@BlizzardCS Latest patch on overwatch broke the game. I can't join any game mode, it says "error try again", not even the training mode. I'm on Xbox series X.

so who else is just getting constant "error starting game, try again" for Overwatch 2? OR if you do get in a game, your ping is astronomically higher than usual. I average 32ms ping on NA-West, and I'm getting 180-200ms

A week after the game launch, when you think that Blizzard managed to finally fix their servers, they go and surprise us by breaking them again the next day. @PlayOverwatch #overwatch

@PlayOverwatch This overwatch 2 beta has been really fun and all, but surely when the game launches and I queue for a match it won’t say ERROR STARTING GAME and it won’t be riddled with 100s of bugs and break even further every time they fix one of them

All the recent news I read about Overwatch 2 and whatever new shenanigans Blizzard is up to and I don’t see much praise for their ‘sequel’ game. Time to pack it in, it’s not gonna fix anything.

This overwatch 2 beta has been really fun and all, but surely when the game launches there won’t be an ERROR STARTING GAME every time I queue for a match and surely I’ll receive my season 36 rewards and not have golds in grandmaster games
