Overwatch being like “console players can now crossplay with PC players” as if PS4 casuals haven’t had a KB&M problem for years lmao 💀

@true_jek_art Overwatch as the first FPS rep over the much more genre influential (or, as much as I hate the word, deserving) picks that are DOOM or Halo as well as (on the Activision side of things) turning Crash's chances to mush (at least on fighters pass volume 2) ...😐

Overwatch need to fix their damn servers already. My ping is at 50 (normally is 25-30) which would be fair enough, but it keeps spiking for no good reason and warping me around the place. Canceling my abilities and kicking me out of Ana's scope. It's not even my Wifi.

@SpawnWaveMedia This not the first time this happened. Why is everyone so shocked. Destiny 1 and 2, Overwatch, COD BO4 and several other games can ONLY be played online. Not seeing the issue outside of the price tag. Who really plays the campaign in BF games anyway? I played BF3's for the items.

@VibinWithViolet The most confusing part is that COD has way more pride stuff going on, so this isn't even an Activision problem—it's specific to the Overwatch team.

I feel like overwatch should just allow mnk to happen on console and put the people with it in on pc servers i think that might fix part of the mnk problem obviously not all of it but yk

Fav overwatch messes up stupidly late :( but perhaps an issue with this but perhaps an issue with me, Orisa.

@XboxSupport Having issues across XBL (spec. Knockout City, Destiny 2, and Overwatch) with connection issues. No packet loss (according to the built-in tool), but my latency fluctuates wildly over the course of multiplayer matches.

@bardockobamq OH NO YEAH I GET WHAT U MEAN HHDXHHD can totally see the left shift being small being an issue,,, it definitely makes it harder in some games so stuff like Overwatch I used to bind skills on Shift onto my mouse snipe button instead for that reason

@digitalspork @EvilToaster Overwatch released a rainbow player picture thingy but said nothing did nothing and its not even called Pride its called rainbow. They just like to ignore the social issues they claim to care so much about

@Porshapwr Paid $60 for Overwatch at launch, but I’ve never felt forced to spend a dime on loot boxes that you can easily get while playing for cosmetics that do not affect gameplay. That’s the model I wish developers would follow for games as a service

Well, in other news a friend of mine gave me a link for another Overwatch league to join. Problem is to participate as a player it seems like a 3.1k minimum SR requirement. Which is doable, the bigger problem is actually reaching that since ranked is just too casual and boring.

@PlayOverwatch I'm personally half and half on this, like I'm glad your bringing cross play to overwatch, but the pc players will be a problem to us on console, if your gonna do this, at least keep aim assist for console, or bring keyboard and mouse support for console

Great, looks like the latest update to Overwatch made it so after shooting ONCE, your control randomly jerks to the left. And no, it’s not my controller drifting. It only happened in OW, meaning that’s it’s a glitch the devs caused in the game.

Might just save my soul the trouble and look up the rest of the overwatch babes to see if other people made them lol Garcello doesn't have his hat on since he'll be wearing a new one for whatever class I give him haha

@Minefine_ overwatch is fundimentally a broken game because blizzard doesnt know if they want it to be competitive or casual. Also unless you play Main Tank in decently high elo voice chat is useless.

@DavidVonderhaar With the state Cold War ur game is still has glitches like the RC glitch where it would get stuck when u deploy it, strict SBMM, and more on top of BO3 and 4 ripping off Titanfall and Overwatch u have no right to trash talk maybe Cold War should take a look in a mirror

@KOR_Vanguard @PlayOverwatch Playing on PC doesn’t fix your positioning and strategy. Being good at aiming and being good at overwatch are overlapping but distinct skills.

@JUNKERKlNG Are you also having trouble getting in the game? Or is that just them working on Overwatch?

@ChrapavyM "Overwatch 1 is getting all the PvP updates that will be in OW2, too. You can literally go buy OW1 and play with friends who have OW2 without problems and even have all new maps and characters." Exactly. If it was a completely different engine they couldn't do this.

@BlizzardCS coming back to this to let you know it's unresolved. I am not having issues in other games, hell, even overwatch works fine so it's not a blizzard thing, idk why wow specifically doesnt work

@Mehrdad46520072 @_Sarenji_ @purrezii well duh lol it gives off the image that they care which can still at the end of the day be beneficial. it's ridiculous that other games can do this but overwatch. clearly shows that it is lagging behind.
