Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MogMoira Dr Moira O'Deorain - Minister of Genetics, Oasis (@MogMoira) reported

    @fcrkorea Captain Amari was possibly the best leader Overwatch never had. If she were in charge the problems that doomed Overwatch never would have happened . She knows the line to walk between pragmatism and idealism.

  • FuzzyQuills Jean-Luc Mackail (FuzzyQuils) (@FuzzyQuills) reported

    @PlayApex Nobody talking about how crash-prone the new Switch build is? Seems if I've played any other games, it crashes like crazy until I reset my Switch. Seems panic button ports in general need this though, Overwatch has similar problems

  • CalebGamerOW Protomari (@CalebGamerOW) reported

    @artezishka_like @ubeRRibs @PlayOverwatch I'm pretty sure this is more of a PlayStation issue than anything else really but I'm pretty sure they still are going to support Overwatch for the PS5. Also the reason the Xbox One X is able to do it is because it's more powerful than the PS4 Pro.

  • edgelord69_xx daküneko (@edgelord69_xx) reported

    @LobaTheBaddest @TitanfallBlog Let's get deep, and logical here. Clearly your a dumb *****, learn to shut up, but let's scratch that, games are full of bugs, example. Minecraft, call of duty, overwatch. Every game has bugs wether the devs like it or not. Some times it's impossible to fix and sometimes not

  • signal_the_wolf Signal the Wolf (@signal_the_wolf) reported

    I looked up to him both in Overwatch and in Valorant but I have no problem calling this dude a piece of ****. (4/3)

  • ImJustjun Jun Reyes (🎥editing comms open) (@ImJustjun) reported

    2 - 3 - 1 tn. I didn’t play anywhere near my best but nowhere near my worst. Sucks half the games were screwed by throwers or other issues but that’s just Overwatch.

  • PrincessMeezee MEEZEE (@PrincessMeezee) reported

    I am having a lot of trouble trying to figure out what I want to stream atm. Honestly I would just love to play Overwatch the whole time bc it feels like I’m putting in the work and improving... but I also know it’s not very entertaining for everyone...

  • HokageHina KzN 🌸 Hinabun 🐰 (@HokageHina) reported

    @emeraldfoxfire Its a serious issue that people are unfortunately taking lightly. And he is a pro Overwatch/Val player and steamer

  • Chinny_XP ChinnyXP (@Chinny_XP) reported

    @rykitsu I've been an overwatch league fan for awhile so I follow a lot of these people. What really annoyed me was seeing the ones just saying, "I think it's time to disconnect from social media". No this is the time to use your platform and speak up.

  • xtreemmasheen3k 🐍Extreme Machine 3002🐍 (@xtreemmasheen3k) reported

    @UE_UpperEchelon There are still instances of hacking on Consoles, though I don't know a whole lot of specifics. In the Overwatch scene, for example, there were (are still?) ways to figure out the IP of the console owner (I think it was on Xbox) and DDOS them into dropping out of the match

  • BigBangSlash Sarah Appreciator (@BigBangSlash) reported

    @centiferno There are several other games on the eshop with microtransactions but sure it's Fortnite that's the issue Couldn't even say ******* Overwatch?

  • MogMoira Dr Moira O'Deorain - Minister of Genetics, Oasis (@MogMoira) reported

    @fcrkorea Rome didn't fall because of a single bad decision or one incompetent leader. Similarly Overwatch's fall was not a single issue or disagreement. It was a vast international paramilitary force, its end could only come from systemic problems.+

  • NDP40_ NDP40 (@NDP40_) reported

    @konofnbr idk if this is the right place to be asking this but... does someone know how to fix error code 0x003 geforce i tried EVERYTHING that ppl say that worked in need help can someone pls help i cant post anymore yt vids now cus i dont wanna use overwatch

  • FulmerCSGO i am a simp for the ahrora (@FulmerCSGO) reported

    the overwatch fan girl that let sinatraa nut in her let all that happen to her, she coulda left at the first red flag and didn’t because she was “blinded”. sounds a whole lot like “i can fix him” type energy, dumb *****.

