@RoyalKats_ It's like people are unhappy with the concept of the game, some were complaining that abilities are broken and others that the gunplay was unfair. To which I say, ***** go play ******* overwatch or csgo. I'm a hundred percent sure they'd be happy to have you. literal oneheads

@unclebotter I am having all kinds of issues with my GPU. It crashes on some games but not others, mainly FFXIV/Overwatch/A Hat In Time(for some god forsaken reason) and I can't figure out what is wrong. Laptop btw.

@dazza1179 I have to say it's been a while that I have played console. Last thing I played on console was overwatch and don't remember having this issue. But I replayed HZD on pc with 60fps and I basically grinded the story out in 3 days with 30h playing again. No issues.

@CINC_W_Bane I had this problem so many times in Overwatch, except it was my Xbox disconnecting from the WiFi constantly.

i don't like fighting games because i don't have a competitive spirit but also because i don't find colorful but interchangeable characters who are primarily defined by gameplay mechanics very stimulating. i played overwatch cause it had a coop element but i had the same issue

When I first started playing Overwatch, I placed 2017 SR while not knowing how sensitivity worked. I would randomly turn it it up to like 70 sens becauae i thought "higher = better". I did not fix this issue until I was over level 200. I never dropped below Gold once.

Overwatch Content Creators: “This game sucks, nerf this. Change this. He/She offended me. Omg this game is UN-playable. Blizzard fix this game!” Me: “How bout you just shut ******** up or go find another game to be good at? What kinda weirdo keeps playing a game they hate?”

@MemeDaddyBae @Spartan Overwatch had the same problem. Who do you listen to? The fraction of a percent at top level play, and ruin the feel for the rest? Or the 99.9% and ruin pro play? They have to just pick one, it doesn't matter which. Middle of the road or silence hurts everyone.

@Haider83207270 @PlayOverwatch Then people would just purposely lag out all the time. And overwatch is nearly impossible to win a 5v6 , but on apex you can still do decently well if you lose one. It’s not that difficult to understand.

@Naito_Shade The problem is that overwatch has had no update for 2 years, almost 3 years. 0 map, 0 heroes. More and more players leave overwatch

Lore with Laurence 💙
(@volskayadottxt) reported
However, this creates a problem: it doesn't align with the perpetually angry, hellbent on revenge iteration of Reaper. Heck, if Gabe's actions during Retribution and Uprising are aligned with current canon, him destroying Overwatch in a coup doesn't make sense. (6/?)

(3) it just feels lackluster, though I’m still appreciative some loose ends from bastet were *******, there’s still a screaming issue there that I wish we could have answers to. When did Gabriel Reyes fall off the deep end, and what did Overwatch do to cause such hatred?

There is so much hype around Overwatch 2, I am excited too, but it can have all the hype in the world and still end up a disappointment because they did not fix the -existing- issues in Overwatch 1, so it's going to be a new game with the same problems.

@DiamondOfDirt @haloofthoughts the more attractive it becomes and overwatch, despite what anyone says, is an abandoned gold mine of a franchise. I think there is microtransactions potential, I think having it on gamepass will be beneficial. So it really benefits them to have a live service game.

@korenuwu Yeah, Overwatch had a lot of problems that brought it down in the end. Pretty sad.

Okay change of plans. No stream tonight. My PC is having issues where mid game it will drop from 60 to 25 frames randomly and without warning making Overwatch almost unplayable. Sorry guys.

@Bixby201 @Shpeshal_Nick Dude Xbox literally took away all of Bethesda and all of Activision/Blizzard minus COD/Overwatch from Playstation Even if SF6 is exclusive (not confirmed) where gonna compare FF/SF6 to Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Doom, Starfield, Crash, Spyro, Tony Hawk, Wolfenstein, Blizzard etc ?

@maethrilllian I don’t have that problem anymore, I play Halo, Destiny, COD, Overwatch, Titanfall2. That was a problem that I had and for unknown reason, playing Titanfall just helped me. 👍🏻

Please fix overwatch @CSGO @valvesoftware 1- Play after 2 months, **** matchmaking, gets matched against SMFC while being unranked (previously GNM) 2- Get destroyed, 3 kills in 8 rounds. 1 teammate abandons and we surrender. Went afk for 1 round since the opponents too pro.

(@pulse_rifle) reported
@DiamondOfDirt @haloofthoughts I mean, I don't think its a balance issue at all. Firstly, the players took the game to places the devs never foresaw but the issue has always been the content. Fortnite redefined live service games and overwatch has just not caught up. Even with mediocre balance more content

@Archer_0W @anonymousOW If it's broken and it has been in the game for ages that doesn't make it any better it only makes it worse, but honestly I'm not going to complain as long as it's fixed for overwatch 2
