  • nathonamor nat morris (@nathonamor) reported

    anyone know why #Overwatch2 completely destroys my computer? i’ve seen slideshows that had more frames than my game gets. which makes no sense considering my computer ran overwatch 1 with no problems. my graphics have been changed to be the absolute worst possible. still awful.

  • Zeaig Zeaig - パンダ (@Zeaig) reported

    Welp apparently, we already have an issue with Cash Shop skins on @overwatch people are now harassing those who purchased the Kiriko Halloween skin bundle. some even going as far to say they are mass reporting anyone with it for "gameplay sabotage" just to try to get them banned.

  • Dreadful_Void 🖤𝔾𝕒𝕓𝕣𝕚𝕖𝕝🖤 (@Dreadful_Void) reported

    Soo I got my overwatch working for those who have the Lc-208 error try logging in overwatch on PC it will work. #overwatch #xbox #ps4

  • OwReise Reise_OW (@OwReise) reported

    Im really hoping that the sheltered community of overwatch players quiet down after sojourn zar sombra get nerfed and maybe a little nerf for genji and dva i keep hearing people begging for stuns back like that exact problem wasnt what killed off the game in the first place AIM

  • pawingmonster Name is Shelby ! Gamer, wife, anxiety survivor (@pawingmonster) reported

    @JohnWolfeYT Yeah like last night my husband was playing Overwatch 1.5 and it crashed halfway through the event. I heard, “Well, ****!” Lol. He’s been having a lot of issues with that one.

  • TheRealCSnow1 The_Real_C-Snow (@TheRealCSnow1) reported

    @DrDisrespect It does, if you take a look at overwatch pub lobbies which use a very loose mmr system, you get placed with people who have never touched the game and it’s a problem.

  • KG_REVEN Ethan (@KG_REVEN) reported

    @InfernoOmni Error LC-208 preventing console players from playing Overwatch 2 at all. This is yet to be fixed or even addressed after 24 hours.

  • katlikescats Kat 🐈‍⬛ (@katlikescats) reported

    @RaleighGuenther @BlizzardCS Same for @yeehawnk he got kicked out of multiple games with this error and he doesn’t have a PC to log onto Overwatch with…hopefully they fix this issue soon

  • Redbot115Yt Redbot115YT (@Redbot115Yt) reported

    @BlizzardCS @PlayOverwatch please, people wanna know how to actually bloody fix this error, I don’t wanna have to go out of my way to download overwatch on my laptop just to fix, that’s really unnecessary, I just wanna play the bloody game

  • The_Fifth_Don Tanner (@The_Fifth_Don) reported

    @TRICHERATOPS_ @Romudeth My thoughts exactly. If the deal goes through and they add Diablo, Overwatch, CoD, WoW, Crash Bandicoot, etc. to Game Pass then $20/month doesn’t seem that unreasonable to me. But it depends entirely on how much they raise the price by and what they add to the service.

  • Krimberr Krim 🌿👻 ᴄᴏᴍᴍs ᴏᴘᴇɴ (@Krimberr) reported

    @UkZora First problem was playing overwatch

  • flirtxiao lu (@flirtxiao) reported

    @BlizzardCS Are you ever going to fix the bugged overwatch stats?

  • YoungGodKenoli ⚡KenoliRavioli⚡ (@YoungGodKenoli) reported

    How am I still getting kicked from Overwatch 2 games IN RANKED and also can't join bCk in the game cause it's not letting me get into the server while a game is on AND STILL getting suspended for an Error of THEIR server!? This game is a ******* mess @Blizzard_Ent @Overwatch2

  • cupidsluvarroww ingrid⁷ (@cupidsluvarroww) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ hey does anyone know how to fix overwatch on my switch? it always crashes

  • davis99_c CDavis99 (@davis99_c) reported

    @Rose_Waffles @NyanSox Nice . I always got greys on my irl transaction the rng is too unpredictable I think the issue is more so price and lack of in game currency in battle pass or if there is not enough. My point was just overwatch isn’t the only game with this issue in this genre.

  • I_Like_Doggos76 wanna_play_vidya?🤓 (@I_Like_Doggos76) reported

    @OrdinaryGamers yeah. the campaign can crash because a server went down for a second. they're also doing the big account hassle overwatch 2 did, but for all aspects of MW2 including the campaign.

  • PanduhhXx Panduhh 🇵🇭 (@PanduhhXx) reported

    Anybody else get the issue that when you boot up overwatch you can hear the menu sound but see nothing. My screen just is black.

  • n00bywarrior None of My Biases are Safe (@n00bywarrior) reported

    @Capt_Jack87 @NagaEz The difference is quality of cosmetic for the pricing. If you put $20 into any other F2P game you will get a far better cosmetic than Overwatch. I don't have a problem with skins. I would happily drop $20 on the Mythic Genji skin. Not a basic witch outfit that changes nothing.

  • JJoseAntonioo_ JD (@JJoseAntonioo_) reported

    @BlizzardCS can y’all please!! Fix if you lag out of a game on overwatch competitive to let me join back. Keeps saying disconnected from server

  • RojoRedPanda Rojo (@RojoRedPanda) reported

    is there some weird overwatch glitch going on? i swear i didnt even buy ana’s gold gun but i had it equipped for an entire match earlier

  • BinzzCoffee CoffeeBinzz🔞 (@BinzzCoffee) reported

    Overwatch is a game based on playing as a team around an objective, and never before have I ever had so much trouble getting my team to push together. And I'm not only a tank either I play support and DPS pretty flexibly. 2/?

  • jinxthesky Jinx Parker (@jinxthesky) reported

    overwatch 2: all the problems with overwatch, but twice as bad!

  • ThomasMcMillin4 Thomas McMillin (@ThomasMcMillin4) reported

    Overwatch 2 better hope Call of Duty has some issues at launch, otherwise people may never come back.

  • tbonemuscle Brian O'Sullivan (@tbonemuscle) reported

    @zajef77 Often mid/low ranked players get put against extremely high ranked players consistently which makes it feel unfair. It's a problem in Apex and Overwatch 2 from my experience.

  • The_Saklar Saklar_The (@The_Saklar) reported from Paradise, Nevada

    Feels like Overwatch 2 and Halo Infinite are battling for who can produce the worst F2P live service game

  • briirouge 💀Wicked Octo🎃 (@briirouge) reported

    @BlizzardCS Can you fix the Overwatch servers? Console players can’t get in for the Halloween event
