  • RVYUYUWANPI ニャン兵衛 (@RVYUYUWANPI) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Please do something about Overwatch's server error, I can't play a decent rival match

  • ThirtyFramesFPS Jerome Lewis (@ThirtyFramesFPS) reported

    I mean clearly none of you Apex pros were going to stay on Overwatch in the long run anyway. The problem with OW 1 was the quality of rank games, and that still remains a problem for players that don't exceed at their role.

  • ryoukarma Ryoukarma (@ryoukarma) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent Fix Overwatch lag plz

  • rohnan01 Rohnan (@rohnan01) reported

    Making Mcree's flash into a better Tracer pulse bomb is probably the only issue I have with current Overwatch, that and all junkrat and genji players Here's an idea, make tracers pulse bomb do more damage, and have the heat sinking feature mcrees has!

  • agiotafds Void (@agiotafds) reported

    @MoMoBadi @mL7support Ok, and where he is wrong tho ? Valorant is literally a "i see u first" game, where you can hold the same pixel afk for 12 minutes Overwatch if you're above silver/gold, there's always something happening, and you NEED to play a different style every game, to fix the comps

  • LuckiiTucky Tucky (@LuckiiTucky) reported

    kinda surprised that overwatch's solution to the bastion problem was to just, remove him completely? the bug seemed pretty easy to fix; its just if you press Q and LMB at the same time during ult. I can't imagine takes long to fix that, but maybe their killswitch is easier

  • barrygeuse barry 🪲 (@barrygeuse) reported

    overwatch two is fine i guess but why do the models glitch through the floor constantly. i keep seeing my teammates in the actual ground. where are they going

  • shinigamiibabe Shini-Death God vtuber (@shinigamiibabe) reported

    This past week my pc has been shutting off on its own while Overwatch 2 is being played. I have hopefully found a couple things to fix that soon so streams for drop can continue!

  • kajmelo kaj (@kajmelo) reported

    @MrMooseVA i think the problem is neither valorant nor overwatch players know how to play the other game well at all

  • Ray8ot RayBot (@Ray8ot) reported

    @kwabikimothy Nah overwatch doesn’t suck. I think it might be a skill issue on your part.

  • TinfoilDurag Tinfoil Durag (@TinfoilDurag) reported

    @bdaso80 @Jtran224 @Arikadou The problem is halo infinite is the only game that does that and we're talking about overwatch.

  • katanire (@katanire) reported

    overwatch is the reason i have anger issues

  • BeamEmDown cal (@BeamEmDown) reported

    @Schoolyy @RogueCompany @TheWalkingDead Not currently but they have and quickly respond to community concerns consistently for the likes of apex and overwatch, how long have big issues stayed in this game, 6 months? That's happened multiple times

  • hakujinthehuman Haku Jin (@hakujinthehuman) reported

    did they fix the Overwatch lag/teleporting madness yet?

  • Xenosyte 👽Xenosyte👽💉💉💉 (@Xenosyte) reported

    My overwatch 2 comp rank experience: Initially placed bronze 5 (7-3. Feels a lil harsh but okay), went up to bronze 3 after 7 wins, then got demoted? after winning 7 more to bronze 4, and now after 14 wins -- still in bronze 4. This actually feels broken. Blizzard please explain

  • firerwolf Firerwolf (@firerwolf) reported

    My problem with Overwatch 2 is that it still has the problem of the original. It gets repetitive pretty quickly. Arcade should be able to eliminate that issue but with no limitations on characters arcade is just not fun so unranked is the only option. Which is repetitive

  • GR1323587357 GR=13 (@GR1323587357) reported

    @BlizzardCS The sever attacks got me banned from competitive play, overwatch is punishing me because the game wasn’t ready to play yet. Error Lc shutdown my game mid match, for an issue completely out of my control I should not banned for the rest of season 1.

  • cqnrad connie (@cqnrad) reported

    @theMoneyFolder positioning in tac shooters isnt "harder" it's just punished much easier. if you're out of position in overwatch your character probably has an ability to get yourself out of trouble or can just run away bc of higher ttk, in val you'd just simply get one tapped and die

  • tarotapioka ヒカリ🔞🌹 CF15 E20 @ ICE BSD (@tarotapioka) reported

    Can anyone help me?? I was playing overwatch and for some reason my game keeps on being "buggy". Idk if it's graphics card issue 😭

  • KingCarneyy BabyJesus (@KingCarneyy) reported

    @Jashin2k Literally been on Overwatch for past week cuz they refuse to fix these bugs

  • TheRealYSKA YSKA | ECLIPSE NOMAD ECLIPSE (@TheRealYSKA) reported

    It's disappointing to me that I can't play Overwatch 2 with the homie because of constant failed log in attempts where it's no issues my end.... Fix your **** @Blizzard_Ent

  • ThatDarnKatz__ 𝓴𝓪𝓽🔪 (@ThatDarnKatz__) reported

    @pekesims Overwatch 1 was never fixed and they released OW2 and its even more broken. Sims 4 has so many bugs, what makes you think Sims 5 is gonna be any better? Remember sims is an EA game, a company notoriously known for releasing broken games.

  • MrMesh13 MrMeth (Birthday today🎂🔥) (@MrMesh13) reported

    @_exofn @ItzJessicalol I’m ngl I played overwatch today aswell. No such problems therr. Just fortnite.

  • Kyle75455160 Kyle (@Kyle75455160) reported

    @OverwatchEU Overwatch why arnt u listening to anyone about your absolute broken dlc game what u call a sequel! Your career stats don’t work! AT ALLLL!! Your competitive ranking system is so buggy it’s not even worth playing! Wow you guys have got to be the worst I’ve ever seen for responding

  • _hypercolor the moon deceives (@_hypercolor) reported

    Sombra Nerfs from a Sombra main: #Overwatch #Overwatch2 #Sombra Sombra’s issue right now is that her hack has a low cooldown and it locks you out for close to two seconds and a damage boost. She can keep 2 but one has to go. But….

  • adylaineart Ady Laine Art ✨ STICKERCONMNL '22 (@adylaineart) reported

    Last I played Overwatch was in S7, and I feel like a crippled bird with broken wings as Mercy coming back now. Her Guardian Angel (and her ult) used to be so much better :<

  • Charlieboy617 Charlieboy617 (@Charlieboy617) reported

    I find it funny how people who made videos on overwatch 2 all talk about the server issues like they were a permanent problem when most multiplayer games have that at launch especially free to play games. The issue was gone in less than a week lmao

  • dramalama190 dramalama19 (@dramalama190) reported

    Sorry guys for the stream having issues with the internet for some reason I guess I'm just to good at overwatch lol I'll see y'all tonight hopefully

  • RedistrictGirl Redistrict Girl (@RedistrictGirl) reported

    @gwenckatz As for video games, well... their reliance on running franchises for decades makes the problem worse, especially in the case of Nintendo, whose dedicated fans are rapidly approaching Disney Adult-tier. But the success of Overwatch and Fortnite actually give me hope.

  • marvomufc marvo (@marvomufc) reported

    Why does overwatch 2 crash so much on pc?
