  • simonsandrew Andrew (@simonsandrew) reported

    @BlizzardCS Imagine if we could all play Overwatch 1 while we waited for them to fix the “sequel”? What a world that wild be!

  • DarkMU2 Rias Black (@DarkMU2) reported

    Ummm @Blizzard_Ent I know for a fact i played the first OverWatch, I owned and played the Origins Edition...so why are nearly all the characters locked to me? I'm not a new player, please fix this thanks.

  • HopeJustice1938 Colin Cochrane (@HopeJustice1938) reported

    I've seen some people say that the DDoS attack may just be Blizzard making excuses, and...well, that wouldn't surprise me given what we know about them. Whatever the case, I think Overwatch 2 is going over about how I expected. I'm going to bed now. Good night!

    Already have several hours of Overwatch 2: Login Error Failed to Connect to Server Please Try Again Later under my belt

  • gReEnGuY_4 💛🍊 Scary Spice Latte 🧋 (@gReEnGuY_4) reported

    I can’t get innnnnnnnnnnn Overwatch 2! I keep getting the login error and a million players ahead of me 😭😭 I feel like Activision/Blizzard knew 17.24 Billion people were going to play today, so they should have purchased more servers, etc. This is crazy! I blame Queen Naija.

  • BayGamby Gamby (@BayGamby) reported

    I hate overwatch mf 60 people ahead of me then crash

  • SovaCatWasTaken Activating VantageCat (SovaCat) (@SovaCatWasTaken) reported

    Just waited an hour or 2 in Overwatch queue just for it to disconnect me and send me to the back of the queue 😌

  • mttce123 Mr. Nobody (@mttce123) reported

    @Qwik I hope the issue can be resolved by tonight, I was so hoping to hop into some Overwatch before work. Wishing you all the best

  • Crystar800 Crystar (@Crystar800) reported

    Wasn't aware that the Overwatch sequel was titled Overwatch 2: Unexpected Server Error Occurred

  • AminyChuy C H U Y🧬⚙️ VTuber (PNG ARC) (@AminyChuy) reported

    So all your stuff from Overwatch 1 like skins, level and such was supposed to transfer to Overwatch 2, but a lot of people, including myself, had their entire accounts wiped when transferred lol. Feel a little relieved knowing its a bug. Hoping they fix it soon.

  • Why_Envyyy Envy 🖤🗝 (@Why_Envyyy) reported

    my overwatch is not working after hours later…

  • JoJoBean_26 xCaptain_Cold (@JoJoBean_26) reported

    So Overwatch 2 are servers down rn??

  • SolarWarden11 Brody (@SolarWarden11) reported

    @DW0627 @MiguelStein11 @overwatch This version of the game. It's completely new game architecture and engine, yes it replaced and updated OW1, but as far as the servers and engines it's brand new. As had been up since noon. And like I said it's (supposedly) getting DDoS attacked which takes a bit to stop.

  • hlangforddd • H a n n a h • (@hlangforddd) reported

    @BlizzardCS just fix overwatch 2

  • sigmagrindset33 f you (@sigmagrindset33) reported

    @VelvetFrost97 @BlizzardCS I mean it is acceptable, a game as massive as overwatch being relaunched is destined to have issues with queue times as the servers stabilise, you just don’t know the actual impact of hundreds of thousands trying to log in at the same time

  • max_itss ItssMaxG (@max_itss) reported

    Well, over the last 7 hours I have succeeded to get into Overwatch 2 once, and have had time to carry half a match with Junker Queen. IT’S 5 AM AND I’M STILL WAITING FIX THE DAMN PROBLEM ALREADY.

  • Hey_Karsten Hey_Karsten (@Hey_Karsten) reported

    We’re at almost 7 hours since the launch of Overwatch 2 and they still haven’t done anything about the servers. @BlizzardCS and @PlayOverwatch haven’t given any updates to the situation except that it’s an apparent DDoS attack… which is an *** excuse

  • Cat_Cicada Gatetor (@Cat_Cicada) reported

    @Stylosa Fun fact, there was a guy on reddit (and I belive he's on top on Overwatch's reddit) 6y ago thay wanted a weeb supp to fix the lack of supports on OW, he won in the end

  • BuckblindDH Cory "Buck" Hostetter 💙 (@BuckblindDH) reported

    I’ve never played Overwatch, nor do I really plan on it, but man, DDOS attacks on launch day are the absolute worst. I feel for ya’ll…

  • oakayla K Jouet (@oakayla) reported

    Is anyone else having issues with their Overwatch history not moving to Overwatch 2? I linked my Xbox account so that I could play on PC and nothing is there :/

  • Hydralz_ Hydralz (@Hydralz_) reported
