  @776Icy Smash has awful online. It also sucks for me but Splatoon 2, Fortnite and Overwatch work no problem for me.

  @ScottishOptimis This is the first COD I've played since Black Ops 3, due to being fedup of cheats. Played Overwatch constantly, as they seem have solved that problem. You can't even spawn camp.

  Let's not let this talk of that developer on Overwatch distract us from the real problem in the games industry: narrative.

  problem ? its a video game for gods sake , its not any different than apex , overwatch , etc. its embarrassing how you adults will put yourselves up on a throne with a crown and act like its funny to bully these kids for simply enjoying something.

  @danteh The problem most teams don’t want good players they want budget players and that will cost Overwatch great players then fans and eventually bye bye league

  @TheAnaSan I'm in that stage as well where I don't really wanna stream league even though I play it a fair bit and I'm burnt out with overwatch. I keep telling myself nobody really wants to play plat shitters. my issue is that when I reach diamond I feel feel the same about diamond

  overwatch is an interesting example in that it also has this problem but also the game is completely dead *except* for the competitive players, which i don't think is the case for league, so

  @ClusellasJuan @TechVolt717 @OWAnonymous_ then go play minecraft or the sims or some ****??? Overwatch comp isn’t gonna fix your mental problems. Trust me, i wish they could but yeah no.

  @pasteldork I'd take you up on this, but console Overwatch is pretty different so a lot of what works on PC is borderline impossible. The issue is we should be practicing a different meta than we we are but since we're the runt version no one really cares to figure out what that is.

  Is anyone having problems loading in overwatch ???? 😭😭 @PlayOverwatch

  itzSalty (@itzsalty) reported 26 minutes ago

  @Snowyfennec The problem with Overwatch for me was that, while there weren't as many bad times, they were worse than the good times were good. The good times were me doing crazy numbers in a match, but the bad times were the teams I'd either play with or against being unpleasant.

  @KiguRoomie @bimtenvt I really like playing open world games,but also team based shooters like Overwatch and Valorant,, my pc has a few issues right now though, so I cant play valorant :(

  All Overwatch has to do to fix the game before 2 releases is drastically reduce AoE healing or remove it entirely, rework Brig from the ground up (make of that what you will), remove headshot instakills that aren't abilities and remove role queue. Quote me on that.

  @ScrubQuotesX I have no issue with sbmm, if its on quick play im a little neutral to it, but if it is in casual modes like how say, 6v6 random on overwatch, no thanks, ill pass

  @SStanno_ That's what Overwatch did, problem with that is high rank players, join casual with 1-2 friends and carry a 3 vs 6 with the other 6 have 0 chance of winning. SBMM prevents this because they will climb.

  Every single match in #Overwatch has at least one leaver. And often times the leaver appears in the right next match. The player leaves the match again when losing. And then same player matches me again. #Blizzard isn't trying to tackle leaver issues at all 😡

  @SourBulba They already did. We got Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric. The problem is that whatever developer you choose, they'll be filtered through SEGA's overwatch. And SEGA has awful ideas like "change of plans, port this PS4 game to WiiU".

  @OWAnonymous_ Overwatch/blizzard wants this too happen. It's the issue of Sony that is preventing the cross play of consoles

  @TheActMan_YT Everything feels just short of what it should be. I can already tell the balancing team has (somehow) less IQ than overwatches. When the MP5 is running rampant for the second year in a row they decide to need the range which isnt at all the problem with the gun.

  Overwatch was like 20 bucks for black friday and izzy bought it for me on xbox as an early Christmas present. The only issue is I know that she only bought it so I would play with her -_- selfish selfish selfish

  @BlizzardCS Submitting feedback to the forums is a waste of time. Who reads them? This isn’t an issue I can bring up on a forum. All I’m saying is Overwatch has been out for over 4yrs and there are still major issues with balance. Tracer needs a major buff! Hope you guys can fix that. Thx

  @Mezzolith @Pixelade It's actually just one that is necessary "nraas - overwatch" it deletes cars and resets stuck Sims. The other one is "nraas mastercontoler" it's more optional to me, I use it to fix very specific stuff or to reset the entire world when the "invisible sims" bug appears.
