@XboxP3 Please put some kinda of system in place after you become CEO of acti blizz to fight the massive problem of alt accounts of higher rank players abusing the MMR in Overwatch, has been going on for years and continues to get worse and the OW team or Bobby refuse to fix it.

@ursaltysupport @PlayOverwatch Yeah that’s the thing, Overwatch kinda had its time back in 2016 to let’s say 2018? That was the golden age of Overwatch, no problems and it was just at the top of being a really good FPS game. But I just hoping for 2023 to be better for the game.

@ReviceRex @ZenofyMedia @PlayOverwatch Also to add that cosmetics have been the only consistent game updates we’ve had over the past two years, and now we’re not even getting that, overwatch is truely a dead game. Can’t wait for Microsoft to fix blizzards ****

@OwnTheFloat I’m liking what they’re doing with Overwatch. Seems like a unique service. It probably won’t be as high-margin as the actual tech itself, but I see a real need from SMBs. Plus it seems like their global systems integration department can deliver services at competitive prices.

@gredinx @Nurbzwax Overwatch sucks lol Like, at this point just admit that there is a personal reason why you see adding basic muscles to women as an issue

It's very easy to detect when an application is being imaged, at least on Windows. Overwatch detects this and issues a "screen-lock". Which just returns a black screen whenever any non-whitelisted application tries to image the client. Valorant detects this too.

No Clue what’s going on with my wifi at the moment - seems to be working normally (50mbs download), but whenever it go into a multiplayer game like overwatch or DBD, nothing seems to work (200 ping) @bt_uk only came out last week to fix an issue, so i don’t know what’s going on…

A little context. I'm playing role que and everything's going fine. Next thing I know, I'm lagging hard and I get disconnected. I finally get back into the game, and I get disconnected from the server AGAIN with a 20 minute ban from role queuing competitive. Wtf overwatch?

@PlayOverwatch Even if some of y play overwatch, maybe y'all should stop being so spoilt or ungrateful, and yes the pandemic is only 15% of reason, as not many give a **** about it now, or won't do, but they're in all these issues, as blizzard (ik OW team was furthest from it) >

@CX316 @SkillUpYT @ConfusedRealm Its the same problem as the Ship of Theseus. Its Blizzard only in name. The people who made those games are gone. Recent Blizzard is Warcraft Reforged, Shadowlands and Overwatch lootboxes.

@Mx51705 @OverwatchGG I have no problem with what people say to me. But um your argument kinda implodes on itself If real life is worse than overwatch why do you give a **** about someone's rank? Or why care enough to say something that could be hurtful?

@PlayOverwatch The issues being the lawsuit, but at the same time, they're trying to do (Overwatch ofc) their best to make what's best for us all, sometimes you just have to appreciate what they make and provide us with, or think.. if they didn't exist where would I be..

@Dom_Sacco @MonteCristo I feel like another issue is people not reporting in game - I know this is something that the Overwatch team have talked about before - they NEED you to report bad actors to actually get them... AND reporting works!! I've received over 100 confirmations on action taken from mine

It looks like #Overwatch is making an influencer push to get people to play the game again, but stale and broken mechanics need to be fixed first… also the community is beyond toxic 🤢

@chrisllmao @vigilante109 @_Tom_Henderson_ - Iron Sight - TF2 - Counter-Strike - Overwatch 2 (Retains all items from first game) - Diablo 3 - PUBG and it's many spin offs - DOTA - Combat Arms - Crossfire Each had sequels, service changes or engine upgrades. I could go on, there's plenty more.

@Sash0524 @RoelYento @TheMaverickWS I bet you more people played Overwatch than Halo Infinite. Their IP is worth a fortune, they just haven't been innovating enough and have horribly mismanaged their titles. Microsoft can fix both of those problems.

@jigs_vt Typically, most Overwatch players just have issues with positioning. If this is not your case, and your heals are constantly going off, then it's not your fault. So flame your team for roasting you (If you have the confidence or even care enough to reply to them)
