    If overwatch doesn’t fix their matchmaking and rank system, I genuinely quit. Gold players in my GM games is irritating. At least let me stack in GM if you’re gonna give me **** randoms @PlayOverwatch

  • TallOak69 Surrey36 (@TallOak69) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent why do we receive ban on overwatch because of blizz server issues. Hour long ban because your server lagged out twice. Completely failed to get into game. Back to back.

  • eunwolsran ☕️ (@eunwolsran) reported

    there’s no way me disconnecting almost every 4 games on overwatch is a me problem cuz what ********

  • GetQuakedOn GetQuakedOn (@GetQuakedOn) reported

    overwatch has a serious audio bug problem. abilities and ults sometimes give off no audio at all (teammates / enemies) but when you go into replay you can hear it just fine. it's been an issue for many years now.

  • JerkPup Pup Jerk (@JerkPup) reported

    @Forgewalfhammer and of course faith in the company as a whole is a problem. HOTS flopped, you never hear about the card game thing anymore, Overwatch is only descending further and further into darkness and Immortal made them look like skinflint dickholes

  • itsyangOW Yang (@itsyangOW) reported

    Out of the 15 games I’ve played of overwatch within the past 3 days, there is at least 2-3 plat/diamond players in every single one of my lobbies and i’m gm4. Blizzard I beg you please fix your game.

  • miguel_____14 Miguel Rodriguez (@miguel_____14) reported

  • aaron_mann21 Aaron “🔥The🐉” Mann (@aaron_mann21) reported

    The Overwatch competitive ranking system is terrible. What is @PlayOverwatch going to do to fix this? If I get gold last season, how are you going to put me at Silver 5 to start season 3?

  • capitanotwt liam 🔎🤖 (@capitanotwt) reported

    I think I have problems. First I was able to ID Reaper overwatch by his waist and now I did it with Ghost and his ***

  • fantasy_ow_ 👑 (@fantasy_ow_) reported

    @SingtelSupport Greetings I am currently experiencing multiple disconnections consistently on overwatch may I know what is the problem or how to fix this problem?

  • zzhonglis_ nami 🍆 (@zzhonglis_) reported

    never really know how to react when people tell me “you’re my type” ??? I play overwatch, cosplay genshin characters, have red in my hair, english isn’t my first language and I will intake high levels of caffeine completely disregarding that I have a heart problem

  • martini_new Martini (@martini_new) reported

    Hey @OhReallyJared when are you going to fix the career profile not updating on Overwatch 2 ?? My stats and playtime from ow 1 have still not been recovered

  • OllieGF_ Rain (@OllieGF_) reported

    @Awesomeandrew30 @niko1f Think the bigger issue is twitch has always had some weird policies about streaming with others or aren’t on twitch , not sure if it still issue but during overwatch 1 times you could receive suspension from twitch for streaming with someone also streaming on YouTube

  • SpinsRock SpinsRock 🇺🇦 (@SpinsRock) reported

    @BlizzardCS Almost every overwatch 1 hero has a skin missing from the hero gallery. Toybot for zen, deadlock for cass, conductor for Rien etc. I believe it's because they're also being sold in the shop but they're unavailable to be bought with the ow1 credits. Please fix this.

  • screwyoumew jb (@screwyoumew) reported

    @ThyColds @nosiuls damn G, fix that **** and we can run it up. i dont really play val anymore, I just be on rust and overwatch now

  • _Extol_ 🍁Extol🍁 (@_Extol_) reported

    @BlizzardCS My Overwatch 2 career profile has been showing the wrong stats since season 1. It also doesn’t update some stats. I’ve lost hundreds of hours of information. Please help, there has been no response to this issue since it was first addressed. It’s very discouraging.

  • ApexLisa33 Lisa (@ApexLisa33) reported

    @PlayOverwatch BRO PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME HOW I'M GOLD 5 AND THEN BEFORE THE 5 MATCH WINS OR 15 LOSSES WHICH I DIDNT HAVE I'M SUDDENLY SILVER 5 AND GET RANKED UP TO SILVER 3 ???? YOUR ******* GAME IS BROKEN #Overwatch

  • thetkennedy Tifa • ティファ (@thetkennedy) reported

    had an overwatch 2 game today where we were so close to getting the payload to point and everyone got the message "server closed due to unexpected error". That was going to be our win, we had so much time left! 😭😭😭

  • ReshiRed_ ℛ𝒆𝓼𝓱𝓲ℛ𝒆𝓭🌺 (@ReshiRed_) reported
