    @Pepea26753720 @GearsofWar Think Im @ 9. Stopped in Op2. Know I can make it to 50. But why do I want to frustrate myself w/ this game when the servers are TERRIBLE? ESPECIALLY lately. Fix server Ping/connections. Feel bad for the grinders that gave their life b4 this XP change. But it's how TC works I feel

  • Inception_PB Daniel Rodríguez (@Inception_PB) reported

    @Frod054 @GearsofWar You mad because you can’t hyper bounce your way out of trouble anymore? Mad because you can’t exploit back A’s anymore? Try getting good 💪🏼😎

  • LvxGoW HvNz Lex (@LvxGoW) reported

    @CoalitionGears @TC_Kilo I'm currently in a match with 1600 (!) ping... Can you guys PLEASE fix your servers. Should be the no. 1 priority rn if it's not already. :(

  • Volantpanda4583 volantpanda4583 (@Volantpanda4583) reported

    @TC_Kilo @Mattdrenaline @CoalitionGears It's not your fault it's Microsoft problem and you didn't answer my question earlier if you can kindly do plz

  • TriangularPrzm 2020 (@TriangularPrzm) reported

    @GearsofWar fix your ******* game! Tradh *** devs

  • RobArctic Rob | Arctic RR (@RobArctic) reported

    @TerryHB_ @Mattdrenaline @CoalitionGears im not gonna go back and find it but when they had server issues like 6 months ago they tweeted out saying it wasn't exclusive to Gears of War as the servers are owned and maintained by a different company and it was affecting a multitude of different games

  • TC_Kilo TC Kilo (@TC_Kilo) reported

    @skrippies @Mattdrenaline @CoalitionGears Currently a known issue that we're looking to address as soon as we can!

  • Prodigy7kX Gabriel Silva (@Prodigy7kX) reported

    @MuRRizzLe @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears Yeess, i thought i was the only one getting this error... Sucks, but glad its not on my end only!

  • leoncachondo25 Leoncachondo25 (@leoncachondo25) reported

    @CoalitionGears error ranges I had a serious problem with my rank yesterday it was diamond 2 and out of nowhere I got an error and I went down to onix 3 and I had to go back up to diamond 2 then I was already in diamond 3 near master and the same error appeared and I get off

  • SASxVEN0MZz New year VEN0MZz (@SASxVEN0MZz) reported

    @SyntaxTBE @TC_Kilo @CoalitionGears Servers seem to be doing slightly better since Tuesdays update. Remember and make a support ticket if your still having problems

  • dustinbates54 dustin bates (@dustinbates54) reported

    @CoalitionGears Can anyone tell me is there a way to fix sometimes when I'm playing hored my guns keep reloading

  • Mattdrenaline Mattdrenaline (Master Of Ranked) (@Mattdrenaline) reported

    Mister Kilo has replied. Hazaaahh “Oh man the tags! We have been acknowledging the server issues from @CoalitionGears but it's something we're continuing to chase up, there's just nothing more to say currently” - TC Kilo It seems he has mentioned it previously.

  • Inception_PB Daniel Rodríguez (@Inception_PB) reported

    @Frod054 @GearsofWar Lol, I would lancer the crap out of people like you and you’d all get salty to the point where they had to nerf it. I don’t hyper bounce because good players don’t need cheap “tactics” like that. Y’all simply mad because your only solution to problems was nerfed. Learn to play 🤡

  • Nightwing3650 Roger S (@Nightwing3650) reported

    @CoalitionGears i have 4 days left on my boost and i cant even play Please fix the game

  • TC_Kilo TC Kilo (@TC_Kilo) reported

    @Mattdrenaline Oh man the tags! We have been acknowledging the server issues from @CoalitionGears but it's something we're continuing to chase up, there's just nothing more to say currently :(

  • frostxfy Sculias (Frostxfy) (@frostxfy) reported

    @GearsofWar fix your **** servers honestly the worst servers I think I've been on in a while. @CoalitionGears please fix this game I cant enjoy the game when theres server issues poor matchmaking putting me in lobbies with masters!! (Like wtf)

  • jmelia123 James Melia (@jmelia123) reported

    @Mattdrenaline @CoalitionGears Yep, he mentions it every day, if it's a deep routed infrastructure problem then it could take a while.

  • DannyStaley3 🖤🌿 (@DannyStaley3) reported

    @CoalitionGears ARE YOU GUYS GONNA FIX THE WAKAATU IN THE NEW HORDE EVENT? Honestly everytime it gets stuck underground damn it

  • TriangularPrzm 2021 (@TriangularPrzm) reported

    @GearsofWar fix everything! EVERYTHING!

  • TheLoneCourier_ Loam Courier🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@TheLoneCourier_) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar can you fix the ******* Gears 5 servers? It’s actually terrible. How can you lot seriously try to foster a competitive environment in your ranked modes with the sheer amount of lag and rubber banding going on, want to repopulate the game? Fix it first.

  • K1ll3rXtreme XtremeK1ll3r (@K1ll3rXtreme) reported

    @runnerofendz @GearsofWar Exactly so i stop supporting and giving money to them fi they dont change and fix all this bs

  • Dillan540 Dillan Turner (@Dillan540) reported

    @MassGrave_ @CoalitionGears From what I gather the newest Gaming Services Update hasn't been whitelisted by Easy Anti Cheat yet. Until they push an update it's broken.

  • SyntaxTBE Syntax (@SyntaxTBE) reported

    @TC_Kilo @CoalitionGears Fix the servers

  • Jason24cf Jason Laboy Photography (@Jason24cf) reported

    @TC_Kilo @CoalitionGears As well as the connection issues. I’m shooting people point blank and they are eating shots. I seen @TheRazoredEdge also shared a video at how bad the sponging is.

  • MassGrave_ MassGrave (@MassGrave_) reported

    @CoalitionGears Do you guys know anything about "Untrusted System File" it keeps mentioning the xgameruntime.dll file. Happened last night around midnight. Haven't been able to play the game since. Seen a couple people having the same issue.

  • Dayntee Brandy Camel (@Dayntee) reported

    @PezRadar 😬 Double-edged sword, as some of my WA income will be taxed as California labor because of moving three months after starting. Thankfully, that's a first-year issue, but OOF.

  • Jared_Sadler Roger D Altughery (@Jared_Sadler) reported

    @GearsofWar is Gears of War: Ultimate Edition ever going to get it's terrible PC performance issues fixed?

  • Broman1978 Matthias Broman (@Broman1978) reported

    @CoalitionGears Problems with servers today? Been rubberbanding all day:( (sweden)

  • MassGrave_ MassGrave (@MassGrave_) reported

    @GearsofWar I can't even get on the train. Got an Untrusted System File error and it is only on Gears 5.

  • Gzprime2 Negan/The Saviors (@Gzprime2) reported

    @GearsofWar Will you fix Anya’s hands in her new skin? That’s unacceptable. @TC_Kilo
