@khuantru @PlayOverwatch I have so much sympathy for the poor people working on a game when a new live service game launches, especially one with as many moving parts as this. It must be so stressful. (If you're reading this Overwatch team, thanks for your hard work!)

Anyone else getting framedrops in Overwatch 2? Mine goes from 200fps+ to 40fps on occasion and frankly it's getting annoying. Any suggestions for a fix?

@Xbox I was playing overwatch 2 and when I went into chat my elite series 2 became completely unresponsive. It wouldn’t turn off or respond to being plugged in or holding the Bluetooth button. The only way I could fix it was by restarting console. Please fix this

Are people really surprised that Overwatch 2's launch was borked. Endless Queues. Server connection issues, kafkaesque account verification. Then the typical battle pass gone awful, putting the new characters in it. Also new players need 100+ games to unlock all OW1 characters?

Did Overwatch 2 really get DDoS'd, or do Blizzard just have **** servers? I can't remember a single WoW expansion that didn't have similar problems at launch... 🤔

i just love how overwatch 2 is suffering the same problems as among us did when that game blew up, except its a game by a company not a couple of devs :nerd: pathetic

Looking at the memes of people complaining about the long queue in Overwatch 2, knowing that when they got to the front, they got an error message and were chucked to the back of the line again. I get to be a grizzled veteran watching hope die in the eyes of new recruits.

Everyones dunking on Overwatch 2 but like: - Free but requires phone number, so hopefully no bot problem will come up - Just feels like a big update pack - Pmuch the exact same game but there are people actually online now This is my impression after playing 1 match.

@lunaaureli @BrianTLinder Unless mom's on the same plan that's the whole reason why I'm cricket rn is family lol kinda tough but also a funny suggestion not sure what else to do for now maybe find a buddy with another service that is post-paid who isn't playing overwatch? This is ridiculous in my opinion

Another postponed stream. Man, I did not expect Overwatch 2 to be struck by a DDoS attack. Then again, I also would not expect the game to be better than it's predecessor.

@aaronkellerOW @PlayOverwatch Hey I was just wondering I got into the game early this morning and when I got in I had purchased the overwatch 2 watchpoint pack before launch but now I don’t have it. Is there a way I can fix this? Or is it a issue that is being addressed on blizzards end?

@namelesssskingg @PlayOverwatch @ATVIAssist I did too. Just still having the same issue. Did you merge you old Overwatch 1 account? I’m trying to pinpoint my problem. I don’t understand how my partners profile on my console works fine but mine doesn’t?
