I watched a behind the scenes on youtube about this for Alien Isolation which uses an In-House Engine that Creative Assembly made. It takes a lot of coding and tests to make sure we don't get a crash while playing.

  • Reality47476204 RealityCheck (@Reality47476204) reported

    @HydroVoth @CoalitionGears You have to remember, they hate PvE fans. Their anti-consumer approach has been an issue for years, @TCMichaelAOS has been out of touch with the community, and nobody on the team seems to care about the fans in any sense. They should all be removed from the franchise.

  • ElmoMiiii TickleMiiiiElmo (@ElmoMiiii) reported

    @shortywannaxbox @CoalitionGears I believe they going in that direction honestly. They spent 95% of gears5 life fixing critical errors from launch in the gameplay. I hope for gears6 it’s polished at the start where they only need little tweaks not gameplay altering changes for example game speed.

  • QuotientSepia Sepia Quotient (@QuotientSepia) reported

    @irrelevanterKek @CoalitionGears @vicious696 Could, but still a rumor. At least it was clear they’re not working in a game like it now, so confirmation from the Studio is better for me that some site/person on internet. And its good, Gears 5 still needs work and content.

  • Reality47476204 RealityCheck (@Reality47476204) reported

    @bear_danny19911 @CoalitionGears The live service is Phil's push for Gamepass, to trick suckers into continually paying for a multiplayer game on top of the built in MTX. That's why he took Xbox 3rd party, there's a lot of profit to be had by naive consumers who think Gamepass is a value.

  • Themadn1nja Joshua (@Themadn1nja) reported

    @Abel36939839 @CoalitionGears Or a grown man like you can just stop crying about a broken game that the coalition refuses to fix. But yeah sure let's make this game more appealing to noob's who only use flash bang and gnasher.
