  Miriam 'fuckng' Undertale (@miwiamundertale) reported 4 seconds ago

  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

  I am so grateful to of been seen by Overwatch again. However I am completely heart broken I cannot receive the copy. 🥹💔

  Kevin Nogilny (@CookiesAndPilk) reported 3 minutes ago

  @CalamariSteven @JoshLavis @Splitgate Overwatch cosmetics carried over to Overwatch 2. It's not unreasonable to think a free to play live service game's entire means of keeping players financially invested in the game should have some carryover when the developer migrates over to a new free to play live service...

  @Blizzard_Ent I literally just got penalized in Overwatch because everything froze and crash while I was in a match, and it just happened twice today..

  @reddhado Wait for really I've been swapping so many drivers to fix stutters in overwatch

• 
  daws (@TTVdaws__) reported 10 minutes ago

  @MrQuattro39 You might have to revert to the previous version of the drivers. I updated to their newest one, and OverWatch kept on giving me this error over and over and over. I rolled back my update, and the issue hasn't happened since

  @dottanic I hate that skins seem like the only actual piece of content we can look forward to.. like the whole trailer was 30 seconds of stadium **** and the rest was showcasing skins.. I don't buy skins but I think overwatch created this problem themselves and likes when people are upset

  @yesPotatoe_ did your overwatch crash too

  Leon (@bobafettyaoi) reported 22 minutes ago

  @rodiprimes yeah I figured 😭😭 tho what’s funny is that I’ve had no problem adjusting to paladins on pc from getting used to the controls with overwatch

• 
  The Grink🇵🇸 (@TrinityJuul) reported 23 minutes ago

  @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

  @Irumaame im not doing that? im telling yall to focus on actual issues like her death instead of some retard **** like overwatch skins 😭🙏 holy **** is it that hard to talk about REAL LIFE ISSUES

  1 Typ oder so (@1Typoderso) reported 24 minutes ago

  @CounterStrike RIP Dangerzone RIP Operations RIP 128 tick RIP Flying Scoutsman RIP Overwatch RIP stable frametimes and latency RIP Achievements RIP distinct CS look, now replaced by soulless comic style Fix the missing content, hitreg and cheater pandemic, then we can talk.

  @lavindarr overwatch and genshin community is an expert in making ships that make nosense or have no chemistry between two characters who dont even know each other just to avoid making hetero ships. i wouldnt see any problems if they didnt judge those who dont share the same ships as them

  9 9 9 (@TheFoundingDrlp) reported 25 minutes ago

  @_wave00 Nah i think this game has fundamental game design issues, overwatch been catering to casuals for ages and TF2 aint even balanced at all and they got consistent player counts lol

• 
  Hectermancer (@hectermage) reported 26 minutes ago

  @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.

  Bortles (@Bort1es) reported 27 minutes ago

  @MarvelRivals overwatch 2. Killing you. It’s not for character reasons. Fix the match making

• 
  HaloiOi (@Juicebox343GS) reported 30 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

  @Greenpig117 >overwatch players came over Bro we were there day 1😭😭😭 And ow players knew where problems might appear and were right. I want rivals to succeed long term but holy ****, not with this attitude

• 
  wA Mighty (@MightyAims) reported 41 minutes ago

  @Bluah97 Sensor is decent, I think it’s either 3370 or 3395, and it performs amazing in game, no issues when playing any game, and doesn’t feel any different than any other mouse using a 480hz monitor in Overwatch

  overwatch, wdym I can't hear my gf sing now 😡😡 fix the vc 😡😡😡

• 
  Bean (@BenOst52) reported 44 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.

  @dvd_es2 @MRivalsEsports its not better than ow at all ow had a support issue that theyve mostly fixed marvel rivals supports are much much stronger than overwatch supports at their peaks

  @astrowaree @SlizzaCS @ThourCS2 Saying Id dont anything is kinda nonsense. Premier has million times more cheaters. Faceit can't ban all cheaters but cheating issue is significantly less Also we had id system in MM before. The phone number. Valve removed it to help cheaters. Just like they removed overwatch

• 
  E nigma (@Inscryptioner) reported 49 minutes ago

  @j_step21 Hot take, but Concord wasn't 'terrible' as a game. The issue was, it was just Overwatch but slower. The lore was pretty decent, and it seems someone put effort into that. It's just a shame the character designs were so piss poor and it brought nothing new to the table

• 
  Creepy Crawler (@ThCreepyCrawler) reported 50 minutes ago

  @fuckhankandtony The main problems with that would be similar to the reason Lifeweaver is hated in overwatch Would there be a confirmation every time he carries you back? If not would that result in a lot of throwing? Stuff like that. Very interesting tho

  My English is so broken, because I'd absorved non stop words and accents of every english speaking country... I blame nijisanji and the aussie overwatch content creators.

  Grok (@grok) reported 57 minutes ago

  I couldn't find any info on whether Stefan Horrocks is bald, as his public profiles focus on his Overwatch gameplay, not his appearance. The question seems like a playful jab tied to a thread about homophobia in the Overwatch community, where Horrocks used a barber shop analogy. There's no evidence to confirm his baldness, so it's likely just banter. The thread highlights a real issue: homophobia is a problem in Overwatch, with players reporting frequent slurs and harassment. Blizzard's moderation efforts exist but are often seen as lacking, especially in-game. Better community standards could help.
