  • DestroWod Destro WOD (@DestroWod) reported

    @GearsofWar why Gears 5 is broken now? Why i can't vote maps anymore 7/10 of times. Yes im on base X1 but this game was released BEFORE SX was a thing and this bug started a few months ago (like 4 months at most). Its just so frustrating for a 2v2 player. I want MID !!

  • BarDownBeef Beef🥩 (@BarDownBeef) reported

    @PezRadar I don't see a problem with that

  • ePenguinGames ePenguin (@ePenguinGames) reported

    Hey @PezRadar do you know how to fix this?

  • Lawwgic Jeffrey Owen (@Lawwgic) reported

    @CoalitionGears COALITION: Please do a reset on the Gears 5 Servers or at least a little maintenance. Pings are much higher now (was 40-60ms now its 80-130ms). Anyone not on a home server suffers! Theres also severe packet loss on central servers. PLEASE FIX. Thanks!

  • PaulLivo HvNz Livo (@PaulLivo) reported

    @ImHellerTTV @Danger_cutie4 @CoalitionGears Not my problem, i'm not the one who had a game collapse due to bad decisions and punishing people for trying to help lol

  • hendomedes Hendomedes (@hendomedes) reported

    @GearsofWar been getting several 'Ragani' errors tonight when trying to start Horde / Escape matches on Gears 5. But of an issue with servers or maybe on my end?

    @GearsofWar Please fix Gears of War Ultimate Edition for Windows 10 achievements please

  • Arcanam8 Control Arcana 🐀 (@Arcanam8) reported

    @RenownedZ3r0 @GearsofWar It isn't a claim, Cliff has talked about it countless times. If you're not smart enough to decipher themes from the game and you have missed the number of times Cliff talked about it on twitter that's a you problem. Any actual gears fan knows this lmao go be a nuisance elsewhere

  • ImHellerTTV Shane Heller (@ImHellerTTV) reported

    @PaulLivo @Danger_cutie4 @CoalitionGears I agree on that aspect. I just hate TC, because since like, what, March? It's been obvious they could give **** all less about the franchise (it was obvious before that, but they havent even commented once on the packetloss issue since the esports scene died). They don't care.

  • Avenge_CeeJay Avenge CeeJay (@Avenge_CeeJay) reported

    @GearsofWar @Community_Gears GoW3 Servers down

  • pete_morgan94 pete morgan (@pete_morgan94) reported

    @AliceGernimo1 @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar I also had an issue like that last week but i was able to recover my account because someone refered me to julia_codingdev on instagram who got my account for me within 30 minutes

  • Dutchyraider Jeffrey Groen (@Dutchyraider) reported from Amsterdam, Provincie Noord-Holland

    @PezRadar @AmericanAir Not a fan of American at all. Whenever there is ANY problem, its handled poorly, and terrible restitution (from my personal experience that is).

  • Ej_Scorpion Edgar Guerrero (@Ej_Scorpion) reported

    @GearsofWar @GearsofWar please, fix Gears UE for Windows achievements

  • dannycowherd Daniel Coward (@dannycowherd) reported

  • andycaomhanach Fear na Ríomhairí (@andycaomhanach) reported

    @RetroGamer_Mag Raided my local @Cex store for old Xbox 360 games. Original @GearsofWar trilogy for €1 each. Best €3 you could spend. Had to really after the Gears reference in the latest issue!

  • isabelury Isabelury (@isabelury) reported

    @PezRadar Hey Adam! Lil question, is this only inside US? I saw a link for cities on the rules link but is not working.

  • DestroWod Destro WOD (@DestroWod) reported

    First time in month on @GearsofWar 5 ... Games load fast. Allowed to vote. No synching player issue .... Wooooaw?? Same base X1. No idea why TONIGHT it worked great but it felt so good. Hope it stays that way in the futur !

  • Lawwgic Jeffrey Owen (@Lawwgic) reported

    @GearsofWar Please do a reset on the Gears 5 Servers or at least maintenance. Pings are much higher now (was 40-60 now its 80-130). You can test this by goin on an east server from a central location! Theres also severe packet loss on central servers. PLEASE FIX. Thanks!

  • MattyBoyPrime Matthew (@MattyBoyPrime) reported

    @GearsofWar #GearsmasSweepstakes. I'm so sorry for the spelling error.

  • muabgirk Muabgirk (@muabgirk) reported

    @PezRadar I’m sure you’re aware but the PR safe questions were very concerning. There are real hard questions about D4 out there that will challenge the dev team and I’m sure they wanna avoid that but it just makes it SEEM like you guys are avoiding the real problems with this release.

  • Ej_Scorpion Edgar Guerrero (@Ej_Scorpion) reported

    @GearsofWar @FallGuysGame Please fix Gears Ultimate Edition for Windows 10 achievements

  • TerryHB_ Terry (@TerryHB_) reported

    @Randymash @CoalitionGears Halo is having issues too. The problems seems to be MS servers themselves

  • BrandonProLive Brandon (@BrandonProLive) reported

    @PezRadar It says enter a valid email which I am and it won't work. Any fix?

  • lx999_L4 ルイス・アルフォンソ (@lx999_L4) reported

    Fix your servers @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears honestly, it’s hardly playable past 16ms ping… 200+ is a joke
