@CHRONODISA @ABlackJackal — Eggman himself was not the sole problem in this scenario. If the Overwatch `` 𝙃𝙚𝙧𝙤 `` wanted to get any real work done, she would need to fight her way past him and his mechanical monstrosity first. Large mechanical palms lashed out in the Doctor's growing annoyance. —

@Carter_OW An MMR reset won’t fix that without fundamental changes to the ranking system, which to be honest is bloody complex for a game as team-based as overwatch. I’m not convinced that blizz can adequately fix the system to not have it just go back to **** immediately

i genuinely don’t understand why crossplay has aim assist turned off for overwatch. i understand balancing issues but to completely disable it? at a disadvantage everytime and you have to use a no aim hero in order to actually do something. lol

the problem I have every day is finding what to do, there are some times when there is no videogame to play Gina, but now you can play Overwatch 2, even though some people say it will be bad, better than nothing?,

@SSimon_OW @OverwatchCaval Widow will forever remain the most fundamental problem of Overwatch. Idk if you saw her ultra jump, but lets just say Pharah looked like an ant compared to her height she could get every 2 sec. Mercy's simple counter won't be a counter anymore if the implement the free GA.

MMR Reset for Overwatch 2: It is easier to fix the problems with SR across a new ranking system then it is to try and assuage the massive number of new (novel) players OW2 needs to pay for the blistering content pace Blizzard has set. Resetting MMR would cost them new players-

@BlizzardCS All my friends and I are having an issue with latency now on Overwatch at 65-70, it use to be 30-35 before. We are from NYC and we all have separate Verizon Fios services, is there an issue at blizzard with the East coast server or is it my ISP?

A few years ago LOL was virtually unplayable due to the amount of bots and it took ages to fix so I wonder if overwatch 2 will have the same issue

@Metro_OW Valorant and leage do a soft reset you will normally place 1-3 ranks lower not start anew every season just like in Overwatch the problem is that there is no Dekay im Overwatch being able to get 3.9 instantly if you were GM 3 years ago is just absured.

@Blizzard_Ent PLEASE FIX COMPETITIVE IN OVERWATCH 2! When I say fix it what I mean is please add a factor to the algorithm which takes into account when a player genuinely just loses connection to a game rather than just leaving it.

Making the switch from Console to PC next month for overwatch, and possibly apex if I can gain back some of that passion. Only problem is I don’t know much about computers. Anyone willing to help a brother out with getting the right setup?

-"The problem is that Overwatch doesn't have enough FPS elements and the crowd control and Blabla" Maybe the problem is that you should have been playing COD or Apex Legends and leave OW be. Maybe OW is not for you. It's already ruined pre-2. Then people will abandon it.

The biggest problem with wanting to make Overwatch content right now is it has to be Overwatch 1 content. Maybe I just wait.

I think it's ****** that Overwatch 2 development have had to try and release this game on what is probably an aggressive schedule around A LOT of reportage about Activision-Blizzard being continuously horrible but it's not a cover up, and it's not an emergency PR fix

@MeteosLoL League equates to punishing words and not actions. No programmed AI can look at a game a determine if someone is actually griefing. The only way for league to fix this is to have something similar to CS:GO overwatch. Where humans look at the games and determines what is happening

@CallofDuty Nice . Only 40$ to play with them for only 4 months ... you guys have a big mental issue here ... well no buying and no mw2 either . Every games have transfers even overwatch and apex and all so idk why we should bother with a future dying game when mw3 and wz3 will be out .

@MaxKriegerVG Well it is pretty clear overwatch 2 isn't really a new game but just a big patch for overwatch 1 that they are calling a new game to distract from other problems

@Saltiee2 You misunderstand. Overwatch has been in a broken unmaintained state for years. This means the ladder, as a system, has not been functioning as it should be. When you afk 3 years, ladder suffers. When ladder is unmaintained as it has been, undeserving ratings happen.
