  • 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.

  • _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 😭😭😭

  • 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

  • skywithdoubley sky (@skywithdoubley) reported

    my overwatch was on ultra graphics settings no wonder my comp was lagging with too many apps on 😭😭

  • JeepersDinero Dat Dawg (@JeepersDinero) reported

    @OGgamer50117770 @BB28LouisH @DestinLegarie I think Xbox fans get confused on what the problem is. I’m reality, if COD, Overwatch, and the other big Activision IP wasn’t apart of activision then there would be no problem But Xbox is going after 3rd party games with huge fanbases on all consoles, just stick to studios frfr

  • 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

  • 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

  • SoChanelicious Chanel 샤넬🌷 (@SoChanelicious) reported

    Anyone else having issues with Exitlag in Overwatch 2? Sometimes it won't connect me properly to the game server or if I'm playing with someone it would kick them out of the game😔

  • almost_poe Poe, (@almost_poe) reported

  • BigBossX Cordell Creese🌊 (@BigBossX) 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.

  • 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.

  • 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~

  • 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.

  • SlushiiSly Sierra (@SlushiiSly) reported

    @HoshizoraOW Remove overwatch 2. Broken as hell.

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

  • 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

    Did anyone else have issues with account merging/migration on Overwatch 2? It keeps booting me back to the top of the queue.
