@IchibanTheOne I havnt seen anyone say much about the Overwatch 2 thing, or maybe I have missed it. But I found it annoying af especially since I’ve had the same number for like 24 years. I worked out the problem I had two accounts both same phone number. Had to delete one etc.

@Sketch1293 @SYACVG Depends if casual matches determine competitive placement It sounds like more work, but idk what lengths people will go to for the sake of griefing. The original overwatch had this problem a lot, even though it wasn't a free game.

Congratulations Overwatch. You've successfully ruined everything about this game and the release is inexcusable. I'm about to uninstall permanently if you can't fix your ****. Thanks for locking my characters for, idk, the 4th day now? Login issues again as well. Sad.

If you login to Overwatch 2 tonight, don’t be shocked that almost all the characters are locked again. Even if you have the accounts merged lol. 🤯 — I’m assuming it’s a bug so it’ll be fixed soon I hope.
