  • IzemaX FusRoDah (@IzemaX) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN all I know is that two days ago I was playing Overwatch and now it will take days without it before you are able to fix the huge mess you manage to create with every single game release. You’re but a pale image of what Blizzard once was 🙄🙄

  • connorl0ve9 #Vove Connor (@connorl0ve9) reported

    From the few hours of playing the new Overwatch 2 with @shyclover_ im honestly enjoying it. Apart from the ddos attack anyway. Also hopped into comp for a bit and got 3 wins as junker queen

  • EXO_isaucy iittzzSaucy (@EXO_isaucy) reported

    Anyone else having problems loading overwatch 2 on PlayStation???

  • TheReyBashon TheReyBashon (@TheReyBashon) reported

    Everyone yelling at Overwatch creators and Blizzard for the servers like they were behind the DDoS attack.

  • Pordama7 Pordama (@Pordama7) reported

    Overwatch 2 is so *** **** this game u could of just keep the same game serveres werent broken and the only people are streamers in it like what *** GAME do some thing else with your work @PlayOverwatch

  • steveHNH Stephen (@steveHNH) reported

    It would be pretty great if blizzard would have set up the Overwatch login screen to let me at least change some graphics settings while I sit here and wait. -_-

  • AuntieZe 👽Auntie Ze👽🔞(Bad ***** arc) {Pre-Debut} (@AuntieZe) reported

    @kenpachi_elric I dont see anything on the main overwatch account about a ddos attack and I have friends currently playing the game the only thing that says anything about a ddos attack is IGN. I also havent been on twitter until I posted that so i wouldnt know anything :)

  • monocrhomicorn lui (@monocrhomicorn) reported

    40000 pessoas na fila de login do overwatch?

  • M3ZMERUS M3ZMERUS (@M3ZMERUS) reported

    @PlayOverwatch my friend (who bought OW1 Legendary Edition) gets an error when loading into Overwatch 2 on his PS4 saying “free trial has ended” and that he must purchase the game to play. Any fix?

  • Scolded_ twitch.tv/ScoldedLive (@Scolded_) reported

    Almost 6 hours but I finally made it into Overwatch 2, surely there won't be a problem at all and I won't be kicked out

  • DathomirsWitch Dream of the endless is a himbo❤💙💚💛🧡💜 (@DathomirsWitch) reported

    I cant log onto Overwatch 2 cause of the errors. It just says 0 players ahead of you and does nothing 😭

  • CtrlAlex5 Alex (@CtrlAlex5) reported

    Goddamn can overwatch fix their damn servers

  • nick_zasowski Nick Zasowski (@nick_zasowski) reported

    Twitter has completely ruined the idea of “breaking news.” Like, I’m sorry IGN but Overwatch 2 having server issues on day one does not warrant BREAKING in your tweet.

  • cattydidit boo 🐝 (@cattydidit) reported

    how come my bf, who didn’t want to play overwatch 2, isn’t getting server errors but the two times i’ve gotten in have gotten server errors within 30 minutes that kick me out

  • Meyrin186 Mey-rin (@Meyrin186) reported

    @PlayOverwatch This is bullshit I've been supporting Overwatch since day 1 and just because I have Cricket as my phone service provider, you are not allowing us to to play. Total bullshit!!! #bullshit #fixthis #WeWantToPlay

  • PauseScreenMC Mountie - Pause Screen Media (@PauseScreenMC) reported

    @timthetatman Notice how Tim gets into Overwatch no problem. No queue for him. Why? Cause he has influencer priority and the regular people have very little value to Blizzard.

  • SumoGG_ SumoGG (@SumoGG_) reported

    Overwatch 2 is the most fun I've had gaming in a hot minute minus the server issues. People ddosing servers bc their mad they can't make alt accounts anymore lmfaooo

  • jordon_af **** 4 space (@jordon_af) reported

    Looking like Overwatch 2 is still having pretty significant issues, and are still suffering from DDoS-ers. I'm gonna be sad if I can't play when I get home because I've been waiting for this all day long

  • AncientLeafx AncientLeaf8964 (@AncientLeafx) reported

    The things I would to for Blizzard to fix the overwatch servers

  • JTT843 Jaymo 👽🛸✌️ (@JTT843) reported

    Overwatch fix your ******* **** you kicked me when it gave me an achievement and now it’s been damn near 40 minutes to load back in after an hour of waiting

  • InstinctIsKing Instinct (@InstinctIsKing) reported

    @PlayOverwatch It would be a wish, if you prepared for your servers to flood, and on top of that, your transferring data from Overwatch to Overwatch 2. If you would’ve prepared for this we wouldn’t have this issue, would we?

  • lognthinkshecan Big Hat Logan ☕🍜🍃💨 (@lognthinkshecan) reported

    Welp all my skins are missing and i tried to restart but keep getting server errors. Thanks Overwatch 2. 0/10 **** game

  • TheRadTags Tags, I'm it!🔞Comms 3/5 (@TheRadTags) reported

    tbh having played blizzard games for almost 20 years, the idea that they didn't expect this much day 1 traffic is way more likely to me than someone DDoS'ing overwatch. Every WoW expansion was unplayable on launch because of the sheer volume crashing down on the servers.

  • FAMEDAWLS 🥩 (@FAMEDAWLS) reported

    how is anyone playing overwatch rn this shite is not working

  • gohemz gohem⁉️ (@gohemz) reported

    overwatch 2 PS4 seems to be completely broken

  • moth1ng 𝘮𝘰𝘵 (@moth1ng) reported

    aint no way overwatch 2 is getting ddos on its first day 😭

  • Replicatedman Rep (@Replicatedman) reported

    Overwatch Servers are broken :( Rip my game plans

  • TakGoUp Tak (@TakGoUp) reported

    It's not Blizzard's fault the Overwatch 2 servers are down but it's still way more entertaining to pretend like it is for the sake of the laundry list of problems going on with them.

  • Sl1meba11 Jamaican.Juice 🐙 (@Sl1meba11) reported

    Overwatch 2 servers suffer a mass DDOS attack during their launch 😳

  • gohemz gohem⁉️ (@gohemz) reported

    Overwatch 2 PS5 version seems to be completely broken I've been trying to get in for 5 hours and still haven't got in once
