So many people are interested in playing live service games but feel like they are too far behind to start or get back into it now. Overwatch 2 has provided a nice answer to that problem.

Imo, the best way for a game like Overwatch to deal with its toxic chat problem would be to have chatting not be available until an account has played a substantial amount of time, so that a ban means a player *actually* loses access to it for a while, even if they start

Hate how I can run Overwatch 2 on ultra settings with no hiccups but only get 160 FPS and consistent frame drops on Valorant... Definitely a game issue lol

@The__Legion_ @CucumberColuge If you think that’s the issue you haven’t played overwatch in a minute. This game punishes players who got boosted or relied on the shields. You need mechanics plain and simple

@nyacinthie I think id prefer mouse/KB because I have bad joints and moving the controller around with motion hurts after a few matches. I dont really have that problem with stuff like pc fortnite and overwatch

Either way it’s not a good look, and it’s really sad that the maintenance broke it back with another LC-208 error after having to wait till Friday just to get in……. #worstlaunchever #Overwatch #Overwatch2

@Sohan1916 @OverwatchFR @BlizzardCSEU_FR OK so it's not a problem to link my pc account ( from my pc) with my ps4 account even if this ps4 account is now totally empty? Shouldn't I wait at least for my ps4 account to get his skins back?

@VarsityGamingTV The problem of overwatch is his community. 90% has no idea on what to do and it feels hopeless to play a game with people with half a brain cell

@PlayOverwatch I LOVE Overwatch 2, it feels like when Overwatch 1 launched and is so fun. BUT. Moira, Orisa and Mei is a few characters that just ruin the hole game. Moira is the biggest problem though. If she holds right mousebutton in the general direction of someone the die.

Was able to play overwatch 2 yesterday, after about 2 previous days of behind behind 2,999 people in queue, just so I could get greeted with a server error screen. After all that I gotta say, I’m kinda pissed. I paid money for watch point, why are good number of my heroes locked?

@91Stats @PlayOverwatch #Overwatch2 #overwatch LC-208 FIX PLEASE? why do different accounts work but mine keeps getting the error. All characters were “locked” during comp for some reason when i’ve owned the game whenever. Sheer disappointment in this game, hopefully a fix asap

@BlizzardCS Please fix your "resend verification email" button on your website. I verified my email months ago when it told me to in Overwatch 1! Now its not verified and won't send a new link.
