    @LtMinhYung @MagicArtist1 @GearsofWar Gameplay isn’t the issue, issue is balancing. And there is nothing wrong with guest characters, especially when ur trying to compare it to characters from the campaign and are in the same game

    @GearsofWar what is haopening with the servers of this game?, matchmaking it's beyond awful and the service it's not for free

  • ItsthaLevi itsthaLevi (@ItsthaLevi) reported

    @CoalitionGears @Community_Gears don't you hate people kicking for no reason just because you are Quote-on-Quote "Cheating and Hacking" in a Custom Lobby and having a Last Gen console by playing Gears 5. That's what me and @MaxyAmericawolf problems are having. 1/3

  • BergmanZachary Backary Zergman (@BergmanZachary) reported

    @TayPate98 @GearsofWar So telling them you're leaving is gonna make them maybe hopefully go "oh no, wait, let's fix it and directly respond and set a precedent for placating to people who threaten us with their business!" Like .. is that seriously the angle you're choosing to go? Just that desperate?

  • ElReydereyesss Wamawei 🍥 (@ElReydereyesss) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix gears 5 for the steam deck. @Community_Gears

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @BergmanZachary @GearsofWar I’ve already tweeted at them like 5 times to fix the servers and many other people have obviously complained as well so maybe you can understand my frustration with TC.

  • AnTiVirus_4 AnTiVirus4 (@AnTiVirus_4) reported

    @HawKNLoaD @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar When DSL starts lagging.. lol

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @BergmanZachary @GearsofWar Please tell me what’s wrong with that? I’ve already proved you wrong that it’s not just me lagging so I’m not really getting your point.

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @BergmanZachary @GearsofWar I’m convinced you’re just a troll honestly. I literally just proved you wrong and with all the evidence I just showed a reasonable person can presume many other people are also dealing with the server issues.

  • petey_pro zNOTHINGFACEz (@petey_pro) reported

    @TayPate98 @GearsofWar Directly connect to the internet. I don't have lag issues. You playing on X1?

  • RMABaugi47 Baugi47 (@RMABaugi47) reported

    @PezRadar trying to play D2R on console but my abilties on the bar keeps resetting every time I join a new game. Its been like this over a month. I try the game once a week to see if yall fix it but nothing. Any fix coming? Or you guys know about this?

  • SqualoForte Mickey (@SqualoForte) reported

    @CoalitionGears what is haopening with the servers of this game?, matchmaking it's beyond awful and the service it's not for free

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @BergmanZachary @GearsofWar Yeah ******* for not wanting to lag every single time I play Gears 5 because TC won’t fix the servers.

  • Ej_Scorpion Edgar Guerrero (@Ej_Scorpion) reported

    @CoalitionGears @siggraph Guys, please fix Gears Ultimate Edition for Windows achievements please

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @GearsofWar I will never buy anything from The Coalition ever again. You guys refuse to fix the servers and ignore all the complaints.

    @GearsofWar Fix gow5 packet loss plz

  • Nynoen Nate (@Nynoen) reported

    @GearsofWar Are you ever going to fix your ******* crap matching making server, because 5 minutes to find a game with 8 people it's uncalled for. Please DO NOT develope anymore games and give this back to Epic. With them, it didn't take 15 minutes to match up in a ranked game...

  • Dontmesswith_T Casual T (@Dontmesswith_T) reported

    @GearsofWar The end of any versus match always gives an error message, is there a fix?

  • HelpusCoalition Help Us Coalition (@HelpusCoalition) reported

    @CoalitionGears please help us fix #gears5. Do you know crappy it is to sit here with a ping of 22 ms but packet loss so bad that you cant even get a kill. This is crazy. Im ranked 750 in the world guys. If you dont deliver a solid #gears6 im going to probably hang up the guns

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @GearsofWar @AntiHeroZemm @Community_Gears Why will you guys not acknowledge that the servers are broken? This is beyond ridiculous. I have constant packet loss every single match. I know it’s 100% not my connection either. The least you could do is announce you’re looking in to it.
