Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ChilibuxG ChiliBuX Gaming (@ChilibuxG) reported

    @IGN Who care about Xbox? And who really care about Activision? Their portfolio is ****. Wow is done. StarCraft done. Diablo done. Overwatch done. CoD used to be good before they got so greedy they releas 3 games a year. Bethesda makes broken games. Xbox has not won anything.

  • Iyxon Iyxon (@Iyxon) reported

    @DBMalachite those 18+ naked mercy glitch tinder overwatch lobbies were NOT WORKING so i had to do the nuclear option.. mb.......

  • sociallynomadic Chris (@sociallynomadic) reported

    @Colteastwood I think COD, Spyro and Crash (less so Spyro) will be multi platform. Overwatch and the other franchises no. Maybe THPS as well…

  • Djaym0 Daryn Modien 🇨🇦 (@Djaym0) reported

    @SolidMali @JanDavidHassel @BenjiSales i guess 1. it depends on when the sony/cod marketing deal expires. and 2. how integrated overwatch and overwatch 2 are between platforms. might run into some issues there. but how long the xbox/activsion deal takes will be the bigger factor. if it takes a year to close..

  • Waffle_64 🧇Waffle🧇 (@Waffle_64) reported

    Last year, @niandra_ let everybody know that Pride content was slated to come to Overwatch. In the end we got a player icon. ...Did Bobby Kotick have anything to do with that, or is that one on the dev team? Would be a lot less frustrating if it turned out he was the problem.

  • justshadow28 Esteban (@justshadow28) reported

    @xgreen360 @CarterVettel @IGN This is the dumbest deal they can do, what are you on about. Cod, overwatch and Diablo ain’t nowhere near worth the trouble to make this deal. Be real now.

  • RillaKurai Rilla, Thorn Of The Dusk Rose (@RillaKurai) reported

    @GFuelEnergy Overwatch is dead lmao, Call of duty has become dogshit, Spyro and crash haven't come out with a game in like 2 years that weren't remakes. Damn, they definitely won lmao anyways just get a PC to play all of those games.

  • Crusanerd Cole (@Crusanerd) reported

    @klobrille World of Warcraft on Xbox, Overwatch 2 correcting its course and being exclusive, Beenox (a superhero game studio) under our roof, Spyro and Crash being Xbox mascots now, Call of Duty not having time pressure on it and sucking up great studios as support, the pros list goes on...

  • ChrisBottger Chris Bottger (@ChrisBottger) reported

    It occurs to me that Microsoft now owns Halo, Call of Duty, Overwatch, and Doom. All the big FPS under one roof. (Also I imagine that the Crash Bandicoot probably won't be on PlayStation again for a while.)

  • xUnder_ Under BE (@xUnder_) reported

    Microsoft owns Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, CoD, Elder Scrolls, Dishonored, Fallout, Doom, Minecraft, World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Starfield, Death Loop, Tony Hawk, Prototype and more from 3 acquisitions in 2014, 2020, and 2022.

  • DJK1NG_Gaming DJK1NG_Gaming - Ayakashi Triangle 🔥! 🇭🇹 (@DJK1NG_Gaming) reported

    @CrispsCold @shinobi602 Taking Activision and Blizzard away means nothing to Nintendo. They barely got the Crash and Spyro remakes. And Overwatch 1 and 2 are the other two. Barely anything worth it.

  • StarkyLuv73 Aaron T. Starks 🌊 (@StarkyLuv73) reported

    What’s weird about the Activision acquisition is that there’s not a single current franchise that I play outside of Destiny. All the games I want, they don’t make anymore. I don’t play CoD or WoW or Crash or Overwatch. Really doesn’t affect me at the moment.

  • KatzetheGod KatzetheDragonGod (@KatzetheGod) reported

    @jordanwilgroove @IGN Honestly, I'm not to worried about Crash and Spyro. I don't see them being exclusive cause they don't constantly haul big bucks. Will they make cod exclusive, maybe some, not all. That's a huge playerbase to be cut off. Overwatch probably will become exclusive. It just depends.

