  • LilNickyChubb J2H8 (@LilNickyChubb) reported

    @Marleyaesthetic @BlizzardCS @SmulPluto They don’t care. This overwatch 2 is going to be a huge bust unfortunately. They seem not to care to put out a decent product or to help people with issues.

  • veronicabaily V (@veronicabaily) reported

    Literally begging Overwatch to fix the server issues so I can actually play with friends tonight lol 🤲🏻

  • AWerewolfNot A Swearwolf (@AWerewolfNot) reported

    You'd think that people would expect a Blizzard launch to be fraught with problems by now. I don't understand the shock and outrage over Overwatch 2's launch issues.

  • chuued Federally Subsidized Kool-Aid Jammer (@chuued) reported

    @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS I have not been able to merge my Playstation and Xbox accounts in Overwatch 2. I linked my accounts before the release but I haven't been prompted to merge accounts at any time while playing OW2. So I have none of my progression. Os this a known issue?

  • xfarrangex Steven 🇨🇦 (@xfarrangex) reported

    @RawCyberHub @yoppki The problem with Overwatch though is it isn't a bee game so there's already a lot sweats. The game was also known to have smurfing problem, and that was before it was F2P. Can't imagine you'll be playing anyone close to your skill level unless you dedicate a lot time in it.

  • KatieParsonage Katie Parsonage (@KatieParsonage) reported

    @PlayOverwatch It's been 18 and a half hours since the launch of Overwatch 2 and Im still receiving log in errors and disconnecting from the game server😤 #Overwatch #Overwatch2

  • St_PaddyMad Toasted Rooster (@St_PaddyMad) reported

    Overwatch 2 being DDoS'd on launch day is just taking the whole "**** Overwatch LOL" meme a whole new mile way too far. You wouldn't act like this if it were your other favourite game now, would ya? What if it were Destiny 2 or Team Fortress 2?

  • Washburn135 washy (@Washburn135) reported

    You see, there is this really great game called Destiny 2. Where essential aspects like PVP characters are not locked behind battle pass progression. You can play it while Blizzard figures out how to fix the latest patch to Overwatch 1. You don't have to sit in a broken queue.

  • MagicJaylen Jay (@MagicJaylen) reported

    @BlizzardCS I was finally able to get into OverWatch 2, but I'm sadly missing everything. Is there any progress being made on restoring people's accounts. I bought the watchpoint pack and was able to play in the beta with no issue but now since the full release everything is lost

  • Kneeckoh_Gaming Kneeckoh Gaming (@Kneeckoh_Gaming) reported

  • AshRaven10 AshRaven (@AshRaven10) reported

    Was planning to play Overwatch 2 with another streamer but with all the issues and problems with the game we decided to wait until Blizzard fixes the game

  • diogovenanci didi jump (@diogovenanci) reported

    @BlizzardCS @dewliciouz So i think thats a server problem, in this moment its possible to enter in the game but maybe the servers cant do the migration. And im trying to make the migration to overwatch 1 to 2 in the same acount of the PS4

  • airfuuka fuuka☁️ aoba CEO (@airfuuka) reported

    @finding_albums Did any of you guys log into Overwatch 2 and not keep the inventory you previously had? Not sure if it's just a day 1 issue or if something happened on my end, and the merge accounts isn't opening for me so I'm not really sure how to recover my stuff lol

  • YoSquid_ K (@YoSquid_) reported

    Day 2 overwatch is still broken once again I’ll be back in a week or until someone tells me they added more servers either way seems people are quitting it entirely already

  • CrazySkullHeart CrazySkullHeart (@CrazySkullHeart) reported

    So… overwatch 2 (cough cough it’s really 1.1 cough cough) is being ddos’ed and has gotten off to a bad start. In other news, sky is blue and grass is green.

  • Four_k_tweetin Four-K (@Four_k_tweetin) reported

    @EnbyEiri Well I know what you mean, but I did put a support ticket in over the weekend with them about an issue I had and they got back to me and sorted it by yesterday! So that’s not bad considering the big launch of Overwatch 2. 😗

  • KyokoTsumi Lauren Nightshade (@KyokoTsumi) reported

    @BlizzardCS I bought Overwatch 2 Watchpoint Pack for the PS4/PS5 version and the Switch and it’s acting like I never paid them and I have confirmation for both consoles as proof. Is there a way to fix that?

  • Spotto14 Spotto (@Spotto14) reported

    Yknow I was excited to finally be able to stream overwatch again but uh with the ddos attack I have a feeling I won't be able to get in for a couple days...pain, true pain. I waited 4 hours and didn't even get in.. #Overwatch2
