Just noticed that apex has the same hero class issue that overwatch look like if you really want to play support or healer classes you should just play MMORPG and forget about popular games AKA shooters, therefore the ones that everyone is playing.

@Bearhuggerus @SmurferMatt overwatch also has the added issue where all skins are made for event purposes so they add the additional issue of time crunch which also push people to spend money or they miss out

Thinking about the size of the player base that overwatch still has even though it’s an objectively broken poorly balanced game and imagining if the balance team knew what they were doing. That **** would be the biggest game that there is fr fr

@andraydomise Only big problem with overwatch right now is the lack of crossplay.

We don't need a Civil War to solve the problems. We need the laws on the books to be PROPERLY ENFORCED at all times by some functioning form of OVERWATCH. SEND IN THE MARINES AND ARREST THE TRAITORS.

@SkullzCrushed @Romudeth Overwatch was released in May 2016. It had been out for a few months at that point. Think Titanfall 2's main issue was being released the week after Battlefield 1 and the week before Call Of Duty Infinite Warfare. It kinda got lost in the shuffle

@discord I'll post this again since nobody replied. When closing Overwatch while still streaming, my entire computer halts. It does not matter what I am streaming on my machine, it still crashes when closing Overwatch specifically. Any ideas how to fix this?

@PlayOverwatch Overwatch you need to fix your rank system in the last two days I have got mvp 3 times and each of those games I have spent 65% or more on fire. Then I preceded to lose 2/3 and my rank would drop 25-30 points but when I won it only went up 20-25 don’t punish me

-- November last year and since then I've seen no cinematics. No updates. And the only update we've had this year is a map and Echo. It feels like a live service game without the live service aspect. I still love Overwatch but it feels like the devs aren't doing anything--

@ElemixZero @NicouNetwork @d4ggerfish I think the issue is mainly that it's not regulated in the same way as gambling. Least when I watched videos on the topic that's been a core issue and why loot boxes in overwatch had a lawsuit and more are still ongoing in terms of loot boxes. Which are gatchas.

Has anyone had trouble installing Overwatch? I have tried installing multiple times but it just says 'calculating size' for hours on end and the support website isn't letting me send a message.

@SmurferMatt @RaiPhantom Exactly, that's why they are predatory. However when you literally cannot spend money on them, you just have the random stuff thrown at you for free ? I don't think it's really an issue. Like imagine Overwatch, except you can buy all the skins on top of lootboxes which 1/2
