    Why am I flipping banned because overwatch kicked me out???? I just got two minute ban on playing overwatch cause I “left a game” but it was some stupid DNS error! I did not intentionally leave a game!

    But i guess that's what league of legends, overwatch, FFXIV, genshin impact, valorant, marvel rivals, etc. is for. I think live service and indie games just fill in the holes now. But people are tired of live service.

    @j_step21 Hot take, but Concord wasn't 'terrible' as a game. The issue was, it was just Overwatch but slower. The lore was pretty decent, and it seems someone put effort into that. It's just a shame the character designs were so piss poor and it brought nothing new to the table

    @yseasoned @Greenpig117 Because overwatch simply missed its chance to be a good game again i'm afraid. Their lack of trying to improve until they had competition is the embodiment of everything wrong with live service games.

    is there another replay bug? i cant load any replays on overwatch and i get an error

    one of my favoomfs… you are very interactive, and you have very good taste in the things u like!!! i think we r fairly similar.. we share interests and it’s very cool……. sorry my tv broke whilst we were playing overwatch (it’s still broken fyi, i had to get a new one.)

    ik this is such a non issue but i wish overwatch had more slots for emotes like i have so many mercy emotes i want to equip but can only put 4 😔

    Bello! Me analyze Overwatch clip, very critical, like minion! Clip show payload game, lotsa beams, explosions, maybe cheating by Whisperz, bello! Giardia_ow mad, call for ref, suggest foul play. Cheating big problem in Overwatch, FACEIT got strict rules, ban aimbots, wallhacks fast. But maybe not cheating, could be hero skill or game bug, like lag, look suspicious, bello! Need FACEIT check clip proper, ensure fair play. False blame hurt too, make game toxic. Truth matter most, investigate fully, bello!

    @JimSerna1 @StreetFighter I don’t believe so. SF was collaborating with Overwatch and monster hunter at the same time so there shouldn’t be any problem with multiple collabs happening at one time

    @dvd_es2 @MRivalsEsports its not better than ow at all ow had a support issue that theyve mostly fixed marvel rivals supports are much much stronger than overwatch supports at their peaks

    @live_lobster @LoovlehCuppaTea like fr ive always had issues with nightmares/terrors and i would wake up in a jolt, punched the wall occasionally...one of those holes was made from an overwatch dream. My body reacted like im terrified dreaming about those games 😭😭 sometimes i will close my eyes and instead

    @ShitpostRock Blizzard, it's not even close. From Warcraft 3 to current WoW... From Diablo 2 to Diablo 4 VoH... From Overwatch to the many broken promises of OW2...

    @ceroeit Thank you! I lowkey think it's just in one of the art books so I'm just going to have to sit down with mine Weird issue with googling Overwatch Era Overwatch images is that. That's the. Name of the franchise. So it doesn't work

  • Cat_Alan_Vibes
    Angel (@Cat_Alan_Vibes) reported

    I kind of have a problem where I associate things together by words. A tweet will be like “this is a bad omen” and mentally I’m like “omg omen from overwatch?”. Or someone texts something & I’ll latch on to one word that I remember is in a song lyric and send them the song lyrics

  • KungFuMan316

    @ThatOddGuyDave From what I gather the issue is Overwatch 2's structure doesn't allow it to be ported over as is, but they should still be able to simply remake it.

  • FabledEggnog
    FabledEggnog (@FabledEggnog) reported

    @velvetapplez yeahh and like, you can tell alot about a person when you play overwatch with them..joined someone from a xbox group post and they only played support ranked and were kinda bad at it...looked at their profile and had 1500 hours on genji 😭 and i thought i had a problem on mercy..

    Blizzard needs to fix the shop, one of the perks of game pass with Overwatch was getting cosmetics but now we don’t get nearly as much as before since if a skin wasn’t in the shop the previous season, you can’t use it the next

    are overwatch servers down??

  • dwight_shoda
    Dwight (@dwight_shoda) reported

    @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

  • snagy479
    Sandor Nagy (@snagy479) reported

    @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

    @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.

    @astrowaree @SlizzaCS @ThourCS2 Saying Id dont anything is kinda nonsense. Premier has million times more cheaters. Faceit can't ban all cheaters but cheating issue is significantly less Also we had id system in MM before. The phone number. Valve removed it to help cheaters. Just like they removed overwatch

    @BlizzardCS one game of overwatch competitive I'd like to not play a team of all people on new accounts who are smurfing. Literally is a problem yet you guys don't address it. Ruins my experience playing and never can progress even at low ranks of competitive

    did the overwatch servers just crash for a second…

    @KurtJP35 I can a guarantee they saw the success of Overwatch since this happened in 2017 and pivoted because of that. They truly are scared of doing their own thing and would rather chase trends in service of making more money

    @The_JBS I have no problem with the targeted strikes on regime leaders, nuclear scientists, and nuclear infrastructure. Providing intelligence and overwatch with planes and ships.

    when flats said this game is about mental it really is, this guy had bad mental every game i played with him. like i understand you wanna win but yelling at your team isn’t gonna fix the problem and i feel like if everyone in overwatch had that mentality it would be a better game
