@KarQGames There's a bug that happened quite a while ago. It said a game called overwatch 2 was being made. Obviously this was just a technical glitch/bug on blizzards behalf

you know im having trouble thinking of a multiplayer game that has more contempt for its playerbase as a whole than overwatch

@ZeddyHS Between the crazy blizzard stuff and broken quests just being out of control I stopped having fun so I stopped playing the game, I tried mercenaries for hot min but just not in the mood for it. I’m out. I use to play all blizzard games, wow, HotS, overwatch, Diablo - now nothing

Although, I do wonder if the backlash would be this persistent if the only major franchises Acti Blizz has were treated with apathy by the public (CoD, Overwatch) or the company(Crash, Spyro). No, wait, Ubisoft are abusive arseholes as well, but that got buried almost instantly

Just found out it's not even my internet making me lag it's Vanguard itself lol, idk how that stuff works but I'm running 60 ping (my normal ping) in Overwatch and Sige, but as soon as I get on Vanguard I get 100+, I seriously have no idea how that works but it pisses me off

@nonsenseOW @Reiner_OW Mercy is overturned, sure. Slightly. Damage amplification is insanely overtuned in Overwatch. But mercy is currently being exploited in ranked... because it's ranked. Letting 1 braindead player freely buff a smurf/carry is going to feel frustrating. Overtuned? Yes. But broken? No

@LocalMedicalGF Brats? Overwatch was filled with them until one after another he got his bil ol' hands on them. Her? Some curvy citizen medic? She'll be broken into a sow in little to no time.

!REMINDER! Don't support Activision Blizzard or Riot games! Their work environments are disgusting and each have their slew of problems! Don't support Project L, or the LoL TV show, Overwatch 2, Call of Duty, anything from them.

@CrispyFrise I mean, taking 2 of the 3 developers of Crash & Spyro and putting them with Treyarch and Blizzard respectively to focus on COD & Overwatch sends a mixed message. Ubisoft saw Rayman as a flagship even after Rayman Origins & Legends, and now you have to beg Ubisoft to mention him.

@OrcusVaruna Overwatch had the exact same matchmaking issue. In fraction, pretty much every shooter I’ve played approaches matchmaking this way and I don’t get why. It’s the worst player-side experience for everyone involved.

@pelican_food @TheNCSmaster they cancelled the overwatch presentation till 2021 they were like "hey look 3 crash games for 79.99!" And remember Activision will use other ips to distract you from the scandals (works as people claim crash has nothing to do with blizzard despite both being owned by Activision)

@spookyhours40 I don’t think Overwatch is making them money a lot of money. Its due to the content drought and the problems at Activision Blizzard.

@ZvG_YT Problem is inherently the win to lose rp ratio, really not different from any competitive games like overwatch or lol or fighterz. The problem is the game has 50/50, rng mechanics that need to be addressed

@AboutNintendo Just burn down the company, the biggest loss will be crash I doubt many people will care that the declining COD games and overwatch 2 would be no more

in spite of blizzard and overwatch's problems I am sad to see a lack of chamber + widowmaker crossover memes making fun of the french

Overwatch pro scene right now makes me so sad. OWL sounds great next year, but it being played on OW2 is causing so many issues, surely at this point just having another season on OW1 would just fix so much. Most top players in T2 are leaving bc they dont know what they can do :(

@MrSulla_ I’m really only playing RuneScape and overwatch anyways with stock **** on the side so I didn’t really think hard drive is an issue

@AxH2198 @alantmh @PlayOverwatch Like one of the reasons why it took them so long to add Cross-Play to Overwatch is mainly due to Sony which other games had this similar issue which is completely out of their control so if you want to blame someone for this I suggest you point it at Sony and not the developers.

Brigitte was not only the most broken character in Overwatch history on release, I’d say she was pretty close to being one of the most broken characters in gaming history.

@MidaliaGold @MidasGoldenNuts @fortnitefacts62 He’s innocent! Jessica confirmed! I wish I was Sombra from Overwatch to find the ACTUAL OWNER and be civil to talk with him/her. If he/she has a problem with Jessica, I can clear a lot of things.
