    PC didnt crash yesterday when I was testing obs with val 👀idk why it crashes with overwatch but I have something now

  • Ritzierr1 Ritzierr (@Ritzierr1) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ What’s sad is you can’t argue against this Overwatch is dying because of poor balance We can sit and be sad and deny it sure But ask yourself how long has Cree been the most broken DPS that people instantly lock How long has Moira been an annoying killing god And sigma

  • ReviceRex Revi (@ReviceRex) reported

    @AllFatherMedia @PlayAvengers Acting as if we didn't get 3 MCU skins for free in a row in shipments. Like I said, live service games do this literally all the time. I bought an overwatch skin for 3K credits last year, this year it was free to obtain. I'm not gonna sit here and cry about it, I'll let -

  • JooVeloso20 João (@JooVeloso20) reported

    @PaladinsGame 10 minutes to find a rank. Casual is the most unbalancing game mode in the entire game. Sky is completely broken at close range. But no. U guys don’t give a **** about the game. Poor team. Dead game. That’s why this game will never compete with overwatch. Incompetente team.

  • Archility Archility (Spa) (@Archility) reported

    Still cant believe overwatch is adding Aladdin to the game. We really dont need another flyer character, let alone someone that one shots. His Genie ability looks as broken as echo’s beam or dooms punch, like wtf

  • ntwshn intowishin^sk (@ntwshn) reported

    @ChueyGaming @EasySkilll I used to drink when I played overwatch in top500 games and it became a problem but I def gave 0 care to how the games went

  • ezbak3lovin matt (@ezbak3lovin) reported

    @sticeyzx @ltsCamo @shalors I didn’t know LAG had an overwatch team, that’s kinda cool

  • CarwynwgJ 🔞 Darkcymru's Art and Gaming 🔞 (@CarwynwgJ) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ I think its only a double edged sword. Paladins devs did not fix the bugs and servers currently in the game and Overwatch won by server stability.

  • Clevilol Clevi (@Clevilol) reported

    some overwatch might fix it

  • GayerThanU_fr 🍓🏳️‍⚧️StrawbeRae🏳️‍⚧🍓(3 months into Puberty 2) (@GayerThanU_fr) reported

    @I_AM_CR0W @DavidSavastano Overwatch is an example I like to bring up. My issue is more the irreversible changes

  • satanael_gg Satanael (@satanael_gg) reported

    revisited overwatch and I can confidently say: the most TOXIC COMMUNITY I've EVER experienced. and I have over 100 hours in csgo. random hate, always blaming someone else, and ranked without role selecting is borderline unplayable because people will disconnect from vc just to

  • chace_morton Overwatch (@chace_morton) reported

    Due to in-studio problems, we have decided to delay Overwatch 2 to 2024. We apologize for the inconvenience. #Overwatch

  • SpriteOW Sprite (@SpriteOW) reported

    Anyone having really bad crashing issues with Overwatch recently? Happening to everyone I queue with

  • ethwalle11 Ethan Wallace (@ethwalle11) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ I think this is exactly why, as a tank player, I will love overwatch 2, so many issues with tank balance and playing any shield tank was just boring but it had to happen because other tanks weren't as good played without certain tanks, so much more fun as a tank player

  • A_71247 a (@A_71247) reported

    @Stylosa I remember time ago that some countries banned gambling and loot boxes counted as gambling so there were issues for overwatch. It makes sense if they are switching to battle pass but I’m hoping they don’t

  • Archility Archility (Spa) (@Archility) reported

    Since its April Fools whats your way to fix overwatch? Wrong answers only

  • ZeBadmedic 🇺🇦 ZeBadmedic 🇺🇦 (@ZeBadmedic) reported

    @RapidStarlord @PlayOverwatch You get finally (okay we waited long enough) some Overwatch 2 Stuff (n April). I would not even had a problem if we skipped this Event now, but hey atleast some free stuff.

  • gr1mhealer Gr1mhealer (@gr1mhealer) reported

    ngl overwatch was kind of popping tonight!! Cannot wait for my Sr to crash and burn again 🤠

  • TheDofflin_ TheDofflin 🐬 (@TheDofflin_) reported

    @Black_Apex98 @Gladion97 @OverwatchNaeri I dunno like surely they can hire 1 more person to do more interesting recolours than just white skins, while they work on Overwatch 2. So many issues could be avoided in this team if they just scaled up.

  • FloreyTheFloof The origin of all things horny (@FloreyTheFloof) reported

    you know, i never played overwatch in its hayday. i kinda wish i did. I know I could buy it now, but I have no intention of giving Blizzard my money... how to solve this problem?

  • SnDFish 𝐹𝟨 (@SnDFish) reported

    We are the biggest laughing stock community ever. CSGO , R6, Dota, Overwatch, H1Z1, PUBG, all competitive games had hacking issues with anti-cheats btw & we went "Yeah, Call of Duty, billion $ franchise, we switching to PC where its easier to hack." ****** huh!?!?!

  • CCatguy 🅲🆁🅰🆉🆈 🅲🅰🆃🅶🆄🆈 (@CCatguy) reported

    5) I have only 2 issues with the series. 1) The Spartan with the ponytail dons her helm with the thing still in the way. 2) If you are a "sniper" providing overwatch & you are running around in the open & get knocked down because you've made yourself a target, you've failed.

  • Casual_Jacob_ Jacob 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@Casual_Jacob_) reported

    Anyway, I'm going to bed and hoping to fix my sleep schedule enough to stream tomorrow (that's not an April Fool's joke I swear!). I really want to get back to the Overwatch grind.

  • skyleon7 Skyleon (@skyleon7) reported

    Is anyone else having issues with in-game voice chat? #Overwatch #Xbox I can’t hear anyone and no one can hear me. Party chat works fine though. On #XboxSeriesX @Blizzard_Ent @Xbox

  • Niki46022123 Niki (@Niki46022123) reported

    @calcifer022 @pukefacehht @DannnyIoI It is riot it’s the only game with ping problems I have I’m from EU tho no ping problems in R6s,apex,overwatch or smite just in league

  • JAz3TV JAz3 (@JAz3TV) reported

    @Alex_SNAJP @oblivity2 Yeah that's the problem I was only swiping across my mousepad. It actually started working when I swapped to arm aiming from mixed. It also works when I select overwatch and not valorant.

  • ASHLEYHUGHES03_ ASHLEY HUGHES (@ASHLEYHUGHES03_) reported

    @BlizzardCS hi, I was playing overwatch and my sound just cut out, my tv sounds works fine and I’ve tried other disc games snd they all work, I’ve cleaned the disk have you got a fix

  • luci_carino luciDCarino (@luci_carino) reported

    @ow_nomad @OWAnonymous_ You act like that **** is exclusive to Overwatch. Get real bucko. That's everywhere, including Paladins. Try actually listing problems that are exclusive to Overwatch.

  • IxalionRising 🦁IXALION🦁The Eternally Chilled Soul (@IxalionRising) reported

    player which is my other issue, I've played a few shooters over the years (CS:GO, PUBG, Overwatch, F-Nite..etc.) and I understand that there's toxicity in most communities but holy, the games I played was some of the worse I've seen in years, I don't use a mic to not incite-pt3/8

  • Nightmare_XX123 Nightmare_XX (@Nightmare_XX123) reported
