  • Voxelsaurus_Vex Voxelsaurus Vex (@Voxelsaurus_Vex) reported

    @GearsofWar Can you please fix the fact that offline players can now no longer pick any character or customisation options for offline/LAN play? You updated it and completely broke this.

  • DXKuno_77 🌸🖤 💀 Kunoichi77💀🖤🌸 (@DXKuno_77) reported

    @GearsofWar When are you going increase damage to the lancer (the main weapon of the franchise), and fix the ia of the bots? if they can't, hire me, programming is easy for me. In 2 months I can study the entire language.

  • AaronGl93748766 Aaron Glenn (@AaronGl93748766) reported

    @PezRadar @d2resurrected Please add Scaling/players command to Battlenet for console players UNTIL we get Lobbies and chat!!! Cause finding a 8 player game is damn near impossible on pa4/ps5!!! This would solve A lot of problems… especially the whole to many games being created would probably help que!.

  • ET3rNi7Y_GreeN Lorenzo (@ET3rNi7Y_GreeN) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix the Archievement pls! I can't finish the multiplayer! Please..... Do something!

  • SpiderSOAD SpiderSOAD (@SpiderSOAD) reported

    @GearsofWar will they fix the neck of the Myhrra BS?

  • SamTrueman93 Sam Trueman (@SamTrueman93) reported

    @trom_bonafide @GearsofWar Most likely will never be fixed. They simply don’t see it as a high priority. There’s at least 4 broken achievements.

  • Cuzami1 Cuzami (@Cuzami1) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix the servers in gow3 now

  • vmaun || A Z U R I E L || (@vmaun) reported

    @PezRadar Which service did you and @aramisx use? I wanna check it out.

  • Bullet19_ Bullet (@Bullet19_) reported

    @Decadence_3 @GearsofWar @Community_Gears You’re kidding me? Is there no fix at all?

  • AgentAden D3 Black Mamba (@AgentAden) reported

    @YoungHarlequin2 @TavidzTV @GearsofWar It really should have ended with 3. I would say though Raam’s shadow was actually really good and that came after 3 but otherwise I think Gears 3 had the perfect ending so there was no need to continue on with the series. The main issue here is the change of studio.

  • PaulLivo Livo (@PaulLivo) reported

    @TerryHB_ @GearsofWar It was never the impact it had on the Back A that was the issue. It was how it impacted the regular gameplay everywhere else too, resulting in mind numbingly dull engagements. But yes, there's many other contributing factors too.

  • PaulLivo Livo (@PaulLivo) reported

    @SASxSH4DOWZ @HindianOnTwitch @CoalitionGears ... To add, by no means do I expect you to do that because I know how you'll get pushed aside, silenced, banned if you do. If anything, I don't encourage it and that is the main issue, it doesn't feel like people are allowed to talk without punishment.

  • Bullet19_ Bullet (@Bullet19_) reported

    @GearsofWar Does gears 5 shut down your series x for anyone else? I tested halo and it didn’t happen to me on there, gears 5 it will crash, flash a green screen then shut down. Or it will shut down and show a black screen. Already sent it back but was curious.

  • GrubKillers KILL ALL GRUBS (@GrubKillers) reported

    @GearsofWar The unbreakable bond that is broken due to @CoalitionGears.

  • Andrxw452 Andrxw452 (@Andrxw452) reported

    @GearsofWar The “unbreakable bond” was broken with Gears 5 Broken updates, terrible tunings, poor seasons, lack lustre stores, giving up after 2 years, lack of innovation, only looking after the top 2% of the content creators, and so much more Please leave #Gearsfam TO the #Gearsfam.

  • Bullet19_ Bullet (@Bullet19_) reported

    @GearsofWar Does Gears 5 shutdown anyone else’s series x? Either a green screen or a black screen? Is it for gears 5 or is it a hardware issue?

  • Non_Photo_Blu Nathan (@Non_Photo_Blu) reported

    @Bullet19_ @GearsofWar Common issue. From what I’ve heard, only solution is to send your Xbox to Microsoft for a fix/replacement.

  • GRANTC0RE Grant Core (@GRANTC0RE) reported

    @GearsofWar Can you fix it so I can play frags only against bots in custom vs. The bots literally just stand there

  • ET3rNi7Y_GreeN Lorenzo (@ET3rNi7Y_GreeN) reported

    @GearsofWar Vaffanculo. Fix the Achiement! I can't end the G

  • confusedgeek Felipe Garcia (@confusedgeek) reported

    @GamesRadar Maybe the tracking issue in 5 can be fixed by then. @GearsofWar

  • trom_bonafide The Gooselord (@trom_bonafide) reported

    @GearsofWar Y’all got any plans for a Christmas event? XP or CXP boost? What about fixing all the broken achievements that TU8.2 broke? Hundreds of people are locked out of Seriously 5.2 still.

  • Cescga Cesar Escamilla (@Cescga) reported

    @GearsofWar The coop-Campaign sinc keeps failing. Fix it now

  • SpellWolfheart WolfheartSpell (@SpellWolfheart) reported

    @CoalitionGears Do we get to fix the Seriously 5 Chapter 2 achievement first?

  • SuperDeanio Dean Bergmann (@SuperDeanio) reported

    @PezRadar Sounds very similar to my experience. It's just been runny nose/congestion (which is now gone), cough and general mucus in my throat (which I still have). No trouble breathing, no brain cloudiness, and the general fatigue that would come with a common cold. Its just lingering.

  • Yondergrunt12 YonderGrunt (@Yondergrunt12) reported

    @Javixer88 @jmelia123 @GearsofWar Pretty traditional gears event that’s being broken here. Sorry he can’t ask a simple question without getting on your nerve

  • PaulLivo Livo (@PaulLivo) reported

    @SASxSH4DOWZ @HindianOnTwitch @CoalitionGears Please understand, it's smart for you to not make it. I'm not silly, I'm just saying it'd be interesting to listen to. I think it's a shame that you don't at least have an opinion on it, not voicing it is understandable but I'd hoped that everybody atleast understood the issues

  • YundtDerek Derek Yundt (@YundtDerek) reported

    @PezRadar Please stop allotting your precious time on items like Force move and Quick cast instead of core issues that are dragging this epic game down in the dumps. Focus instead, please, on the lobby and game list issues, a trade platform, guilds, and general server stability.
