  Unfortunately I have having issues with my Overwatch 2. I need to update the bios for my PC, I will have to do this tomorrow but at the same time I will have to cancel stream for tomorrow. I'm sorry to anyone that was looking forward to the playing with viewers OW2 stream ToT

  @CarlHigbie One or two overwatch plinks would solve a lot of troubling issues.

  does anyone else have this problem with overwatch where all the ui just disappears out of nowhere. it only ever happens to me in competitive games,, i hit no hotkeys or anything and shift+tab to pull up the steam thing doesn't fix it. am i just built to be an unranked warrior

  Cyberpunk 2077's glitchfest launch aged better than Overwatch's desperate microtransactions—I'll take neon bugs & broken NPCs over Blizzard greed any day. Gaming's tragically poetic fall. #HotTake

  @KingKaiCUCOO @RivalsLeaks personally it feels bad to play compared to Overwatch (let’s say it’s a direct competitor), maybe cause it’s 3rd person or cause of the performance issues but it does not play anywhere near as smooth as Overwatch does

  @FredGra91716482 @ThatLoganJames @MewZe_ becomes fun" because that's not something I felt playing the OW beta back in the day or when I started Rivals a few months ago. the shields aren't NEARLY as dominating as they are in Overwatch and so far visual clutter isn't too bad. My main problem with OW was the...

  @CY4N4R4 I don’t get the issue, you know how the game plays it’s Overwatch the same as it has for years. Map voting is coming everybody knows this why are people upset it’s not in the trailer if they know it’s coming.

  @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.

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

  @Pirat_Nation And I'll double down in not caring about any of Sony's live service games, until they make something more interesting then another Apex Legends, and Overwatch clone.

  Why am I flipping banned because overwatch kicked me out???? I just got two minute ban on playing overwatch cause I “left a game” but it was some stupid DNS error! I did not intentionally leave a game!

  @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

  BIG HABIBI ENERGY!!! (@justjoddat_ttv) reported 25 minutes ago

  I haven't backed out of any Stadium game on purpose - it's been driver crashes and me trying to figure out the problem and now I'm on a 1 hour suspension. I couldn't even rejoin my game when I IMMEDIATELY relaunched Overwatch.

  Bean (@BenOst52) reported 25 minutes ago

  Uninstalled Marvel Rivals. The state that the game is in right now is somehow less fun than 5v5 Overwatch. I can't do this anymore. Wake ******** up dev team. Fix your damn game.

  Are we as a community gonna take responsibility, when are you the player gonna take accountability? If never then quit ya crying and play the game, if you got a problem with it go play overwatch where you will have the same issue

  @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.

  @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.

  DID OVERWATCH SERVERS JUST CRASH RN????

  why does overwatch constantly have the “the server closed due to an unexpected error” bug. FIX YOUR GAME PLEASE

• 
  HaloiOi (@Juicebox343GS) reported 42 minutes ago

  @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

  @ryanscottborman @heatloss1986 @AlexLuck9 Problem with the drone AWACS is that lack of crew, and why we need to risk losing lives. I remember when Global Hawk Block 40 showed up in Afghan. They told everyone they could provide NRT overwatch to convoys/SOF. We at JSTARS were pissed because that was a lie.

  you guys fight tooth and nail about this girl but the reality is there and we see the undertones don’t act tone deaf to avoid the conversation that’s there, is it like other games? no, but does overwatch have a problem with the way they do **** like this, YES.

  See the issue with wow currently is that it was originally designed to be tf2 but over time has become overwatch, and no matter what version of the game you try to launch the community only wants overwatch

  @_foulDOOM Same issue I had with overwatch. This game needs communication and people only talk when you are having your worst game in a month lololol
