@WilliamDArthur @TriggGaming92 @charlieINTEL Problem with Battlepasses today, I was trying to run Apex, Cod, Overwatch, Destiny 2 and battlefield. It's impossible to do. So I cut out Battlefield and Overwatch Battlepasses.

@USCU_ORION @NyanSox I still think 2cp wasn't that bad but the team on overwatch didn't know how to encourage team play and 2cp falls apart then even at the highest levels. Which is why only overwatch players cry about 2cp (*** maps excluded) and now push. No other game with 2cp has this issue.

@PlayOverwatch You've grown your team 3 times of its size but address issues as slow as you used to back in like 2018. You know matchmaking is broken, Mercy pocket is a problem and Replay feature is screwed. Where is your team? What are they doing? #Overwatch #Overwatch2

@Lethamyr_RL Impossible problem to tackle. The issues of the free to play game. If the game costed just $10 we wouldn’t have the issue. You get the same problem overwatch had by requiring a phone, but without it there is no good verification. Seems like the only way.

@SplinterCal But that begs the question why do games like TF2 and Overwatch stick when they are the live service model?

@KaiserNeko FOMO kills me. Overwatch 1 and 2 are a shining example of this- disregarding personal opinions on the games, first game had a free grindable level up system while OW2 is a paid battle pass with paid shop items. EVERY active online service game feels draining right now

@Springey_ I completely see with your point and agree to a certain degree. The upside to this is that the skins will feel more "special" and/or rare outside of the events. Overwatch used to do this for instance, and I remember most people didn't have a problem with that.

@SaltagreppoD2 @AaronC31 40% buff is fine the problem is the enemies! I never thought I’d say this, but Bungie really needs to copy what overwatch 2 is doing for their PVE because that **** looks nuts, the variety, complexity of enemies is huge and shooting them feels wild

Assistance wasn’t coming, the world was at war with the omnics; Overwatch had fallen, disavowed. Those at the higher up were simply just pulling soldiers away from less important areas, leaving the poor to die. Then they started to run out of soldiers to throw at the problem.

@judeau19 @s9mmow unfortunate that this is overwatch we’re talking about then, blizz would rather band-aid non-issues once a month and pump out $20 skins than make meaningful balance changes regularly

Battlepasses ruin games - they suit "live service" games that are time dependant and you devote time to: apex, overwatch ect. - but are pointless in 20 hr story games, doing nothing more than to turn consumers away as they do nothing more than time lock cosmetics/in game items

@PlayOverwatch Do you remember some paid money for Battle Pass generally valid for the season that has only 9 weeks, and the half of the season has passed already? Should players continue playing the game with all these issues for their entire season? #Overwatch #Overwatch2

@KuganeGaming This was a problem seen when the overwatch devs revealed that players are effectively placed in an algorithm in which they will come out with a 50/50 Winrate no matter what. Lose too much? Make the other team comp be of lesser skilled players. Win too much? The opposite. This...

@_missbubbles Dont forget ppl playing OW2. I spent 6 years at Blizzard among those discriminated and abused. I guess media claiming change because Kotick is out (problems are still there) and retconning the backgrounds of Overwatch characters are enough somehow

My biggest issue with overwatch is whoever they release a new skin in the shop for an event they give it the ugly shop icon, and not the Lunar icon or Winter icon. Like why are we being lazy blizzard 💀💀

@Dreamsyncc @daddy_meganttv It’s not a bad game state if you just lose. And how many multiplayers would then have this same issue and moral conundrum? Overwatch, apex, according to you dbd, rogue, fortnite. Etc sure a lot of these games need better matchmaking but just take the L or the w and carry on

biggest issue with overwatch 2 is the fact that every single open queue mode... so every single mode besides 2, is completely ****** and unplayable due to multiple tanks being able to be picked.

@calpark16x_rl @NetherMason @Lethamyr_RL It doesn't play well, but I used to play split screen with my little bro using separate accounts, which could be an issue for some people. The easiest way is to make the new accounts hit at least level 50 before ranked instead of lvl 10. Similar to overwatch's 50 win requirement.

@AndreaPichinini I disagree with that statement you still get value added to gamepass and you can potentially get revival of games like Crash, Tony Hawk, Starcraft, and whether else they own it will no longer be just CoD and Overwatch

Releasing patches on a season/mid-season basis kills games. Having to wait 4 weeks for a much needed balance patch is a joke. Especially if you're a competitive player. Basing thus off overwatch, hog and sojourn are still ridiculously broken. Game has been out for 3 months.

Like I bought Overwatch and people before me have bought games like Diablo, WoW, COD, THPS, Crash but nobody knew what was going inside the walls of Activision Blizzard. Knowing now means I'm not gonna ever gonna buy another from them.

Mercy's movement is fine. The problem with the Overwatch community still thinks supports should be free kills when it comes to tank and ESPECIALLY DPS mains. This is why many also STILL want zen nerfed like for years a strat wasn't "kill zen first" (lol)

I’m glad I made Fortnite/Overwatch my main game because the player base is definitely 50/50 of Men and Women who are generally pretty chill. Apex was full of jobless 25-30+ grown *** Men with god complexes and daddy issues yelling in the mic for their own lack of skill 😭

@LumberjackRy It's ppl's fault for supporting live service...Activision is the heart of it, and xbox....so it's too late for ppl to pretend they don't like live service most bought xbox for FPS games like Halo, COD , overwatch etc..getting them all in one place

@CManic97 @PlayApex It's all recolours As and skin in post. It's still good quality, you just don't like it I like blue color so I'd get it, but i have problems with Prime in my country. Bad recolour would be if there was like ****** stretches on the textures, artifacts etc (yes, Overwatch, you)
