  • rwm_trains Ryan HK Mitchell (@rwm_trains) reported

    @GearsofWar there is an issue with the GoW5 download for GamePass after receiving updates mine kept freezing, deleted to reinstall but it won’t install fully! Skips to 35GB then stops

  • SqualoForte Mickey (@SqualoForte) reported

    @CoalitionGears what is haopening with the servers of this game?, matchmaking it's beyond awful and the service it's not for free

  • DarkBloodDemon5 DarkBlood Anime Demon (@DarkBloodDemon5) reported

    @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears can you fix the connection servers? cause when I came into FFA the game took long and then after playing FFA the game started to bad connection and can’t get to the next game or menu which it’s keeps doing that after that and I restart game a few times

  • Nynoen Nate (@Nynoen) reported

    @GearsofWar Are you ever going to fix your ******* crap matching making server, because 5 minutes to find a game with 8 people it's uncalled for. Please DO NOT develope anymore games and give this back to Epic. With them, it didn't take 15 minutes to match up in a ranked game...

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @BergmanZachary @GearsofWar I’ve already tweeted at them like 5 times to fix the servers and many other people have obviously complained as well so maybe you can understand my frustration with TC.

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @BergmanZachary @GearsofWar I’m convinced you’re just a troll honestly. I literally just proved you wrong and with all the evidence I just showed a reasonable person can presume many other people are also dealing with the server issues.

    FIX YOUR PATHETIC LAGGGGGY TRASH SERVERS YOU BUMS @CoalitionGears #Gears5

  • RRayitoo DClaw ⚡️ (@RRayitoo) reported

    @GearsofWar they need to fix their games, ever since they bought gears they haven't done anything but **** on the game.

  • ChefKirbDaGreat Chef Kirb VT (@ChefKirbDaGreat) reported

    @Lailwya @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears When there’s a problem I say no problem

  • MFG805 Angel (@MFG805) reported

    @GearsofWar @StormCollectUs Fix the servers.

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @GearsofWar I will never buy anything from The Coalition ever again. You guys refuse to fix the servers and ignore all the complaints.

  • ElReydereyesss Wamawei 🍥 (@ElReydereyesss) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix gears 5 for the steam deck. @Community_Gears

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @GearsofWar @AntiHeroZemm @Community_Gears Why will you guys not acknowledge that the servers are broken? This is beyond ridiculous. I have constant packet loss every single match. I know it’s 100% not my connection either. The least you could do is announce you’re looking in to it.

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @BergmanZachary @GearsofWar Yeah ******* for not wanting to lag every single time I play Gears 5 because TC won’t fix the servers.

  • ItsthaLevi itsthaLevi (@ItsthaLevi) reported

    @CoalitionGears @Community_Gears don't you hate people kicking for no reason just because you are Quote-on-Quote "Cheating and Hacking" in a Custom Lobby and having a Last Gen console by playing Gears 5. That's what me and @MaxyAmericawolf problems are having. 1/3

  • dleonxl Unreal (@dleonxl) reported

    @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears So you guys just aren’t going to fix the packet loss problem that’s been plaguing Gears 5 for about 4 days now????🧐🧐🧐

  • HelpusCoalition Help Us Coalition (@HelpusCoalition) reported

    @CoalitionGears please help us fix #gears5. Do you know crappy it is to sit here with a ping of 22 ms but packet loss so bad that you cant even get a kill. This is crazy. Im ranked 750 in the world guys. If you dont deliver a solid #gears6 im going to probably hang up the guns

  • sleepykideddie Eduardo saldivar (@sleepykideddie) reported

    @GearsofWar fix your servers holy ****.

  • SqualoForte Mickey (@SqualoForte) reported

    @GearsofWar what is haopening with the servers of this game?, matchmaking it's beyond awful and the service it's not for free

  • Groullock Groullock (@Groullock) reported

    @DiabloImmortal @PezRadar Why anyone would llay this game with all it's predatory micro transactions. It's sickening. And the base game is fine, dull but fine. Anyone who defends thier actions are just as part of the problem as they are.

  • ptatprat reese (@ptatprat) reported

    @CoalitionGears please fix your hit registration in gears 5 for the snipe. It’s absolute dog ****, when you shoot someone’s head it’s suppose to be a headshot, not a hit marker

  • AnTiVirus_4 AnTiVirus4 (@AnTiVirus_4) reported

    @HawKNLoaD @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar When DSL starts lagging.. lol

  • ShahUtkarsh10 Utkarsh Shah (@ShahUtkarsh10) reported

    @GearsofWar when are you going to resolve the issues I have submitted ages ago. I can not get to connect to any server playing versus mode online. My ticket reference number is # 69525

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @GearsofWar @StormCollectUs Meanwhile the servers are broken and you guys can’t even acknowledge this, much less actually fix them.

  • jcvillan2016 Jose Villanueva (@jcvillan2016) reported

    @GearsofWar Who can we talk to about the gears 5 server issues packet loss crazy ping issues and possibly future game improvements

  • Nomadcommon JCNomad (@Nomadcommon) reported

    @GearsofWar @StormCollectUs fix!!!! packet loss or allow server´s selection! texas is dead server.

  • TayPate98 Taylor (@TayPate98) reported

    @BergmanZachary @GearsofWar Please tell me what’s wrong with that? I’ve already proved you wrong that it’s not just me lagging so I’m not really getting your point.

  • youngkermi 💫🌟💕 ♿️catfish♿️💕🌟💫 (@youngkermi) reported

    @GearsofWar Alright? Fix the servers

  • HelpusCoalition Help Us Coalition (@HelpusCoalition) reported

    This is unbearable @CoalitionGears please help us fix #gears #please #weneedhelp

  • BergmanZachary Backary Zergman (@BergmanZachary) reported

    @TayPate98 @GearsofWar So telling them you're leaving is gonna make them maybe hopefully go "oh no, wait, let's fix it and directly respond and set a precedent for placating to people who threaten us with their business!" Like .. is that seriously the angle you're choosing to go? Just that desperate?
