-
E nigma (@Inscryptioner) reported@j_step21 Hot take, but Concord wasn't 'terrible' as a game. The issue was, it was just Overwatch but slower. The lore was pretty decent, and it seems someone put effort into that. It's just a shame the character designs were so piss poor and it brought nothing new to the table
-
Rhy🍌 (@CustomPersona_) reportedwhy'd my overwatch just crash guys guhlp
-
Uninvited (@CultOfRoyal) reported@EFlexMusic @Pirat_Nation Nah. Overwatch has a lot of porn but its not like everyones playing it. The Fan service may have gotten it a lot of attention, but its everything else that has kept it in the spotlight
-
Grok (@grok) reportedNetwork interpolation delay in Overwatch 2, typically around 31.25 ms at a 64 Hz tick rate, smooths gameplay by predicting movements between server updates. It ensures fluid visuals but can cause issues: shots may miss or hit incorrectly due to client-server mismatches, enemy movements may appear erratic, and abilities might not sync properly. Players with lower latency gain a competitive edge, as their actions register faster. While essential for a playable experience, high delay can lead to rubberbanding and frustration. Optimizing your connection, like using wired internet, may help reduce these effects.

YeeHan Enjoyer (@YeeHanHater) reportedoverwatch, wdym I can't hear my gf sing now 😡😡 fix the vc 😡😡😡
-
JAZ 🔮🎇 (@JazCelest) reportedMy English is so broken, because I'd absorved non stop words and accents of every english speaking country... I blame nijisanji and the aussie overwatch content creators.
-
Aaron (@aaronreading) reportedFor the first time since launch, Overwatch has pissed me off so bad that I've uninstalled the game. @PlayOverwatch please for the love of god fix your matchmaking. This is abysmal. I love this game. I want to play it. I'm having ZERO fun with how it's set up currently.
-
wyrm (Ramattra Daki IN PRODUCTION) (@ohwyrmm) reported@ceroeit Thank you! I lowkey think it's just in one of the art books so I'm just going to have to sit down with mine Weird issue with googling Overwatch Era Overwatch images is that. That's the. Name of the franchise. So it doesn't work
-
big7pointer (@Big7pointer) reported@yseasoned @Greenpig117 Because overwatch simply missed its chance to be a good game again i'm afraid. Their lack of trying to improve until they had competition is the embodiment of everything wrong with live service games.
-
Jody Yarbrough (@Jody__Yarbrough) reportedOverwatch please fix matchmaking in Stadium. One game I get lowest rank people the next game I’m playing against legends…. If your not grouped your not climbing plain and simple.
-
Ray🌸 (@rayyvioli) reported@dottanic I hate that skins seem like the only actual piece of content we can look forward to.. like the whole trailer was 30 seconds of stadium **** and the rest was showcasing skins.. I don't buy skins but I think overwatch created this problem themselves and likes when people are upset
-
trabucooo (@trabucooo1) reported@arceus227 @JunosHyperRing @PlayOverwatch Overwatch isn't fun, that's the problem, and como don't give you rewards, actual rewards for ranking up, the only progression is the battle pass, which if yo don't pay get nothing
-
Leon (@bobafettyaoi) reported@rodiprimes yeah I figured 😭😭 tho what’s funny is that I’ve had no problem adjusting to paladins on pc from getting used to the controls with overwatch
-
shark (@GREATWHlTESHART) reportedik this is such a non issue but i wish overwatch had more slots for emotes like i have so many mercy emotes i want to equip but can only put 4 😔
-
HaloiOi (@Juicebox343GS) reported@HubPointless Also if there were ever a topic not spoken about enough, it's this exact issue here. Counter Strike, Overwatch, Valorant, Doom is basically Halo 3 customs with player speed at 150%! Sprint is a gimmick that's fun, but it was never Halo's core experience. Halo 3 was that in spades
-
em 🩷💜💙 (@catboypcy) reportedoverwatch has to fix this server **** its crashed 4 times tonight
-
Ryancrazyrhino (@CrazyRh1no) reported@CY4N4R4 I think that's one of my issues with Overwatch right now, there's no actual new content and I reached a point in my life where Skins don't matter to me and I hate the cash shop and how scummy it is, but at least Fortnite has new events and modes alongside is cash shop.
-
R.T (@RyanTmhg) reported@CY4N4R4 I don’t get the issue, you know how the game plays it’s Overwatch the same as it has for years. Map voting is coming everybody knows this why are people upset it’s not in the trailer if they know it’s coming.
-
gamja (@gamja2174) reported@Gracellynn6 @Vodible @MarvelRivals Agreed. Overwatch has some of these issues as well, but at least OW has taken a firm stance that it’s going to be a competitive game and Blizzard at least officially supports/acknowledges the Esports scene and gives it a stable/sustainable league/structure.
-
Nicholas 🇬🇷 (@nicvis986) reportedAbout to go to target to spend $60 that I don’t have on an Xbox controller to see if the issue with my overwatch game is fixed by getting a new one.
-
osf (@oh_ess_eff) reported@JJETSFAN u gotta use the operator bro thats a lot like overwatch stuff from what ive heard and its lowkey broken
-
Makex (@MakexOW) reported@Coach_Spilo why are you trying to defend him while acknowledging that he has bigoted views? seems like there is a big issue with overwatch content creators/pro players ignoring that people like awkward, dafran and now gamin4hope are extremely hateful people, especially towards minorities.
-
cal_modz (@calmodzz) reportedis there another replay bug? i cant load any replays on overwatch and i get an error
-
AlbinoNemo (@nemothe2nd) reported@InsoNoSleep widow was never a problem in overwatch for like 90% of the playerbase lmao
-
Baridorielor Silvershadow 🏴☠️ (@Baridorielor) reported@JackyRaider @TheActMan_YT @ShitpostRock And given the circles TheActMan runs in, they should knew that, since they are the ones saying it, while still playing their games like Overwatch, acting like their cool now just because they paid lip service to the idea of being sorry... 😒
-
divinity (@owdivinity) reportedI am currently looking for work as an 3DITOR. I can work in both short and long form. I have a solid understanding of Overwatch, Marvel Rivals, League of Legends, and Valorant, and am open to non-game-specific work. DM For Resume/Reel Discord: divinityy. Due to some clerical errors, my university job likely won't be able to get me on payroll until the start of the next semester, and I have bills to pay.
-
X2 (@X2pinkcray) reported@SkywardPlate @ThelVanDamne @HerosDr34m Req packs which affected one gamemode only in the halo community yall blame the devs for people this **** in but cod was doing it and Overwatch and none of the fans from those games blame the game for it. It was literally industry standard and regardless halo 5 was live service.
-
anyka✨ (@_celestialss) reported@KurtJP35 I can a guarantee they saw the success of Overwatch since this happened in 2017 and pivoted because of that. They truly are scared of doing their own thing and would rather chase trends in service of making more money
-
wA Mighty (@MightyAims) reported@Bluah97 Sensor is decent, I think it’s either 3370 or 3395, and it performs amazing in game, no issues when playing any game, and doesn’t feel any different than any other mouse using a 480hz monitor in Overwatch
-
Jlopez (@Jlopez9417) reported@Chai_Splat I have a slight input lag on the Switch 2 version of Overwatch 2. Is it only me?
