    @m1ssberyl Certain people get... I guess extentions? on when they can serve, for example a lot of Overwatch pros go at different ages just because before a bunch of them were here in the states, then some retired to do their mandatory service.

  • JunkPlat101 👾 (@JunkPlat101) reported

    @BlizzardCS I shouldn’t be penalized for a 208 error code when I can get a error code close app login to apex drop in come back to Overwatch and get ANOTHER 208 so how is it my internet when it’s the same internet since OW1??

  • edmonalbasrawe Admonito (@edmonalbasrawe) reported

    Overwatch seriously need to fix their matchmaking and servers I went from masters 2 to masters 4 as support cause either 1- someone dc and cant comeback 2- I have a plat tank and gold support and they are lost asf. I’m enjoying the game but this is ruining the experience.

  • seekingsecrets_ Persephone Queen Of the Underworld (@seekingsecrets_) reported

    Only took the internet an hour to fix itself... Shall return to overwatch

  • BrendanLorLowry Brendan Lowry 💙💛 (@BrendanLorLowry) reported

    @edenianscar @Lysder_Wolf @Fitzyhere Both are a problem, if I had it my way she wouldn’t have been added at all because she’s annoying asf and goes against what makes Overwatch fun. But right now, her low risk high reward design is incredibly unbalanced. Her value is completely free, with little to no counterplay.

  • Cinnaomatic Cinna (@Cinnaomatic) reported

    @PlayOverwatch give me my boyfriend back all he’s been doing is playing overwatch instead of giving me attention and i can no longer have this shut ur servers down NEOOW

  • xB1ack0pp5x xB1ack0pp5x (@xB1ack0pp5x) reported

    Also, didn't happen all day while playing overwatch 2 or while playing Destiny 2, but then did crash while I'm AFK on Destiny 2 without anything going on.

  • decidedash_ DecidedAsh 💜 (@decidedash_) reported

    I love Overwatch 2, but WHY do I de-rank after winning 7 games? What's the incentive to play competitive games and grind for 7 wins without knowing for sure if it'll benefit or harm your rank?? That makes absolutely no sense. @PlayOverwatch please fix this for next season.

  • ItsMeTrout Trout (@ItsMeTrout) reported

    @AlexanderWhos Problem with overwatch is the skills very so so much so some hero’s are busted in low elo and terrible in high elo or the reverse so it’s hard to balance

  • Jesus36197904 Jesus (@Jesus36197904) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Instead of worrying about adding new characters to comp fix the ranking. Just played 9 games won 7 of them and I stayed at the same rank. New to overwatch but I’m pretty sure that’s not supposed to happen.

  • MikeyxMayhem MxMayhem (@MikeyxMayhem) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent I checked out #Overwatch_2 and I gotta say... This **** suck. ****** super sucks. This is Overwatch 1 with more steps. Where's the PVE. I don't care about this live service BuLlShIt

  • MiraOkami Mira Okami 💖 EN Vtuber (@MiraOkami) reported

    @GuykatsuFriends yeah the real issue is that this is not actually OW2 it is Overwatch patch 1.1. So they couldn't actually make people pay full price for it, so instead they made it f2p and used it as an excuse to price raise everything and maaaaybe rope in the last 3 people who'd never played it

  • RayanBounab1 Rayan “Rain” Bounab ✨∞✨ (@RayanBounab1) reported

    @vgdunkey Well the issue seems to be that you’re playing Overwatch 2. Just play a better game 4head

  • Fam_Slora FamSlora (@Fam_Slora) reported

    I’ve never been more addicted to anything than I am to overwatch rn like I have a problem with this game

  • StephanieAlona stephani alona (@StephanieAlona) reported

    Why is overwatch 2 cross play not working Omg

  • NirvanaLithium2 Nirvana (@NirvanaLithium2) reported

    @tearyboi @jassem73 @XboxP3 You can't be serious...pfff PlayStation doesn't deserve any courtesy after the circus they have been doing, I hope Xbox just closes the deal and removes everything from the PlayStation. Bye Crash Bandicoot, byee Diablo, bye COD, bye Overwatch, just take it all like you deserve

  • tylerrozwell13 Ty (@tylerrozwell13) reported

    GOD Ragnorocks Atreus actor voice changing caused issue? Overwatch 2 Tracer skin being given away by McDonald's? WB demands PC requirements for Gotham Knights? Microsoft working on a mobile store front to rical Apple & Google? While at least theyre doing it for the right reasons.

