Feeling for the Overwatch 2 players right now. I don’t play the game but there’s no reason to DDoS games just to mess with the community. They’re gonna play regardless of you being an *** or not.

@MikeStrawMedia @ATVI_AB @PlayOverwatch if you cant get a phone number then i think you have bigger issues than whether or not you can play overwatch

Known issues for overwatch, putting a paywall behind skins and battle passes just doesn't seem like a good way for people to have fun. Loot boxes could be grinded and gave some reward. New players didn't have to unlock people either. Just a horrible game run tbh

Having launch issues is one thing but keeping us in silence is another. I played this game for years and never gave up. This is putting a sour taste towards overwatch, to the point where I kinda want a refund. Im so disappointed in you guys. @PlayOverwatch @Blizzard_Ent @Qwik

Maybe I'm shouting into the abyss here but it's ABSOLUTELY INSANE to me that a multi-million dollar video game company can have an always online game with zero protections against DDoS attacks. #Overwatch2 #Overwatch

I caved and decided to give Overwatch 2 a chance. Seeing all of the issues everyone is having is making me want to not even touch it, even when PvE gets added. Also, I haven't even gotten in yet and I've been trying since yesterday. Blizzard is on my avoid list now.

@TheActMan_YT i think some people seem to forget that overwatch heroes are used to counter other heroes, so if you dont have a hero that is used to counter that one person who is giving you trouble in a match then you are ******

I’ve been extremely emotionally unavailable for several months now that I know damn well this Overwatch 2 server issue would have blew my mind last year. I still remember the DBD Resident Evil Chapter release day disaster and how frustrated I was.

@deloperfection @FortniteStatus Fortnite is Epic Games. Overwatch is Blizzard. They won't fix servers that don't belong to them

I really can’t wait to see Overwatch 2 die within a week. Server issues 2 days straight, after 27 hours to prep, and the changes they made are, in my opinion, terrible and shouldn’t have gone through. And I don’t even want to talk about the terrible F2P route they going on.

Seen a lot of people playing Overwatch lately, figured I'd try it out when it went ftp, but for some reason I can't get in? Been trying all day. It seems like some people are able to play, but some aren't? Is it an issue adding new players to the servers or something?

All Cops Are Buttholes

Feeling kinda sad that Overwatch 1 was shut down completely just to make way for the sequel. A whole service, with all its little quirks just gone.

@SireNoName @OWAnonymous_ They probably didn't have to deal with multiple ddos attacks and the amount of players that overwatch has though. But I am surprised that they didn't upgrade the servers for the 4th.

What in ******** is up with Overwatch 2’s servers??? I’ve been trying to get in for two straight days and I get an error every single time. Way to ensure OW2 is dead on launch, you guys lost so many players!! @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS
