    If god is omnibeneveleant then why does my pc crash when I try to launch overwatch 2

  • Hon3y_Butt3r HON3Y BUTT3R (@Hon3y_Butt3r) reported

    @FroggerOW Lucky you can play. I have yet to have had the chance to play overwatch 2 since the official release date (Oct. 4th) EVERYDAY I’m still getting a blank breaking news box and error code LC - 208

  • The_Carolean 🇮🇪Caro🇮🇪 (@The_Carolean) reported

    Just a reminder, #Overwatch2 's overpriced cosmetics aren't an OW exclusive issue, they're around the same price as most of Fortnite's cosmetics, the issue is because Overwatch 1's monetisation was so generous it makes the ****** system that is "AAA" monetization more apparent.

  • MichMammoliti MM (@MichMammoliti) reported

    @EirikaMvP @FroggerOW Isn't SBMM solving the issue? Why do we have a ranked mode? Overwatch, like Valorant, is a competitive game. Experienced players will hit headshots more consistently. Again, Sojourn is not the problem. It's the game that made headshots more accessible.

  • KivTheHuman KivTheHuman (@KivTheHuman) reported

    Not to say Overwatch is above criticism. It has its problems for sure especially in terms of current balance. But people acting like this meta has been stale for a decade when the game is just over a month old. Or how they hate matchmaking now as if it's any worse than OW1 🥴

  • Unknow3nSoldi3r Unknow3n (@Unknow3nSoldi3r) reported

    If you leave your team in overwatch, you’re the problem, you’re the problem, AND you’re the problem

  • TheExCount TheExCount | eternal pre-debut vtuber (@TheExCount) reported

    There's some bug in #Overwatch that just blacks out your screen and as far as I can tell the only way to fix it is to alt+f4 and restart the game. So anyway I've got a temp ban from Overwatch due to having to restart because my comp match was literally just a black screen

  • chefmatcha matcha (@chefmatcha) reported

    I haven’t felt like playing overwatch in a min. The matchmaking for comp is so broken 😞

  • Blant14 blantm14 (@Blant14) reported

    @extremetito @FroggerOW Then why in top 500 almost EVERY team has a soujourn. Also did ya catch any Overwatch league recently ya know the one character that was always ALWAYS picked? It was sojourn crazy huh so no you are wrong she is a problem she is a huge problem

  • Hon3y_Butt3r HON3Y BUTT3R (@Hon3y_Butt3r) reported

    @BlizzardCS LC -208 Error Code and a blank breaking news box EVERYDAY since the official release date. Just FIX your 💩 and get it right, instead of throwing in the possibility of being hacked. Blizzard, you are a major let down for Overwatch 2.

  • freakyfred44 . (@freakyfred44) reported

    load into overwatch game play with all 5 for 1 minute person leaves no match cancel player joins back right before we can disconnect without penalty stays until they push the cart further than leaves again epic game sick system ******* disgusting ****** developers donkeys

  • Big7pointer big7pointer (@Big7pointer) reported

    @YoungJames34 @ItsSomjuu I mean it do be live service. Why are overwatch players so goddamn impatient. It literally takes a little over a month to make balance changes and they're losing their mind. Idk what they would do if they were playing a fighting game. Might not survive.

  • Wolfie_365 Wolfie (@Wolfie_365) reported

  • xHoneydukes Honeydukes (@xHoneydukes) reported

    @BlizzardCS got this error twice today while playing Competitive Overwatch 2 on PS4. Server closed due to an unexpected error. Does it affect my ranking??

  • moshipsword Blake Durnell (@moshipsword) reported

    @DebbieDrangus @MorganTan03 @DpsDeku The big thing with bringing down from 6v6 to 5v5 is to make everyone life more valuable in overwatch 1 you could lose 1 tank and then get steam rolled in 5v5 losing one person isn't the end could they have fix 6v6 maybe but doing that with 2 tanks would have been way harder

  • mgdougal1888 Definelty not Robert mgdougal (@mgdougal1888) reported

    @PlayOverwatch why ******** can you not join back a game if you leave/lag out on ranked what a ******* stupid team youse have working for youse learn from other games and why they are more successful than yours what a hunk of junk overwatch is 👍

  • STYLOUTSYDE Mal🎈 (@STYLOUTSYDE) reported

    My problems with Overwatch 1. It seems for some reason the game is just god awful if you’re not playing with your friends 2. No real incentive to play cause you can’t even see your level or rank. 3. Tanks are unseriously invincible I get it’s only one tank but still.

  • do_kkir Jun (@do_kkir) reported

    Dude overwatch 2 need to patch up or whatever, fix it

  • NukaSyd Syd (@NukaSyd) reported

    Can Blizzard fix the Overwatch rank system. There’s no way I can win 28 games in a row to get out of Bronze 5 and I don’t see a point in playing anymore when I’m trying to grind out 7 wins and have a few losses in a row bc I know I won’t rank up due to those losses.
