@GPrime85 People will always find something to ***** about. I don't even touch overwatch but ik blizzard can be pretty hit and miss when it comes to quality, I also know the player bases are prone to having petty issues being blown out of proportion too. Case in point people will always 😭

I played Overwatch for 5 years and watched Blizz fumble the **** out of so many different kinds of issues. I am not surprised in the least with how this game launch is going, but the demanding to see people's phone bills is a new level

@Qwik You were able to mitigate DDOS attacks on OverWatch One so... what changed? Forget to route it through the DDOS provider before launch LOL

Got to Installing Overwatch 2 and login to see it auto decided which platform account to use without asking, doesn't seem like I can change it currently so RIP my entire Xbox Overwatch account I guess. I hope it gets fixed soon (╥﹏╥)

I don't support Blizzard, for the record, my issue here is with how impermanent things are when I say: It is *alarming* to me that ******* Overwatch's servers are just down now. That game is barely over 5 years old and it's already "done."

Played overwatch for a total of 5 minutes after waiting 3 hours worth of queues and error messages. Got kicked out… waiting in another queue. Why wouldn’t they just put me in priority? I got on the game anyways… you’re dangling a carrot in my face :(

@SamitoFPS I understand the server issue and it will resolve momentarily. The problem is that they require us to have postpaid phone number just to play the game. It was different in Overwatch 1, but now, it defeats the purpose that OW2 is F2P to have more players and have bypass this ****.

I never mentioned my biggest problem with Overwatch 1: very, very long wait times for games. I remember just 3 games in a 90 minute stretch. I almost prefer Splatoon's disconnects. At least I could still be in another match within 2 minutes.

@Xbox I'm just experiencing a problem with the game itself for now. Beforehand, Overwatch 1, had a free trial when it's developers let players play it for free for some time. Now, stayed saying like that "Free Trial", and when I enter the game now it says "free trial is not available".

@deemonch @Qwik Back in overwatch 1, there was no issue adding your phone number, whether be prepaid or postpaid. For OW2 however, only postpaid players can play the game. Not all of us have postpaid numbers, especially in poor countries. Its like OW2 is meant to be played by wealthy people.

@BlizzardCS Hey blizzard I bought the watchpoint pack and have just logged into overwatch 2, but it says I have to buy the pack again whilst on ps4. What's the issue here? Not to mention my progress back from OW didn't carry over! Will this be fixed in the near future?

Feel really bad for Overwatch 2's launch day, shame this small indie company didn't have the preparation and hindsight of potential DDoS attacks or have the resources for decent servers.

@aaronkellerOW @PlayOverwatch DDoS attack happened as soon as the release of the “update” overwatch 2. Crazy coincidence am I right?

Kinda glad I’m not able to play Overwatch 2 due to babysitting. I would not have the patience to get on the servers and sounds like there’s a lot of sound issues from what I’ve seen posted about it so far
