  @PlayHearthstone Anything with battlegrounds?. Winning with Diablo doesn't offer any kind of reward or achievement. He's either broken or completely awful to play. Always wondered if we would see Diablo/starcraft/overwatch crossovers in hearthstone but Diablo sucks.

  The biggest problem with overwatch is that people are so used to being carried and having other people do the work for them that they forget it's a team game. So when you have heroes that actually need the help it's not there cuz player are babysat.

  @BlizzardCS #overwatch on consoles is having intermittent lag through menu options and during gameplay. It's almost like rubber banding. Network 43MS, no ping issues with the computer. Only console not working properly.

  So these mf's really think they just need new people for Overwatch and that'll totally avoid all the problems of old Overwatch

  @LouisOprisa @AirCycle The biggest shame for those people is they are locked out of multiplayer games, which is why a lot of people play games in the first place. You can't apply these things to online play. I mean Overwatch ran into this issue when they let console users get run over by PC users.

  @overwatch2watch I've been an avid player of Overwatch since the beta. Almost 3 years ago you announced OW 2. Why do you keep pushing it back when the original release date was 2019-2020. AND FIX YOUR MATCH MAKING !! 3 WEEKS OF GETTING ROLLED OR ROLLING THE OTHER TEAM. MATCH making sucks.

  @TwitForcedAcct @shyux2 Lol first thing I could think of. I play ******** out of Overwatch so sorta a hypocrite bit you know what I mean. Everyone ELSE is dumb, everyone ELSE is the problem. Never me. That gamer philosophy. And the tightass that runs it probably got beat up every day in school

  @dreamwastaken hey man I forgot to stream for like a month but I am a die hard overwatch gamer and I can't help but play it even tho it lowers my overall quality of live because there has been no updates in months and all the characters are broken and there are no new maps and 2cp exists and

  @BlizzardCS Seems console players are having weird in game lag, where their characters are spinning in place. It's happening everywhere. Did you know? Is a fix coming? #Overwatch

  @EskayOW @Flats_OW Overwatch 2 is Blizzard's "I'll do my homework in the morning". Just pushing your problems down the line.

  @CSGO Now that major is over Its time for business as usual! Overwatch broken by spinbots and blatant wallhackers & aimbots in every other ranked or unracked prime Match you start! GG guys! Please continue ignoring the most obvious issue of the game, The lack of an effective Anticheat!

  What makes overwatch so bad? I have fun playing it. I just don’t like when people don’t do there job. Though it doesn’t become an over the top issue.

  @KinghoboVTuber I think my biggest problem is I'm so used to Overwatch. Infinite ammo, insanely powerful special attacks, Mercy being a Giga Chad healer, etc. None of the handicaps are there, so I have to unlearn all my bad habits. I'll give it some time, grab some friends, and see how it goes.

  the only issue i really ran into was overwatch dropped the stream quality by a bit and i'm not very technical savvy when it comes to streaming so i dunno what to do about that but art streams and stardew valley worked pretty well!

  :D my console keeps shutting me down we playing overwatch live till i scream or cri in frustration that i cant stream with a broken console :3

  FROMAN (@thatfromanshow) reported 35 minutes ago

  @theTIVANshow @SimJC74 @CoD I think I tried to warn your brother, this game was going to be pretty bad. The maps look like they're trying to be Battlefield. The voting at the end of the match is from Overwatch. The "pacing" (number of players) or whatever it's called is broken. Hot mess...

  The people that play Overwatch are actually a bigger problem than the game itself.

  Who is the most broken and annoying Hero in Overwatch and why is it doomfist? he's a hero with above average health gaining through every ability additional shield and has potential to one hit every hero that is not a tank + it stuns and its only 4sec on cool down

  @jackyboi147 ohhh right yeah not awfully familiar w overwatch so I wouldn't know yeah kinda like that but in matches where you're the villain it could be you're just your own hero but like grayscale or sth don't think it should be an issue where there's just heroes around

  Did anyone get that glitch with their Blizzard launcher having crash errors for an hour yesterday? Also today my launcher says Overwatch updating everytime I close out of Overwatch and will "update" everything for ten seconds

  @goodalexander I get what you mean and have also been checking out ATVI but the main issue is the structural ones internally that are now affecting development of new releases very obviously like Diablo and overwatch

  @ItsAmmon Overwatch had become infested with cheaters and I just wanted to do something else for once. Cheaters in roblox are easy to spot so they're hardly a problem. also there's so much stuff to play
