    @sassynicole36 I can understand. When I first started playing Halo (dual analog stick FPS) I used to get bad headaches because I could see what I wanted to do but my fingers… And my son whizzes around in Minecraft and even Overwatch; no problems

    OVERWATCH: "Competitive Play has been temporarily disabled while we address a technical issue." "The issue? Well, technically, we work in a place run by ****** white guys who abuse their power and won't allow unions or workers' rights."

  • Coley2202 Coley💜 (@Coley2202) reported

    Overwatch is broken

  • ian_c22 Ian Gouws (@ian_c22) reported

    @ricky05701275 @Blizzard_Ent I concur, customer support is useless, I've discovered a problem in Overwatch which they are COMPLETELY oblivious about. It is the most ridiculous thing in the whole wide world!!!

  • anj_ow ANJ_ow (@anj_ow) reported

    @fREQUENCYCS just optimized my PC and Windows and it's actually fixed my fps issues for Overwatch. Hit him up for a fix he does things that you can't find online.

  • BootlegGirl Dr. Ellie Lockhart, Out of Touch Coastal Ellie (@BootlegGirl) reported from Seattle, Washington

    That said, I think the whole discourse around trans issues means I see fewer female characters in online games played by men, except in cases where they’re premade and not just aesthetic (Overwatch, etc) it used to be a lot more common

  • SINNERMIKEE 💋 ϻƗЌE𝐄 ✨🌟 (@SINNERMIKEE) reported

    damn 4 game win streak on dps just for overwatch comp servers to crash :(

  • The_Real_Dino76 Kyle (@The_Real_Dino76) reported

  • Chaser4Realz Chaser (@Chaser4Realz) reported

    @LeafStorm10 @CrashBandicoot It’s perfectly okay to stop playing Blizzard Games like Overwatch, but what did Crash Bandicoot do aside from not being developed by Blizzard?

  • pclarkee pshhhh (@pclarkee) reported

    @BlizzardCS Oh are y’all finally addressing the toxicity in the Overwatch comp community or possibly how the SR system is broken

  • trippytripdrip Waterrrr𖤐 (@trippytripdrip) reported

    @MamoruGyun @TheGrimsy Sooo like Tracer from overwatch basically and the Tempest “ glitch “ from bo3 yeah not a good idea

  • layze_stuff LayZe (@layze_stuff) reported

    Are the Overwatch servers being DDOS'd or something?

  • ShonMorgen Sʜoɴ (@ShonMorgen) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN Good day, I cannot connect to the Overwatch servers from the log on page. I tried all the support steps and still not working. (pc reboot, router reboot, ip flush, etc) My World of Warcraft connects perfectly fine. Please assist. Thanks

  • FrootyOW Frooty (@FrootyOW) reported

    @PlayOverwatch OVERWATCH DOWN PLEASE I WAS KICKED MID COMPETITIVE GAME AND I CAN'T LOGIN NOW PLEASE I WAS BANGING AS LUCIO GET ME BACK IN HERE

  • The_Empowerer TheEmpowerer (@The_Empowerer) reported

    @Ttgora @bxbblegumbarbie @LAGladiators No ****, it’s not like I don’t ******* play widow. She’s an easy *** character and sure you have to aim but in a game like overwatch with how long the ttk’s are a 1 shot hitscan is ******* annoying and broken.

  • anj_ow ANJ_ow (@anj_ow) reported

    Frequency just optimized my PC and Windows and it's actually fixed my fps issues for Overwatch. Hit him up for a fix he does things that you can't find online. @fREQUENCYCS

  • CaptAwesomeIRL Gaming’s Most Positive Pillar (@CaptAwesomeIRL) reported

    @rickthedamned The issue that I’m having is the bullying and harassment i get, as well as the negativity surrounding blizzard and it’s lawsuits. Even when I’m not playing Overwatch i still get people sending me hate messages and comments. So being away from it is probably the best thing for me

  • 2hufacts Nina (@2hufacts) reported

    @UrbanNightmare_ I think the problem with overwatch is that it was taken too seriously. The goofy and more casual parts of the game got removed cuz blizzard wanted their next big esports scene or whatever

  • atomicui Zach (@atomicui) reported

    Overwatch really be kicking me out every time I try to join a game…. fix the servers

  • jamaistaes ¹²⁷min⁷🧈 (@jamaistaes) reported
