  • Joiight Joe Ight (@Joiight) reported

    Has anyone else been having issues with Overwatch since the Archives Event came out? Like everyone at my school is having issues where we glide every once in a while and we will fall off the map and ****. Happens to some other schools we play against to so maybe Northeast issue?

  • Cmax_one C.Max (@Cmax_one) reported

    How about fixing the glitch that had my character constantly lurching to rhe right for 90% of a comp round insuring we lost and probably my whole team reporting me for "throwing". Thanks #blizzard #Overwatch

  • MaciaPaladin Michael C. Prokop (@MaciaPaladin) reported

    I think another problem with games like #Overwatch is that nobody is really just playing for fun anymore. #FPS games are all competitive all day, 24/7.

  • sunnachhi ♥ sunna ♥ (@sunnachhi) reported

    actually i got a lotta undermining issues when it comes to overwatch, the only one being gr**med when i was 17, i never solo’d since and going solo for the first time is a big step for me. i just like making jokes outta my own trauma smh lmao

  • captawesomeOW Gaming’s Most Positive Pillar (@captawesomeOW) reported

    To the person that was bullying me in my bronze Overwatch ranked game. Fix your mindset. Not only were you bullying me, you were bullying someone that has a disability. I’m not going to take this **** anymore. Grow the F up. Cause I’m not going anywhere.

  • Parsinvita1 Parsinvita (@Parsinvita1) reported

    Fix Overwatch.

  • imusahgi veronika (@imusahgi) reported

    @XboxSupport I can’t play any games. (apex legends or overwatch) keeps telling me i have a temporary network problem but my internet is okay. my friends are playing online with no issues.

  • IllSupremus THOMAS (@IllSupremus) reported

    think my cyberpunk game is broken. i didn’t think you could upgrade your overwatch, problem solver, and crash guns to orange/gold legendary but i have.

  • SnowTheFloof SnowTheFloof (@SnowTheFloof) reported

    Love being told I should kill myself on overwatch and that im the problem when im 15k damage in 6 minutes and we still lose....

  • softboyventi Venti ♬ (@softboyventi) reported

    @AskPlayStation Hi. I’ve encountered an issue with my Overwatch on PS4. I’ve contacted Blizzard directly who have said I need to take this up with Sony to restore. All of my Overwatch progress has been completely lost without me doing anything. Please DM me abt this.

  • georgeThien George Thien (@georgeThien) reported

    @BlizzardCS tried to login from Malaysia to America server to play Overwatch, been trying for hours, reinstalled battle net and the game itself, can't seems to login at all. Help pls? or is this the right twitter to reach out ><

  • DocObsidian DoctorObsidian (@DocObsidian) reported

    Hot take, but saying "It's just quick play" while playing Overwatch makes you part of the problem. #Overwatch

  • 295LEHNSHERR evan/teddy ⊗ david haller’s husband (@295LEHNSHERR) reported

    we’re at the point in life where i have to hotspot myself to play overwatch with minimal lag and that’s embarrassing

  • GabeWasTired IWasTired (@GabeWasTired) reported

    @Nokotaaa Ok, happened to me multiple times. Sometimes Overwatch audio and other audio goes to other sound devices. Potentially your monitor or a program. I thibk an easier fix is to open sound control panel and disable all devices you dont care having sound cone out of

  • Dahii007 Totem cleanser 💀 (@Dahii007) reported

    Why am I getting braindead gold teammates when im high plat... fix your matchmaking overwatch 🙄

  • kinziefbi Jax || Ceo Of Scarlett (@kinziefbi) reported

    @ClearTogether @Zemo_CoD and ofc overwatch the game i used to play sm lacks content and barely adds anything, so i got into black ops series again, and NOW THE NEWEST GAME IS BROKEN AF and money hungry so gaming feels depressing sometimes

  • Ebowed_Cheese ElbowedCheese30 (@Ebowed_Cheese) reported

    @overwatchleague Is it just me or is there a problem with the overwatch League app it's not letting me follow the teams it just says (something went wrong)

  • kuraziv phinks (@kuraziv) reported

    this overwatch error is pissing me off

  • OlManMakowski G1 Makowski (@OlManMakowski) reported

    @aussiespartan I’m all for OHK but it should require risk and precision. The problem with GLs is you can get that same result by just spamming hall ways like a junk rat playing Overwatch. If they got you down to a quarter shield it wouldn’t be so bad but one hit is overkill

  • _pump_chumpx2 ▽ Jumbo Dumbo Himbo ▽ BLM (@_pump_chumpx2) reported

    My wifi sucks. So, anytime someone uses the bathroom next to my bedroom while their phone is connected to the wifi it will disconnect me from match’s in Splatoon and Overwatch. EVERYTIME

  • lilslilson jesse mccree wife and kin | STONE OCEAN HYPE (@lilslilson) reported

    7. what videogames i play rn im mostly playing animal crossing, overwatch and crash bandicoot 4 i wanna get pokemon mystery dungeon and snap tho

  • daverumbold1 daverumbold (@daverumbold1) reported

    @ypdirtscratcher @HughPalmer9 @FMCANZ #CRUCIAL without needing either BS1000 or LI700 is another option (but straight K salt glyphosate may have their own compatibility issues with Overwatch)

  • rw_devon Devon RW (@rw_devon) reported

    Starting up yet another project and getting bits 'n' bobs done on other projects while I'm freelancing more than I had wanted to be (that part's a good problem) sure doesn't give much downtime. I did make time to get 9 wins in the Overwatch event today.

  • ForcedWeeb 🥝〰️🥝 (@ForcedWeeb) reported

    @Overloaded_LAS Top 5 broken heroes in the game by activation blizzard known as overwatch, released in 2016

  • GeoCrests GeoCrests (@GeoCrests) reported

    @BlizzardCS I was playing overwatch perfectly fine just now but suddenly i got disconnected from the game server and i am unable to connect back. i am also stuck on the login screen on battle net.

  • PrasadMangal2 Prasad Mangal (@PrasadMangal2) reported

    @SlepyBoii @LegacyKillaHD it brings in cash through loot cases and stuff, seriously valve should resolve those issues cause tf2 could be as big as overwatch but they would rather work on vr and tech that most cant use smh.

  • evan__online evan prower (@evan__online) reported

    where am i gonna go to get my shootgun fix??? overwatch?????

  • cpnfantastic g'raha tia enjoyer (@cpnfantastic) reported

    thinking abt it again and one of the callout points was literally that i joined the same overwatch match as them after they blocked me bc i wanted to try and ask them what ******** the issue was if that tells you how insane the behavior was

  • cargobtw Cargo (@cargobtw) reported

    Also permanently fix Fortnite endgame servers that means STOP ADDING STUPID SHIR TO MAKE THE SERVER LAGGY. While also adding competitive integrity like in games like overwatch to make sure players are accountable for what they do

  • ahriman_c Knight AhrimanC (@ahriman_c) reported

    @MDtheAgent1 @TheeMadSpartan Why though, other than lootboxes (I’d thank Overwatch for that) I haven’t heard about any problems other than some of the games being ****.
