@BlizzardCS I went into comp and was hit with an “applying update” screen on Overwatch. Just saw someone else with the same problem. I was banned for an entire hour and I couldn’t exit or, nor join the match. This is going to affect my ranking and I can’t do anything about it.

@KoolyBoss @BURIJlTTO @OverwatchNaeri I think a charge will not affect too much the healing, because there is other healer in the team, and the main problem of her big dmg is she can spam 3 shots with scope and kill most of overwatch roster with no difficult

So Overwatch 2 Season 1 strained my ability to enjoy the game with totally broken comp matchmaking, bad hero balance choices, server issues, bugs and general issues, disconnects, etc.. S2 is somehow even worse. Folks are now mad on many different fronts regarding the game.

@PlayOverwatch please fix play of the game. It was way better in overwatch 1 now I'm seeing all the time double kills over tripple ult kills. why is this? The doubles may have been headsets I'm not sure but still a tripple ult is better. And looks way cooler. Please fix.

@PlayOverwatch why does overwatch 2 such? Bring back Jeff calling. Everything you do seems like your intentions are to run this great game. We don't even have a choice to play overwatch 1 which was so much better. Fix this game please have over 1000 hours invested.

@KikoScythe @WarnTV You know most people can’t even get the hook one shot. Overwatch never even made a change for hog since season 1 but y’all start complaining about him this seasons? Sounds like y’all just getting skill diff by good hog players. I have no problem going against hog as ana/ orisa

@Blizzard_Ent how in gods name do you manage to give people negative currency in overwatch 2? you realise how bad this is for f2p players?? it takes months to grind up to get an epic skin, and you’re forcing them to grind it out to get back into positive values?? fix the game

@DestinyTheGame PvP still broken. No skill. Just OP builds and weapons. Warlocks with overwatch sentry turrets and healing every 5 seconds. Hunters invisible 90% of the time and can't be killed while dodging. Destiny PvP is just people shooting and then running like *******.

@AcidQueenOW I'm glad I'm not the only one having these issues, I thought it was my internet but I never dc in anything else. Overwatch disconnects me about 3-5 times a day it's crazy

@GameSpot After that flop quick cash grab that was Overwatch 2 I don't know.. Not too many Elden Rings out there these days. (In terms of quality just look at Saints Row 4 RE-Elected (recently made remastered port for PC) Is right now botched and what was a working game is now broken.)

@Surefour In a game where you can swap heroes? Definitely not. There exists no drafting phase for overwatch, and seeing how the game can be glorified rock paper scissors, you're not just banning problems, you're also banning the solutions. The meta would be as stale as it is now.

(@danieldzbo) reported
I’m done with overwatch. Tons of leavers in every match, broken matchmaking, awful dps players blaming support for dealing more damage than them while also healing a lot. Overpriced cosmetics and few to no rewards for playing events, etc. F2P = quantity > quality

As a fellow long time call of duty player... I have decided not to play warzone till they decide to fix the game and bring back rebirth. Warzone 2 has made me lost interest. So.. I deleted the game. I got apex, overwatch, fork knife, etc. To play. Will be missed 😔.

@Mercy1onetrick @OWAnonymous_ It was a bug, which they have a page on on their bug report that is now locked because they decided they weren't going to fix it. One of many reasons why I am done playing Overwatch after this season. The Devs don't give a singular crap about their playerbase.
