    @PezRadar The reason behind TCP/IP still feels like BS, But fine your toys so whatever, but Provide us an alternative. You have said there will be an Offline mode you can enable, could TCP/IP be enabled only in that mode? Also, the Combat Bugs? Always Miss, Fend, Fury, Desummon? Fix? Pls

  • KinG33GoNzO KinG GoNzO (@KinG33GoNzO) reported

    @GearsofWar FIX COOP STORY graphic bugs disconnect etc

  • THExD20 brandon wofford (@THExD20) reported

    @PezRadar So what your saying is you dont care about the console and only released it there for the cash grab. Wtf? Jeeping it true to the original literally includes in game communication and custom lobbies. Sorry but trading lobbies need names plain and simple. Fix it

  • YungEli2o1 𝑲𝒓𝒖𝒆𝒍𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒛 ツ (@YungEli2o1) reported

    @GearsofWar fix ur servers please :)

  • acowsik Ashwin Cowsik (@acowsik) reported

    @jmelia123 @Community_Gears @GearsofWar It’s obvious from that but question is why are the servers shared? Makes no sense considering the impact a maintenance outage causes now. Gears 4 servers never needed any major maintenance per say since there are no game updates and active population is very low.

  • Kromethius Matthew Smith (@Kromethius) reported

    @Dowgfish @CoalitionGears Have you been able to fix it? I'm having the same issue.

  • bear_danny19911 Danny (@bear_danny19911) reported

    @GearsofWar Incompetence runs deep at tc might wanna check your 5 x xp your little hotfix fix removed 9x & reverted it back to default gains 1x such a trash dev instead of it being 5x 💩💩💩

  • rock_dj85 BonyJos (@rock_dj85) reported

    @Xbox @GearsofWar Hope @therealcliffyb can fix in Gow6 what this franchise has became .

  • Jack_Genna Vincenzo (@Jack_Genna) reported

    @GearsofWar why doesn't the xp multiplier work? have you broken something or have you decided to remove it? but didn't it end on day 13? i'm waiting for an answer. thanks

  • mokola73699118 mokola (@mokola73699118) reported

    @GearsofWar Will there be a fix for the „event planner“ achievement?! U work on the game right now!?

  • ghostmd2020 David (@ghostmd2020) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Why have you nerfed the class XP below the 5x XP event advertised?With no XP boost would get 1750xp for classes for completing escape on insane. That means should get 1750x5=8750Xp for this event, yet I’m only getting 5250xp which is not x5. Please fix this

  • URLNE72 Random Guy (@URLNE72) reported

    @lVlarty_ @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Nah, the game started giving stand 1x XP today, the hot was meant to bring it up to 5x… but apparently the hot fix didn’t work.

  • Jack_Genna Vincenzo (@Jack_Genna) reported

    @Community_Gears @GearsofWar Helloooooo??? The fix doesen t work!!

  • TopSliced TopSlice (@TopSliced) reported

    @xnshd @GearsofWar X10 was a glitch its actually ×5 or something

  • JustinIsbell11 Justin Isbell (@JustinIsbell11) reported

    @PezRadar I don't really care to voice chat, go through all that trouble just to say tp up. Or here's waypoint, that was one of the things I hated about diablo 3. What if a deaf person was playing, how are they suppose to communicate? Go through home screen and message each person?

  • JJ828_ Lightning (@JJ828_) reported

    @HighnessPurple @GearsofWar Well, that so called "whining" is why people who bought horizon forbidden west on the PS4 are getting the PS5 upgrade for free instead of paying another $80. If you want to stay silent be my guest. I'll voice my opinion so we can get better service for the players thank you.
