    @lucyfps_ I mean I have sold tons of accounts on Overwatch and even got a destiny 2 account that had the DLC’s with no problems.

  • AnonymousSn1p3r Anonymous (@AnonymousSn1p3r) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent You and I have some problems. I don’t understand why I can get disconnected from my comp game and then get suspended for the entire season because you don’t allow me to join back because you game is straight ******* ******* and I’m talking about OVERWATCH

  • _kurojet supreme stocking simping! (@_kurojet) reported

    @blademourned At least it's that. Meanwhile, I'm literally preparing myself for Crash Bandicoot Overwatch LMAO but it just feels like League at the same time and I don't know why

  • Hopper_989 Hopper_989 (@Hopper_989) reported

    F2P FPS games I'd rather play over XDefiant: 1) Halo Infinite 2) Apex Legends 3) Paladins 4) Splitgate 5) Overwatch 6) Destiny 2 Beta or not, game already has some glaring problems. Hopefully patches and updates will make the game better, not holding my breath. #Xbox #HotTakes

  • EMO_CATGIRL tabi #1 ptv fan (@EMO_CATGIRL) reported

    is overwatch having server issues?? i feel bad playing because i am consistently being dragged across the map

  • Mr_Pillay_YT Mr_Pillay (@Mr_Pillay_YT) reported

    @theycallmeKJB I’ve been playing Overwatch recently. I love playing Apex but I kept getting kicked in ranked and getting a penalty is kak if it happens every few games. Not sure if it was a ps5 issue

  • JcktheRipp3r05 Victor🇲🇽 (Record of Ragnarok is PEAK FICTION🔥) (@JcktheRipp3r05) reported

    Overwatch needs to fix their ******* matchmaking I’ve had nothing but squash matches the past hour.

  • Jazu_chan7 Jazu_chan7 (@Jazu_chan7) reported

    @l1mitlessrun Mainly Valorant, but Apex and Overwatch 2, although my Apex is broken right now 🙃 just won't open! What about you?

  • SwirllriwS Whiplash (@SwirllriwS) reported

    @OW_SVB I’ve been thinking this for some time. Lots of community complaints and issues trickle down from top streamers or content creators for overwatch. Not say these issues WOULDNT arise without creators but I think it does contribute one way or another

  • AzzLikesBepis VibeCentral (@AzzLikesBepis) reported

    Is it just me or does Torbjorn from Overwatch 2 look like he's ready to fix my car instead of saving the world? Either way, I'm still counting on that hammer of his to knock some sense into the enemy team. #Overwatch2 #Torbjorn #GamingHumor

  • kandyking101 kandyking2 (@kandyking101) reported

    Alrighty now that I’ve got that out of my system. Anyway I will no longer be playing overwatch on stream again. Maybe once they fix this “you lost once, you get to stay in bronze ello hell” and switch up ranked, MMR systems, and make the game fun then maybe I’ll come back to it.

  • Xctzyy Xctzy (@Xctzyy) reported

    how i go 5-5 go up 3 then go 5-0 and go up 1, overwatch FIX IT

  • esperpm Esper (@esperpm) reported

    @BlizzardCS @PlayOverwatch Players from Vietnam still can't connect to Overwatch, Blizzard games or the us battlenet site since the DDOS incident last week. EU battlenet site works just fine, it's just the connection between NA and VN that's the problem.

  • BreakshadowCN 残影 ニュータイプ (@BreakshadowCN) reported

    @Hayzelet You can only do Overwatch bug feedbacks on US OW forum. And some actual usable feedbacks in that forum was ignored. Maybe CCs send footage on SNS and then Blizz will fix that bug soon. Or you can ask Jared for a special way to feedback? Is it exploitable & dangerous for players?

  • gliitchpop jinx🌟4; 121 (@gliitchpop) reported

    couldnt figure out oomf's nationality until we were in vc and it took me a second to tell and when i could it was primarily because of the fact that i had the same issue with moira overwatch and couldnt tell she was irish until i googled it so it dawned on me that oomf is irish

  • PhilReyes_11 Phillip A Reyes (@PhilReyes_11) reported

    Overwatch: *player models not spawning* Me: “alright, let’s scan and repair.” Overwatch: “scan and repair complete, no issues found.”

  • MochiFiend Salamander (@MochiFiend) reported

    @x40821 So what? You got a problem with that or something? Or are you here because your delusional retarded *** is making assumptions after attempting to bully me because I’m not gonna of 2 overwatch characters? Your life is clearly pathetic as **** if you’re this desperate.

  • FBAGameplay FBA (@FBAGameplay) reported

    Overwatch 2 stream into a Dying light 2 stream in 1 hour time? or maybe dying light stream in like 6-8 hours time? However, wouldnt be the same experience as I might already lag a bit when starting dying light 2 (first time btw) what u prefer to watch? :D

  • OlorintheRed OlorintheRed (@OlorintheRed) reported

    @BlizzardCS I have a problem on overwatch 2 and keep disconnecting from games when I load I tried other online games and it's fine is there a fix for this?

  • Wisdom_SSB Wisdom (@Wisdom_SSB) reported

    I don’t know how anyone can take overwatch seriously with all the hitreg problems

  • riggie711 Riggie711 (@riggie711) reported

    "The justices ... consult a wide variety of authorities to address specific ethical issues," whoever these authorities are, it seems as though they did not do their job when it came to Clarence Thomas. For this reason, the need for judicial overwatch in my opinion is needed.

  • SawToothSole012 KYONIC_SawTuthe (@SawToothSole012) reported

    @nmariereboot @narto111111 @OWAnonymous_ It wasn’t as big of a problem in Overwatch one especially since she had lower health, because the second tank could help with pressuring her. But with only one tank to take space there’s little to nothing you can do against even a somewhat decent widow.

  • discipleoflucy georgie 🏳️‍🌈 (@discipleoflucy) reported

    thanks overwatch for the dumb glitch of 'applying update' that got me suspended for 15 mins ;-;

    @x40821 So what? You got a problem with that or something? Or are you here because your delusional retarded *** is making assumptions after attempting to bully me because I’m not fond of 2 overwatch characters? Your life is clearly pathetic as **** if you’re this desperate.
