  • ramirezmau5 Mauricio (@ramirezmau5) reported

    @GearsofWar Can anyone help me? When TC launch a new update, something happens and my update has an error, and I have to reinstall my whole game, 60 G. I play on pc Thx

  • SASxSH4DOWZ Shadowz (@SASxSH4DOWZ) reported

    @Blunz_D @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears With Gears 5 being first live service game I think that's going to change. -The pandemic will have an impact with TC working remotely at home for over 1 year -Gears next will likely be on Unreal Engine 5 -After Gears 4/5 launches I think the team needs more time to do it right.

  • eliud_cornejo Duil3 Anidem (@eliud_cornejo) reported

    @CoalitionGears Hello, I had the following issue: I was playing ranked with a friend, but before start the round, the game disconnected me from the server. The problem is that my GP were decreased ( I was Onyx), this happened twice, and now i lost 3K GP. But my friend GP remains.

  • RayzorBlue153 Raymond Coe (@RayzorBlue153) reported

    @GearsofWar You would think after all the updates the Wakatu never returning in horde glitch would be fixed, sort it out or take it out of horde ffs #GEARS5

  • RealSgtBrian Real Sgt Brian (@RealSgtBrian) reported

    @GearsofWar What is going on with Gears lately? Every time I join a game I start lagging and can barely play. This all started after the patch update.

  • IAmBlackHearts @IAmBlackHearts (@IAmBlackHearts) reported

    @CoalitionGears I still haven’t received my phantom camos from watching all those matches please fix this! GT : BLACKHEAR7S

  • rasiel_aquino Rasiel Aquino (@rasiel_aquino) reported

    I’m retiring from still playing your ******’ #Gears5, your game is broken since the lauching, and you can’t fix it, @CoalitionGears Bad pairing, the game expulses the gamers from the matchmaking and so mAny errors. This is the worst game ever. I’m refuse to tolerate this ****

  • iglooman117 Tyler (@iglooman117) reported

    @GearsofWar played through nexus siege, and none of my medals updated after a complete run. This a known issue already?

  • Xanthicirs Video Games and Politics (@Xanthicirs) reported

    @SlNEMATIC666 @shiin0bii @GearsofWar That's for Escape. She needs a buff, yeah, but that's not one of her issues.

  • djwaters djwaters22 @diablo (@djwaters) reported

    @PezRadar Any issues with a 1st time mobile creator applying?

  • BeysBlades Ronald Witwicky (@BeysBlades) reported

    @RicherAdam @GearsofWar It’s because they figured out that arcade was causing server issues. So they’re taking it out for a bit until they can fix it.

  • Miller24Elijah MacNelious (@Miller24Elijah) reported

    @GearsofWar I’m annoyed my Xbox had a glitch and it says I don’t own this game 🗑

  • MrxLongshot Bongshot (@MrxLongshot) reported

    @CoalitionGears actually making a solid comeback with Drop 2 the only problem now is they are being real bad about how they present this content in trailers. Presentation is key if you cant prove its good whats gonna make someone redownload or come back to gears again?
