  • FatSumo11 Érucyrian (@FatSumo11) reported

    I know none yall play Apex but I just need to rant cuz I'm just dumbfounded by some of the headasses I've read in comments today. It's like if Overwatch was broken for 10+ seasons and all they had to show for it was $600 in paywall+RECYCLED content within a 2 month window

  • venusnhobgood venus (@venusnhobgood) reported

    yo @battlenet y’all should really fix overwatch where your friends can see your full legal name, emphasis on legal name. i put my legal name on my account for payment/verification reasons so knowing my friends see my deadname when joining a lobby isn’t fun.

  • r5cerlol r5cer (@r5cerlol) reported

    @OwRyval @CDHuntersFacts Its not worth it to do that just for Overwatch. This Game has the same problems like OW1. This is just the next chapter of the dying progress

  • Pierrite94 Pierrite (@Pierrite94) reported

    @BarackObama FIX MY OVERWATCH PLEASE

  • pipzt3r Alex is a fan of the Eagles🏈 (@pipzt3r) reported

    lol and that's not even to mention their disastrous launch of Overwatch 2 that cute skins locked behind paywalls can't fix

  • melikemeatball hails (@melikemeatball) reported

    Why did I just have to solve a million dice problems to sign into overwatch

  • TravisJacksonnn Travis Jackson (@TravisJacksonnn) reported

    @SamitoFPS I’ve followed Overwatch fairly close since released. Sad the game is a shell of its former self. Match making is terrible. The skins stuff is a mess, but that doesn’t matter as much. The gameplay suffering is the BIGGEST problem.

  • kryics Kryics (@kryics) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Anyone having trouble playing overwatch cause it keeps kicking me to the menu saying lost connection and i have to log in

  • MarikoRawralton MarikoRawralton (@MarikoRawralton) reported

    @notthebees_ow @lesyyu Overwatch players don't know how balance works so they think literally any character that isn't broken bullshit is unusable.

  • ImKane666 𝑮𝒂𝒏𝒆 𝑲𝒂𝒏𝒆666 (@ImKane666) reported

    Apex the same way. High rank but still cant ain't at me. Come on man this isnt good. Overwatch is much much worse because to me, Sojourn is so ******* broken and if you dont believe me, I'm about to show you. Using her is like playing COD Advanced Warfare, Infinite Warfare & -

  • dub1ino dysfunctional (@dub1ino) reported

    overwatch needs to remove map pools, add a pick&ban draft system into ranked, and address issues with the support role.

  • MadDoggGames MadDogg (@MadDoggGames) reported

    Overwatch 2 servers down or something? Keep getting disconnected.

  • chrisfelcker Chris Felcker (@chrisfelcker) reported

    @Mezari_Oz @PlayHearthstone It's a known issue, but Blizz isn't saying anything about it (like usual). Overwatch is down as well.

  • ClutchTrev Trevor V (@ClutchTrev) reported

    @ItsSomjuu This has happened to me on overwatch 1 on ps4. Never had this issue on pc or the series s. Series S has fps problems but this seems to be a bug that happens on playstation, but very rarely though.

    ah my internet decided to crash while playing overwatch comp ahhh nice

  • Txckerr Tucker (@Txckerr) reported

    @BlizzardCS is overwatch 2 servers down?

  • jakub_urby Jakub Urby (@jakub_urby) reported

    @DaftLimmy That's just your problem that you don't watch over your child, say overwatch is bad is like to say internet is bad you can find awesome and awful things here so

  • emzsketches ♡ emz ♡ (@emzsketches) reported

    @BlizzardCS Hey are you having issues with Overwatch 2 servers? I can't seem to login and I've tried repairing the game and resetting my network and everything. The only thing repairing the game did was get rid of my friends list 😭😭

  • ZalbarTheMad Emperor Ming (@ZalbarTheMad) reported

    @OverwatchCaval I see that they are rapidly responding to problems with the new "able to adjust the dials" quickly as promised for Overwatch 2 /sarcasm off

  • de_stuben VonStuben 🕴🔮 (@de_stuben) reported

    It’s crazy because other than the abysmal shop prices and hero’s in battle pass, the only huge problem is really the balancing and even that isn’t as bad as some Overwatch content creators want you to believe. Get them off the payroll tbh

  • J_Writes_Things Joshua Robin (@J_Writes_Things) reported

    Marvel Snap has the same exact problem that Overwatch 1 had for me. The balance team has no idea what they want to do and are doing nothing while the game becomes not fun.

  • NerdyDylan_ND11 NerdyDylan (@NerdyDylan_ND11) reported

    If Apex finally adds cross progression this year then expect me to never touch Overwatch again. The new players and horrible balancing really ruined the game for me. Apex has problems also but Overwatch is just not fun at the end of the day.

    @Stylosa Like come on, you look like a broken record that repeats the same thing over and over, and you don't wonder why overwatch is going on like this, but you're just complaining about it comparing it to a game that failed. Heck if it's annoying to hear things that are not thought of..
