    @Evilman520 @dumbreplies14 @PlayOverwatch It's an inconsistent approach that isn't faithful to the design. Overwatch has no problem with other characters displaying their goods plenty. If they were at least consistent with it, then it wouldn't be an issue. But double standards are annoying.

    Overwatch, fix you game. No reason I should be kicked form the game during a comp match.

    @FrankieIpp @LinusTech Lol. Well there's your first problem, it's CoD. Nah. Today alone I had to leave my PC running to keep up with updates for Overwatch 2 and Halo, and Halo was only 5.5GBs done of 15, with five estimated hours to go when I stopped by the house to check on it. Gotta love it.

    @NyanSox Im sorry but this is literally a skill issue. Overwatch is literally just shooting at shields for MINUTES until ppl do ult combos unless someone makes a mistake. If Valorant is just holding a corner then u playing it wrong

    @EliLikesRice I completely agree and sadly I am apart of that problem. the amount of money fortnite overwatch and apex have drained me of is insane

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN can you please do something about ashe in overwatch? For months me and others have said she's bugged on PS5 yet nothing has been done to fix it SHE IS LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE 😡

    Just got told I suck at overwatch because someone couldn't use their ultimate. Buddy I think you're the problem 😵‍💫

    Overwatch has this exact same problem but at least they dont tie fake hype to it like Val does. Compared to R6, Valorants cosmetics are the biggest and shameless cash grab of any game I have ever played. R6 cosmetics are almost all purchasablethrough in game currency

  • Ayyo_Danny
    Danny Echeverria (@Ayyo_Danny) reported

    @SeaGrammys Lmfaoooo this is great. Obviously I throw too but now you see why we get so angry at valorant and overwatch. Buy me the game and I’ll play. But in all honesty dude… sounds like a skill issue

  • MetalheadBabee
    Ashley (@MetalheadBabee) reported

    @ShrktaiX @Rabbitlnbound Who am I? Someone who plays Overwatch, nothing more. I was just asking who she was because I genuinely didn’t know. I don’t know how that’s rude, but if that’s rude, then you must have some serious social issues. Read the room babe.

    @theoutc74017605 @FallGuysGame i give credit where it's due but the problem is that people have a tendency to make nothing but bad decisions. no game is ever safe from it, but some take it worse than others and take varying amounts of time to learn from their mistakes (if ever). case in point: overwatch

    My SO's friend ordered art and came over to hang out with him once. I had finished most of it before he did, and was playing Overwatch when he was over. He had the audacity to try and ***** me out for not working. (SO had none of that, btw)

    Overwatch continues to get worse and worse. Apparently there is a new patch out today that claims the problems are solved. yet it does absolutely nothing to solve this crap games problem. you've ruined a masterpiece Blizzard. what have you become.

    why are ppl hyped over kiriko IN OVERWATCH a game that downgraded from the 1st so much so they had to shut down the servers from the first game to FORCE you to play the ****** version ROFL anyone who gives them money in ow2 you are the problem in the gaming industry

    @BlizzardCS I bought a new gaming PC and downloaded Overwatch, however.. I've been getting all sorts of terrible lag spikes/lag in general. I am connected to Ethernet Cable & have okay WiFi (Haven't had this bad of lag on my previous PC) What could be my issue?

    I'm really happy that overwatch doesn't crash anymore for me. That means I can play it more!

    overwatch adding the rewards from the bp progress bar thingy after every match is cool, feels more rewarding in a way. also the challenges for this event are decent. honestly really feels like the devs are trying to fix the reputation of this game which is cool

    i cant believe i’m making this but i would like to apologise to mallo and his TV. I was trying to say to fix his tv so we can play overwatch but it came out differently. I wasn’t aware of how sensitive he is about his TV and I since apologise, it was a silly move.

  • EastyBug
    easty ♡ (@EastyBug) reported

    I wonder if the overwatch devs know that the mystery heroes role caps don't work on first spawn and very often we have 4 of one role on a team ALSO that there's a glitch to see enemy comps before round starts for a split second (@OhReallyJared think youre the guy to tell)

    @PlayOverwatch When you fix Overwatch Coins!!?? Still don’t get it from the battle pass!!
