    @CoalitionGears #gears5 why can't you guys fix this standby problem? Whenever I shutdown my Xbox into standby the game never is able to connect to the online services afterwards. It can't be that hard to fix that can it??

  • DazTrash Director Daz 🦇 (@DazTrash) reported

    @CoalitionGears @TC_Shauny Just a heads up. Was experiencing some major server issues in Arcade during a test stream this morning. From about 20 minutes ago until right before I composed this tweet. Had 3 maps crash and all players had to quit out each time

  • DeanoLFC92 Deano YO (@DeanoLFC92) reported

    @CoalitionGears I recently purchased chrome steel Baird, can’t select the character but have been charged for him lol?? And when I purchased it gave me an error message!!

  • RobArctic Rob | Arctic (@RobArctic) reported

    Fix the Bunny Hunt tuning please. Its still the tuning from the beta playlist from back in October where the blindfire has 100% accuracy when standing still. Shauny did a hotfix but it didn't fix it. Its still the same tuning. Would appreciate any help @tc_sera @CoalitionGears

  • jmelia123 jmelia123 (@jmelia123) reported

    @GearsofWar Any word on when we can expect captain hoffman voice line fix?

  • Shane_So_Bad Shane Heller (@Shane_So_Bad) reported

    I just love losing 1900 GP for a game crash. @CoalitionGears

  • hoopstar245 Kyle Hooper (@hoopstar245) reported

    @okjayse @GearsofWar I'm just going to copy paste this: a small live service team works on Gears 5, the rest of the team is working on 6. You aren't going to see a ton of content.

  • NJCoda NJcoda⚡☄⚡ (@NJCoda) reported

    @CoalitionGears do you think maybe someone can reach out to me to fix my issues?? 3 months almost and not even a response!!!!!

  • mariomasv Mario A. Saavedra (@mariomasv) reported

    @GearsofWar are you ever going to fix the stats? I made 2 accounts and I got none of them correct.

  • Tracer14nc Tracer (@Tracer14nc) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix the Gears 3 events. No one can obtain Seriously 3.0 without it. We are paying for this with our gamepass subscription. It needs to work

  • mikeee77 mikeee7 (@mikeee77) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar Fix ur ranked lobbies too. Almost every other ranked ffa I get in everyone’s ping is over 100 except maybe two people

  • Jaydeny12ig Jay (@Jaydeny12ig) reported

    @GearsofWar fix servers please :(

  • AmericanBadBoii Young Trill (@AmericanBadBoii) reported

    @hoopstar245 @BuggaDmr @GearsofWar Maps that are from old pervious gears franchise should be FREE.... new maps that are new I will pay and have no problem. Now character it's like Jesus at least be creative and character from previous and story mode should be FREE.... there's no passion to create new...

  • Atherssa 𝘈𝘭𝘺 。 (@Atherssa) reported

    @RillyDj @CoalitionGears @TC_Shauny I actually don’t think it’s lag, pretty sure there’s a way to do it

  • Killswitch7776 Killswitch 🇵🇹 (@Killswitch7776) reported

    @hoopstar245 @GearsofI @GearsofWar /2 tc doesn’t even listens to the community, we’ve seen a lot of problems in-game, cheaters and a lack of communication, this isn’t their first time with gears and yet they still **** up, I get it it’s hard working home but cmon it’s not even the third time

  • marothsn Maroth S.N (@marothsn) reported

    @GearsofWar Fix the execution mode in private

  • PaulieW80946133 Paulie Walnuts (@PaulieW80946133) reported

    @Foo0p @GearsofWar Yeah I feel its a gears problem with variable refresh rate on the game slows down and becomes choppy pressing start fixes it but comes back a minute later, I've tested other games like hitman 3, Warhammer and other enhanced games and they seem fine just gears doing it.

  • saruruman Jeremey (@saruruman) reported

    @GearsofWar Its like you guys arent even trying to do anything about the real issues.

  • PaulieW80946133 Paulie Walnuts (@PaulieW80946133) reported

    @GearsofWar Anyone else having stutters/choppy gameplay on series x? Seems like only gears has a problem.

  • STORMBLADE7509 STORMBLADE (@STORMBLADE7509) reported

    Is @GearsofWar servers down or something...I can't seem to get in a game.

  • Booya8989 Booya89 (@Booya8989) reported

    @lilithpetitetv It's fun as hell. Destiny/GearsofWar style gameplay that encourages you to be aggressive. However, their servers are terrible for the moment. You might have trouble logging in or you will be in game and get disconnect. Hopefully, they will have it fix next week. I will say wait

  • hoopstar245 Kyle Hooper (@hoopstar245) reported

    @Killswitch7776 @GearsofI @GearsofWar It's literally free. I don't get it, what do you want? Do you think the small live service team is going to deliver 10 maps and 20 skins for an update?

  • RillyDj Ghost RILLY ♉️👻 (@RillyDj) reported
