The Overwatch 2 server issues today feel like straight ground hog day. I really had hope that it would be at least a little bit better.

@PlayOverwatch **** PR team, how can you have all these launch issue continuing into day TWO and not give any updates on the status???? #Overwatch2 #overwatch @BlizzardCS

@Qwik Fix overwatch 🤨

Dribzz (@Dribzz) reported
@OverwatchEU @BlizzardCSEU_EN There's also an issue where you can't invite friends to your group. The error says something along the lines of "this person is playing a different version of overwatch". Fingers crossed this will all be sorted soon!

CJ (@Halleyspilot) reported
@SonicFox @AskPlayStation Seems like there might be a network load issue cause of the overwatch 2 launch

Why doesn't the Overwatch 2 devs just pair servers by region temporarily. Yes it may alienate some players but they can fix the server issue while we all have fun playing. Then put it back the way it was

Love that as both an Overwatch player and someone with a Cricket phone plan, I’m apparently not going to be able to play Overwatch 2 because of my phone service provider. Can we please fix this @BlizzardCS ?

Joshua Lagrange (@jlagrange87) reported
@PlayOverwatch Overwatch 2 has much bigger problems than the servers. Gutted UI, janky audio, lack of visual queues for damage and heals, the response and time between abilities is different, no progression, no comp rank to show off to other people, etc. It feels and plays wrong.

@aaronkellerOW "DDoS" attacks are your users trying to log in. I'll be honest in my thinking, either a) you did not prepare b) it is DDoS attack that somehow starts at 18:00 CET I think the Overwatch team is the last one to blame here, the corporate mess there seems tangible.

NOT EVEN THE LEAGUES CAN GET IN? YOU GOTTA FIX SOMETHING OVERWATCH PLEASE

???? is anybody else having the issue where a bunch of heroes in overwatch 2 are locked but you're not a new player???

@MikaMelatika "Overwatch 2: Unable to log you in" is my favourite game, right after "Overwatch 2: Unexpected server error occurred"

king boi (@Kingboi12341) reported
@Skarmad21 Yeah I feel like it’ll calm down here in about a week, it sucks that the players have to deal with ddos on the first day of launch, but the overwatch developers will fix the problem, I’m not too worried, I’m sure not too many people will leave because of this, it’ll be all good
-
Jack (@JackieChann87) reported
@OverwatchEU @BlizzardCSEU_EN Things would probably be going smoother if overwatch wasn’t shutdown. That could probably be part of the reason why many people don’t have their stuff. Just an idea, but if overwatch was put back up, maybe half the problems would disappear no..?
-
king boi (@Kingboi12341) reported
@Skarmad21 I’m excited to play though, did you get all of your stuff transferred from overwatch 1 to overwatch 2 when I got on the game it made me restart everything, I’ve been hearing it’s a bug because of the ddos situation?
-

Overwatch 2’s ‘DDOS’ attack is a front they can’t handle
-
MagicStu (@realmagicstu) reported
@Qwik Biased towards bigger streamers who have no issues logging in. This shouldn’t of been f2p, should’ve been paid version like normal overwatch 1 was.
-
Harrison Young (@harri_g_young) reported
Overwatch 2's success kind of hinged on this launch going without a hitch, but this is one of the worst game launches in recent memory. A DDoS attack is certainly not avoidable, but there are countermeasures. To see servers still in a sad state a day later is disheartening.

@Qwik can u fix the overwatch 2 servers
-
Shadow (@Shadows_Lies) reported
@BlizzardCS 2/2 On consoles as I mostly have friends who play on PC but my PC isn't good enough for OW2 In my opinion but again just any conformation that it telling me to buy Overwatch on console when the game is F2P would be amazing as I really rather play on my Series S over a lag fest PC
