  @ryanscottborman @heatloss1986 @AlexLuck9 Problem with the drone AWACS is that lack of crew, and why we need to risk losing lives. I remember when Global Hawk Block 40 showed up in Afghan. They told everyone they could provide NRT overwatch to convoys/SOF. We at JSTARS were pissed because that was a lie.

  @CalamariSteven @JoshLavis @Splitgate Overwatch cosmetics carried over to Overwatch 2. It's not unreasonable to think a free to play live service game's entire means of keeping players financially invested in the game should have some carryover when the developer migrates over to a new free to play live service...

  Bello! Me analyze Overwatch clip, very critical, like minion! Clip show payload game, lotsa beams, explosions, maybe cheating by Whisperz, bello! Giardia_ow mad, call for ref, suggest foul play. Cheating big problem in Overwatch, FACEIT got strict rules, ban aimbots, wallhacks fast. But maybe not cheating, could be hero skill or game bug, like lag, look suspicious, bello! Need FACEIT check clip proper, ensure fair play. False blame hurt too, make game toxic. Truth matter most, investigate fully, bello!

  @The_JBS I have no problem with the targeted strikes on regime leaders, nuclear scientists, and nuclear infrastructure. Providing intelligence and overwatch with planes and ships.

  @InsoNoSleep widow was never a problem in overwatch for like 90% of the playerbase lmao

  when flats said this game is about mental it really is, this guy had bad mental every game i played with him. like i understand you wanna win but yelling at your team isn’t gonna fix the problem and i feel like if everyone in overwatch had that mentality it would be a better game

  you guys fight tooth and nail about this girl but the reality is there and we see the undertones don’t act tone deaf to avoid the conversation that’s there, is it like other games? no, but does overwatch have a problem with the way they do **** like this, YES.

  @Bluah97 Sensor is decent, I think it’s either 3370 or 3395, and it performs amazing in game, no issues when playing any game, and doesn’t feel any different than any other mouse using a 480hz monitor in Overwatch

  @bnpar26 @GagasLeftT0e It is a problem. DVA has been broken since the start of overwatch. She still is, she is after Freja the most banned tank in higher ranks

  @cresaint My problem is everyone acting like every company does this which they don’t I.E. Overwatch the p*rn is literally the models from overwatch like infold is probably just a well not rare byt uncommon company also they were selling it too

  @yseasoned @Greenpig117 Because overwatch simply missed its chance to be a good game again i'm afraid. Their lack of trying to improve until they had competition is the embodiment of everything wrong with live service games.

  @cwebbonline I am all for going into gang areas in company strength. Complete with multiple men on overwatch, armored vehicles, drones, cut the electricity and cell service in the area etc. Hire vets. Let some clandestine element of the military plan it.

  doppelgänger (@marckkhalide) reported 33 minutes ago

  @CounterStrike While CS2 is popular and generates major revenue, players have concerns: missing CS:GO game modes, cheater issues. Overwatch added 6 months ago but remains unclear. Ranked required major fixes after months. Slow development progress and a lack of transparency from developers.

  @yesPotatoe_ did your overwatch crash too

  divinity (@owdivinity) reported 36 minutes ago

  I am currently looking for work as an 3DITOR. I can work in both short and long form. I have a solid understanding of Overwatch, Marvel Rivals, League of Legends, and Valorant, and am open to non-game-specific work. DM For Resume/Reel Discord: divinityy. Due to some clerical errors, my university job likely won't be able to get me on payroll until the start of the next semester, and I have bills to pay.

  @cealestica Same, but that's not a Reinhardt thing, that's a Overwatch players problem I just bait them out and hopefully killing three per fight (or at least try) will do the trick

  @ceroeit Thank you! I lowkey think it's just in one of the art books so I'm just going to have to sit down with mine Weird issue with googling Overwatch Era Overwatch images is that. That's the. Name of the franchise. So it doesn't work

  I need a Reinhardt or any other big buff tank main to play with me in overwatch it would solve my daddy issues

• 
  HaloiOi (@Juicebox343GS) reported 47 minutes ago

  @HubPointless Also if there were ever a topic not spoken about enough, it's this exact issue here. Counter Strike, Overwatch, Valorant, Doom is basically Halo 3 customs with player speed at 150%! Sprint is a gimmick that's fun, but it was never Halo's core experience. Halo 3 was that in spades

  @KingKaiCUCOO @RivalsLeaks personally it feels bad to play compared to Overwatch (let’s say it’s a direct competitor), maybe cause it’s 3rd person or cause of the performance issues but it does not play anywhere near as smooth as Overwatch does

  @dottanic I hate that skins seem like the only actual piece of content we can look forward to.. like the whole trailer was 30 seconds of stadium **** and the rest was showcasing skins.. I don't buy skins but I think overwatch created this problem themselves and likes when people are upset

  Aaron (@aaronreading) reported 53 minutes ago

  For the first time since launch, Overwatch has pissed me off so bad that I've uninstalled the game. @PlayOverwatch please for the love of god fix your matchmaking. This is abysmal. I love this game. I want to play it. I'm having ZERO fun with how it's set up currently.

  @j_step21 Hot take, but Concord wasn't 'terrible' as a game. The issue was, it was just Overwatch but slower. The lore was pretty decent, and it seems someone put effort into that. It's just a shame the character designs were so piss poor and it brought nothing new to the table

  daws (@TTVdaws__) reported 57 minutes ago

  @MrQuattro39 You might have to revert to the previous version of the drivers. I updated to their newest one, and OverWatch kept on giving me this error over and over and over. I rolled back my update, and the issue hasn't happened since

  @bewitcheddarlin Honestly, I reached diamond 3 without really a lot of issues, but people ego is inflated as hell, it's Overwatch all over again 😭