  • rickyohnek Ricky (@rickyohnek) reported

    Didn't think overwatch 2 would be worse than any other game when it comes to ranked and being disconnected. I tried several times to get back into a match after the game disconnected me with the usual "server error" and now I'm banned for 13 minutes, because of their issues :)

  • ivpxsblog vanya 🤍💙🤍 (@ivpxsblog) reported

    @jnmoreno @ClaroBrasil Yes, the same is for me. Trying to play Overwatch but internet is either not working at all or works but with very huge delay. Also live in Campinas

  • DJDezignz DJ (@DJDezignz) reported

    Just uninstalled Overwatch 2 off my PC. I’m done with that game. Fix your ******* damage classes JESUS. I just got my *** whooped by a entire squad of them. You were right @BlueShadBrandon this game did fall off. 😔

  • Erik80117113 Erik (@Erik80117113) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent how about you fix the bug where in game in overwatch 2 if you click the left thumbstick it just throws you into text chat, shits nonsense

  • uglyspeckles *** ketamine (@uglyspeckles) reported

    @lunarIover @lielocked @pkmnmoon the unit is more covered in the actual game and I was talking about how much u see it u barely see the fe units outside of chibi model and headshots meanwhile in overwatch ur gonna see broken spine tight clothes characters against your will regardless

  • thisisasmu ASMU (@thisisasmu) reported

    Anyone here that plays overwatch 2 had any issues with screen tearing? Didn’t have this problem on ow1 and I’ve adjusted my fps to match my monitors refresh rate and turned on v sync already

  • SC21012022 S C (@SC21012022) reported

    @bowieTCG @nuevomeme Agree on the gameplay, ow1 was dated as ****, but it held its place, no other game has really come close as much as overwatch has, that’s why this launch has been hard, gameplay is phenomenally better but the rank and MMR system is just broken. If it isn’t broken, leave it be!

  • curtisj38392384 REVENGE.RS (@curtisj38392384) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent can you guys fix the problem with my overwatch 2 graphics resetting? It doesnt matter WHAT i do to try and fix it, i just keep getting reset to 60 ****** FPS, AND its not just overwatch 2, i have the same issue on warzone AND in the mw2 beta

  • dciortex Dciortex (@dciortex) reported

    I want to play Overwatch so bad, but my phone is broken... :,)

  • HayHoshi 🌽Hoshi Kusa🌽EnVtuber🌽 (@HayHoshi) reported

    @sonoffuhbish @WarnTV Then why do I have this problem with just Overwatch, I'm able to load into anything else just fine but when it comes to Overwatch it stalls

  • TheKRUSHER727 jake (@TheKRUSHER727) reported

    all messed up resulting in high ping. When i VPN to Singapore i get 70ms again so I know it's not my ISP routing all the traffic to singapore poorly, it's only the Overwatch server. This has been an issue for a couple years now and it's about time something is done about it (2/3)

  • mynameisdarien King Gnomus🇵🇷🇳🇱❁ (@mynameisdarien) reported

    @XboxSupport are you guys connected to blizzard support at all I have an overwatch problem but they are so backed up that the page is crashing and I know Xbox bought blizzard so I thought maybe you guys are

  • ProjectZidawn Zidawn (#LocalizeDragonQuestX) (@ProjectZidawn) reported

    @KAJOR_ I'll give a **** about aim assist in Overwatch when it's in ranked. Until then it's not really a problem.
