What is going on with quickplay matches in @OverwatchEU @Blizzard_Ent, me and friends are not even prestige 1 and being put against pre-made teams of prestige 5 and above? this is ridiculous in terms skill base. We even tried competitive and its the same broken issue! #Overwatch

There are many important mods to use to allow a more stable gameplay experience. NRaas ErrorTrap and Overwatch are must have. This mod traps and fix all in-game error and most of the time prevents crashing due to game logic error.

@ScarletteTrann Sis at this point she does deserve the hate she's getting. Overwatch days palang nya napaka messy na nya then she jumped to League then napakadaming issues naman nya so she jumped to Valo then ito nga lol some people will never change honestly

So had to reinstall windows cuz it was messing with my cpu. After friends power cut out. Was solid for a week but the 3rd overwatch game yesterday encountered blue screen of death.... lots of work to be done to get everything back to normal, I’m sure it’s a gpu driver error

@Immmense @impulsegrenades @NotOsprey Look bro to be fair overwatch had a team comp for a year and a bit where if you’re not running it you just lose basically and the players never said let’s ban the hero that caused problem

@vis1oncs @Mrtweeday @Faceit_Mikey No, and you know why? Because of money. Dead simple :) Valve could easily solve the issue that it had with hackers in CSGO by implementing hardware-based bans, something like Overwatch had, and voila, no cheaters. But then again, the income would've been cut by at least 50%.

@Ikraik_original @JamesD_AC @Memento_Gallery Usually MTX go to skins and visual elements (The Divisions, Overwatch, etc) which is “fine” since they will always look for a way to gather more money. The issue comes when they force players pay in order to win like mobile games. In the end it pushes players to leave the game.

@Slasher i dont play valorent but to the people who do is a new character cool or is it frustrating bc i use to play overwatch and nothing pissed me off more then tons of characters because it seems these companies release broken characters to drive initial sales for their accessories

@BlizzardCS both of my blizzard client games, Overwatch and BOCW, are having the same problem: they both have horrible lag and run at 5 FPS after one minute and it lasts for the rest of the time I have the game open. This has never happened to me before and...

@TitanfallBlog “Feels too much like overwatch” then stop playing a hero shooter, get on hyperscape or warzone if you have a problem with Apex legend’s abilities

and Rampart = Low pick AND bad. There’s no consistency so looking at pick rates for buffs/nerfs feels wrong. It’s all about what’s fun to play. Look at torbjorn in overwatch. Super boring to play, low pick rate in pubs, but absolutely BROKEN in competitive play in the right hands

I still think about Overwatch because maaaaaaan it could'a been, like, somethin' special. 6 Winstons on Hanamura is like a cherished gaming memory. They could, they COULD, fix it for Overwatch 2 but they ain't gonna.

@Blizzard_Ent @BlizzardCS Do us a favour. Don’t put out Overwatch 2, unless you address the matchmaking issue and quitting/penalty issue. I’m tired of losing games and dropping rank because people quit out mid game. That **** is garbage. 30min bans are not enough.

The funny thing is if they fix Overwatch the way I want them to they'd probably lose the only audience they have left.

@kirschade Excitement leads to many errors like Failure, Ignorance, Naiveness and Obfuscation. Just look at Jack's leadership of Overwatch.

@TitanfallBlog Let me also add how one of the devs said that they don't want the game to end up like overwatch or just a ability based game. Suck it up cause good **** will come especially if we all deal w the problems with respect when talking to any dev about said change

@uhhhhdylan_ @danielzklein Exactly. Only way to counter him is to be him or crypto. Thats the problem and is why people are starting to compare apex to overwatch

@TitanfallBlog its not becoming overwatch, theyre just catering to the **** players. i really dont care what anyone says, caustic is the most broken and overpowered legend ever made. and they keep buffing the ****** cause bad players can get very easy kills with his stupid kit

(@FenrirsDarkSeal) reported
@Chitoseofficial I mean league has a dumpster fire for a competitive community anyway. Can't speak of Starcraft though. I know Heroes of the Storm is insanely hostile, as is Overwatch and the like. It's honestly a culture issue, no one knows how to be respectful and not pigs.
