Dear Valorant, Just because overwatch 2 recently released and is popular right now doesn’t mean that to have to copy their menu format. It looks bad. Please fix. Sincerely, me

There’s no way I’m the only one losing every overwatch game cause of my teammates 80% of the time, the matchmaking or some hidden mmr has to be the problem cause this is getting ridiculous

@BlizzardCS hey…I just wanted to report something that’s been bugging me about Overwatch 2. I had about 1400 hours clocked on the game and it for some reason reset it to 940. Is there any way to fix this?

@alexonelol @d_sebas4 that means it's directly overwatch developers problem that they never gonna solve, basically saying that people can still 5 stack in open queue, win 80% of games, rank up to top500 and farm comp points/top500 icons sounds very disappointing

@FuuTop1 @SeanCasGamer @ProRebornYT Call of Duty is a $30 billion franchise by itself. Makes $3-4B yearly. But, CMA is looking at Diablo, Overwatch, CoD, Crash Bandicoot, etc. being on Game Pass and would power that would provide Microsoft

@Gale_Adelade I feel the same way I genuinely think they should bring back overwatch 1 for a week or two and iron out all these problems cause this game clearly wasn't ready for launch

@BlizzardCS I was able to login today, and do the account merger. Tried logging in just now and the LC-208 error is back. I put like 1000 hours into overwatch and would love to put some time into this. Open to suggestions.

The new Overwatch ranking system is the worst design experience to date. Easy fix too. Won't ever happen. Skiddish design behavior. @PlayOverwatch Call the flip phone.

@BlizzardCS I just did a bnet change and I can no longer log into overwatch??? But my other account can, so this seems like a name change issue not calibrating with the server.
