    @PlayApex @Respawn I love your game, but you guys really have no excuse for not bringing full account merging into Apex. I've just completed a straightforward process of merging my old PlayStation Overwatch account with my new Xbox account, and it worked no problem. No excuses.

    the lag in overwatch 2 is unreal, everyone is spazzing out everywhere in the map

  • DualshockDreams Dualshocks and Daydreams 🎃 (@DualshockDreams) reported

    Currently doing a little writing and video work on something Overwatch 2 related. I'd like to note I think the game plays well, didn't seem janky, and I personally didn't have many server problems. But my lord, setting up a Battlenet account? Well, you'll see. #Overwatch2

  • PikaSkywalker him (@PikaSkywalker) reported

    FIX YOUR ******* GAME OVERWATCH, JUST KEEP ******* DISCONNECTING ME FROM RANKED MATCHES

  • Nikomicam Hantu (@Nikomicam) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent fix ur Overwatch two phone issues or go bankrupt. It’s so dum your shutting out millions of people who want to play just because you want to keep bad people out. If this isn’t fixed soon people won’t be participating in your game at all. So respectfully fix ur ****

  • hutaofriend moominmimi (@hutaofriend) reported

  • uhhjames7 James👻 (@uhhjames7) reported

  • CamBamLowMan CamBamtheLowMan (@CamBamLowMan) reported

    @JWantedL Just what until the hype wears off in a couple months and you realize the game has all the same problems as pre update Overwatch.

  • nvincarnate NV Versus (@nvincarnate) reported

    Notice how fighting games that are good don't make players unlock characters through content anymore. It just manifests problems. Paying $40 for Overwatch 1 characters is insulting.

  • onilugs Seb (@onilugs) reported

    overwatch 2 is plagued with the same issues as overwatch 1: no matter what, you will always get queue with a DPS who has a room temp IQ

  • realmagicstu MagicStu (@realmagicstu) reported

    When people say, Overwatch 2 is the same game? You really haven’t played it enough. Its further from the original its fast paced, and much harder to play. Also still ridiculously riddled with issues.

  • Tevqo_ Tevqo (@Tevqo_) reported

    @OverwatchFR @battlenet problem solved

  • ItsClop chloe (@ItsClop) reported

    Playing overwatch 2 and everytime I unlock an achievement on Xbox I get kicked out the server? I also just got kicked out of comp and am now getting the log in error that was supposedly fixed… @PlayOverwatch

  • Kalerath Palerath 🧟 (@Kalerath) reported

    "I'm just gonna fix a couple of things on my overlay before streaming some Overwatch 2." Now, 1.5 hours later I'm in the middle of a complete refactor of everything I've done to my UI ever. Priorities.

  • thetan00kii TaSpooki 🎃🇧🇪 FACTS Ghent soon! (@thetan00kii) reported

    I'm sorry but Orisa is just broken in Overwatch 2

  • danraincoat raincoat (@danraincoat) reported

    if anyone else keeps getting a "rendering device lost" error on overwatch 2 i fixed it by installing 2 year old gpu drivers

  • CridoGhandi Twi Yan Gil (@CridoGhandi) reported

    Overwatch 2 lag on PS5 is a ******* nightmare. My team phase in and out of walls and everyone disappears on the map for 2-5 seconds.

  • ViTiZ1 ViTiZ (@ViTiZ1) reported

    I wonder when Orisa will get a nerf in overwatch 2. That champion is so broken, it's disgusting.

  • E1M1_SW ricardo #OhioWalnutsSweep (@E1M1_SW) reported

    i made an insane discovery that halo infinite and overwatch 2 are litteraly the exact same game when it comes to their problems

  • hsaqx HSAQX 0 (@hsaqx) reported

    @PlayOverwatch I have a problem. I bought overwatch LEGENDARY EDITION And I only got 5 from 15 skins. Original skins can you fix this?

  • unicornpeewee Unicornpeewee (@unicornpeewee) reported

    anyone else have the issue in overwatch 2 where the "override" settings per hero comes back after each start up even if its been deleted before? it mean you have to manually delete them each time or your binds will be different on those heroes

  • Kazame1605 Kazame🥝(かじゃ) (@Kazame1605) reported

    DPS Moira in Overwatch 2 is a problem.