  • iOne_bear iOne (@iOne_bear) reported

    @BMox81 @andymorphs Before using a power line and then a mesh I used to have issues playing Overwatch and pretty much any multiplayer game. So, clearly if your average Joe wants to game, no matter the platform he will look up to make his experience as best as possible. If Joe wants TikTok he good.

  • 432hearts 📿 (@432hearts) reported

    Officially they go separate ways and unofficially they continue being the head of international crime and attack people who are not in their favor. Had trouble again today. I am in Germany and they have no right to go for my data, to overwatch me or to interfere.

  • BotWithOpinions Video Game Opinion Bot (@BotWithOpinions) reported

    Batman: Arkham City is only overhyped because it has rocket launchers and a greatly designed Overwatch Standard Issue Pulse Rifle

  • Grillinessou FriedGames (Ray) (@Grillinessou) reported

    @BlizzardCS Something is up with some of the Overwatch servers tonight. Apparently in the mayhem mode, server continues to close due to error and switched maps in the middle of the game.

  • johnmcrston Emrys 🖋 (@johnmcrston) reported

    i used to think overwatch had it bad with hackers and then i saw a vid of a hacked dbd game where the world was literally broken so maybe it's not so bad here

  • KodazZfnbr CrG KodazZ (@KodazZfnbr) reported

    Black ops = Tu crash pas ✅ Rocket League = Tu crash pas ✅ GTA= Tu crash pas ✅ Sea of thieves = Tu crash pas ✅ Overwatch = Tu crash pas ✅ Fortnite = Crash , freeze , packet lost , rollback , bug , meta de merde 🙃🙃🙃

  • NateNdsSmHelp nate's a **** (they/he/xe) (@NateNdsSmHelp) reported

    Is anyone else having issues of overwatch logging them out whenever they close the game? It keeps making me log back in and it's never done that before

  • FranckyFox2468 François Godbout (@FranckyFox2468) reported

    @frozenfroh Oh i definitly feel that on the fanart part. Especially if they share it. In the case of apex or overwatch the poor artist gets flooded by "fix the ******* game" messages and ****. Its awful.

  • 00Annnnne sunflower 🌻 (@00Annnnne) reported

    I cant tell if overwatch is glitching or if my controllers are broken

  • AbandonedOw Abandoned_ow (@AbandonedOw) reported

    Why is anyone surpised when people who have acted like massive peices of **** in game for years act the same irl? People who are saying they're surpised about so many issues with prominent overwatch players are beyond me.

  • LilKuji Kuji (@LilKuji) reported

    Videos will resume soon, streaming schedule still being set with a few things to fix here and there. Wild Rift is dead to me since matchmaking is broken so its probably Overwatch and League of Legends gameplay in general unless I use a vpn.

  • NCVABCRN    ― ᴀʟʟʏ ɴᴏᴠᴀ 💫│RP (@NCVABCRN) reported

    //: tbh I think I'd rename Ally's callsign for their overwatch verse to "Hypernova" since Nightheart sounds too similar to Reinhardt in my mind??? Too lazy to fix that though.

  • LastTourGuide [Captain] (@LastTourGuide) reported

    For the curious on the regrets: Mercy Overwatch (hate the game now) Koharu Yoshino (don't really like the show anymore) Yuuki Yuuna (first nendo, pieces broken) Elias Ainsworth (boring nendo, still love series)

  • RacineScammer Racine Scammer (@RacineScammer) reported

    Read about the interesction of the Seahawks received a crash on the link below. Overwatch:

  • brunettesimgirl andrea (@brunettesimgirl) reported

    @Vitalik_man @luumiasims @TheKixg Look up NRAAS error trap and NRAAS overwatch. these two are my staples. I physically cannot play the game w/out these two installed.
