  HaloiOi (@Juicebox343GS) reported 9 minutes ago

  @HubPointless Also if there were ever a topic not spoken about enough, it's this exact issue here. Counter Strike, Overwatch, Valorant, Doom is basically Halo 3 customs with player speed at 150%! Sprint is a gimmick that's fun, but it was never Halo's core experience. Halo 3 was that in spades

  @PlayOverwatch I have a slight input lag on the Switch 2 version of Overwatch 2. Is it only me?

  @ceroeit Thank you! I lowkey think it's just in one of the art books so I'm just going to have to sit down with mine Weird issue with googling Overwatch Era Overwatch images is that. That's the. Name of the franchise. So it doesn't work

  @astrowaree @SlizzaCS @ThourCS2 Saying Id dont anything is kinda nonsense. Premier has million times more cheaters. Faceit can't ban all cheaters but cheating issue is significantly less Also we had id system in MM before. The phone number. Valve removed it to help cheaters. Just like they removed overwatch

  @BlizzardCS Can I talk to a human about hacking in overwatch two. If given the opportunity I will work actual work weeks to find and implement ways to help this problem for very reasonable rates.

  See the issue with wow currently is that it was originally designed to be tf2 but over time has become overwatch, and no matter what version of the game you try to launch the community only wants overwatch

  @Greenpig117 >overwatch players came over Bro we were there day 1😭😭😭 And ow players knew where problems might appear and were right. I want rivals to succeed long term but holy ****, not with this attitude

  @ryanscottborman @heatloss1986 @AlexLuck9 Problem with the drone AWACS is that lack of crew, and why we need to risk losing lives. I remember when Global Hawk Block 40 showed up in Afghan. They told everyone they could provide NRT overwatch to convoys/SOF. We at JSTARS were pissed because that was a lie.

  @ArkangelOverwat overwatch making me crash out? all is well, i play dbd and spin and circles

  Grok (@grok) reported 23 minutes ago

  The green cat character you mentioned seems inspired by Jetpack Cat, a canceled Overwatch hero concept. In Overwatch terms, Jetpack Cat was a whimsical idea for a cat in a jetpack, controlling it with its paws. It was scrapped for being too silly and for gameplay issues, like paws blocking the first-person view. While fans love the idea and push for its inclusion in Overwatch 2, developers have confirmed the next support hero isn’t Jetpack Cat. It might appear as a cosmetic item, like a skin or companion, but there’s no evidence it’s a playable hero. The game’s tone leans toward serious heroes, making its inclusion unlikely.

  Kung Fu Man (@KungFuMan316) reported 24 minutes ago

  @ThatOddGuyDave From what I gather the issue is Overwatch 2's structure doesn't allow it to be ported over as is, but they should still be able to simply remake it.

  @EmperorKermit @evolved117 most characters in Overwatch don't have sprint,just like most of them don't have any clamber-like abilities and it's irrelevant if it's part of the core or not,the real issue with it is that it has no actual purpose other than to copy what others are doing sprinting doesn't add

  @The_JBS I have no problem with the targeted strikes on regime leaders, nuclear scientists, and nuclear infrastructure. Providing intelligence and overwatch with planes and ships.

  @trabucooo1 @OverwatchNaeri Yeah that’s kiriko, and everyone agrees its an issue, but she is basically overwatch’s poster girl and also i thoight u didnt care about skins.. so why are u speaking so much on skins now if they add nothing to the game?

  X2 (@X2pinkcray) reported 30 minutes ago

  @SkywardPlate @ThelVanDamne @HerosDr34m Req packs which affected one gamemode only in the halo community yall blame the devs for people this **** in but cod was doing it and Overwatch and none of the fans from those games blame the game for it. It was literally industry standard and regardless halo 5 was live service.

  @genebbyy Heh now if they would just sneakily add my oc into overwatch I’ll fix everyone’s problems

• 
  gamja (@gamja2174) reported 32 minutes ago

  @Gracellynn6 @Vodible @MarvelRivals Agreed. Overwatch has some of these issues as well, but at least OW has taken a firm stance that it’s going to be a competitive game and Blizzard at least officially supports/acknowledges the Esports scene and gives it a stable/sustainable league/structure.

  lin ♡ yoongi (@93s97) reported 40 minutes ago

  you guys fight tooth and nail about this girl but the reality is there and we see the undertones don’t act tone deaf to avoid the conversation that’s there, is it like other games? no, but does overwatch have a problem with the way they do **** like this, YES.

  @EXCELSlOR_ Sounds stupid, but Lucio from Overwatch or Doomfist, there was a rumors way back about OW coming to smash, but after like some Hong Kong issue it soured the water

  @CY4N4R4 I don’t get the issue, you know how the game plays it’s Overwatch the same as it has for years. Map voting is coming everybody knows this why are people upset it’s not in the trailer if they know it’s coming.
