  @Blizzard_Ent please fix your game? I've been suspended enough times because of your servers. It's ruining my experience of overwatch 2

  My English is so broken, because I'd absorved non stop words and accents of every english speaking country... I blame nijisanji and the aussie overwatch content creators.

  @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.

  a lot of fans of certain heroes have it a lot better than they'd make it out to be and I think it has something to do with how the overwatch fandom as a whole has a victim complex issue.

  @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

  @CounterStrike 1 of 10 players cheats in your game that means 1 cheater per game. GAME IS UNPLAYABLE. How to fix: 1. Bring back overwatch 2. Hire 30 people on minimum wage to be admins in games and overwatch people. 3. New anti cheat very intrusive we want just clean gameplay. 4. HWID Bans

  @Bloomzor @DumbsYT @Necrit94 I tried to argument it further on another answer. The problem is that I don't know why does he say that so I can't really fight it with arguments, from my perspective league is not on a bad spot and has been on way worse ones. Like overwatch or Fortnite release

  @SkywardPlate @ThelVanDamne @HerosDr34m Req packs which affected one gamemode only in the halo community yall blame the devs for people this **** in but cod was doing it and Overwatch and none of the fans from those games blame the game for it. It was literally industry standard and regardless halo 5 was live service.

  @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

  @ukrisreng1582 @mmmmmmmmiller Broken can't spend four or five dollars. On a couple of things. He would rather spend $25 on a skin in OverWatch. Then get three skins for for like four or five bucks. You can't make this **** up

  @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.

  Sorin (@Sorin_FF) reported 37 minutes ago

  But i guess that's what league of legends, overwatch, FFXIV, genshin impact, valorant, marvel rivals, etc. is for. I think live service and indie games just fill in the holes now. But people are tired of live service.

  @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.

  @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

  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.

  Game is not optimized to this day and they barely work on fixing the balance issues. The only players were ex overwatch players who were playing it because they were mad with overwatch but now they're realizing that it's a **** game and it was never going to actually rival OW

• 
  Dave (@ThatOddGuyDave) reported 46 minutes ago

  @enchandted Apparently they "lost" the files and data to this while converting to Overwatch 2, and the only way they can "fix" it is by completely remaking it. Don't know why, but I'm not buying that excuse of theirs.

  @OWAnonymous_ If you think the leaver issue in Overwatch is bad, go play Halo Infinite sometime. It's ten times worse over there.

  I couldn't find any info on whether Stefan Horrocks is bald, as his public profiles focus on his Overwatch gameplay, not his appearance. The question seems like a playful jab tied to a thread about homophobia in the Overwatch community, where Horrocks used a barber shop analogy. There's no evidence to confirm his baldness, so it's likely just banter. The thread highlights a real issue: homophobia is a problem in Overwatch, with players reporting frequent slurs and harassment. Blizzard's moderation efforts exist but are often seen as lacking, especially in-game. Better community standards could help.

  @KUMA_BEARR @FroggerOW you never played the PVE Blizzard made that **** was garbage. Stadium is great but naturally has issues that will be fixed over time. people like you are the reason Overwatch still has a somewhat negative outside perception and ruin the fandom

  @BlizzardCS one game of overwatch competitive I'd like to not play a team of all people on new accounts who are smurfing. Literally is a problem yet you guys don't address it. Ruins my experience playing and never can progress even at low ranks of competitive
