A few years ago LOL was virtually unplayable due to the amount of bots and it took ages to fix so I wonder if overwatch 2 will have the same issue

Making the switch from Console to PC next month for overwatch, and possibly apex if I can gain back some of that passion. Only problem is I don’t know much about computers. Anyone willing to help a brother out with getting the right setup?

@Haider83207270 @PlayOverwatch They consider it an add on so if you have overwatch 1 it should hopefully work when the beta releases. That's what I heard so far as I have the same issue for ps5

@Metro_OW But the issue with your argument here is that Apex doesn't use an SR system... Everybody starts at the bottom and has to work their way up. In OverWatch they use MMR to find your skill rating so instead of starting at the bottom you could do your placements and place in diamond..

@CaddyYP @BarryGr66 @Ashley_Jacobs92 If you had a problem paddock you could get it pretty clean in three years with lupins/ultro, into canola/overwatch to wheat Sakura

@ChrisDeLeon (1/) I have mixed thoughts on this. I generally agree with you, but I can't help but recognize we're discussing a Games as a Service. Unlike Diablo and other service-attached games, Overwatch could not continue in its current form detached from the service.

@Aramori_OW This is why as a woman I don’t join team VC when I play Overwatch and why I usually play in a group and try to have a stack. Because **** sweaty disgusting people. Also if you guys don’t find a problem with this youre probably part of the problem. This should be an instant ban.

@cursed_RK @Metro_OW I'm confused wasn't a decay system confirmed for overwatch? Wouldn't that fix your main complaint?

@OverwatchCaval Hey, do u have direct contact to people from Overwatch? Like since the last patch people lost skins that they paid money for and we are all reporting on the bug forum but Blizzard just ignores the issue.

@Kotaku That’s ridiculous. I paid for the game on multiple consoles because I liked it so much. People paid good money for the first game, and based on the sequel being free to play, it probably will have a lot of issues, which means overwatch 1 will still have more players

@GumshoeJump HAHA YEAH that was also a problem I had but I didnt realize because I got sick of overwatch before I noticed my Problem

The biggest problem with wanting to make Overwatch content right now is it has to be Overwatch 1 content. Maybe I just wait.

@PlayOverwatch You get overwatch 1 and you also get stuff for overwatch 2 so please give me overwatch 1 because as of right now you are telling a lie so please fix this

No MMR reset, no SR reset, private profiles remaining. I want Overwatch 2 to be a success, but if Blizzard refuse to address the issues that have made comp so bad for the past 3 years it's difficult to have any faith in them to make decisions that improve the game in the future

@__Kiizu__ Well that's no problem for me. I jumped into Battlefront 2 head first after people had already maxxed out their characters years ago. I'm just worried about getting flamed for being new. At least that's what my experience with overwatch was.

(@NoTEmOmAn) reported
@OverwatchCaval Pretty awesome 👍, not bad. They really do need more big overhauls like these if the "2" Part in Overwatch 2 will be taken seriously. But at the same time, if it ain't broke don't fix it. This must be really hard to develop.

@BlizzardCSEU_EN is the issue with the Overwatch 2 Watchpoint pack not working on PlayStation on Blizzards end or Sonys? Can’t get the beta to download. Yes I know it doesn’t open till the 28th but I’m not even finding it in my game library.

@G0rl0ck @OWAnonymous_ Bruh the character and her abilities have been a fundamental part of overwatch day 1 if after 5 years you have a problem with her now then idk where you were all that time. Not to mention people like her as is and the devs even want to include more support heroes like her

@Tavgar_Bulbas @MarioCouto13 That is a good question! Unless there's game-specific compatibility issues, I think it would probably work. If not it might work in the future. I know some people got Overwatch as well as D3 running, but I'm curious if D4 will end up working considering its entirely new engine.

@ironjermbo @MarianMauel @IGN Lootboxes weren't a problem in Overwatch RELATIVE to other Lootboxes. Sure they only contained cosmetics, no gameplay changing stuff, but they were the only method of getting most cosmetics. Someone after a particular skin will still have to keep buying and gambling for it.

@ithayla i much prefer grids myself bc i hate grappling with hitboxes, but otherwise gears tactics tickles me so nicely - especially in how it addresses the overwatch-creeping problem. really hope firaxis is paying attention here
