Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ItszuBot Itszu Bot (@ItszuBot) reported

    overwatch, but you can actually see that no, it really is just an absurdist hell that we're all just conditioned to accept, and attempts to fix this (open office plans, etc) have just dug it deeper

  • Veilynne Veilynne (@Veilynne) reported

    Twitter algorithm making sure you see that an Overwatch streamer you don't care about hates playing the game. No wonder they tweet like a broken record about it when it's so favoured by this site.

  • vexusdylan Vex (@vexusdylan) reported

    @airbnderedacted I force-ran Overwatch and deleted like 1/3 of the buildings in my town and it still persisted, so I had to take the L and close the game. Note to self, do not leave the game paused overnight to avoid the 5 minute loading screen, because it will eventually lead to error code 12

  • Soxsify Soxsify (@Soxsify) reported

    I cannot wait till they nerf #ramattra he's so ******* broken. #Overwatch

  • Sentaiblade Dr.Daisy (@Sentaiblade) reported

    @WarnTV Hardcore Overwatch players, we get it, the game isn't in great shape right now but it's not a crime for people to still enjoy it, Attacking people that are having isn't going to fix this.

  • alanpico Alan (@alanpico) reported

    @thiccyITguy @jopankocho The fix is uninstalling valorant and playing overwatch 2 with me :)

  • Diana_Dragoness Diana the samurott (@Diana_Dragoness) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Please nerf roadhog the one shot meta is broken af please overwatch nerf the hell out of him he is so broken with kit ult please nerf

  • NGaming88 KLG NobleWarrior88#MediaKitsPartner (@NGaming88) reported

    @usaOW_ @JJ_Builds When you fight 4v5 because tanks just W key, supports die instantly etc it absolutely can be a teammate issue. Overwatch isn’t COD

  • Stryxus Stryxus (@Stryxus) reported

    4/4 @PlayOverwatch #Overwatch #Overwatch2 Blizzard REALLY need to get their act together... They have exacerbated every issue which Overwatch 1 had and removed many of the things which were working. I really miss the OW 1 QP games, people tried, didn't leave and so on...

  • N7KURRUPT N7KURRUPT (@N7KURRUPT) reported

    Competitive Overwatch is just dogshit right now. The SBMM is so broken right now #Overwatch2 #BROKEN

  • Hog1Trick Bill Atkinson (@Hog1Trick) reported

    @PANDDN @MikeAnthonyG @Kephrii 5v5 was more just running away from a problem instead of making any real attempt to correct the insane power creep first. We just needed to go back to 2017-2018 Overwatch and 5v5 is much worse than that era

  • MsCandyOps 𝙲𝚊𝚗𝚍𝚢🍬 (@MsCandyOps) reported

    I think my Overwatch is broken... I have won 14 games and my rank doesn't change. 😭

  • BeasterroXD Beasterro (@BeasterroXD) reported

    @winter_gzalaxy First outlook mail account, then login in bing search engine and do all task to earn points. Mostly what you do is just search and do small quizzes. For me it took me 2 weeks and half to earn the maximum points to redeem some multiple Overwatch 200 coins.

  • VoluntarismPls LysanderSpoonedher (@VoluntarismPls) reported

    It’s very obvious Blizzard is experimenting with lopsided game probabilities in Overwatch 2 and it’s extremely interesting to see how it’ll pan out in terms of engagement. It could make or break the game. Then again their matchmaking neural net could just be broken

  • HugeMooseCubed cubed (@HugeMooseCubed) reported

    Overwatch is the only game which asks you to stress yourself out and get harassed for literally no reward I thought Ow2 would fix that but nah lmao

  • YukiGnash Yuki 🔞 - Trigger Warning. (@YukiGnash) reported

    @PlayOverwatch you'll get this for free. Wanna fix your game? Unlock roles when there's a disconnect for more than 90 seconds. People might still lose, but at least they'll still have fun doing so. And they might try new strategies (and this one is for free) #Overwatch #Vtuber

  • Yxkoku Mizu (@Yxkoku) reported

    @ShaheerXAnsari overwatch will fix itself if u dont

  • nickkirby39 Nicholas Kirby (@nickkirby39) reported

    @battlenet please fix overwatch man you keep signing me out mid game and then ban me from playing because i cant rejoin

  • RY_DLC AyItsRy (@RY_DLC) reported

  • sithl0l sith (@sithl0l) reported

    @dakortega overwatch is worse, never seen lag that bad it's like the force pushes you back

  • CasierRoel roel (@CasierRoel) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent i recently bought the battlepass in een overwatch 2 it worked and all but now i have -480 credits how do i fix it?

  • Yxkoku Mizu (@Yxkoku) reported

    @ShaheerXAnsari overwatch will fix itself if u finish

  • karenborja karen ❥ ksimbuilds 🌷 (@karenborja) reported

    "Server closed due to an unexpected error." Wooooow. Really, Overwatch? Just when we're winning the game? Inaniyoooooo. 🙄🤬

  • jaymarvel Jay Marvel - 18+ ADULT Art 🔞 - Rob Lucci Stan (@jaymarvel) reported

    There must be more to Overwatch discourse on twitter than just getting outplayed by a character and calling them broken/OP lol.

  • Shiozuki_ Marlon (@Shiozuki_) reported

    @TheRealDJMart @bstategames It's like that because its basically a release everytime they wipe. Blizzard has had the same problems with overwatch or even wow. Apex Season starts are bad aswell. You just cant do anything about it bro.

  • Seymour74679092 Seymour (@Seymour74679092) reported

    @ItsSomjuu POV: ur an overwatch player who will never stop complaining about other characters being broken. I hate Overwatch and it’s community

  • hotpocketpapiii Roy (@hotpocketpapiii) reported

    @Bugzvii There was plenty of content in the beginning …when the game was playable for almost every match, the issue is that this **** feel way the hell off so there no point in making content for a game that not getting an real buzz vs overwatch or SSB.

  • ChasersFrame FrameChasers (@ChasersFrame) reported

    @TGDefinition This is a COD bro problem, and also why they won’t touch games like apex or overwatch eventhough they are far far superior games. But take 10x more effort to learn. Youl often hear terms like “boots on the ground” as denial terms

  • PokeCalDen Cal ❄️ (@PokeCalDen) reported

    @LifeatBlizzard hi. I’m in an overwatch ranked game and my game has frozen. If I have to dashboard my Xbox I’m going to be banned from comp and it’ll count as a loss. Is there a way you can sort this issue out?

  • SexyFantasyGals SexyGirlsOfFantasy (@SexyFantasyGals) reported

    @ExcelInAFlash //i get like that with overwatch sometimes but after a small moment I just sit there. Broken, defeated and accept loss is going to happen //even though I outhealed the other healer by 5k, i accept the loss and then wonder what the bleach tastes like
