Your reputation has to be on green.

Yep. I have no clue how my rep is green considering all the griefing my friends and I did on Halo 3 back in the day.

My roommate just got his invite.

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

Lol so not in germany... what a joke

 

[IHaveIce]

Yep... kinda confirms that the remaster won't come aswell or what?

 

[Doctor West]

Got my code but I can't redeem it.

 

[catmario]

I don't think they'll not release remaster version on these regions. This restriction only applies on Beta for now. I think it is just rating issues.

blind fire is at the centre of screen instead of gun barrel
smoke gernade DOESNT stun like in gears 2/3, only visual effect
no mantle kick

 

[Grisby]

Registered. Now we play the waiting game.

Tweet from Jack Felling, Producer on the next Gears. Looks like XBL servers are having issues.

Isn't this bad for a 3rd person game? sounds wrong to me.

 

[Stacey]

Didnt get a msg,

signed up for the beta on gears website, activated email.

Didnt get a msg.

 

[mohsinkhan]

Still cant redeem.

Yea back to putting a dot at the centre of screen and blindfiring Longshot

 

[Einchy]

You can tell a legit GoW player if they had a dot on their screen for blindfiring.

 

[many places]

I really want my code, just so i know im ready to go as soon as the servers go live.

 

[Calm Killer]

Gears of War ‏@GearsofWar 3m3 minutes ago

We are aware that some Gears of War beta tokens are not redeeming properly. The Xbox Live team is working on a fix.

 

[RoKKeR]

Hell yes!

 

[RdN]

Yep. I have no clue how my rep is green considering all the griefing my friends and I did on Halo 3 back in the day.

Everybody started fresh on XBO.

 

[Altered Juice]

XBL Gold account "in good standing" What does that mean?

I'm ready to re-sub right now to play this...

xbl reputation. also if you play mcc and quit it will go down.

I hope they can fix it soon! I got all excited when I finally saw it redeem... and then nothing.

 

[SmackAttack]

Still waiting for my message, Xbox. Come on, baby.

 

[catmario]

Oh... I didn't know that. ;( On Korea and Japan, first GoW already released on Xbox 360. Well then, I don't know what will happening on GoW remaster in Germany for now.
I hope Germany gamer will have GoW:RE too.

 

[Storm Raider]

Would like a code in my PMs ☺️

 

[Liamc723]

Has anyone from the UK received a code?

I haven't and I'm wondering if they're rolling the codes based on regions.

 

[Scully Scully Scoo]

Isn't this bad for a 3rd person game? sounds wrong to me.

yeah i dont like it because people can put markers on their tv plus it is just weird, makes more sense for bullets to come from barrel

 

[Koojay]

microsoft

got anymore of them beta messages?

 

[Einchy]

Isn't this bad for a 3rd person game? sounds wrong to me.

The bullets coming from the gun made close range shotgun battles be really weird sometimes.

And it's Gears 1 so you're going to be having a TON of shotgun battles.

 

[Diablohead]

Shooting around corners becomes a ton easier with center screen shooting but it means up close shotgun battles depend on your camera aim not where your character is.

 

[jesu]

Yes, I got the message.
Like everyone else I can't redeem yet.

 

[RespectThySole]

So you need Gold for a code? I guess it's time to resub.

 

[Compsiox]

No code yet. -_-

 

[schlongdog]

So you need Gold for a code? I guess it's time to resub.

Good luck, I've been trying for over an hour. And I really don't want to apply on the Gears website until I'm back on Gold

 

[N7Commander95]

I havent recived a code yet

 

[nOoblet16]

Yep which is why I dislike it and you get shit situations where a person can dodge/slide and get behind you but you still manage to hit that person.

 

[ZROCOOL]

No message/code

 

[Woffls]

UK: Got my message but code won't redeem. Will keep trying, I guess. Not that bothered.

 

[StoopKid]

Sigh why not just make it available to download straight from the store instead of this code bs.

 

[Backfoggen]

Thank you USK

Nice. I hate this countries fucking censorship system.

 

[Eclectic Jabber Monkey]

Live must be getting pummeled, I can't even sign in to join the Beta:

" 401 There was a problem retrieving your Xbox Live account information."

 

[Brudinho]

Is there any chance that someone could get me a second code?
Won´t get one since I´m from Germany and Germany hates Gears

Why wouldn´t they make this available for everyone on the store?

 

[munroe]

Nope, nothing yet.

 

[DOG3NZAKA]

This

 

[NateDrake]

I'm not expecting a code to arrive today. The site says up to 24hrs, so maybe by tomorrow afternoon. Would love to be playing it right now. Hell, I'll stream it if I get access tonight.

 

[Shrennin]

xbl reputation. also if you play mcc and quit it will go down.

That's really stupid considering the only time I've ever quit a match early has been when my party has been split up when we should have been put into the game together (and, as a result, my team that my friend was supposed to be on was down one player already and he was in an entirely different game -- we had no option to quickly leave a match once we realized this since it put us straight in without warning of being split up). My rep is green, but I don't think any penalties like that should be given when it's the game's fault.

 

[LinkToTheFuture]

Everyone has to be patient the servers are getting slammed with traffic, people streaming stuff, looking up info, trying to redeem codes, possibly a bunch of gold re subs

 

[AndyMoogle]

I just redeemed my code.

 

[schlongdog]

I just managed to re-sub to XBL Gold after trying constantly for an hour, maybe you'll have more luck now!

 

[The Wraith]

I still haven't received a code but my account is in good standing. My buddy already received his code and he didn't need to sign up at the beta site. I already registered at the beta site.

 

[Onikaan]

It redeemed my code and nothing happened? Looking for the beta on the store. Nothing.

No idea what's going on.
