@Ray_or_Pablo I had the same problem with Overwatch. I could barely tell the difference between comp and quick play anymore lmao

@Nokotaaa Ok, happened to me multiple times. Sometimes Overwatch audio and other audio goes to other sound devices. Potentially your monitor or a program. I thibk an easier fix is to open sound control panel and disable all devices you dont care having sound cone out of

Overwatch's PVE story modes become so glitchy and broken if you speed run it on normal with 3 DPS and a bap. We had 2 moments with 20 sec gaps of no enemies cuz the scripts couldnt catch up lol

@DonToons Yeah well, GameStop was one of the nicer stores that had TF2 pop figures. There was this one shop I used to go to at every convention and they had allot of TF2 crap. When they said we have Overwatch, I was heart broken.

@JackFS10 I've fixed the issue myself by simply not watching overwatch league

@aussiespartan I’m all for OHK but it should require risk and precision. The problem with GLs is you can get that same result by just spamming hall ways like a junk rat playing Overwatch. If they got you down to a quarter shield it wouldn’t be so bad but one hit is overkill

@BlizzardCS I did three stars on overwatch and it wasn’t doubled. And now the challenge has ended and I missed the skin by 2 stars. If you would have doubled my stars I would have gotten it. I’m done. Issues like this are trash.

@PlayStation Recently I got a ps5, but I'm having an issue getting a game I purchased on ps4. I bought Overwatch:Origins edition when it came out years ago through the playstation store and its telling me I can't re-download it for ps5 that I have to rebuy the new version of it.

@Jaypher_ Have you tried apex on steam? There were a few people on Reddit who claimed Origin was actually the issue. I also heard overwatch is good for 8khz

I think another problem with games like #Overwatch is that nobody is really just playing for fun anymore. #FPS games are all competitive all day, 24/7.

@Tim_Cuber37 @Iriddium @ethoz only issue i got is with people holding angles and listening to sounds cues. wish the game had a workshop type mode so ppl could edit game modes (like in overwatch) and someone make a DM mode with no sound cues and you can only stand still for like 3 seconds before being punished

@OllieCarefree @OfficialVizeh No. They need to improve gameplay first that's the biggest issue. Champs is meant to be the comp mode. You don't see league play be only snipers, or overwatch comp only be 1 specific thing cos then it takes away the idea of it being the comp mode

ik i said this before but i'll say it again, the overwatch community is 10x worse than the smash community because while the smash community has **** problems they at least deal with them. The overwatch community literally tried defending Sinatraa, Mouffin, Redshell and others

I do enjoy playing the #Overwatch Archives event because it is nostalgic at this point, but that's also a big part of the problem. It REALLY shouldn't be nostalgic. #videogames

@Melody_SC2 Overwatch sucks. You need 2+ consistent friends to improve. Took me several seasons to solo climb as genji from silver to plat. Support is harder because low carry potential, a healed idiot is still a healed idiot. Except moira and baguette, ****** broken designs. **** baguette

@ElitheSensei @JenelleVictoria In order to pursue competition in the sport/game you have to enjoy it first. Every Pro started out somewhere but males weren’t met with the same issues that females do. We saw this with thar female pro in overwatch who quit because of nonstop harassment.

@MDtheAgent1 @TheeMadSpartan Why though, other than lootboxes (I’d thank Overwatch for that) I haven’t heard about any problems other than some of the games being ****.

@AskPlayStation Got a ps5, but I have an issue. I bought Overwatch:Origins on the ps4 through the ps store years ago. I wanted to re-download it and play it on ps5, but I can't. Its telling me to buy the new version. Any help is appreciated.

If someone disappears mid Overwatch match and your first reaction is to whinge and say they purposely left, get out of my match. Internet issues happen, black-outs happen, PCs/consoles can have problems, the game can crash Don't talk **** when you don't know circumstances

@SleepDrunkLive Like yeah loot boxes has been a problem in "big" games for a while but they've mostly been limited to cosmetics (i.e. overwatch skins, you could still play those characters without) but for the characters in big games to be locked behind gacha... Not good prospects

How about fixing the glitch that had my character constantly lurching to rhe right for 90% of a comp round insuring we lost and probably my whole team reporting me for "throwing". Thanks #blizzard #Overwatch

@SlepyBoii @LegacyKillaHD it brings in cash through loot cases and stuff, seriously valve should resolve those issues cause tf2 could be as big as overwatch but they would rather work on vr and tech that most cant use smh.
