Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • PizzzaGuardian Slice of Destiny (@PizzzaGuardian) reported

    @reapzlbbh Overwatch heroes are so incoherent with eachother that at this point Overwatch 2 would have to be a clean slate rebuild just to fix the first games issues.

  • AwwPoor Aww poor thing (@AwwPoor) reported

    @AskPlayStation I'm on PS4, trying to connect to overwatch, it fails to connect and then it gives me that error. All connectivity is working fine outside of that

  • Unclerodney_ UncleRodney (@Unclerodney_) reported

    Overwatch. Fix how you do sr in comp. @PlayOverwatch I can’t have a positive record and be dropping. Like bro

  • th3numb3r1hero 𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙬𝙗𝙤𝙮✨ (@th3numb3r1hero) reported

    @clawthxrnee @clawthxrnee FIX YOUR PC I WANNA PLAY OVERWATCH

  • Musicality__Pro Musicality__ (@Musicality__Pro) reported

    @therealjanpiton No problem man! I’m sorry I haven’t been around much, busy with work and school and a new home and whatnot. Just downloaded Apex again, but also Overwatch. Hopefully we can chill and play some ****!

  • VictoriaIsBored VictoriaIsBored (@VictoriaIsBored) reported from Pomona, California

    I have such a problem with capturing likeness, that I don't let myself not draw the face of a person, unless the pose demands it. I switched to playing siege because I wanted to get better at fps games, because I can't accept being a support main in overwatch.

  • Carlsbef Carl Oscar (@Carlsbef) reported

    @Rainbow6Game You know what is a community issue? THE NEW UI! Is this some kind of overwatch clone?

  • mintyoongem tea⁷ (@mintyoongem) reported

    I tried downloading overwatch today but I can't login to my account 🥶

  • appleciderwitch yeah but (@appleciderwitch) reported

    Playing Overwatch when you have a problem with working memory is why I will straight up miss an ult going off because I GA'd to a teammate to heal them and then fly straight back into Hammond mines because I was unaware they were there

  • multiibebe Salena (@multiibebe) reported

    Pretty sure I got DDoS'd or whatever during an Overwatch game. Chilling in QP, dude gets absolutely pissed he kept dying to Hanzo headshots (but he was out of position as Ashe) and started to throw. Whatever, I didn't care. 2nd round the tanks and other --

  • Tsukinoizhou Yukina Kou 🇵🇸 (@Tsukinoizhou) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ You are the part of the problem with overwatch

  • bach2990 Son Bach Lieu (@bach2990) reported

    @owpathtopro there's a problem with the green dot on overwatch contenders site AGAIN.

  • InkedLuna sailor moon. (@InkedLuna) reported

    it's probably a good thing the internet is having an outage rn because i probably would've gotten on overwatch LMAO

  • garukkou Vale (@garukkou) reported

    @vusjibin I remember at one point in the t500 overwatch scene a lot of people swore off of caffeine after realizing that the crash was affecting them really harshly

  • itsginba angústia. (@itsginba) reported

    @Neqtuen this is a bug because it doesn’t do heal and overwatch needs to fix it very soon just like moira’s yellow damage thing 🙄

  • ManfromD ManfromDamascus (Commisions Open) (@ManfromD) reported

    I used to enjoy playing online. Then I could kinda feel like I was good. Thanks to @CenturyLink , this is my internet speed. IT TOOK 8HRS TO DOWNLOAD OVERWATCH, SEND SOME ONE HERE AND FIX IT, BAD ENOUGH I HAD TO LIVE WITH A DEMENTIA PATIENT WITH THIS ****

  • robert40712038 robert (@robert40712038) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent why is overwatch so trash right now man I have lost 15 games and only won 3 fix this ****

  • aurora_fall Night (@aurora_fall) reported

    Playing overwatch with a broken AC while being annoyed is the worst thing I could do

  • FrootyBunny Frooty (@FrootyBunny) reported

    Had to make a new instagram account due to people attempting to login to my old one; caused me to get temp banned. New one is FrootyBunnyOW :) #overwatch #overwatchleague #OWL2021

  • lth_rg Lth-RG (@lth_rg) reported

    @kaoruchisato The one problem I have with overwatch is that rather than learning how to counter certain characters abilities and strats, they just complain to Jeff and he just nerfs the hell outta them. But other than that it’s an okay game imho

  • PshyCover Pshy 🇵🇸 #SaveSheikhJarrah #SavePalastine (@PshyCover) reported

    @ImJustjun Idk but probably someone started it as a joke because they were thirsty for a hero's main then someone made an actual bad tier list as a joke then someone came in and said i will fix it but it was **** then people started making their own. BAM OVERWATCH CONTENT 2021

  • robotsnake20 Robo🐍 (@robotsnake20) reported

    @PushDustIn People I want: Excite bike Cooking mama Chun li Fortnite Rep (just because it would make people mad as hell) A Rabbit Yo-Kai Rep Funkey Kong Overwatch Rep Predictions: Crash Doom Guy Sora

  • ryujin3838 Ryujin3838 (aka Dragon) (@ryujin3838) reported

    Today’s the day. There’s no way we don’t get Smash. Here’s hoping: -Crash Bandicoot -Eggman -Sora -Rayman -Master Chief -a Tekken rep -an Overwatch rep -Doom Guy -Waluigi And we’re actually getting: -Gen 8 Pokémon -Jonesy - *insert in house rep* -*genuine surprise no 1 foresaw*

  • iAgent_Ash Agent_Ash (@iAgent_Ash) reported

    @Extravaganzazz @horrorvisuals Apparently, some actually can't. Are you familiar with the drama surrounding the Brigitte character in Overwatch? I **** you not, people kept harassing the voice actress behind her for the *gameplay* issues. I don't know what goes on in the heads of those people.

  • JamesOrHeaters A Temporary Suns fan. (@JamesOrHeaters) reported

    @ow_ego1 @EarthbenderRise @ATornado_OW No puts it's an org that has done so much to the overwatch community. Trash talking because an org had to disband because of covid and financial issues is sad as ****, to be honest. They really got nobody else to trash talk? All this just for a bit of negative attention

  • JCMarquezVOX J.C. Marquez Ⓥ (@JCMarquezVOX) reported

    Only one #SmashBrosUltimate DLC character left. Crash? Sora? Master Chief? An Overwatch or League of Legends rep?

  • Jayykkr Jay (@Jayykkr) reported

    anyone know where i can check my gpu usage for overwatch or however you call it cuz maybe its overwatch causing problems to my gpu temperature/usage

  • PmazingTTV Tyler (@PmazingTTV) reported

    @Rainbow6Game Fix the icons! It looks awful and the scoreboard looks like you are trying to copy the Overwatch design. What’s even the point in changing these things instead of focusing on bugs?!

  • Wow_Such_Gaming Wow Such Gaming (@Wow_Such_Gaming) reported

    @WiseFishGaming @Arrrrash My biggest pet peeve are people rubber banding controllers in games so they don't get autobooted, so they can get match XP, but become a useless teammate. Still don't know how that problem hasn't been fixed. Overwatch autokicks you if you haven't moved a few feet from spawn.

  • Unsure_Shpee Wash bucket (@Unsure_Shpee) reported

    thank you to Overwatch for randomly freezing even though I have never had this problem before until a few days ago
