  • OneJoeTweets OneJoePiece (@OneJoeTweets) reported

    Guys Dva is such a broken character that they needed to place 34 rules for her in competitive overwatch to prevent any sort of cheating Don't believe me? Look up men kissing on google

  • maiden_kei 𝕄𝕒𝕚𝕕𝕖𝕟 ℍ𝕖𝕒𝕧𝕖𝕟 (@maiden_kei) reported

    Overwatch would be fun if Blizzard acknowledged how broken Echo, Widow and Orisa are

  • crescentglass_ crescent ☾ (@crescentglass_) reported

    i think i have a problem because i really want to play overwatch right this second

  • RonaAltana Rona Altana (@RonaAltana) reported

    Arguably the biggest issue with Overwatch characters remains that they're Overwatch characters Pretty much all of them deserve better

  • 4_cringey Boba da Fett (@4_cringey) reported

    @Overwatch2Rev @FernandoFerna20 @WarnTV Overwatch was a finished game when released back in 2016 now it’s not, it’s no excuse when the game crashing and lagging. The damn OW store is completely fine with no bugs.

  • EclipseZCG Eclipse/Cuinn | ENVTuber ✨| Demon 😈 (@EclipseZCG) reported

    Now I'm just going to say this (Knock on wood) my PC stuttering issue has kinda dimmed down and almost entirely stopped. I just hopped on OW and its almost silky smooth I used to have stutters every 5 seconds now randomly its fine? Very confusing well I guess overwatch-

  • Hulkeen_ Hulkeen (@Hulkeen_) reported

    @Dasdaq9885 @stuballgames @Trey24k Alright, overwatch works better than the current. but if you actually want to fix the cheater issue you would push for a system that forces you to identify that YOU are the owner. once you get banned you cant buy another copy. add said system retroactively aswell 1/2

  • Sp00pyBeans Spoop (@Sp00pyBeans) reported

    ‘I’m in my **** era’ I whisper to myself as I login to Overwatch to spend the day grinding to get to plat before the season ends

  • txchlol Txch (@txchlol) reported

    Why do the enemy teams always have the ******* mercy's and our teams get the ******* dps moiras. **** overwatch. **** blizzard. Even the devs said "just win" like their SBMM isn't broken, those ******* are in denial.

  • bensjammin9 Ben (@bensjammin9) reported

    @awkwardOW It’s really cringe for high level players to get off on bullying newbies and casuals. Smurfs are a cancer to Overwatch and competitive games in general and break the already broken system more than it already was.

  • 7cursedcrows crowbar (@7cursedcrows) reported

    overwatch should detect when latency issues cause people to visually slide into the floor and through walls- and have it make the gmod collision sound. would have made it a tiny bit less painful to endure.

  • TheRealSquinty Squinty (@TheRealSquinty) reported

    Calling all Overwatch 2 players: Suzu Isn't broken Suzu Isn't broken

  • lostinsadness30 lostinsadness30 (@lostinsadness30) reported

    @Ninjayla This doesn't surprise me. I've experienced this in all kinds of games that have coms. SOT, Overwatch ect. It's the reason why I don't talk on comms hardly. Game should not be like this at all and it's been a problem for so long not much to being done about it

  • angel_winx_ 𝑵𝒐𝒗𝒂 ($0/$100) (@angel_winx_) reported

    I mixed my drink sat down to play overwatch and my stomach started hurting, Hot girls have stomach problems :(

  • probablyprozac god (@probablyprozac) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent my internet may be trash but I never had these problems with Overwatch ONE, fix your dog water game

  • MechaDragon101 MechaDragon101 (@MechaDragon101) reported

    All this talk about how live service games failing is making me worry for Master Duel and Overwatch 2, games I try to play daily

  • DralisUxiel Dralis Ux'iel (sick) (@DralisUxiel) reported

    Lately everything has been lagging, glitching and just straight up kicking me out of games. Especially with Overwatch 2.

  • chexmixdix christian (@chexmixdix) reported

    @dd_daniel727 -overwatch all you do is push objective, die, push, die, etc i just like how siege has more options on going about certain things. and i understand that u can switch heros to get around certain problems but thats just not enough imo

  • GnetworkUl GNETWORK UL (@GnetworkUl) reported

    @QIrregularity @TheComfyGamer @TWTHEREDDRAGON You do realise the IPs Acti/Blizz own right? Diablo, CoD, WoW, Hearthstone, Crash Bandicoot, Overwatch, Spyro, StarCraft... God I hate fanboys, such limited perspectives and low IQ.

  • Izzy_Phantom 🐝HiveMind🧠 (@Izzy_Phantom) reported

    @PixiesDirt Playing overwatch micless is a good call, if you're anything like me that could get you in trouble 😭😭😭 /hj /lh (I don't say slurs or anything that could get me cancelled, I just get really toxic for no reason 💀💀💀)

  • ExpitheCat 🐱Expi Feliton🌹🏳️‍⚧️ (@ExpitheCat) reported

    @capnomonkeys also 'it's funny to diss overwatch 2' kinda subjective ngl. if it was about actual problems with the game then maybe but half of the time it just feels like TF2 fans saying 'lul tf2 is better' for the sake of it.

  • tastebofa hatter 🇺🇦 (@tastebofa) reported

    @TorontoDefiant Overwatch 1, easily. People are only saying OW2 because it's the current problem and they forgot what it was like before.
