  • GabrielMBelmont Gabriel (@GabrielMBelmont) reported

    @CoalitionGears Hi folks, I have a problem with the optimized version of Gears5 on my SeriesX, the game just doesn't work and crashes the console. It is impossible for me to play it. And it is the only game with which I have that problem. What do you recommend me to do? Thank you

  • Andrea67013305 Andrea (@Andrea67013305) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix the crush of gears 5 in the series x cmon

  • UtmostPotential Crown D.Brown👑 (@UtmostPotential) reported

    @CoalitionGears Why is their a hill in execution with No execution rules.. I swear 🥴 If it ain’t broke don’t fix it !!

  • thg_fontes Meu coração é Vermelho ❤️ (@thg_fontes) reported

    @GearsofWar hey, gears! I am with a problem at gears 5, some of my protector character cards does not upgrade, and they still at lvl 1. I don’t know what happen and what to do to fix it. Can you help?

  • Vernon_McFadden Vernon Is In 2022. Happy Valentine's Day (@Vernon_McFadden) reported from Portland, Oregon

    @PezRadar I'm interested, but medical issues forced me into retirement from onsite jobs.

  • StephenWalsh94 Stephen Walsh (@StephenWalsh94) reported

    @GearsofWar Why are your devs point blank ignoring the serious issues the gnasher has in ranked? Missing pellets, piss poor gin range and the insane sponging. Put it back to what it was in operation 3. Never had my stress levels so high because of a game before

  • Chris__Genesis P v D I L L v (@Chris__Genesis) reported

    @GearsEsports @CellzSZN @GearsofWar Nice! IMO spotting needs to be needed in the next gears. It’s broken that it’s literally a temporary wall hack and smokes are pointless if you’re already spotted. Maybe make it like space for when you spot it marks the area where the enemy is, not the actual player

  • ImVane__ Dillon (@ImVane__) reported

    @CoalitionGears Fix your inconsistent gnasher im sick of shooting a kid for one pellet when i clearly point blank him. **** game

  • JJ828_ Lightning (@JJ828_) reported

    @GearsofWar @Kareca_art honestly, I'd rather you fix the exposed neck glitch on black steel myrrah.

  • NoahWestbrook7 Noah Westbrook (@NoahWestbrook7) reported

    @CoalitionGears Y’all need to pull away from this kait bullshit who gives a **** focus on Marcus dom in the pendulum wars and fix your god damn multiplayer and maybe people will play gears again stop killing the gears name make gears like gears 1 and 2

  • JaviBonedLopera Javi Cor Petit (@JaviBonedLopera) reported

    @CoalitionGears Also playing Offline it means = No toxic players in your match or problems with internet Playing with humans is not so "cool" as the people thing. I've had humans partners so useless like the A.I companions. So, why we are forced to play the multiplayer online?.

  • KonradPolit Konrad Polit (@KonradPolit) reported

    @PezRadar ladder was promised to go out 7 days after premiere, today it's been 5 months since the launch and we still don't know the ladder date, and the basic bugs, such as the chat problem, have still not been resolved. Do you know how many people love this game?

  • Malrx4 Marlx (@Malrx4) reported

    @RavenArcher774 @GearsofWar I really want to say that Gears5 is the best in the series and that the issue of obtaining this title was not difficult....but I'm sure someone will come and tell me how I deserve to die for hurting his feelings...

  • NefertitiKoopa Nεfεяτίτί Kσσpα™ (@NefertitiKoopa) reported

    @PezRadar yup! when i worked events i was contracted for, i'd get groupons for parking near the airport instead of ordering an uber or shuttle service. it always came out cheaper, especially if i used a lot near the airport instead of AT the airport

  • slayer_irish 🤔 (@slayer_irish) reported

    Hey #Microsoft fix your trash third world nation servers! #Gears5 has lag and packet loss that I have never seen before not even in low budget games! You buy Activision for 70 billion and you can't provide your customers with quality servers? The @CoalitionGears are Scrubs

  • Sharky9345 sharky7893 (@Sharky9345) reported

    @GearsofWar how do I fix my global text on xbox live my friends and opposing teams cant see my text chats how can I solve this issue?

  • Methodikul Methodikul (blm) (@Methodikul) reported

    @JoshOfWar_ @GearsofWar YOU'LL GET YOUR FENIX COLLECTION WHEN YOU FIX THIS DAMN GAME!

  • hiatus23 Batowsigh (@hiatus23) reported

    @CoalitionGears @XboxP3 gears 2 definitely deserves an ultimate edition and so does gears 3 done properly not all 3 games thrown into one project let these devs take their time with one game at a time and it'll be worth so much more than just putting tap on a old broken game

  • OfficialKevn12 Kevin Bryan (@OfficialKevn12) reported

    @GearsofWar Is there a way I can stop lagging on ranked? My connection is more than good enough and I don’t even lag on quickplay.

  • ZeftDaBest Zeft |🌎| Realm Crew (@ZeftDaBest) reported

    @GearsofWar What I think happened is when I got the disconnect symbol on my screen, I was still sliding into the wall on his screen. Only ever happens in fights

  • go_titania titania (@go_titania) reported

    I've been starting games with a lag that is not normal, but the funny thing about this is that I have my Ping 20, even so the signal comes out below that the game goes like ****. I swear I would hit you a mucus in your face @CoalitionGears

  • Lu_ke_v Luke (@Lu_ke_v) reported

    @Andrea67013305 @GearsofWar Maybe an Xbox problem then cause I have the same issue but for vanguard

  • ghostlysz Kazuma Kiryu (@ghostlysz) reported

    @CoalitionGears Gears 5 shut down my newly bought xbox series x. Is this a gears 5 problem or my xbox series x is faulty? I can play other games without any problem. I've completed the Halo: infinite and nothing happened to my xbox

  • FrankMorgan5270 Frank Morgan (@FrankMorgan5270) reported

    @CoalitionGears Please fix gears 5 crashing on series x

  • Chris__Genesis P v D I L L v (@Chris__Genesis) reported

    @GearsEsports @CellzSZN @GearsofWar Nice! IMO spotting needs to be merged in the next gears. It’s broken that it’s literally a temporary wall hack and smoke are pointless if you already spotted. Maybe make it like space for when you spot it marks the area where the enemy is, not the actual player

  • LambentLordRAAM LambentLordRAAM (@LambentLordRAAM) reported

    @CoalitionGears @Community_Gears @Community_Gears you guys need to make this right & fix the hard crashing issue plaguing the community on the series X.

  • blviper31 benjaminlimback (@blviper31) reported

    @PezRadar problem is it is in california and i would require directorate role and complete control of the entirety diablo-verse not to mention lack of compensation noted.

  • Sirbinner Sir Binner Cortés (@Sirbinner) reported

    @Acells_ @CoalitionGears fix ur game plaease

  • Fake12thPOTUS Zachary Taylor (@Fake12thPOTUS) reported

    @PezRadar How about a fix for Charged Strike getting Synergy from Lightning Fury? Hybrid Zons using bows and only those two Javelin skills took bit of a hit with that removal. CS for bosses, LF for mobs, and Frozen Arrow (w/ max Cold Arrow for synergy) for immunes.
