  @bewitcheddarlin Honestly, I reached diamond 3 without really a lot of issues, but people ego is inflated as hell, it's Overwatch all over again 😭

  @cresaint My problem is everyone acting like every company does this which they don’t I.E. Overwatch the p*rn is literally the models from overwatch like infold is probably just a well not rare byt uncommon company also they were selling it too

  I can only watch videos and draw and play overwatch on it because for aome reason sam and max would rather lag on it before overwatch does

  @EXCELSlOR_ Sounds stupid, but Lucio from Overwatch or Doomfist, there was a rumors way back about OW coming to smash, but after like some Hong Kong issue it soured the water

  @ukrisreng1582 @mmmmmmmmiller Broken can't spend four or five dollars. On a couple of things. He would rather spend $25 on a skin in OverWatch. Then get three skins for for like four or five bucks. You can't make this **** up

  @tazalotl1981 @NigelMcKinney Most of the time it's not possible to vet people properly, so a stringent overwatch of these people needs to be implemented, if they want to enter they should have no problem giving finger print and DNA samples

  @dusk_fps @Forest__O_O @monsterhunter Might be wrong but this is just getting fixes live service would be rivals overwatch cod i would not put a monster hunter in that category

  We_Are_Turok (@I_am_Turok) reported 26 minutes ago

  @pampurins i would say that its not really an issue... and that ive survived with a 90% heal reduction... but... overwatch is genuinely built differently and the hero design philosophy never supported cauterized healing, so i get it. it feels suffocating. idk how to help though

• 
  Dwight (@dwight_shoda) reported 27 minutes ago

  @Rambo_Hair @GermanStrands that was hardly the issue, from what i saw the game itself ran fine. it was probably the most optimized hero shooter ive seen. very little problems. the biggest issue was character design, marketing and 8 years too late for hero shooters when Overwatch 2 fails to draw a crowd

  ( ꩜ ᯅ ꩜;)  (@thetwigggler) reported 28 minutes ago

  @Irumaame im not doing that? im telling yall to focus on actual issues like her death instead of some retard **** like overwatch skins 😭🙏 holy **** is it that hard to talk about REAL LIFE ISSUES

• 
  Jordan (@ne3bula) reported 29 minutes ago

  why is overwatch matchmaking so broken? i had a moira die 9 times and get less than 2000 healing in a match

  Miriam 'fuckng' Undertale (@miwiamundertale) reported 33 minutes ago

  See the issue with wow currently is that it was originally designed to be tf2 but over time has become overwatch, and no matter what version of the game you try to launch the community only wants overwatch

  @MulticamOw overwatch had this same problem.

  I need a Reinhardt or any other big buff tank main to play with me in overwatch it would solve my daddy issues

• 
  X2 (@X2pinkcray) reported 36 minutes ago

  @SkywardPlate @ThelVanDamne @HerosDr34m Req packs which affected one gamemode only in the halo community yall blame the devs for people this **** in but cod was doing it and Overwatch and none of the fans from those games blame the game for it. It was literally industry standard and regardless halo 5 was live service.

  Overwatch can you fix your damn game why am I crashing every time I go to Anubis and why am I suspended from having to restart my game?? I wasn’t in a match BECAUSE THE GAME CRASHED

  @PlayOverwatch Please fix overwatch 2 for the Nintendo switch 2

  @PotNoodleOW i had my first crash in 8 years of Overwatch as well last week. the process stopped responding & locked my desktop so hard I had to make a new desktop to bring up task manager & kill it.

  @Bloomzor @DumbsYT @Necrit94 I tried to argument it further on another answer. The problem is that I don't know why does he say that so I can't really fight it with arguments, from my perspective league is not on a bad spot and has been on way worse ones. Like overwatch or Fortnite release

  @Pirat_Nation And I'll double down in not caring about any of Sony's live service games, until they make something more interesting then another Apex Legends, and Overwatch clone.

  @CounterStrike RIP Dangerzone RIP Operations RIP 128 tick RIP Flying Scoutsman RIP Overwatch RIP stable frametimes and latency RIP Achievements RIP distinct CS look, now replaced by soulless comic style Fix the missing content, hitreg and cheater pandemic, then we can talk.

  @MarvelRivals overwatch 2. Killing you. It’s not for character reasons. Fix the match making

• 
  CyberQueenAlice (@CyberQueenAlice) reported 48 minutes ago

  Cyberpunk 2077's glitchfest launch aged better than Overwatch's desperate microtransactions—I'll take neon bugs & broken NPCs over Blizzard greed any day. Gaming's tragically poetic fall. #HotTake

  Every time I boot Overwatch 2 up there’s a problem I’m gonna ******* scream bro.

• 
  Dave (@ThatOddGuyDave) reported 50 minutes ago

  @enchandted Apparently they "lost" the files and data to this while converting to Overwatch 2, and the only way they can "fix" it is by completely remaking it. Don't know why, but I'm not buying that excuse of theirs.

  𝓴 (@widowmesmeric) reported 55 minutes ago

  okay i’m at my dads and overwatch is running great so idk how to fix this at home, i went through my switch settings and idek 😭 i don’t know what i can adjust since im not the only on on the wifi any advice? i can’t use an ethernet cable

  @EmperorKermit @evolved117 most characters in Overwatch don't have sprint,just like most of them don't have any clamber-like abilities and it's irrelevant if it's part of the core or not,the real issue with it is that it has no actual purpose other than to copy what others are doing sprinting doesn't add

• 
  HaloiOi (@Juicebox343GS) reported 1 hour ago

  @HubPointless Also if there were ever a topic not spoken about enough, it's this exact issue here. Counter Strike, Overwatch, Valorant, Doom is basically Halo 3 customs with player speed at 150%! Sprint is a gimmick that's fun, but it was never Halo's core experience. Halo 3 was that in spades
