Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • VGlaceon Vlea 🍰🍡 (2/5 comms) (@VGlaceon) reported

    The problem with overwatch porn is that there’s not enough hyper fetish stuff. Or am I not looking deep enough

  • ICA_Agent_47 Agent47 @ Vampire Survivors GOTY (@ICA_Agent_47) reported

    @HoKageeV1 @IdleSloth84_ Call of duty ≠ Activision blizzard games Crash, overwatch, diablo, wow and plenty of other IPs are involved, not just call of duty. Xbox mentions call of duty will remain multiplatform, no word on the rest

  • BanditBandido PizzaNuggs (@BanditBandido) reported

    ok #overwatch how broken can you make Ramattra?

  • GummyGGS Gummy (@GummyGGS) reported

    @jayciitv Yeah and it would ruin the base game if it succeeded. I have no problem with BRs but I don’t want the base Overwatch to become secondary to the BR. Genuinely makes me so sad to see how little content gets added to multiplayer on cod now. And yeah balancing would be hard

  • 400brains 400brains on Twitch (@400brains) reported

    @Andriatic I wish they’d fix it, this was one of the few things I thought was pretty cool about Overwatch.

  • FranckyFox2468 François Godbout (@FranckyFox2468) reported

    @cybuuorg @yoshi12370 I had my issues with overwatch's writting but it was mostly mind boggling inconsistencies (which still kinda happens nowadays but ive gotten used to it by now). I never got anyone harassing writers over a ship. Some cases goes REALLY far with those.

    @OWAnonymous_ Now I know overwatch players just love to complain holy ****, no way you mentioned riot WHOS 5v5 team games suffer if not worse then overwatch’s counterpick problem

  • AnglerSean Sean (@AnglerSean) reported

    Bruh how do I keep playing better and better in overwatch and then go from Gold 2 and every single game is just one sided massacre and then I’m back to Silver 1 and can’t rank up and all games are still one sided? Overwatch Rank system is broken as hell

  • midlratio Daniel plainview (@midlratio) reported

    @BlizzardCS had a dns error at the end of my game in overwatch, reconnected immediately but the game was over so I was suspended for 8 hours, is there any way you can help me out with this?

  • inkblurt andrewhinton is on the fediverse 😷 (@inkblurt) reported

    @amyjokim @supercell Overwatch did this and replaced it with something much less fun & surprising … I know there are issues with loot boxes but intermittent reward is powerful

  • GlitchTheDragon 2.0 (@GlitchTheDragon) reported

    @ItsSomjuu If blizzard made a BR title with all of the IP from overwatch, I would learn how to code and **** just so I could DDOS the game

  • Waluigi_Main Nothing (@Waluigi_Main) reported

    The item shop in overwatch is glitched lol, new bastion skin was only 1 ow credit. I mean this is the best glitch in the game lol

  • GhostTheGamer_ GhostTheGamer (@GhostTheGamer_) reported

    I was on vacay from playing Overwatch 2 and it felt so good! I’m back now and oh boy I feel so bad for the people spending their hard earned money on this game. Like minimal effort to fix competitive matchmaking. #nevergonnachange #Overwatch2

  • Gale_Adelade Gale (@Gale_Adelade) reported

    Some positivity about Overwatch: I’m personally enjoying season 2 a lot more than 1 I think the hotfix they did recently was solid and addressed a good amount of problems. I’m excited for the roadhog rework too. Sojourn still OP but we’re on the right track again it feels like.

  • CoolkidCodo95 Callum O (@CoolkidCodo95) reported

    @PlayOverwatch I’ve played 5000 games of yeti hunter queued for the yeti every time and not once have I’ve been the yeti! How is this far? Fix your game and stop toxic players being abusing for having a disability! Come on Overwatch.

  • mangopurade skittl 🐀🇪🇺 (@mangopurade) reported

    overwatch is actually ******* broken ******* blueball entertainment over here cant make a ******* functional game to save their lives. absolutely insane.

  • zaddybeatz Freddie or Not (@zaddybeatz) reported

    @KyleRLamont Ugh. That’s the problem. I want to play horizon forbidden wests expansion but also overwatch

  • Koufiu Koufu🏳️‍⚧️ (@Koufiu) reported

    It isn’t fun trying to explain to my friends how Overwatch 2’s ranked mode has broken matchmaking. We have to play it anyways and its never fun! I always have to mute them because they always yell at me for not “doing enough” even though its just numbers…

  • OhSalcedo OhJason (@OhSalcedo) reported

    Urgent care did nothing for me, stream and game kept lagging, getting used to the amount of sensory overload there is in a standard game of overwatch because of ramattra, and I had a certain ( extremely dogshit ) torb otp type at me the entire game. Overall not a great day.

  • Iainlol iain (@Iainlol) reported

    Why are overwatch servers so unstable tonight? Rubber banding in every match & it’s not my internet cause I’ve speed checked it. Please fix @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCSEU_EN @OverwatchEU

  • Senuziko Zeno (@Senuziko) reported

    I am not playing Overwatch until they fix doomfist when he isn’t the ******* worst hero in the game right now

  • poop_4_ adnaan (@poop_4_) reported

    @PaulEastlondon I had the same issue, my friends and I just stopped playing overwatch cuz of that 💀

  • OfficiallyJewls ✨Jewl ✨ (@OfficiallyJewls) reported

    Looks like the new Overwatch bundle is broken... Selling for one singular overwatch coin, but it doesn't let u actually use it. So, you can buy it but can't use it lmfao

  • Gen_Why_Ent Generation Why? Entertainment (@Gen_Why_Ent) reported

    @LightMatane I’d just hire another Asian woman and give her a kind of similar gimmick but also rip off DVA from overwatch a bit. “Skill issue”

  • dangerswlf Ramen (@dangerswlf) reported

    @PlayOverwatch so basically, the problem with this is that if you are saving up overwatch coins to buy this battle pass towards the end of the season, if you miss a few weekly challenges, you might end up with 999 coins at the end of the season, and you will not be able to get this battle pass.

  • Kitren_ Kit (@Kitren_) reported

    The game is buggy, it has it's issues. Balancing every hero in the game take WORK. The Overwatch team has been so responsive. Skins cost a arm, the bpass is gimmiky, but they're just cosmetics! They help fund the game and it's devs to continue to bring us new content!

  • Timothy_Mark7 Timothy Mark! 🎄 (@Timothy_Mark7) reported

    @Corntsune @TriHardPaladins @PaladinsGame where did i say that? im saying overwatch is in a messy spot and the fact that game is doing better on communication and trying to fix something better than paladins says something

  • JupiterNieR Jupiter🌙 (@JupiterNieR) reported

    Overwatch devs don’t have a clue how to balance a game and I’m convinced their play testers are either Bronze or don’t even exist. How is Orisa so ******* broken? How are like 5/6 characters so much better than anyone else? This game sucks ***.
