@EvaLangwin Honestly I think a lot left but definitely some amount stayed but very small. The problem with the beta is it showed nothing that new to the general public. So they left and for the hardcore overwatch players it was just a small part of what we were promised.

@Zemiki The PvE is still coming? I don't know what you take issue with. The OW2 Upgrades for PvP will be free for people who own Overwatch. Buying Overwatch 2 the game is exclusivele for PvE or those that never owned the original Overwatch.

I feel like I'm the only one in my entire friend group who actually likes Overwatch 2 Yeah, I've got plenty of issues with it, but it's a huge upgrade from OW1 (which I loved for 4+ years)

@Iamclyde_s I remember original Diablo 3 having some glaring issues, from the top of my head the action house and the constant conection. Also Overwatch was a huge letdown for me as time went on as well

@Lucid_TW I hope they don’t continue the old Overwatch development of removing these small and unintended things that raise the skill ceiling in a fun way without being broken Halo 2 button combos.

@artemiis19 The fact that this is a multi million dollar company that has taken the attention away from overwatch 1 for years and there is game braking bugs with ball players, there isn't a new practice range and problems with the first practice range have not been fixed, there's a ...

There's a lot to gain from a concerted effort to get the nomenclature right in Overwatch. Many issues we face are framing problems, not problems of substance.

@DENDE_MUSCLE the difference is only noticeable if you played overwatch in the first seasons, when the game wasn't bloated with random shields and heros that are broken af coming from season 3 overwatch to the beta of OW2, i enjoy ******** out of it while not being able to stand normal OW atm

Everyone saying Overwatch "2" so far fixes a lot of the pvp balance issues it's had before are forgetting a key detail You don't and shouldn't have to pay 40 USD for some core gameplay balance changes in an otherwise identical game

@anko_bun Like when they announced a beta for overwatch 2 beta they stated they knew it was dumb to not update for so long and that the pve problems shouldn't hold up the pvp updates.

@_Zedword @WarnTV I do play a game that is fun, it’s called Overwatch. But this right here is some gaggle **** of an experiment that they’re trying to push as a sequel. So many characters are made broken or unfit for this new format making it nonsensical. You’re the chimp if you can’t see it

I hate my friend she is so bad at hiding the fact she just hits me up to use my uk bank acc to pay her rent. She’s mentally ill in a way that’s exhausting and pretend fine and gets no help and romanticises her problems away and has such moral overwatch and I just. Don’t care 4 it

@TheActMan_YT I saw someone else say it but there's been an increasingly common issue of games getting balaned based on the top %1 of players, the competitive scene and it ******* ruined some games. Overwatch get balanced changed into dogshit imo.

(@cimebarrilete) reported
@yungwhal @spectratio Sorry for taking so long to get back to this but I think Overwatch just represents the zenith of what AAA devs thought (incorrectly) was the future of videogames, games as a service. They forgot that people want to play games for over a decade only if the game is fun at its core

tomfoolery and shenanigans
(@AMXshawnathan) reported
@SweatbandTv I say lifeline. because for one she's outclassed by other legends who basically swiped her old passive, other legends can basically do what she does better, and lastly, she has the same issue that launch Mercy from Overwatch had, just negating all effort done by the opposing team

@BlizzardCS I seem to have bad rubber banding issues while playing Overwatch, I am not alone in this. I have seen others leave game due to it so I know its not on our end. Please fix! :D

@lawlznet @VTuberTweeter I think the problem with Mobas and Overwatch is that players mostly make it trash xD I will agree on BR games tho... I just don't see the point of winning because of RNG with item spawns. Yes, skill is a factor but so much is just RNG based on which items you find :/

@that_sergal Didn't see the point in making an overwatch 2. Youd think a live service game would just keep updating

I see a lot of people say Overwatch is broken... I don't see how. I'm pretty sure it's one of the most balanced games out atm.

I'm hearing broken records after this first week of the Overwatch 2 Beta like: "It's the same game.." "Overwatch 1.5.." etc From my QA knowledge.. a beta test isn't a representation of the final product. Heavy on the "TEST..

People on the Overwatch subreddit are jaded af. Its a bunch of support mains who blame all their problems on the DPS. Its easy to see why the community is so toxic due to how much infighting/spite between players.

Overwatch 2 will get a significant ranked update. The queuetime issue will be resolved by making playing support more attractive.

@JohnDoe20417025 @Harc_The_Shark Worse is that is not that big a fix to tweak the matchmaker (in theory should not be if it's using basic logic) to make the games more laxed. But the have it in their minds halo is overwatch or valorant and that all games should be sweatfests

i dont know why someone at blizzard looked at the state of overwatch and decided the lack of a second soldier 76 was the problem

@Apply This issue is that they are releasing overwatch 2 as a new game so obviously it's supposed to feel like a new game, if Blizzard had said they are updating the current overwatch then I dont think there would be this much backlash, anyways that's my personal opinion
