Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • UK_Gus Gus 🍌 (@UK_Gus) reported

    @CSGO What is the point of a flawed system like overwatch, when @UTDJonsson 's Dr. Latifur Khan and his work has proven you have the means to create a low failure rate standalone AI, and if the issue of kernel based A/C is so impassable to the company, why not take this road?

  • Tascioni1 Tascioni (@Tascioni1) reported

    @hazedCS The problem are her abilities. Riot needs to be careful with the new agents, this game is not csgo but also it's not overwatch

  • DylanHamer6 Dylan Hamer (@DylanHamer6) reported

    @pascaalho @Esports_News_UK @RLewisReports Released a story on all the cheating and community manipulation done by a Brazilian team in CSGO over the years. Brazilian fans didn’t like that. Reported on issues with the overwatch league, overwatch fans didn’t like that You can probably get the idea from just those

  • squidlena selena⁷ ⁿʸˣˡ (@squidlena) reported

    @JiminieeJamss Overwatch... Even though I’ve been playing the game way before I knew he played. Everytime I sign in I’m like “**** I wanna widow 1v1 with jk”

  • Gargomon251 Gargomon251 (@Gargomon251) reported

    Why is it that when I want to play OverWatch or Isaac, my computer crashes every 30 minutes, but when I'm not doing anything but watching videos I can go 5 hours no problem?

  • GroovyOW I'm Groovy (@GroovyOW) reported

    I just wanted to announce this, the reason why I've been inactive on YT and overwatch as a whole. I am very unhappy with the state of the game, and the balancing issues the game has. So I have decided to quit overwatch until it has returned to a better and more enjoyable state.

  • PickMeImSpecial Random Geek Guy (@PickMeImSpecial) reported

    @andrew_jrt 2021 and Overwatch still has issues like this It’s sad really

  • Nors3 Nors3 ⟠ (@Nors3) reported

    @Impos1bl3 Overwatch seems to be broken recently, spinbotters not getting banned.

  • Sherbet_exe Sherbet ★ (@Sherbet_exe) reported

    Like, I would play overwatch to stop the aching but my mouse’s left click is broken. Which is primary fire. PAIN.

  • AskMe2Sing Devon the Snail (@AskMe2Sing) reported

    Overwatch game design should have a goal for all players to master the(ir) heroes. They need to fix this community's toxicity. It kills the game when so many people find the need to coach others unwelcomed or blame someone for not being a professional.

  • Lightvoltaire1 Lightvoltaire (@Lightvoltaire1) reported

    @bbeebebebe You could've just stopped at "overwatch please fix mei"

  • oikanoo 血花🥀 (@oikanoo) reported

    [iykyk overwatch] even IF some nonblack women wear cornrows in wrestling to pin their hair down.... they didn't HAVE to use that hairstyle for mei omg there is a very easy fix to this -> use one of the hundreds of other hairstyles that women wear in wrestling

  • Rycaster Ryan: Trying His Best (@Rycaster) reported

    It’s already funny to me that Overwatch has been dealing with the same exact problems for the past five years, but infinitely more hilarious that their fuckups CONSISTENTLY involve Mei in one way or another. They cannot stop screwing up the same way every couple months.

  • copehh copehh (@copehh) reported

    @g1bg4b @Nors3 Same, up until earlier this month mm has been fine for me for the most part, and now I'm finding obvious cheaters on my LE and silver account. I also don't think I've seen an overwatch ban since before broken fang started lmao

  • KanmeiAva Ava Kanmei 💫 (@KanmeiAva) reported

    Like, im emotional, and during 2-3 games i was the one who dps kept blaming. And i cried, yes. Because it just hurts, that dps always think about themselves and ignoring that there are enemies, tanks, problems in positions, it just hurts to be a support main in overwatch

  • UK_Gus Gus 🍌 (@UK_Gus) reported

    @brunolr22 @RyanAtRBM Right now overwatch on csgo is broken out of its *** and does nothing.

  • CoreyJRichards Corey John Richards (@CoreyJRichards) reported

    The problem with Overwatch in gold or lower is people do not switch to counter. They just stick with one character despite getting countered themselves.

  • ItzzHabZ Max 父 (@ItzzHabZ) reported

    streaming practice in creative again today, tomorrow i’ll probably do overwatch. i’m gonna stream around the same time as yesterday, just gotta fix the wifi problem and i’m good to go for hours.

  • MaybeMizuki Mizuki 🏳️‍⚧️ (@MaybeMizuki) reported

    I feel like soon Apex is gonna run into the same problem Overwatch ran in (or at least the problem I had with the game at some point) and that's being too many heroes in the game :/ if you don't keep being on top of the game constantly it's gonna be way overwhelming fast

  • bbeebebebe blake (@bbeebebebe) reported

    overwatch please fix mei’s haaaiirrr 😭

  • UhOhItsEvie evie !! (@UhOhItsEvie) reported

    overwatch has it's share of problems, but these skins both have actual reasons for having the hair like that

  • KanxnKato Kanon (@KanxnKato) reported

    Don't get me wrong tho. Paladins has its own set of problems but Overwatch kinda does a better job at being problematic. 😶

  • O1GTV Kal (@O1GTV) reported

    @PlayOverwatch You guys still haven’t fixed console mic issues since the Echo update over a year ago... even after asking for feedback in several forums back last April. Can y’all fix that yet? That’d be great, especially considering Overwatch damn near requires communication.

  • DerWitzboldt Witzi (@DerWitzboldt) reported

    @MaybeMizuki That was a problem for you? For me it's the whole opposite. The game didn't have a major update for a very long time and it won't until Overwatch 2 releases. I already played every hero and every map to death. I need moar.

  • numbrecord alien-rlv (@numbrecord) reported

    @PlayOverwatch hey right now it’s been 10 days that something happened to my overwatch I can’t join any match chat group or team chat it just happened and the new update is out but still haven’t got fixed. A lot of people have the same problem as me please fix it

  • KanxnKato Kanon (@KanxnKato) reported

    Don't get me wrong tho. Paladins has its own set of problems but it hasn't been as abysmal as how Overwatch has been. 😶

  • STerrador SacredTerrador (@STerrador) reported

    @WalmartCAGaming Honestly? Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon. If not them, then a new Sonic Character. And if NONE of those are possible, then perhaps someone from TF2 or Overwatch. I’m flexible on my dreams.

  • SmoochyCupcake ☂️ 🦄 learn to love yourself🦄 ☂️ (@SmoochyCupcake) reported

    @PlayOverwatch #Overwatch Should I be just as annoying as your game is an ask you to fix it every day?

  • KanxnKato Kanon (@KanxnKato) reported

    Don't get me wrong tho, Paladins has its own set of problems. But it's not as abyssmal as how Overwatch has been. 😶

  • gallonbree the bad guy (@gallonbree) reported

    Y’all (dps) are not gonna keep blaming the healers for your own mistakes in overwatch. You’re just bad. No amount of healing can fix that.
