  • NguyenL68510041 Nguyen Ly (@NguyenL68510041) reported

    @CyberpunkGame @GoogleStadia My Overwatch sniper rifle is still just disappearing when I start the embers no turning back point. Unequipping or putting in stash before i start doesn't help. The weapon disappears. WHAT DO I DO?? please fix

  • VelvetYams Adrian the Ceo of Yiiktwt💽 (@VelvetYams) reported

    Also what streaming service has Overwatch?

  • JimmyKerrigan JimmyKerrigan (@JimmyKerrigan) reported

    @KehllyAbe @shea_mcvaney @TitanfallBlog If they did have a titanfall ultimate it would just be like Bob or Ashe’s ultimate from Overwatch. Not totally broken.

  • Hi_GoIdenness yechan luvr (real) ✦ (@Hi_GoIdenness) reported

    @BlizzardCS now tell me why I was suspended for 7 hours on overwatch im competitive for my internet lagging me out of the match this is the 3rd time it's happened I didn't do anything lololol I didn't willingly leave the match I got kicked . lol

  • Nitrexbs Nitrex :3 (@Nitrexbs) reported

    What I think about Brawl Talk - First new brawler is literally Ashe from Overwatch - Second new brawler is OP af - Replay system fix after 4 ******* years -Way too much new skins to buy :( -Stacked Brawl Pass 👍

  • yttriumlol Yttrium (@yttriumlol) reported

    @Poyo420_ yooo i'd happily play overwatch w you, tho i'm still on the **** laptop so i might be lagging pretty bad

  • HoshiBakaVtuber HoshiBaka | #ENVtuber | VA {Pre Debut} (@HoshiBakaVtuber) reported

    @rittan0x0 0-0 teach me Overwatch... I main Apex XD so Apex won't be a problem!

  • BoomedDump mentally_boomed’s info dump account (@BoomedDump) reported

    So far in the history of overwatch since brigs release, there has been a whole 2 months where brig bap or sigma wasnt meta, and even in those 2 months (og rein dva) the korean teams were playing sig bap instead of dva ana. How ******** is that not a problem.

  • oxtonbot lena (@oxtonbot) reported

    Had some Overwatch problems!

  • GelDanger danger_gel (@GelDanger) reported

    They say that the first part of having a problem is admitting that you have one. Playing Overwatch makes me sad, I’m trying so much to enjoy the game, but for now, it’s not working anymore. I always have this urge to play but it always ends the same way.

  • XxCHlLDSPLAYxX King $ummer is the final boss (@XxCHlLDSPLAYxX) reported

    i have a genuine problem with overwatch switching ashe’s original design to make her uber white as well as making mccree uber white for no reason like. two outlaws.....both are extremely white,,,like y’all couldn’t make mccree latino why exactly

  • SunSetSloth 💚Ćrøśśfädė💛 (@SunSetSloth) reported

    Plugged my laptop into ethernet so that I could play overwatch but it was mad lagging, if I can’t play overwatch anymore on my computer then what was the point? Very worried

  • squiddygamer LiangMi UK (@squiddygamer) reported

    @Azanian_Gamer @jetjevons @PaulTassi It that investment sink, happened to me for a while with overwatch, after certain time you have invested too much that you don't want to quit as then the time you spent it "lost", this is what all live service games try to make you think With GP it changed to me just having fun

  • DemShenanigans Cori (Demshenaniganss) (TDS⚡,BNN,C❄️N) (@DemShenanigans) reported

    In one season ALONE, sharing that my hardwired console, and PC, which only seemed to encounter issues with #overwatch #competitivemode while EVERYTHING worked fine non-stop that was also running. I provided error reports, ISP reports, all of it. This was in Dallas, TX. (2/12)

  • AliceKururin Alice Kusanagi 🐱 草薙ありす (@AliceKururin) reported

    So I played a bit of Overwatch a few days ago and I think the reason why I stopped playing is because my internet connection on my PS4 is atrocious. Keeps lagging every few seconds. I seriously need a new connection. That or I just give up and get the Switch version🙄

  • Galaxy20XX TheDarkestGalaxy (@Galaxy20XX) reported

    @PokemonLegacy6 All I know on Switch is that the Crash Bandicoot games on sale for that price theres also Overwatch but you probably played that

  • AWildSilas NONBINARY MUSLIM ART COMMUNIST (@AWildSilas) reported

    @Comrade_Yui Which streaming service provides Overwatch?

  • snaketale70 Snaketale70 (@snaketale70) reported

    @dock675 @THEZACH2 theres your problem man. overwatch has slowly become an equivalent to league of legends. personally i think its largely due to the metas being trash and essentially forcing the playerbase to play the BEST meta otherwise its just an instant shitshow from your teammates. no fun 😞

  • DrKashik Michael Akerman (@DrKashik) reported

    Then accused me of being a kid, which is like, nah bro, the issue is I'm an adult so this is the like 1 hour I get to play Overwatch, the expt card is up for like 2 days, and I'm not going to waste it watching what would be boring even if I was bored.

  • Brizzforshizz B-rizzle (@Brizzforshizz) reported

    @PaweSasko @elonmusk @PaweSasko have you heard about the glitch where when you get to the point of no return (final mission) your overwatch sniper disappears from your inventory. So you cant use it on the final missions. its my fav gun. plz fix!

  • GTElephant CrashTranslation (@GTElephant) reported

    They some of the worst examples of how the game has slid further toward a system of hard counters to specific heroes. The problem is the heroes people want to play and the heroes that counter them aren't the same. An Echo doesn't really counter another Echo. #Overwatch

  • solarsh0ckwave solardashockiestwave (@solarsh0ckwave) reported

    Just played a game of overwatch while still at the Home Screen saying loading game guess I just take the sr hit? Bro fix your game

  • CM1Tz Thomas Kench (@CM1Tz) reported

    When im playing Overwatch because siege is broken. thats when you know its actually broken.

  • RIPFerruxx ferr 🖤 (@RIPFerruxx) reported

    @McLandoTwitch More esports would need to have a structure like overwatch, which I personally don’t see an issue tbh would be super dope

  • engulfedby_____ Disciple_of_Ozjin (@engulfedby_____) reported

    Once I saw enough people say they didn't get owl tokens, I decided to look at something. At least with watching it on #Youtube , the answer might be because it was hit by #coppa . Might want to fix that @Blizzard_Ent @BlizzardCS . #Overwatch

  • dehellport Dehellport ʙʟᴍ | ACAB (@dehellport) reported

    Like when things get overwhelming in overwatch that’s understandable bc there’s something BIG happening in that moment 90% of the time. Same with tf2 but they fixed the issue of visual noise with really good color coding

  • MeowsterThe Meowster The (@MeowsterThe) reported

    To be fair, I met a lot of great people through the game, and I will still be playing it off and on, but for now, I want some space, Overwatch is a game I love, but like I said, the people playing it are the problem, and I realize that, so I'm going to try and move on

  • restart_kun Crest of Sloth (@restart_kun) reported

    @FatherGirth We really need a WT esports game lol The molds are already out there I think something like overwatch and apex. The only problem which even blizzard failed to address is ease to spectate games. Which is weird because for yrs cs:go has been a thing and i didn't hear such issues

  • Lunar_Lovely ✨ 🥀🏴Captain ACAB🥀🏴✨ (@Lunar_Lovely) reported

    Lrt my ex would spend literally hundreds on overwatch events i hate him lol but he clearly had a problem
