  • MiguelMera12 Miguel Mera (@MiguelMera12) reported

    @CoalitionGears You guys need to restore the title update for gears 3 cause people can’t play forces of nature and I can’t get the socialite achievement it’s very unfair to the people that just bought this game I would greatly appreciate it if you guys can fix it

  • 808s_and_Jay Jay😍🐻 (@808s_and_Jay) reported

    @TheLifeofAboi @GearsofWar bro i started gears 1 so i could continue the storyline and i remembered why 1 is my least favorite. it’s so broken and the physics are what you expect from a 2006 game

  • AliasMagnus718 Magnus One (@AliasMagnus718) reported

    @CoalitionGears Are you guys ******* stupid? Who said any of those things were problems? Just like you guys taking KOTH out of social, for Control. Complete stupidity.

  • Dexmuh2 Dexmuh 2Real (@Dexmuh2) reported

    @GearsofWar @TCMichaelAOS Interesting. Fix wallbouncing please? Too many people wallbouncing like it’s part of the game. Can we move along with the bot walking movement only! I don’t understand why if I’m running or walking someone can bounce around me. Give me more aim assist and higher gib range!

  • _DARLINNG Hy Darling❤️ (@_DARLINNG) reported

    @DanielSchou1 @Twitch @CoalitionGears And? What's the problem? I don't have any problem with any guy on my streams because THEY RESPECT ME, please stop posting ****, your acting like an animal.

  • GPossessed God-possessed (@GPossessed) reported

    @CoalitionGears Quickplay lobbies keep getting bugged when someone joins.. they won’t respawn and the round keeps going even though everyone is eliminated.. when will this problem be fixed?? Also what’s up with the frame drops.. I’ve got fiber optics and only Gears does this.. update ASAP

  • PlayaSlaya149 Ahmed E Elmadhoun (@PlayaSlaya149) reported

  • init1aLz initiaLz (@init1aLz) reported

    @_DARLINNG @Twitch @CoalitionGears I just see it as kids being dumb. No grown adult would act that way. Disciplinary action would be muting them or blocking them. This is the 1st time ive ever heard of this group doing anything this juvenile. If this was an on going occurrence then it's a problem

  • RyanGRAA Ryan Jones (@RyanGRAA) reported

    Hey @CoalitionGears why do i keep getting gw502 error codes? It's annoying as ****. Fix it.

  • OptimusPine420 Atom B (@OptimusPine420) reported

    @CoalitionGears Stfu and fix ranked. I'm tired of playing with **** players instead of all the people I've met since gears 1 -_-

  • Xtreme2theT Xtreme Tactiicz (@Xtreme2theT) reported

    @ZiiTwitch @CoalitionGears I sent in a ticket years ago saying my global chat doesn’t work.. till this day nothing. Yesterday I did not stop posting to @tc_sera showing him my global chats not working (in his lobby) and still nothing. Getting a response from any Tc is a joke. They only respond to big names

  • realbigcheesetv BigCheeseTV (@realbigcheesetv) reported

    @GearsofWar can you do something about people being afk in ranked matches? It's a massive issue. The last couple of Onyx ranked games have cost me 1500 GP to enter only to have 2 AFK players. Urgent fix needed guys
