  • guribotto 🏳️‍🌈 gay kate 🏳️‍🌈 (@guribotto) reported

    the problem with Splatoon 3 is that I'm bad at it in the same way that I'm bad at Overwatch or Halo but it somehow feels so much more demoralizing when the game is so cute

  • mulyuy the nanami agenda 🏳️‍⚧️ (@mulyuy) reported

  • joshsch19 josh schneider (@joshsch19) reported

    @Alpharad @gsmVoiD Morty is the new Bastion from Overwatch. No matter how much they try and nerf him, he will still be incredibly broken.

  • kkiv24 ّ (@kkiv24) reported

    @PlayOverwatch I cant login to overwatch 2 from my ps5. It have been 2 hours since i purched it and it keeps telling me “ login error, failed to connect to game server. Please try again later “

  • mogul_ts Uncle Mogi 🦈 (@mogul_ts) reported

    @Twlight05 Yeah I'm usually never a big fan of those type of physical boxes, Overwatch, Crash, and Spyro all did it

  • FlameKainz Kainz | Dragon vtuber 🐉🍷 - 2.0 COMING SOON! (@FlameKainz) reported

    17. I want to stream competitive games more actively, like overwatch, valorant or apex legends. Unfortunately i am currently experiencing a few tech issues and lag with my current setup when attempting to stream these games.

  • solidunicorn6 Daddy Hercules (@solidunicorn6) reported

    Or we could get a good player info panel? I mean overwatch dropped 3 years prior and still has a good career profile page. Only problem is people on private, but that way we could have what characters, guns, and teammates characters all layer out plus we could

  • BackupSio Sio but I got caught :( (@BackupSio) reported

    @mihsfortune Ya see, the problem with people claiming he “just wanted to duo” is that there would be plausible deniability for ANYONE who wasn’t the Andrew Tate of Overwatch himself Mikeyy Mouse

  • Sh1nmenT4kez0 Chito Vera Fanclub President (@Sh1nmenT4kez0) reported

    I don’t care about hot button issues like “student loans” I only care about playing Overwatch

  • FaucetSoap Easter (@FaucetSoap) reported

    @Seggstra2 @CuppaDeluxe @UBERSOY1 Here, and Overwatch became bad because the devs refused to fix their combat and server system, not because one character turned out to be gay

  • Kemmo_Ado ✨Kemmo✨ (@Kemmo_Ado) reported

    @emiliatheworst @BlissfulStatic @Drix1108 Oh ok that’s reasonable Personally I have like 200+ or so hours on it, I spent longer on other games like Overwatch like close to 2K hours but splatoon has problems like the weak bet code that bans you for like 5 minutes, unskipable news section, 1/2

  • Spookyminxy Jessica (@Spookyminxy) reported

    Unfortunately I going to have to cancel tonight's and Sunday's stream. I seem to have some issues I need to address with my doctor on Tuesday but you can check my other gameplays such as The Quarry and Overwatch.

  • PsstPerry Uncle Iroh’s Nephew (@PsstPerry) reported

    @BlizzardCS Can’t experience issues if I can’t even play. Fix ps5 overwatch beta

  • scienceninjagal Dr Meg Pusey (@scienceninjagal) reported

    @ChronoJoe @Steve_Bromley What about for online/in-service games? E.g. Destiny, Overwatch, League etc? Maybe not designing for you as an individual, but listening to the community as a whole?

  • TheAaronLad Aaron (@TheAaronLad) reported

    @Stallion83 I found a fix through reddit for that bullshit load any game that isn't series x/s enhanced such as overwatch or red dead redemption 2 or like ac rogue, just using games I've used as examples, literally loading it is enough (as long you get off the splash screen) then quit it.

  • ihyAzula 𝒶𝓏𝓊𝓁𝒶 ♡ (@ihyAzula) reported

    you can tell a lot about someone’s overwatch rank by whether or not they think doomfist is broken

  • s7tosugu dyl! (@s7tosugu) reported

    my playstation is lagging so bad GIRL!!! let me play overwatch I need to make sure everyone else knows I kick *** as Soldier and suck *** at the rest of the roster

  • garretttrp2 🇺🇦 (@garretttrp2) reported

    it reminds me of overwatch for gameplay (obviously not *just* that alone) and update cycles, but it wins not having content slowdowns, bad additions or problems otherwise that ow had - i haven't seen anywhere near as much complaining as i was expecting compared to things like it

  • Afran_OW Afran (@Afran_OW) reported

    anybody else getting insane lag spikes and just unable to play cause ping is just spiking? (on overwatch)

  • PlayerTwo_Start PlayerTwoStart (@PlayerTwo_Start) reported

    @adventure_rules Hm, my average has been about 30 seconds to a minute. 3-5 minutes isn't unheard of in stuff like Overwatch (depending on the role you pick), but Splatoon tends to be quick. I'm wondering if maybe it's having trouble finding teammates?

  • Teh_Specter Noctis (@Teh_Specter) reported

    Sure no one is going to care about my bitching which is fine. But ffs this game is broken on so many levels. My win/loss record is bad because partly to me yes having bad days, but a majority of my losses comes from terrible healing and tanks. **** you overwatch. Overrated pos.

  • Arsynyst_ Arsynyst (@Arsynyst_) reported

    Junkrat is the most broken hero in Overwatch. No skill spam, One shot at any range, fly around the map no problem, 1 shot any hero with a super that takes no skill, and he gets kills from dying. Blizzard is so bad at balancing, just buff Widow and Tracer they're so bad.

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN I cant login to overwatch 2 from my ps5. It have been 2 hours since i purched it and it keeps telling me “ login error, failed to connect to game server. Please try again later “

  • rando9292 Chad Chiaki enjoyer (Rando) (@rando9292) reported

    @amv_society @_XboxNews Your not wrong but same could be said for all future Bethesda games or probably a lot of Activision Blizzard franchises (crash, spyro, prototype, Tony hawk, diablo, overwatch, warcraft, starcraft, ect.) or other companies because they are probably not done after Activision
