    @CoalitionGears How about you ******** fix this God damn game for a change. Pathetic balancing crap. You should be a shamed of yourself that after 15 years you can't get a multi-player game balanced correctly! Instead you just give advantage to each team a different round rofl. Wtf!!

  • TheDoomDealer Darren McCabe (@TheDoomDealer) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar What about the glitch that when u get downed and revived Ur weapon is invisible, REALLY annoying and REALLY needs fixed (using heroic venom skins if that helps)

  • Frank59791182 Frank (@Frank59791182) reported

    @GearsofWar This is bullshit, beside captain hoffman is glitch when he speaks its not hoffmans voice its marcus voice. Are you fixing that? Awful store coming from now till 2 of april. This operation sucks hard

  • generalraam85 joe yakoubian (@generalraam85) reported

    @CoalitionGears @TC_Kilo any plans to fix the masters gnasher skin? The emblem is in the wrong spot all the other weapons have it near the handle of the guns

  • Algorit96140265 Algorithm_Tf1 (@Algorit96140265) reported

    @hoopstar245 @TheMLTGR @CoalitionGears Terrible d-sync net code constant 99% from enemies who are being helped with lag compensation server issues where everyone in the lobby has 200+ pings screen tears and ported maps from gears 4 oh gears 5 launch was unplayable for the first 5 months with a ridiculous ranking systm

  • HenryEvarts4 Henry Evarts (@HenryEvarts4) reported

    @CoalitionGears I have no issues with the game

  • Eyeganism 𝔻𝕚𝕘𝟙𝕥𝕒𝕝 𝕎𝕚𝕫𝕒𝕣𝕕 (@Eyeganism) reported

    @CoalitionGears Who cares. It's a weak update. Why don't you fix the game or go back to the last tuning? You care too much about the store instead if the gameplay. Unless losing player base was the plan ... IDK.

  • reveles_osiel Osiel Reveles López (@reveles_osiel) reported

    @CoalitionGears @TC_Kilo I still have problems with improving my cards, I would love if you could help me solve it, it is frustrating not being able to pass a horde or escape with the ability that I like.

  • jota_elche Jota (@jota_elche) reported

    Getting dropped from ranked, now banned. Can you tell the devs to fix the game after almost 2 years? @TC_Kilo SO annoying how @CoalitionGears is forcing players to hate the game. Ridiculous is the word at this point. Nothing less. Gears rep has never been this low.

  • Cheflisakeefer ChefLisaKeefer (@Cheflisakeefer) reported

    @CoalitionGears It's been weeks and you've yet to address this issue. I've sent multiple reports and so far all you've done is tell me to reload the game and do a power down. My game isn't playable thanks to your update. Are you ever going to fix it?

  • Tracer14nc Tracer (@Tracer14nc) reported

    @CoalitionGears Fix the Gears 3 events. Seriously 3.0 is now unobtainable without them. We're paying for game pass so this needs to work

  • xcisionx X (@xcisionx) reported

    @CoalitionGears Always issues, never seen a studio, tweak, rebalance, delay servcies weekly as much as TC, @BillGates Please give the Gears of ear franchise to another studio, these guys are sitting around collecting checks acting like there busy 🤡

  • Cheflisakeefer ChefLisaKeefer (@Cheflisakeefer) reported

    @CoalitionGears I'd rather you fix the problem you caused with the feb 9th upgrade. I was at 25 reups before the upgrade now I'm frozen at 75 no prestige

  • thekidblues Ronnie Van B. (@thekidblues) reported

    @TheMLTGR @hoopstar245 @CoalitionGears Every multiplayer game has issues. Apex, Destiny, Fortnite...every new season we get to try the new mechanic out on fortnite for like 2 days before its removed for bugs and glitches..and its weeks before it comes back. And this is the Dev team that created Unreal engine.