  • JoshingCarter Josh Carter (@JoshingCarter) reported

    With the IP's Microsoft is about to own they should commission Rare (the developers of Diddy Kong Racing) to make an Xbox/PC arcadey kart racer... They could use Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Diablo, Overwatch characters + Banjo-Kazooie, Conker, Minecraft's Steve, etc. Could be sweet

  • dannygilbert05 danny 🇩🇰 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@dannygilbert05) reported

    @blandy_1010 if its overwatch % that keeps spiking then its a hardware problem

  • StillFizz Fizz-sama™ - Divide My Heart (@StillFizz) reported

    @TheDreadfulLord @JayRembert2 @DestinLegarie Make crash and spyro and whatever else exclusive. But Overwatch and COD should stay multiplat. That's my stance.

  • ValhallaOutcast ValhallaOutcast 🇨🇦 (@ValhallaOutcast) reported

    @JMaine518 its the only part of the deal they care about, they don't even know what a Warcraft or StarCraft is lol Maybe Overwatch a little but not even sure about that I would love to see a pie chart of COD overall revenue include MTX broken down by platform

  • wimpdragon Chris Hancock (@wimpdragon) reported

    @EscoAlmighty @Just_Gaming4Fun Diablo declined? There hasn't been a new entry since 3, and that's still played to this day. There's alot of Hype for Diablo 4. Honestly, cod being exclusive would be the last thing I care about personally. Diablo, Overwatch, Spyro, Crash, etc are the real losses for ps

  • rando9292 rando (@rando9292) reported

    @thejrbc "They don't offer a lot of big titles" CoD casually being the best selling game almost every year Crash and Spyro casually being the old Sony mascots Overwatch casually being one of the biggest multi player shooter series Blizzard casually owning some of the most iconic PC games

  • Npn763 Napan (@Npn763) reported

    @TWTHEREDDRAGON That depends on which game is being exclusive is it cod yes that would effect but crash or spyro or tony hawk being exclusive wont affect the buisness cod warzone overwatch diablo are the ones that would affect mostly rest can be exclusive

  • seanmcbay_ sean (@seanmcbay_) reported

    I'm excited for Overwatch 2 which I would have bought anyway and it'll be nice not needing to pay for future Crash and Spyro games but other than that this doesn't interest me much.

  • indie_xbox Xbox Indie Gamer (@indie_xbox) reported

    @Romudeth Maybe, we can’t say for certain until Microsoft makes a statement. I’d like to see some Activision games be exclusive like Overwatch, Prototype, Spyro and more but maybe Crash and COD be multi platform

  • GageWrites Gage J. Tolin (@GageWrites) reported

    @SjwSpiderman They said that COD is the only big franchise that Activision Blizzard owns, as if WOW, Diablo, and Overwatch don't exist. Yeah, like you said, if the exclusivity were an issue then Nintendo would be in trouble; heck, maybe even Sony would.

  • WhoIzAziz Aziz (@WhoIzAziz) reported

    @DanVMaul @JezCorden I agree The purchase is not bad, in the sense that COD, Overwatch (I'm a fan of shooters in general), crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Tony Hawk day one on GamePass is really cool But all those games from Ubisoft I listed being exclusive and GP is on another level. ANOTHER LEVEL

  • NickGjerde Nick Gjerde (@NickGjerde) reported

    I think Overwatch is the only place someone can call you a broken character and it's a compliment.

  • RealBenGilbert Ben Gilbert (@RealBenGilbert) reported

    @tha_rami Maybe if he were better at managing Blizzard, actually taking care of the major cultural issues, then Diablo 4 and Overwatch 2 would already be out. Maybe if he had been more on top of those issues, he wouldn't have to sell ATVI and quietly leave out the side door.

  • legbonejones Leg Bone Jones (@legbonejones) reported

    @foxygames_uk Doubt law makers would allow for COD to be exclusive but I can see overwatch and crash bandicoot etc

  • highlan07144277 highlander (@highlan07144277) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN Please sort out the issues with CTF Blitz on Overwatch. There needs to be tougher penalties to players who leave games early. It is ruining the fun of the game.

  • NickGjerde Nick Gjerde (@NickGjerde) reported

    I think Overwatch is the only place someone can call you a broken character and it can be taken as a compliment.

  • TevesTV Teves (@TevesTV) reported

    @darlingmydearly I think Overwatch has potential to make a comeback now with better management tbh. Once they get rid of Kotick and the other problems from blizzard. Microsoft will likely put more into OW2 to try and win the hearts of the players and have everyone be happy about the acquisition.
