@Thalinai @Ballshack_ow @Stylosa Overwatch has activision’s big wallet. Cash isn’t an issue lol

To fix overwatch, additional variables such as damage / armour / ability types need to be added to the game that can allow fine-tune balancing modifications that do not have unintended impact outside of their original justification. I've been saying this for years.

@JeremyPenter New World is the worst fun game I've played since Overwatch So much potential for fun being mushed into oblivion by constant issues

@TheRealOXII The problem is the whole development of overwatch 2 was done in a work from home environment and video game development doesn't really work well like that.

Overwatch 2 being endlessly delayed wouldn't be such an issue if Overwatch 1 wasn't on life support barely holding on for almost 2 years. Just take some of the finished content from 2 and put it in the live game. The game and community will die entirely unless content is injected

thinking about how blizzard renamed overwatch's "mccree" to "cassidy" as an attempt to make up for the girl that k*lled herself in their offices due to constant harassment?????? like wow u renamed the cowboy guess the entire issue is over now

4. Competitive. The current state of overwatch is spiralling downwards in terms of player base and the issue for this reason happened a long time ago. This game has never been “fun”, there’s always smurfs, hackers, toxicity, or players saying misogynistic things

@I_AM_WILDCAT @elgato @ElgatoSupport For me when I first downloaded New World, OBS always crashes when I stream New World, then went over to Overwatch and TFT, apps just crash outta nowhere without warning and stream stops so im at the same boat

@Vampirate_90 @Flats_OW according to tweets from multiple org staff today it seems like they will still be playing it on OW2. we can just expect it to be "bastion personal shield" levels of janky and broken during the Overwatch League 🤡

Ok.. maybe i don't have be alarmist with the 3DS issues, and trying to take this opportunity to make stream with the new optic fiber, what do you think... it's a good idea, and try again with some games like minecraft, overwatch, stardew valley, and other games

@PaulTassi @Forbes Overwatch 2 doesn’t need to exist. They just needed to add those elements as expansions or DLC to Overwatch. These types of live service games don’t need standalone sequels.

@Crystar800 The last time that game ever got a new addition was when I was still in Hugh School. The fact something as well known as Overwatch can't get yearly content whilst other live service games like Destiny 2 can, only intensifies my believe that Overwatch is pretty much a cold corpse.

IF YOU ACTUALLY CARED ABOUT THE WORKERS WHO WERE ABUSED AT BLIZZARD YOU WOULD LOOK INTO THE ISSUE AND FOLLOW @ABETTERABK BUT YOU DON'T CARE, YOU JUST **** TALK OVERWATCH BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT DOING ENOUGH IN YOUR EYES WHEN THE DEVS ARE DOING ALL THAT THEY CAN

@TheChowderhead Did people forget about the millions of dollars that go straight to the execs instead of Blizzard? 🤦 Like, just a few moderately high earning employees of Blizzard could fix Overwatch and make it better than it is currently. (I'm talking about money)

Overwatch 2 doesn't exist, it has always just been a blanket Blizzard puts over whatever issue they want to ignore and pretend isn't there.

@KafroHudrep @aaa_a1347 The issue was with Blizzard, not the Overwatch team (to my knowledge) so really the team should've been unaffected by the scandal. But I hardly doubt they needed to push the release back by 3 years because of the issue

@mr_devilhs yeah the problem was they wanted so hard to make it an esport just like lol was at the time but lol took their time to establish their esport while overwatch didnt . well at the bright side we still waifus and porn out of that game

@striiidor tbh at that point they should just admit that overwatch 2 was a bad idea and should fix and update the first game lmao

@mr_devilhs @DJDrfeelgoodPhD Imagine picking up a multiplayer only game on release! Who even cares about waiting for new games to come out these days? There's such a huge backlog of **** to play, I'm glad for this opportunity not to get stuck in my old habits of playing Overwatch nonstop as my fix for tf3

Whichever streamer has convinced loud people going F2P will solve literally any problem in Overwatch currently should really go into sales. Like really that makes no actual sense but you have people hand over fist proclaiming the change to be the grand savior move of the game.

If you still ddos in season 30 of overwatch you actually just need to end urself. Don't get how these kids still ddos even if it's a crime actual brain dead human beings

@PogeWasTaken @Neqtuen I’m pretty sure they said the PVE **** is mostly done. I think the issue is that they realized that they have to change up the WHOLE roster to accommodate for Overwatch 2 being 5 v 5 and ik some heroes are changing roles and getting reworks. It’s a mess

Hey @ATVI_AB @ATVIAssist @BlizzardCS I’m having trouble with Overwatch on my Xbox One X, I tried to submit a support ticket but that was asking for PC/MAC stuff which I do not have. The game kicks me out of my game as soon as I find one and saying I lost connection to server
