    @CoalitionGears you need to do a fix to gears 2/3 rank reset as it will be alot more common with xbox one being able to exit the game so easily which is what can cause the rank reset. just had it happen to me and i will never play gears again because of it.

  • Uotit2 Uotit (@Uotit2) reported

  • Seven_up_94 Seven (@Seven_up_94) reported

    @GearsofWar fix the seriously 5.0 chap 2 achievement please

  • rudeism Rudeism (@rudeism) reported

    @uncannyvivek @GearsofWar I noticed that exact issue when I was filming this. AFAIK, Gears 5 doesn't support full button remapping? Could be wrong, might need to double check, but that's a bit of a shame if not. Glad you figured out a backup plan though 👌

  • Ej_Scorpion Edgar Guerrero (@Ej_Scorpion) reported

    @CoalitionGears @MEGAMIGSFest @CoalitionGears fix Gears Tactics Achievements please

  • Malrx4 Marlx (@Malrx4) reported

    @Jay__Smith09 @GearsofWar I have a huge Problem With Gameplay☝

  • brokenvRoyal Royal_Hunter_XCロイズ (@brokenvRoyal) reported

    @enterD6S @GearsofWar I like the idea of them doing that because it would give everyone a chance again to get them along with all the other black steel characters I don't see a problem with giving it out just like other games giving out content

  • Ej_Scorpion Edgar Guerrero (@Ej_Scorpion) reported

    @CoalitionGears @colinpenty @CoalitionGears please fix the achievements on Gears Tactics 🙌

  • venaliter Venaliter (@venaliter) reported

    @PezRadar GOBLIN ABUSE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE. Millions of my kind suffer every year, Pez! :P

  • Kaos_Nitsua Austin Sheetz (@Kaos_Nitsua) reported

    @CoalitionGears @MEGAMIGSFest Can someone from the coalition please do something about my missing Black steel UIR soldier I bought it on October 29th and I've followed every step to fix it and nothing is working.

  • MF_Dunn_ NMF | Dunn (@MF_Dunn_) reported

    @LtMinhYung @GearsofWar The problem is whatever the devs do to Gears, the new players will never learn. Gears 5 is a good example of that. Slow movement and terrible shot delay everywhere and the new players are still cant adapt

  • Ej_Scorpion Edgar Guerrero (@Ej_Scorpion) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix achievements please

  • VReddy_007 Vishwanath Reddy (@VReddy_007) reported

    @Steam its been over 3 days since I placed a refund request on a game I purchased @GearsofWar, due to a technical issue with the download. I still haven't received my refund or any communication from steam support, Please help. vishwanath31 is the username.

  • SpellWolfheart WolfheartSpell (@SpellWolfheart) reported

    @CoalitionGears any news on a fix for the Seriously 5.0 Chapter @ achievement?

  • OculusDiaboli SalsaTV ᏰᏗᏰᎩ! (@OculusDiaboli) reported

    @CoalitionGears fix this stupid game... getting kicked out from a match and being penalized has been going on since Launch. Get your **** together.

  • trom_bonafide The Gooselord (@trom_bonafide) reported

    @GearsofWar When are y’all going to address the issues with tracking for Seriously 5.2 and the numerous other achievements that Op 8.2 broke? People have been stuck at 99% for two months or more.

  • Yondergrunt12 YonderGrunt (@Yondergrunt12) reported

    @GearsofWar I’ll keep tweeting til you guys give a crap. FIX THE ACHIEVEMENT TRACKING IN YOUR GAME

  • rudeism Rudeism (@rudeism) reported

    @AzureusBlaze @GearsofWar In function, yeah, it's essentially that. But if it only affects single player & co-op, what's the issue, right? It's there for folks who need it, and it doesn't negatively impact folks who don't. Win/win in my book 👌

  • swungsolid Kenneth Mitchell (@swungsolid) reported

    @CoalitionGears @MEGAMIGSFest Please for the love of God get cliff back on gears and fix the damage issue with the gnasher!

  • Uotit2 Uotit (@Uotit2) reported

  • robertwalton10 Robert Walton (@robertwalton10) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix the gnasher sick of hitting point blank shots for 0 damage stop messing with the tuning just to please wannabe esports players

  • Protozoa88 Toe (@Protozoa88) reported

    @GearsofWar This is fantastic news!! Is their anyway to fix the slight off and on flashing you get on the GoW Ultimate Edition? Seems as though the resolution doesnt lock and it renders back and forth from a softer and sharper image.

  • LambentLordRAAM LambentLordRAAM (@LambentLordRAAM) reported

    @xSonoshee @BerndPannier @GearsofWar It’ll fix itself eventually

  • RealBotGT1 RealBotGT (@RealBotGT1) reported

    @GearsofWar I'm having an issue downloading GOW UE on my Xbox, it's been downloading all day and just got 37% progress, I've downloaded bigger games faster, download speed shows no issue with my isp

  • VReddy_007 Vishwanath Reddy (@VReddy_007) reported

    @Steam_Support its been almost 3 days since i placed a refund request for a game i purchased @GearsofWar couldn't even install the game, due to some download issue, still haven't received my refund, please help. vishwanath31 is the username. #steamrefund

  • xSonoshee Sonoshee (@xSonoshee) reported

    @BerndPannier @GearsofWar Rank is reset everytime you login to J, guess its like that with 3 as well? People will wanna fight the Reaper for their weapon skins everytime they log in LOL

  • TerryHB_ Terry (@TerryHB_) reported

    @xGeoThumbs @GearsofWar Yeah just a strange issue. Hopefully something gets sorted. Right now I guess the place to play these games at high resolution and fps is PC with delta online, Gears New Hopen and the poor UE port
