I'm Thinking about streaming more, I should take advantage of it now while I'm not working, but this cold is still kicking my *** and putting me to sleep. Other than overwatch, I don't even know what to stream 😭

I wasn’t even mad at the overwatch content. I just waited for stuff I liked for him to post tbh and didn’t ***** but I got mad when he basically tried to pull a wall over our eyes instead of being a man and actually addressing the issue.

@BlizzardCS I just got COMPLETELY screwed over doing an Overwatch challenge - servers disconnect me in the middle of my last match (had 8 of the 9 wins) when we were winning and then game wouldn't let me rejoin. Please help with this asap I'm so angry

@GloriousKev I liked Overwatch, until the obsession with balance patching kept ruining it for me. My issue with Valorant is that I think Riot games is a trash company and no game should have cosmetic microtransactions that cost more then an actual game.

@IceRocks @BlizzardCS its totally the drivers. something like this happened previously and they had to roll back the patch. the overwatch patch just doesnt like my drivers. i hope i gave them enough to fix this.

the only way to play overwatch is duoing with a dps player and pocketing them cause solo queue is just not working fam

@ALK4L1NE So you're temps look good, your drivers are updated, you checked ram and connections inside the computer. Could be something like not enough space on your drive. If you really can't identify the issue maybe you just reinstall windows again. Also reinstall overwatch if u haven't.

@Blizzard_Ent Dear blizzard I’m a overwatch player. And I’m Chinese. I like to watch overwatch live stream on Chinese app. And I found a serious problem, NTES run overwatch in China. But they don’t care about the cheating behavior. They customer service is also sucks.

Many Super Smash Bros. games are ugly but most of them would be long if they had a **** probe, Mega Buster, and Overwatch Standard Issue Pulse Rifle

@JezCorden The only games on that list I would take personal issue with would be State of Decay 2 & Overwatch (just don't like Overwatch). What would I replace them with? Not sure, but definitely Sunset Overdrive, if for no other reason than it's impact on world traversal design. It...1/2

Looks like I cannot stream Overwatch anymore. Unless I figure out why it is causing it to glitch so much.

@BlizzardCS When you choose one of the overwatch league skins for Genji. ("Contender" I believe) It shows the portrait as a black box. I don't know if it just me but I saw it on another Genji with the same issue through death cam

@Papichu43070532 The issue with Activision is that it's merged with Blizzard and all they'd need to do was announce Overwatch 2 is in development and wait :(

@Blizzard_Ent so I love overwatch, great game, but just had a guy openly admit to smurfing cause he is sick of the smurfs at his rank. Its a problem through every rank in the game and its ruining every players experience so why ignore it and let the game die?

ATLA, Genshin, IT, Dragon Age, (previously) Overwatch. Some I def criticize more than others, but I am very aware that they all have their issues. Honestly i think i actually whole heartedly enjoy the things i DONT hyperfixate on more.

@BlizzardCS Thank you for the info. It even said "server error" and it didn't let me reconnect to the match. I still had to spend the 15 minute suspension and lost a bunch of SR due to it. #Overwatch

@asupekt @LayugZachary Overwatch has an issue with being overturned. Nerfing > Buffing 9 times out of 10 in the current state of the game. Well designed hero’s aren’t good because other hero’s are just more op and can do more easier. Bad take.

Overwatch needs to fix matchmaking in Comp I just played 4 comp matches and lost all of them because my team don't know what they're doing. Before that I Won 5 QPC matches with max damage

@JessGOAT This game has been out for years and it is sad to see that they haven't invested in a High end Cheat system similar to Fortnite and Overwatch to stop these DDoS'ers and hacks from wreaking havoc. 😔

I am super super happy with the fact I bought an ethernet cable. Could do with being 2 metres longer as I did have to rearrange my desk and move my ps4 to make room but I could actually stream Overwatch at 720p and have no lag whatsoever.

@SamitoFPS Sad that they couldn’t repair her. She (as a character) is great in the overwatch story and I like her. But she causes issues.
