  • zidise ran (@zidise) reported

    Miskas like. hes such an ******* in a good way in like he olays valorant until 6 am every night and thats where all his issues come from hes like so sleep deprived from insomnia and overwatch or whatever that he hallucinates his own dead mom in the hallway and it ruins his mood

  • SaveCats7 Mitchell Wilfong (@SaveCats7) reported

    @BlizzardCS I saw a thread that you replied to about lag on Overwatch for Xbox. I am struggling with lag and frame skips on Xbox as well. My account was affected with the login issue with the wonderland update. The recent update fixed the login issue, but has been laggy since.

  • fairlyinactive Icky (@fairlyinactive) reported

    @ShantaKyrie The last satisfying Trophy I got was Overwatch. That was tough stuff I can't remember my most recent one, probably FF XV but I just cba doing it anymore, I am truly broken

  • sr_kiiva Subliminal Message Girl from Spongebob (@sr_kiiva) reported

    Overwatch won't stop lagging

  • SaveCats7 Mitchell Wilfong (@SaveCats7) reported

    @BlizzardCS Yes I uninstalled it and reinstalled it multiple times since the wonderland update. I also deleted the save data stored on the system itself and then restored the data. It’s only Overwatch that is laggy. I haven’t had any problems with Overwatch before the winter update.

  • BrayKujo Bray. (@BrayKujo) reported

    Overwatch needs to fix up their ****** game. Accidental DC's due to lag and you get suspended from comp but yet you join back and win the game. Its so ******* ****.

  • ASiebos88 Athanasios Siebos (@ASiebos88) reported

    @PlayOverwatch YOUR MATCHMAKING SUUUUUUCKS!! Please fix this, its ruined the game… #Overwatch

  • 21stcenturyblu1 The Hellon show (@21stcenturyblu1) reported

    Its so weird that valorant decides that adding more cc to the game is good for it, and overwatch has had this problem for years now

  • NGaming88 EcG NobleWarrior88 (@NGaming88) reported

    @aydan I used to have this issue in Overwatch where Nvidia GeForce experience would render the game at 200% by default and cause it to crash

  • AmourTeddy Mulanie Amour (@AmourTeddy) reported

    My main issue with overwatch is that people are constantly talking **** the whole match. Imagine focusing time you could be using to play to talk ****. Make that make sense.

  • gkrnours 🌺 L. Coues (@gkrnours) reported

    @Nibellion @CaseyExplosion I thought overwatch 2 was a strawman used by blizzard to distract people from real issue?

  • pampurins ━ ♡ pampurin (@pampurins) reported

    True that if Lego cuts ties with Blizzard bc of all the issues, Goodsmile might too and we will not have anymore Overwatch nendoroids or figmas, Reinhardt was the last one and it didn't really sell as much.

  • 413scod pj (@413scod) reported

    me: acab!! the police system is broken!! overwatch police skin dva: what was that me: nothin babe haha

  • CrownCosmo Cosmo 👑🔞 (@CrownCosmo) reported

    Was talking about CP2077 and got onto delays “Yeah, that’s why I’m not bothered that Overwatch 2 is taking its time, as long as it’s good” “Nothing can fix OW2 tho, it sucks” “Well I like it lol” “Everyone hates it now, a sequel can’t save it” “Point taken” “Bliz is terrible…”

  • axeman__ Axe (@axeman__) reported

    @PH7RAOH that would require enough players on overwatch to cause server issues to begin with

  • RemarkablyDope Diabolical 🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹 (@RemarkablyDope) reported

    Is overwatch the worst live service game out right now??

  • honeymellilla honeymellilla (@honeymellilla) reported

    @PlayVALORANT i dont think the fix is disabling the practice range/customs because your servers are ****, i think the solution is shutting down the game for maintenance and fixing your ****** servers. not even blizzard would close the overwatch practice range or custom games lmao

  • TheReal_ClamBoi ClamBoi (@TheReal_ClamBoi) reported

    @PlayOverwatch hey for the past 3 days overwatch has been unplayable with the amount of lag.

  • astruhchan Serena ♡ (@astruhchan) reported

    if respawn isn’t careful, apex will suffer from the overwatch problem 😬😬😬

  • AreisReising Procedural Drew Process (@AreisReising) reported

    @LolOverruled Funny story: My friend started using "Cynthia Nixon" as an Overwatch username a few years ago. He then kept using it for other things, and I finally had to stop him when he told me he "nabbed it" as his New York State benefits portal login.

  • Kirvyx kirvyx (@Kirvyx) reported

    @CrownCosmo Talking about overwatch or anything activision or blizzard related is straight up not possible because everything connected to them feels wrong to talk about considering the state of the company and how they got out of it without any problems

  • Overture_Lilac Overture (@Overture_Lilac) reported

    Outside of COD Crash and Overwatch I deadass can't name any games made by Activision/Blizzard

  • Spazerbeams &Drew (@Spazerbeams) reported

    @nemesismess If they released a version of overwatch that's just the launch version before they removed duplicate characters, changed my main 3 ******* times, and released a broken character that completely changed the meta I think I'd put a bunch of time into it again.

  • HenesysPark Soundless 🐨 (@HenesysPark) reported

    @RonimoGames Make a sequel to nauts (doesn’t even have to be a moba), just do something with the IP. Or hell you could go the Overwatch 2 route and have co-op be the focus, with comp as an optional game mode. Even just a polish patch to fix the current remaining bugs would be enough.

  • ZzVinniez VinnieDraw🔞 (@ZzVinniez) reported

    @Vzx80078208 Overwatch ana amari mask. Im sure u can get it fron aliexpress or fado. Just because it might end up broken like mine. But i fixed it

  • Tavinchimo Tavinchimoxd (@Tavinchimo) reported

    @NaToSaphiX idk about overwatch not working but the notifications you are supposed to get when someone you report gets banned definitely dont work

  • Bapwockal Ethan (@Bapwockal) reported

    People keep talking about Overwatch 2 as if Blizzard's gonna get it right and fix the series

  • goddessZel1 goddess Zel (@goddessZel1) reported

    Overwatch fix your bugs I got kick out of match before I've even join it. your competitive to many bugs at this point I won't want to play if I get falsely kick out of match's or I won't want to buy Overwatch 2.

  • yumi_ow Yumi 🇪🇪 (@yumi_ow) reported

  • N7Kobold Kobold (@N7Kobold) reported

    @fibblewib @verge I haven’t spent money on overwatch since I got it in 2016 so I guess I’m not part of the problem
