  • 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.

  • OnionHolyKnight Onion Knight🍥 (@OnionHolyKnight) reported

    @GearsofWar Help @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears I have a problem in campaign mode when I put a weapon in the Skiff. After finishing a mission, my weapons that I saved disappear from the skiff, it does not keep the extra weapons I suppose that no one has reported this error.

    @TC_Kilo @CoalitionGears Help I have a problem in campaign mode when I put a weapon in the Skiff. After finishing a mission, my weapons that I saved disappear from the skiff, it does not keep the extra weapons I suppose that no one has reported this annoying error. 😣

  • Shura30_ shura30 (@Shura30_) reported

    @TC_Kilo @CoalitionGears You sure it's not some people being able to DDoS a particular server? The top player on the opposite team in that clip landed 100 elims while everyone else was barely able to move

  • 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

  • tripoke3 tripoke (@tripoke3) reported

    @xerogeara @vgreywolf @GearsofWar and you are probably someone who was frustrated not to pass bronze 3 before the new Tuning or you have a big mental problem not to admit that the game is really dead

  • 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?

  • lgriao Leandro Series X 🇧🇷 (@lgriao) reported

    @PsyduckWild @CoalitionGears I just need the models, the Blueprint side I can do without problem. I would love to see my maps running in the Unreal 4.

  • 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.

  • Arcanam8 Control Arcana (@Arcanam8) reported

    @EssJackson @PaulLivo @CoalitionGears No, he's not with the company anymore. I truly believed they were going in the right direction with how they handled their community and customers, but I'm appalled at how they have mistreated Paul, and simply banned him for speaking out about how he feels, with no rules broken.

  • 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.

  • SauterScoots 🚀 Sauters Photos 🚀 (@SauterScoots) reported

    Sort your ******* servers out everyone is lagging literally in every game @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar

  • Nightwing3650 Roger S (@Nightwing3650) reported

  • 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.

  • Rundan4 Rundan (@Rundan4) reported

    @TC_Kilo @CoalitionGears can’t run Gears 5 on Windows. Gives me error “untrusted system file” looks like something to do with Easy Anti Cheat doing a false positive. Lots of PC users are dealing with this. I can’t find a solution. Please help

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Tee_iZxMajor Taivon (@Tee_iZxMajor) reported

    @CoalitionGears why is ranked free for all not working?

  • surrealstrafez j (@surrealstrafez) reported

  • Kougat_VT Kougat (@Kougat_VT) reported

    @GearsofWar How annoying, I never re up because there was no incentive besides a dumbass desert cammo skin. Now y'all want to do this and I'm still a re-up 1.Not everyone likes horde, how bout you give something to the people that have put up with your stupid broken multiplayer for 3 years?

  • Rundan4 Rundan (@Rundan4) reported

    @TC_Kilo @CoalitionGears the problem persist. xgametime.dll being “untrusted” by EasyAntiCheat. Solutions are starting to not work. Can we get an official comment/fix for this. Trying to play Gears is becoming impossible. 4 days have past.
