@BlizzardCS Playing some games seems to be lowering play stats in career profile for many players. For example, I've played Junker Queen at least 30 mins and several games, but says I played her once for 5 mins, and it's happening to stats from Overwatch 1 too. Please address the issue ASAP.

@OverwatchEU How do I appeal a ban. There is nowhere I can find the support ticket this game claims to have and IM PISSED my account shouldn’t be banned because of disconnects and overwatch 1 was more forgiving you suspended my account after one disconnect like Xfinity Wi-Fi isn’t crappy.

@OverwatchEU now fix the cosmetic economy in the game. because charging 20 bucks for overwatch 1 skins and making it take 8 months for a single skin if we sweat our ***** off aint the answer....

I can’t even tell if Overwatch itself is being laggy or if it’s my broken Xbox app.

@Bo_Hoogland I don’t know but I feel like there’s way too many walls and stuff right now. Overwatch had the same issue eventually.

I have had double the number of Overwatch 2 matches crash the game than I have completed. Lowest settings possible, guess my system can't run it like Overwatch.

@timmy77779 @Rami_Al06 @b0gur Hook is meant to punish people out of position, it’s in a pretty good spot rn considering how broken it was at the beginning of overwatch 1, just get an Ana, anti nade him then focus and you’ll pretty much win the fight. Ana is a great counter to hog imo because of that nade

@GoddessBlade231 The plot of overwatch is so interesting but the issue is they haven’t developed it beyond that in like 6 years, all of the animations and comics are just “overwatch was a thing, now it’s a thing again”

Overwatch gained a noteriety for the porn, instead of taking full advantage of it, the parent company, Blizzard, wants nothing to do with it despite OW2's many, MANY glaring problems. (seriously, even a transformers mobile game mentions kiss players! missed oppertunity)

@staycationtg Same, would be nice if Overwatch would fix the glitch where hero challenges disappeared though. I can't unlock any new heroes.

@BlizzardCS In Overwatch 2 there a few challenges that will not progress no matter what. They are "The Best Defense" (Deal/boost 125,000 damage) and "Hold the Line" (Mitigate 40,000 damage). I have been playing tank for about an hour. Is this a known issue or user issue?

@get_ratio @nalluni @OverwatchEU Quit using a "free game" as an excuse. A lot of us bought Overwatch one for multiple consoles and now we lose out on all that money because they shut that game down. Then they release this crap and I can't login for the first week.

@TheGhostOfHope Before they leave for break they need an overwatch/fortnite removal system in case something is too broken again. Just remove it until they are back in after holidays.
