    @GearsofWar any chance yall could address the fact that pc is unplayable? Every game on pc drop to 20 fps sometimes worse, and it’s not just me all of the people I play with have the same issue.

    @GearsofWar @RattaRodriguez Just to be clear you need to stop putting us on servers with other nations because it causes ping issues and server issues thats why it’s so bad and most of the time you can’t even kill players. It’s like your giving them the opportunity to kill us.

  • Immortal_IG ESS IMMORTAL (@Immortal_IG) reported

    @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears You have an issue with Controller Input via Xbox App on PC. Causing your game to lag.... if you switch to MnK then no problem at all.... But major issue on your end with this compatibility. #GearsOfWarReloaded

    @Diablo @PezRadar A minor problem in SHOP of Diablo 4. The Cosmetics tab can be scrolled using up-down keys but not the Special Offers tab. Is this some intended design? My mouse wheel is f’ed up so I can’t even view the Offers.

  • MongojrTTV Major Tom (@MongojrTTV) reported

    @CoalitionGears @CrisisTextLine @discord Are you going to fix your game? The gnasher in Gears Reloaded is basically a pop gun then randomly BOOM you get a kill.

  • xChewy_ Chewy (@xChewy_) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Servers are absolutely awful. Gnasher is the most inconsistent Gnasher we’ve ever had. Hit registration is appalling. And people are still crab walking everywhere. Please, for the love of god fix these issues or your game will inevitably die!

  • Qvyn1 Qvyn~ CsL (@Qvyn1) reported

    Not only do you lag in general on Reloaded but now players have the ability to “lag switch” a game and completely Boot you from the game. Happen to me just now. Player responsible name was Rebirth V5 @GearsofWar

  • Celtics_fan78 That Guy (@Celtics_fan78) reported

    @PezRadar @Nabs_Tagger @Diablo While you're at it can you fix preparation on rogue it's only counting one instance or using 75 energy so even if you get your DT cool down below 10 sec you still get 5 sec cool down even if you use 150 energy all at once making DT ( death trap ) almost unplayable.

  • King_Contrarian King Contrarian (@King_Contrarian) reported

    @GearsofWar FIX CASUAL TEAM DEATH MATCH MAPS!!! I’ve been playing since the original gears of war since November 2006. The identity of that game was that you had map freedom you had the choice to only play gridlock if you wanted to. You have not captured the identity of the original game when you’re forced to play the map that’s populated randomly before a game begins. Not a single person ever vetoes or votes against the map. I’ve seen gridlock as a map 5% out of 20 matches. Canals the same thing. But I’ve probably played bullet marsh 20% out of 20 games…a DLC map that not a single person would play!! You couldn’t find 10 people to play that map if you search that map up!! But now you want millions of people to play that as a representation of the game!!! You people literally have no ******* idea what you’re doing!!

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Bro if I’m searching a ******* AU region server, don’t put me anywhere else. Put me in a ******* AU server. Fix this ****. It’s literally unplayable when put into other regions