  • DioBrando94 Dio (@DioBrando94) reported

    @wasntJake @TC_Kilo @CoalitionGears Gap between Xbox One fat vs high-end PC performance (dunno about XSS/X) (my xb1 vsync on feels to slow now). I don't care much about mnk or pad (still I think mnk have an advantage if mastered), way more about input lag and fps differences. Input lag Crossplay option incoming? :)

  • Cheflisakeefer ChefLisaKeefer (@Cheflisakeefer) reported

    @Payasomeme @GearsofWar @CoalitionGears I have the same issue. Generated tickets for it, the coalition does nothing.

  • hoopstar245 Kyle Hooper (@hoopstar245) reported

    @Algorit96140265 @TheMLTGR @CoalitionGears 1 year of constant failures? I can't say I've ever stopped playing the game due to issues with Gears 5. Could you point me to some of these terrible errors that ruined your ability to play the game?

  • OkNabre Kay Boogie (@OkNabre) reported

    @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar CAN YOU FIX GAME SOUND PLEASE

  • JoeyCollado2 Joseph (@JoeyCollado2) reported

    @TheMLTGR @CoalitionGears I agree and psa if you swiped up and gave this person a hard time cause it's their opinion... and personally I agree. There is ALWAYS an issue with the store, content ect. Maybe things being timely and effective doesn't bother you but it bothers a lot of people.

  • gustavosilvacu gustavo Silva Cutiño (@gustavosilvacu) reported

    @CoalitionGears Any news on that, @iamkovas account is still no getting xp or level up, nothing? Any fix soon?

  • Algorit96140265 Algorithm_Tf1 (@Algorit96140265) reported

    @hoopstar245 @TheMLTGR @CoalitionGears Bro it isn’t a indie studio it’s a AAA Microsoft exclusive and they can’t update the store without a crash I understand bugs and unexpected events happen but after 1 year of constant failures you gotta open your eyes to the bigger picture

  • DrMojoJojoXyz Xyz (@DrMojoJojoXyz) reported

    @CoalitionGears FIX YOUR ************* CHEAP *** BOSS FIGHT IN GEARS 5 ACT 2. THAT DUMBASS ************ IS UNBALANCED AND EVERY SINGLE TIME I DIE IS WHEN I CAN'T SEE HIM. ITS FUCKNG UNFAIR. FIX YOUR SHITTTT

  • Kindrroko Kindrroko 🍥 (@Kindrroko) reported

    @hoopstar245 @TheMLTGR @CoalitionGears Of course I’m free to do that, but why would I unfollow a series that I’ve loved since I was a kid when there’s hope they could fix the series? If you say you haven’t had any problems with the game you’re clearly just denying the problems because majority of them are surface lvl

  • DanjoskrA Crispicrisp (@DanjoskrA) reported

    @GearsFan00 @CoalitionGears @GearsofWar thats right.This studio is so rediculous.They cant update the weekly store without a issue.Every week tha same **** with this studio

  • Cheflisakeefer ChefLisaKeefer (@Cheflisakeefer) reported

    @CoalitionGears It would be great if you fixed the problems you caused with your Feb 9th update. I can't reup, gain stars or finish medals. I've sent tickets to you, you've done nothing!

  • Themadn1nja Joshua (@Themadn1nja) reported

    @CoalitionGears It's starting to show that the coalition can't make a proper game. This game has been out for about 2 year's now and it still has issue's to this day. I don't think i will be playing gear's 6 along with other's until they can fix the game.

  • Kindrroko Kindrroko 🍥 (@Kindrroko) reported

    @hoopstar245 @TheMLTGR @CoalitionGears There’s multiple issues if you’d care to look for them instead of glorifying a company that doesn’t care about its product or the player base

  • MasterCDLTG Bread (@MasterCDLTG) reported

    @hoopstar245 @TheMLTGR @CoalitionGears In fact, you are right, repairing a car is more difficult, these professional developers cannot do a simple update without errors, but according to you, we cannot be bothered by a professional not doing their job well.

  • preachersuki suki (@preachersuki) reported

    @CoalitionGears Bruh fix the respawns, everytime i joina game i cant spawn, the timer just resets itself

  • Seven_up_94 Seven (@Seven_up_94) reported
