    @Blizzard_Ent how am I supposed to login into overwatch, If I don't have a phone number?

  • GabbyDLP Gabby (@GabbyDLP) reported

    Overwatch community not realizing that for some of these Korean players they have to think about their military service and visas being affected by their OWL contracts along with just not understanding basic contracting is seriously weird. Google is still free for now USE IT.

  • GeorgeMcShavi GeorgeMcShavi (@GeorgeMcShavi) reported

    @ImperialHal Respawn keeps ignoring issues that has been plaguing the game for seasons, no wonder players are leaving the game. Me and my friends would rather play overwatch than deal with apex.

  • MidnightEd3n Midnight (@MidnightEd3n) reported

    About 1 in 4 times when I join a group VC in Overwatch, it says it's having issues and disconnects me from the game. This has been happening since the beginning of #Overwatch2 Why? 😭

  • CloudRaids CloudRaids (@CloudRaids) reported

    OverWatch 2 in a nutshell: .No Communication in games .No Rewards .No Rank Progress Tracker .Expensive skins that look cheap .Broken characters that don’t get balanced .No loot boxes .****** Push Game mode Overall just a worse version of the old game. #Overwatch2

  • drewdiddy611 Andrew Senner (@drewdiddy611) reported

    @BlizzardCS jesus, how long is it gonna take to fix the stupid empty friends list bug in Overwatch... Like, really? Release a whole new game and include bugs from the first game... BTW OW1 is way better than OW2.

  • teamisthestar09 jacob 🧊 (@teamisthestar09) reported

    my overwatch 2 stats are not tracking in the career profile tab. anyone know how to fix this? i’m trying to get to 50 wins so i can unlock ranked. it says i’ve only played 9 games all time (lol)

  • _jak06 jak (@_jak06) reported

    @CrypticAR Yeah I have to agree, overwatch just brought so many characters and every time they do a patch, there is a new meta Next patch there is a tank who is already broken, turns even more broken 😭😭😭

  • Rosavatar1 Rosavatar | 🏳️‍🌈🎗️ (@Rosavatar1) reported

    I'm gonna try to stream some friendly scrims with my old Overwatch teammates later tonight at 6 pm (pst)!! I'll have to test if I can play without lagging however, so no promises

  • jcbmrnz1 MineWorld (@jcbmrnz1) reported

    For Some reason they removed Mei from OverWatch 2 I don't know why but I don't know they removed her does anyone have the same issue ?

  • Mestupid24468 albert (@Mestupid24468) reported

    @PowerGPU It just needs to be able ti handle games like overwatch and won't crash also handle some shaders on minecraft

  • MICOLITHE_TXT MICOLITHE.TXT (@MICOLITHE_TXT) reported

    So what you're putting in a day's work for today" like it. No ethical consumption under capitalism doesn't mean you play overwatch 2 because you are pregnant in the front office, which were adhered in such a broken tactic Realizing not everything was obligated to my personal fold

  • EricGreenCan 😳😳GreenCan😳😳 (@EricGreenCan) reported

    Last time I played Overwatch I got called a hamburger American by an Eastern European man with broken English who kept asking me to make oink noises

  • jcbmrnz1 MineWorld (@jcbmrnz1) reported

    For some reason they removed Mei from OverWatch 2 I don't know why because I looked on the hero gallery and she's not even there does anyone have the same issue I need to get feedback from blizzard because she's not even on the list I think they even removed her

  • JetStorm18 Jet D Storm🔞 (@JetStorm18) reported

    @kippurpuppygirl Me playing overwatch and having the same issue

  • dezyrablebun Dezyrable (@dezyrablebun) reported

    Why did launching Overwatch crash my entire PC…???

  • Ash_Noir Ashley🦊 (@Ash_Noir) reported

    Zarya is over powered. I'm just throwing that out there. Blizzard is reworking mei, next mercy and moira for the thousand time. What next? But forget about zayra. Her bubble is soo broken. #overwatch #blizzard #overwatchzarya

  • grizzzgang 🐻🇺🇦 (@grizzzgang) reported

    Zarya single handedly makes overwatch not fun anymore. I legitimately hate playing this game now and it’s 100% because of Zarya. Probably just gonna drop the game completely until blizzard decides to fix it. It’s unplayable and she’s in every single lobby

  • WddlP Waddle (@WddlP) reported

    The character assassination of the characters in Overwatch 2 is my biggest problem with the game

  • RiskIsBricked Risk (@RiskIsBricked) reported

    dawg overwatch ranked is broken, i was bronze 3 i win 6 games in a row, lose one and win the next one and got placed bronze 3 again?? even though i have a positive winrate?

  • dawnskullemoji Dawn (@dawnskullemoji) reported

    @TheMacroShow I never minded loot boxes in video games. Take Overwatch for example. Purely cosmetic with mostly no pay to win kind of things in there. Plus, greatest of all, you could earn them for free by playing the game. As long as they are implemented with care, I dont see a huge issue.

  • linarialdaara Linari🍖 Chubby Kotobuki (@linarialdaara) reported

    I haven’t clout chased enough today, I need my fix. Computer, please concoct me one (1) tweet about how bad Overwatch is and that the devs are awful people. And make sure to insult every one of my friends that play the game as well. I need it extra juicy today~

  • DreamWeaver02 Jay-cub (@DreamWeaver02) reported

    Overwatch NEEDS to fix their servers. I'm tired of getting kicked mid game.

  • hannahjean_s Hannah Stone (@hannahjean_s) reported

    y’all need to pay attention to enemy markers in overwatch 2 i marked this player wiping out team who stayed in the same spot undefeated 3 wiped until i switched from mercy to widowmaker, sniped them to solve the PROBLEM and and then everyone got MAD AT ME?????

  • _ultraego_ 𝕴𝖛𝖆𝖓 (@_ultraego_) reported

  • Kenvuss Kenvus (@Kenvuss) reported

    @SirLagsalot9 @HoshizoraOW Stop complaining all your doing is Absolutely nothing so Yes someone Put a DDOS attack on OVERWATCH servers so deal with it I am sorry that it doesn’t meet your standards but no one cares so it is either you like the game or you don’t So make up your mind there is no buts in it.
