Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Mr_Gjordan Call me G (@Mr_Gjordan) reported

    On the plus side, At least Tony Hawk & Crash will be in Overwatch 2 so not a full loss I guess

  • Agui_doggie21 Agustin Negrete (@Agui_doggie21) reported

    @SpawnWaveMedia Well, let’s hope for a good remake of Crash Bandicoot, The Wrath of Cortex ft. Overwatch characters

  • AdamLunaaa Adam Luna (@AdamLunaaa) reported

    @StealthIsHere Overwatch made me have anger issues ... 🥲

  • gayatta1 gayatta (@gayatta1) reported

    The upcoming patch, which is live in experimental rn, contains zenyatta nerfs...? Hello @Blizzard_Ent, zen is not making the game unbalanced. There are already a lot of broken counters to him... #Overwatch

  • solusauctor Val (@solusauctor) reported

    @LogothX @HBJohnXuandou Tldr vicarious visions, the guys behind the THPS 1+2 and the Crash N Sane trilogy just got absorbed fully into Activision blizzard, where they are now "fully committed" to overwatch and WoW content **** sucks

  • Reitard26 Yorble (@Reitard26) reported

    @purrezii in general when Overwatch 2 releases i feel like it’s just gonna be like essentially the same game obv so the fans will have the same issues with the OW1. i just think the current state of everyone leaving or getting tired will continue until everyone is gone or blizzard does sum

  • xHightower_ Luke (@xHightower_) reported

    "You guys did such a good job on the Crash Trilogy and THPS remakes! Now go make some bullshit skins for Overwatch or something"

  • ChummyNose Aaron (@ChummyNose) reported

    Rocket League servers are a joke. I'll frequently have lag spikes during games, sometimes spiking to 999 ping and losing me games because it happens in the last 10 seconds. I then switch to Overwatch and have zero issues, completely stable. How is this acceptable?

  • gqrillzx joey (@gqrillzx) reported

    overwatch better be cross platform so i can move my **** to playstation cuz i aint payin 120 a month for a shitty online service

  • System9509 System509 (@System9509) reported

    @Birds106 They just bought Vicarious Visions (the folks who brought back crash bandicoot and did the thps 1+2 remake) and they're turning them into an overwatch 2 asset factory

  • BotWithOpinions Video Game Opinion Bot (@BotWithOpinions) reported

    Many Forza games are old but most of them would be interesting if they had a Overwatch Standard Issue Pulse Rifle, **** probe, and Badger Saw

  • purrezii 🌸 mikey ☆彡🌸 (@purrezii) reported

    @Reitard26 that too!! a lot of people seem to think that overwatch 2 will magically fix things. like no, they’re still going to be slow as hell for fixes, they’re still gonna be **** at balancing, they’re still going to give crumbs or content only now we need to pay for more lol

  • tysantowney Tysan Towney (@tysantowney) reported

    @ChillociRapto @johnnyjl96 @PlayStationAU Yup. 1st time I’ve had to delete games as I finish them. Not even on Xbox 360 did I have small Hard Drive issues. Red dead, Cyberpunk, MK11, Overwatch, FIFA and Witcher are all I have installed now. Will probably have to delete something for the Resident Evil demo tonight...

  • FourScore64 Shane (@FourScore64) reported

    The talent at Vicarious Visions is also the key reason why the resurrection of Crash Bandicoot even happened to begin with, so I'd seriously like to ask what ******** were they smoking when they decided to relegate all of the staff to work on Overwatch and Friends™ for eternity

  • jordizzle @jorbizzle - New Year; New Meat (@jordizzle) reported

    They successfully revived 2 dead franchises, one so well it got a new installment, and now they're gonna be forced to either: 1.) fix REFORGED 2.) make WOW expansions 3.) design Overwatch skins for this year's Halloween event.

  • TehParalyzer Dean Federico (@TehParalyzer) reported

    @pjparker16 @Jackoski3 @SpawnWaveMedia Tony Hawk sold really well for an Activision remaster. They also did the Crash Trilogy Remaster. While nobody was fired, a studio that was making good games is now working for Blizzard. We lost a great team who will now work on games like Overwatch, Diablo, and Warcraft instead.

  • TheRealGLmood1 GLmood1 😊🔪 (@TheRealGLmood1) reported

    @kayjii I play overwatch just for my stream only TBH. If I dont stream I wouldnt play the game at all. True it's bad, but I try to mix it up and actually have fun. I try to not get mad at all and fix my mentality. I usually play just to talk to people and **** around and have fun. 1/2

  • Hylianhero777 Kevin DiBiase (@Hylianhero777) reported

    @RahulsRules Yeah I wonder if this means that Blizzard is understaffed/facing dev trouble on stuff like Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4 as well. Regardless it's just a shame that Activision thought this was a good idea

  • meow_is_cool meow (@meow_is_cool) reported

    I've never played a game of overwatch in my life should I fix that if I get the chance?

  • seikil0s Nikthan @B//L//M! A//C//A//B! (@seikil0s) reported

    Like, there are definitely "MUST BAN" league champs which is a HUGE ******* problem IMO but somehow league can at least vaguely balance their 150+ champs. Overwatch can't even balance 20.

  • alli_koneko Princess Koneko (🆓️ FansPage!) (@alli_koneko) reported

    It's total ******* bullshit when Overwatch randomly disconnects despite NO ISSUES FOR 3 HOURS BEFOREHAND and I get booted from a comp game then the game REFUSES to let me back in and I lose SR because it locked me out after LEGIT ONLY TEN SECONDS. What the hell @Blizzard_Ent ???

  • SunhatZhenya tiger girl fat ***** (@SunhatZhenya) reported

    like damn these guys made people give a **** about crash bandicoot again AND made the first good tony hawk game in who knows how long? time to have them work on overwatch 2

  • raybattler Raybattler (@raybattler) reported

    @Sylverstone14 Crash in WoW/Overwatch Crash in WoW/Overwatch

  • Mr_Gjordan Call me G (@Mr_Gjordan) reported

    On the plus side, At least Tony Hawk & Crash will be in Overwatch 2 so not a full loss I guess Man shrugging

  • Ink_Shoobs Shoobs_ink (@Ink_Shoobs) reported

    @Nibellion Does this mean Overwatch will get a Crash skin?

  • Rustikle bob (@Rustikle) reported

    @BearKumaOso1 Yeah its quite sad isnt it, nowadays i just get my Overwatch fix by watching kiwi play a bit and thats already plenty for me :')

  • lucas_lmaoo Lucas 🇨🇴 (@lucas_lmaoo) reported

    the studio that brought you crash remakes and Tony hawk remakes will now be making overwatch skins for eternity

  • not8_bit eric. (@not8_bit) reported

    @9_volt_ @Nibellion Because they're 100% being folded into Blizzard as backup relief for Diablo 4 or Overwatch 2 or something, right? Blizzard didn't absorb them to let them make a new Blizzard IP. This is an emergency fix for something.

  • kayjii Kayjii (@kayjii) reported

    @paolo_pall Overwatch is in a state where counter-picking isn't a thing anymore and the power creep leads to constant mirror match-ups in high ranked games. Blizzard hasn't been clear on where it wants Overwatch to go and it's currently going nowhere and solving none of the problems.

  • ZiggyGamma ZiggyGamma (@ZiggyGamma) reported

    @Big_manT Because Activision turned Vicarious Visions (Crash Trilogy, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 +2) are now a support studio for blizzard meaning they're probably going to help work on Overwatch 2 and other Blizzard properties instead of their own titles.
