    @CoalitionGears The ranking system is not working properly...

  • llMakerll Humberto Escalante (@llMakerll) reported

    @CoalitionGears where can we submit a problem? I think long shots with the gnasher are causing "too much damage" that causes a red screen (like when you are above 90% damage) when its clearly not the case.

  • tonymiller1980 Tony Miller (@tonymiller1980) reported

    @CoalitionGears Can you please fix the grind season achievement bug too? It doesn’t pop up. I have won at least 50 games still nothing. Gamertag is TonyBearPaws

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar is the servers lagging? the game feels off and ive had lots of lag spikes, id say about 10 per match

  • Viggora Viggora (@Viggora) reported

    @Decadence_3 @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Koth had a lot of problems. Control fixes those and makes the game run better. A lot of people agree hence why it's here now.

    @Rhaegar8642 @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Add more fps and less input lag and it is to play in total advantage that is the reason why people from console migrate to PC

  • Rhaegar8642 Rhaegar (@Rhaegar8642) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar I love the game and love the Operation but some regions are hating the online multiplayer experience because of our ping. No content Creator or streamer will help voice our frustration with this issue. They have the platform but it’s just used for self gain.. Please help🥺💔

  • Stev1e_B Stevie B (@Stev1e_B) reported

    @CoalitionGears Just get the game to play correctly! High ping creates lag. Half the shots don’t Register, playing lower graded players sponge and sometimes the guns don’t fire in specific situations. Worst gears I’ve ever known in all its years!

  • Decadence_3 Decadence (@Decadence_3) reported

    @NoxiousNicholas @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar I'm sure lots would immediately stop playing control for koth. What would the community prefer? What do you think? Which mode would have more people? If the answer is koth then we have a problem. I personally prefer 4v4 control.

    @CoalitionGears I know I'm not the only one with these kinds of problems, but please don't act that way. Money is being stolen from many of us who strive to earn it.

    @carlossora145 @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar That’s a lot of money.. not ever console player can afford it though.. why market the game here and charge money for it when you can’t deliver a basic support system like a server.. EA got in trouble for that over here
