Overwatch 2 might be one of the biggest disappointments I’ve had with a game in awhile. It’s a broken mess that took away everything that was good about the first game in place of getting people to spend real money on things that should be free.

@Tzeriel Try renaming the Overwatch folder in Documents to force it to build a new folder. I've seen this work for some with the same issue. Also apparently some people have turned their anti virus off and that worked.

@BlizzardCS People are saying they are only missing certain skins and items but I literally am missing 99% of the stuff I had from overwatch 1. Do I just need to keep waiting for a fix or do I have to get additional help?

I've enjoyed Overwatch 2 when I've actually gotten the chance to play, but man has this launch been botched. Can't play with friends due to connection issues, their cosmetics and player rank are gone, and the game is bugged where I'm not receiving my Watchpoint pack.

hey @BlizzardCS - I didn’t see it on your known issue list, but are there problems with founders packs? All I got when I logged in was a notice that my old Overwatch 1 loot boxes auto-opened and that was it

Switching to 5v5, not allowing more than 1 tank, role queue existing at all. Overwatch 2 is the biggest L blizzard has conceived. It exists as blizzard surrendering to their bad design and not being willing or competent enough to fix it, so they instead remove options and fun

@rabidchapel apparently part of overwatch 2's new system to combat toxicity, players have to connect a phone number to their account in order to get verified. problem is, they say in their statement that they don't allow phone numbers from prepaid phone companies like cricket etc.

@ow2_status It's not Blizzard who I'm angry with. It's the people behind the DDoS attacks who I have anger towards Overwatch is one of those games that I find comfort with, even on the worst days But because of those guys Me and MANY people like myself don't even get to enjoy the game

The fact that Overwatch 2 is still not working is mind-boggling. It’s been almost a full day with no communication from Blizzard about what’s going on. #overwatch2 #OW2 #Blizzard

Overwatch 2 has been so fun. I waited in the 2000 player queue. Finally after waiting it made me login to BattleNet in order to play. After login, it told me it had to restart in order for it to add my account and now I am back in spot 2000 :)

Imagine waiting years, with no new content and a dying player base, just to sit in a broken queue/server system for the new overwatch game. What a joke

After further review of the situation, seems like Blizzard decided to launch Overwatch 2 on Solana considering the amount of network errors I’m seeing
