  • hahahaniceman1 raccoon (@hahahaniceman1) reported

  • ObviousThrower Revert Doomfist to Dps (@ObviousThrower) reported

    @gh0steyy @PlayOverwatch Yeah for sure they would, but tbh already spoke with Sony they said if blizzard doesn’t fix it I could get a refund on most purchases including overwatch 1, but tbh I’d probably make more selling the account to a rando

  • summerkek sum (@summerkek) reported

    @Outlaws for the entirety of overwatch 2, orisa has been as broken as roadhog

  • PearUhDox PearUhDox (@PearUhDox) reported

    @Smdtwitte123 Its still frankly insulting to Overwatch players' intelligence to do this when these were quick number tweaks that could have been done instantly. And yes there was an issue with Roadhog being unable to be hotfixed, but frankly, that should have been said immediately, not now.

  • SyntheticClowns Satan's lil jester (@SyntheticClowns) reported

    Is anyone else experiencing random lag on overwatch? I know it's not my internet and it'll be fine then randomly my frames drop and get jittery

  • _LeeRun Lee (@_LeeRun) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent Looks like Overwatch servers are down AGAIN? Just got kicked, along with everyone in my house. Server issues.

  • bbhl0ve ryan🦇 (@bbhl0ve) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent please tell me why in overwatch, it literally boots you from the server and then punishes you for it? you can literally join back into the game, win it, and still get punished when ranking up even tho IT LAGGED YOU OUT. fix your dogshit game please

  • cardinalcamia cam 🌿 (@cardinalcamia) reported

    OVERWATCH SERVER DOWN :(((

  • DoneByImmortal Immortal (@DoneByImmortal) reported

    @torbbii you are the problem with overwatch

  • DumDumGames_ DumDumGames (@DumDumGames_) reported

    Overwatch fans will see a good patch and complain that every problem wasn't addressed in the 2 month span

  • Chifuyu_Akashi Chifuyu Akashi 🦝🌟 ENVTuber (@Chifuyu_Akashi) reported

    me (off stream): wow overwatch is lagging so much idk why???? also me: *not realizing I have CSP, OBS, VTube Studio and StreamLabels open all in the same time* 💀

  • Striker_Lmao strikr (@Striker_Lmao) reported

    dps doom would fix all problems with overwatch

  • GoldSh3ll GoldSh3ll - Jake (@GoldSh3ll) reported

    @Stylosa Is Overwatch really this doom and gloom now? I have minor issues but overall I'm having a good time with it.

  • Coach_Whistle Whistle (@Coach_Whistle) reported

    @RavenWings_ I like it but I think with the amount of heroes in overwatch, theres only a couple broken characters so the same bans will happen every game. Itll be different from comp but still the same game every time. The point of bans is dynamic meta, not a different but stagnant meta

  • unk_chunk #1 Overwatch Expert - correct 100% of the time (@unk_chunk) reported

    @RexOverwatch Bro you’re stuck regurgitating Geoff Goodman talking points. How is it watered down? Why is balancing an overpowered character unhealthy for the game? How is a broken character fun for anyone except the person playing that character? Nobody wants overwatch to be perfect

  • Mr_Tlost Mr.lost (@Mr_Tlost) reported

    Overwatch is broken, I keep sliding uncontrollably and it’s annoying

  • HollowSoraSama Miguel Ángel Llanos (@HollowSoraSama) reported

    So is anyone having problems with america's overwatch 2 servers? Or is just me @BlizzardCS

  • LsdXiii Zombies on LSD🔞 (@LsdXiii) reported

    @cybuuorg I think people need to embrace loving things despite their problems. I love Overwatch, but I acknowledge it could be FAR better. I love discussing its characters, brainstorming character ideas, imagining what the PvE has in store. But I also acknowledge- (cont.)

  • pup_ow Pup (@pup_ow) reported

    @StarDrummerOW Either a hardware issue or you can try just reinstalling Overwatch.,

  • bestPathNA raice (@bestPathNA) reported

    @CodyWatson_20 @ItsSomjuu bro I think YOU don't play tank or even overwatch at all sombra is just a mild annoyance, and supports can negate everyone's utility that's not a tank problem. and which DPS is shredding through tanks exactly?

  • roysetintglass gehrman enjoyer 🏳️‍⚧️🔞 (@roysetintglass) reported

    @DreamPlaysx @andybelford i don't think 5v5 itself is an issue, it's just that all of overwatch's issues/ow1 heroes issues became EXTREMELY apparent with 5v5

  • TheRealDeonix Deonix (@TheRealDeonix) reported

    Hey guys Just letting you know Overwatch kept lagging so oops I guess we can just talk on stream

  • ClearCatatonic Kit-10 (@ClearCatatonic) reported

    @Maybeyourright2 @PlayOverwatch I have played overwatch since the first game lol. Again, you lost out. Not my problem. Not Blizzard’s problem. It’s your problem. Grow up and realize you missed out.

  • TokyogamerO TokyoGamerTTV (@TokyogamerO) reported

    @xlbooyahlx @PsychobillyLily @BungieHelp No its called being considerate as the devs could easily not say **** until there's a fix and we'd have the overwatch 2 situation where people just wait wondering when they can play atleast now you can see that it'll take a hit and play something else

  • ObviousThrower Revert Doomfist to Dps (@ObviousThrower) reported

    although tbh my friend didn’t get the email so unsure if it was for toxicity cuz role queue is infuriating with all the speds #overwatch broken matchmaking is matching me with

  • Stryxus Stryxus (@Stryxus) reported

    I put my iMac back as the main monitor and attached my 240hz back to it. The screen on it is just far too good to look at and, I may have figured out the remaining major issues which made Overwatch near unplayable. If I get sick of it, I can very easily move it all back.

  • FlawSocial SocialDesignFlaw (@FlawSocial) reported

    The fact they talked about reducing the main functional design problem of Overwatch 2 (Tank Health) for all game modes EXCEPT Role Queue? Is...😶 ...On the other hand, if this leads them to seeing the potential for this change to get this game into a functional state? 👍

  • xPolyxena ☆ Poly ☆ (@xPolyxena) reported

    @SpookyPetePlays I’m always going to play music while playing games like Overwatch as that’s how I would play the game if I was off stream. I can turn the other stuff up but I don’t think audio was the issue here as nobody else has said anything about it, I’ve altered my mic settings now though
