    I’m in a weird place with Apex right now. Ranked is usually solo these days and you can only do but so much + cheaters. Then pubs are cool but as soon as Broken Moon comes around I’m cool. Overwatch? Lol no. The FPS thing getting tired Lowkey

  • J0URNALIST Jim smith (@J0URNALIST) reported

    @Crow15851957 Most popular games have bad rating or gatcha game or bad cheating problem or same game with different number/remastered like fifa , cod , nba2k , overwatch 2 , Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege , Madden NFL , Pokémon: Scarlet/Violet , Gran Turismo 7 , MLB: The Show and too many

    Can you imagine a video game maker owning the ip's of: TES, FallOut, Doom ,halo, Call of duty, Wolfenstein, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, wasteland, world of Warcraft, Overwatch, Diablo,gears of war, forza, dishonored, Prey ? Damn i rly can't imagine 🌝

  • Chuuw33 Dio. Spumoni (@Chuuw33) reported

    They keep tryna compare XDefiant to COD and that's hella stupid kuz it's more like a Ubisoft Overwatch if anything at all. It's also feels cheap as **** and they can't fix any of the current bugs

  • MidnightEd3n Midnight (@MidnightEd3n) reported

    Orisa is genuinely unfun to play against. I have no problem with any other hero at this point. She just has too many abilities that counter everything #Overwatch #Overwatch2

  • softboypastles PastelboyMarshy (@softboypastles) reported

    Overwatch fix your ******* ranking system please, like ******* hell. I'm being put with bronze 5 and my rank isn't increasing because my team mates don't know their elbow from their toe

  • PrettieUglie Lia (@PrettieUglie) reported

    is blizzard ever going to explain their broken *** ranking system for overwatch??

  • _Maxx_Effect_ Max (@_Maxx_Effect_) reported

    @BlizzardCS It seems matches are broken in Overwatch 2. People are leaving randomly and no other roles are found along with not being able to see team names....

  • spencerzero_ Spencer (@spencerzero_) reported

    Overwatch (1) felt like a finished quality product that you paid a premium price for. Overwatch 2 is pretty much someone taking the bones of an abandoned product and turning it into live service crap.

  • the_shrimp_lord lord of all shrimp 🦅 (@the_shrimp_lord) reported

    @JejeNazariel @fefquest i don't mind esports as long as they don't heavily influence game balance like in overwatch during the league season it becomes clear that balance changes are driven by pro metas when they butcher characters because 0.1% of players can make them broken, its just bs

  • OperaGhost20 Hamlet💀 (@OperaGhost20) reported

    @BryteBytez I mean I streamed Overwatch and Val yesterday without any problems other than one internet disconnect so I think it might’ve been the sheer amount of people on the server and me trying to stream

  • 5l_8i Mohammed (@5l_8i) reported

    @PlayOverwatch hi overwatch I got a band for a whole season and I don't deserve it. First, I was expelled from the game for an unknown reason, not the Internet. I think it's a problem with the game servers, and the other four times are all because of the Internet

  • BiggLyndo Lyndo @ Kick.com (@BiggLyndo) reported

    XDefiant is a problem.. I’m having WAY TOO MUCH FUN.. it’s like Overwatch/og COD multiplayer

  • That_Killjoyy kill (@That_Killjoyy) reported

    nobody gives a damn but overwatch needs to fix its servers before i go batshit, i stay getting booted randomly for no reason :(

  • Anthony_Muscat_ Anthony Muscat (@Anthony_Muscat_) reported

    @OrionQc27 @OverwatchEU There’s only one tank in Overwatch 2. If it’s a Dva purposely getting demeched and hiding, that not only removes the one and only tank from the fight, but also feeds ult charge. If you’re losing to a feeding dva who then hides until her mech charge is up, then it’s a skill issue

  • gwabity gwabity🐼 (@gwabity) reported

    Why is it every time I stream Overwatch I lag😭 Is that a sign not to play🤔

  • benhsu Ben Hsu (@benhsu) reported

    After six months of hoping Overwatch can fix the rank and match making issues. I come to realize that Overwatch is just like Twitter. We put up with this crap until better things come along.

  • RRipphausen Rhiannon Ripphausen (@RRipphausen) reported

    @butterbeanbill @SrslyPaladin I KNOW! Today in qp someone told me to kill myself cuz I headshot them, Im so sick of it. Ban me for leaving one game from a glitch but let them keep ruining peoples days? Overwatch is so toxic and comp is even worse.

  • BrothaDark84 BrothaDarkness84 (@BrothaDark84) reported

    @DaCrazyKillaTay Having issues with randoms in Overwatch 2 .

  • LEILANI05777676 LEILANI_OROZCO (@LEILANI05777676) reported

    I was really looking forward to Season 2 of Overwatch, but now I'm having trouble even playing the game. It keeps crashing on me, and I've been banned for more than an hour since the game launched. I'm on PC with a very good PC, and I just don't know why this is happening.

  • TheMightyBaloon TheMightyBaloon (@TheMightyBaloon) reported

    @JacobWolf @bmkibler You don't really. On average changes will be explained by the onscreen talent on multiple occasions. I don't even know what half the stuff on overwatch is but I do enjoy watching OW comp and I don't play the game. The problem is rooted in the pipeline.

    @PPMABC2 wasting* you’re* Not sure about that buddy, you seem to be wasting your skills on playing Overwatch 2. That explains the poor grammar issues

  • Axyierl Axy (@Axyierl) reported

    @KingSpeedy25 @IGN I doubt there will be a story mode. This looks like it's going to be a f2p live service game like overwatch, Fortnite etc. Maybe they'll make difrent maps but that's about it

  • thefoxypaladin fox (@thefoxypaladin) reported
