    @RodFergusson @PezRadar @Diablo do you think you'll ever fix trade channel chat only working when it wants to and after you log in, log out a 1000x does it randomly, for a time, work? #DiabloIV

  • KumoOfficcial Tr3y St4cks (@KumoOfficcial) reported

    @Gizmo3491 @GearsofWar My aim must be better because I had no problem. Maybe you are just too used to other gears games tbh

  • confusedgeek Felipe Garcia (@confusedgeek) reported

    @TrueAchievement How about broken achievements? Like @GearsofWar where you can’t get some because they stopped tracking? @CoalitionGears seems to never care when achievement are broken in their games.

  • meyerpark meyerpark 🔜Evo 2025 Las Vegas (@meyerpark) reported

    @VideoGameHstry Hoping Gears of War Xbox 360 servers fix the achievement of Death photo spectator upload. @Gearsofwar

    @GearsofWar please fix the gears of war 2 xp I wanna get my wings but the game is dead and I'm only getting 250 xp on social

  • williamjales01 William Douglas (@williamjales01) reported

    Hi @CoalitionGears, could you please release a small patch to fix Horde Mode in Gears of War 4 not working offline? I can play campaign and even local multiplayer without Xbox Live Gold, but Horde Mode won’t launch unless I’m connected I’d really love to play split-screen Horde🙏

  • hazyj28 Hazy J (@hazyj28) reported

    @GearsofWar Having Gears on Playstation is cool as hell. I cant wait for StarField either. I really hope StarField comes with an Xbox Live login and cross save functionality because I have hundreds of hours on the PC Gamepass version

  • KumoOfficcial Tr3y St4cks (@KumoOfficcial) reported

    @Gizmo3491 @GearsofWar Yeah i know it comes from the middle of the screen. It's supposed to. I like it that way and yes I know every other gears is different. Is that the reason you are saying they need to fix the shotgun?

  • Kevo_Four Kevin Salcie (@Kevo_Four) reported

    @FatalStryke @GearsofWar I only play PC now; I switched from console during Covid. The beta was frustrating because many turned off cross-play, which caused more problems than it solved.

  • CONS33TED CONS33TED (@CONS33TED) reported

    Has anyone actually tried running #GearsofWar through #Xbox Cloud on the Ultimate subscription? I tested it from my office; hard-wired to symmetrical gig fiber, on an @ASUS_ROG STRIX 18" laptop, paired with my @ScufGaming Instinct Pro. On paper, the setup eliminates every variable. Yet the experience was dreadful... Video quality collapsed, input lag made it unplayable. The bottleneck wasn’t mine. Truth is, the only reason I even maintain Ultimate is for the so-called “free-to-play” library. Waiting to accrue enough @BestBuy reward points to acquire the #XboxSeriesS for the office.

    @GearsofWar Can u guys fix coop online for all ur games it’s ******* broken!!

    @Gizmo3491 @GearsofWar It was never broken you just suck

  • CurtisLawMBA45 Curtis S. Lawson, MBA (@CurtisLawMBA45) reported

    @CoalitionGears having issues with connecting online with Xbox gamepass. I have a new subscription and reset the network, console and reinstalled the games and still can't play multiplayer

  • zlhypab 风雨雷电霜雪霾 (@zlhypab) reported

    @Diablo @PezRadar when are you guys gonna fix the damn double cooldown Grizzly Rage bug? It’s been TWO WEEKS into the season—are you busy filing bankruptcy papers or what?

  • TheDonmegaman Don🦦 (@TheDonmegaman) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix your other games fellas.

  • jjrambo91 Jack (@jjrambo91) reported

    @SHiNExTiME @GearsofWar No problem & thank you. This is awesome.👊🏼

  • KryptSet Kryptset (@KryptSet) reported

    2 things that MUST change for GOW Reloaded: Sniper body shots must have consistent damage.. Weapon sliding has to become a normal feature not a glitch so on LAN the game doesn’t drastically change @Community_Gears @CoalitionGears

  • Gizmo3491 Red (@Gizmo3491) reported

    @KumoOfficcial @GearsofWar no no you’re just very annoying. Also I do hope you enjoy your time on reloaded as will I but whether you realize it or not the gun is broken and negatively impacts the game. thats a little something I like to call Common sense.

  • cardinalComs cc ✂️ (@cardinalComs) reported

    @GearsofWar please fix your incredibly inconsistent gnasher

  • EARTHRAlNS ☂︎ ™︎ (@EARTHRAlNS) reported

    @GearsofWar Literally everybody sucks at gears sooooo much these PlayStation bots are about to ruin the franchise . They are gonna be worse then the lagging Mexicans

  • KumoOfficcial Tr3y St4cks (@KumoOfficcial) reported

    @thickslick02 @GearsofWar I'm paying for what i want... I want gears 1 and I love how reloaded is. Just because you don't and want to cry about it doesn't mean I have to not buy it. You are the one with the problem not me, I am gonna play day one and have a great time while you whine and cry

  • TTomcat98632 TheNewTomcat (@TTomcat98632) reported

    @SolarWing83 In January 2024 it was rumored GearsOfWar Ultimate Edition, Halo MCC and Forza Horizon 5 were going to PS5. Gears and Forza have already crossed over, so l would say its Halo MCC. But most likely not the ENTIRE Collection at once. Rather broken down and sold individually

  • KumoOfficcial Tr3y St4cks (@KumoOfficcial) reported

    @Gizmo3491 @GearsofWar I honestly have no problem with the bullets coming from center screen but I do get what you mean forsure. But they gotta make it like the og and that's how the og was, I'm sure sometime in the future we will get 2 and 3 remastered and that **** will be lit af

  • KumoOfficcial Tr3y St4cks (@KumoOfficcial) reported

    @53ider @GearsofWar It's not broken...

  • The_Stebe TheStebe (@The_Stebe) reported

    @Diablo Did they fix the rapport system claiming for couch co op? It’s been two seasons and still can’t claim any of the caches or coins @PezRadar

  • SHiNExTiME GsQ Shine (@SHiNExTiME) reported

    @CrRowLey__ @GearsofWar Any banner I’ve shared already that you want ? And no problem 😌

  • TommyK421 Balefire (@TommyK421) reported

    @The_Stebe @Diablo @PezRadar 6. Tempering system is annoyingly broken. Many more for the console version and it doesn’t seem like they care anymore.

  • TommyK421 Balefire (@TommyK421) reported

    @The_Stebe @Diablo @PezRadar There are SO many issues with co-op. 1. Your issue you mentioned with the mercs. 2. Buggy Wardrobe system 3. Cinder count not displaying for Helltide for player 2. 4. Aether count not displaying for Infernal Hordes for player 2. 5. Buggy graphics when comparing items.
