@mizliz_ The Overwatch team not communicating earlier make it so we get leakers. So, there is a source to where the problem is.

@burgeroise Which ALSO Overwatch the esport is a spectator, player, and design nightmare Blizzard walked into thinking they could solve the problem with money.

@HelaKarp @RewindGaming06 @HoshizoraOW Yeah but what you don't seem to realize is that is the monetization system that got Overwatch 1 to crash and burn. It's not profitable, and nobody likes to work for free!

@OverwatchNaeri i have a question, i have overwatch bought on a secondary account and not the main one i play on ps (i had problems with the store on my main years ago) will i get the perks of playing overwatch 1 on overwatch 2 on the account that bought the game, or my main one for playing it?

The only real problem I have with Overwatch 2 right now is it seems credits are staying as is and they are adding a 4th currency instead of just changing credits

Really sucks how many people are conveniently forgetting how evil Activision/Blizzard are so they can get hyped up for Overwatch 2. Looks boring! Maybe have some spine and give up one (1) ****** live-service game? Maybe stop supporting a horrible company? Just a thought.

@RvrsOnTwitch @BungieHelp Yes every game has issues. Of course. But not like this. How often do whole operators in R6 get disabled? Or hero’s in Overwatch? Or weapons in CoD? Minor issues and bugs are expected. A major issue here and there is fine. But we have multiple exotics disabled every season.

Overwatch 2 is broken IF - not everyone has karaoke on Busan - you still can’t put a spray outside attacker third spawn on Junkertown - ganymede doesn’t get a hat on at least one bastion skin

Am I the only person who doesn't think that Overwatch 2's battle pass system is bad? I guess if you don't play for a few months there's the issue that you could miss out on a character unlock.

@N0NZILLA @DestinLegarie They arent being hypocritical tho, as scope of Acti +poss IP exclusivity unprecedented +orders of magnitude beyond industry standard/anything prior. Not just COD mind you, Overwatch, Diablo, Warcraft, Doom, Crash, Spyro etc. Hell, Acti in FY2021 made more profit than PlayStation!

@indivibess @ThunderBrush Can we just coexist without arguments. I don’t even play overwatch but quarrels won’t solve the issue. Maybe the idea of crossover skins for both games is great

@IngameHector @JezCorden @CMAgovUK How it could be bad for gaming industry? Giving anti-competitive prev multiplat IP edge unprecedented in industry. COD among biggest IP avail w pred playerbase on PS, enough for huge marketshare impact +sub future. Other IP too; Warcraft, Crash, Diablo, Doom, Overwatch, Spyro etc

@Potatoman_023 @Custa This is true but what happens if I get busy for an extended period of time and don't have time to play Overwatch enough to get enough coins or whatever to unlock battle passes? Suddenly I'm missing heroes or I'm playing catch-up. Same issues for new players years down the track

@DiceyJune Overwatch is just an issue from top to bottom, the only thing they ever had was polish on assets.

@1exi Overwatch is a game about switching, idc if there are onetricks or whatever and I wont have the problem to unlock every hero bc I have no life and play it all day, but there are people who only play sometimes and cant get every hero, Overwatch was the game where you got 1/2

Nothing good comes out of leaks, and nothing good comes out of harassing journalists, but clearly the Overwatch community takes issue with people doing their jobs in a healthy manner.

One of the primary and worst problems of the American Judicial System, from high to low courts, is the almost complete lack of Judicial Overwatch and Review with CONSEQUENCES and ACCOUNTABILITY for their unethical if not criminal god-like behaviors. Including the SCOTUS.

@dev1sing @RianneTV @KarQGames Overwatch 2 does not nearly require counter picking and swapping in the same way Overwatch 1 did. Some characters are stronger and weaker against each other, but in practice it’s never TRULY been the case that “just switch 4head” ever solved the problem except for like, Brig

@AkasakaSabishii @JoonaRusketus @EskayOW So if they're overconfident like dva that's a problem, if they're shy like mei that's a problem, and if they're analytical like symmetra they're a problem? Also dva is like the most popular character overall in overwatch with the most art made for her
