today was supposed to be nice & instead it's a hot pile of trash i should probably induce intense feelings of anger while playing overwatch im sure thatll solve all my issues and leave me newborn & starry & translucently fresh

Unpopular opinion (Overwatch edition): DPS should never complain about tank picks. They have the choice of 18 different utility characters. If there’s a problem with the team comp dps switches will solve far more often than a tank switch!

@sliceit20 I feel that dude. As a D2 pve guy it sucks I don’t have much in the game to feel I have “improved”. And from what I know of the Val ranked system it’s borked and I hope it’s changed to more personal performance because I know overwatch had the same problem when I played

@BlizzardCS What do you mean? The money gets taken out whenever I buy it but then refunded when it says "Digital Purchase Failed." I've bought overwatch from Blizzard and had no problems, I don't know why now.

honestly i'm not suprised overwatch is dying, that games community gets worse and worse as time goes along. still seeing the same **** that made it a problem 2 years ago, but people will just buy a new account and go again and blizzard don't care :)

@ the nickname thing Who cares if some friends want to name themselves after overwatch characters and make the event a little more enjoyable for them Punish those who use it to spread inappropriate or targeting messages Nicknames not the problem, ****** people are

@AblazaLuis The issue was that the character designs were bland. In contrast with overwatches style it just felt boring.

@TitanfallBlog I know some people have already said it but she's basically pharah... a character known to be very annoying in overwatch. Idk how it will translate to apex but free hovering and high ground, escapes, a bombardment etc. Probably gonna have a few issues.

@450yrs @therealestglug @Hypo_Thermick They already have code that works though. This is a problem with VAC not working on linux. So if they just reused the concept and some of the code behind CS:GOs overwatch then maybe it could be helped a bit. Plus the boys are open source. Valve has NO excuse not to fix it.

problem with ranked in games like overwatch and valorant is that games are only determined by who is the better smurf

@GamersNexus Radeon HD 7870. I bought it for cheap in 2018, and it was surprisingly capable. It had its issues, like VRM cooling, which affected games such as Overwatch. BUT overall, I may still be running it if not for those issues.

@Patriots @BostonUprising Serious question- couldn’t the overwatch game be hacked to give one team a small (but meaningful) advantage that no one would ever know about? Seems like if people start betting big bucks on this it could be an issue some day

@Retr0J #UBP Spend on games. Normally about £200 a year for 3 gamers in the house . But last 12 months more like £80. However Warhammer has jumped hugely and was about £1K in last year. I tend to paint then play overwatch when not working

@Raquel_Savage I played Overwatch for 24 hours straight and my hand felt broken so I kept flapping it up and down. It didn't even seem connected to my wrist. It was just moving up and down like a puppet hand.

Overwatch is impossible to play without leavers and throwers in every single match, purposely trolling. Apex Legends is impossible to play without getting disconnected either because of ****** ratfuck DDOS cheaters or because of the cardboard and dogshit servers. FML

Picture this: 3am On Overwatch. Map 3 on capture point. You're a pocketed mcree against a pocketed mcree. 10% left to win.... Then BOOM: Xbox Update...😐😐😐 Duo said they lost to a tracer... If it wasn't 3am. Many things would be broken.
