    idk why but overwatch 2 feels so much more exhausting to play so far. i can get on ow1 and easily spend 3-4 hours no problem but after like 45 minutes of 2 i'm like 😑

  • Dvhge1D Dvhge Dvhge (@Dvhge1D) reported

    @BJ_Hark @GBubner 20l drums were great no problems. 110l drums were a stuff up. Will not be buying overwatch in 110l drums again, which is a problem as I hate 20l drums.

  • AenderLara Aender Lara 🍩 (@AenderLara) reported

    I loved Overwatch, but I really think the 2 has a big marketing issue and is just the number 2 in the title, should be sell as massive update and no a sequel.

  • Dvhge1D Dvhge Dvhge (@Dvhge1D) reported

    @BJ_Hark @GBubner After my experience with overwatch that would solve all my problems. Great effort

  • BookmanTymere Truly_that_Guy (@BookmanTymere) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ Xqc played overwatch before streaming tho?? As for Pokimane, I don’t see an issue. She’s practically helping promote the game to a bigger audience who may previously had no interest in OW at all.

  • BeyondPlut0 -.-. ..- -- (@BeyondPlut0) reported

    @OshaHere @Sunrise_Andrew The problem with the story mode applies to multiplayer as wel, the core gameplay is the same and isn’t changed. Any additional content they’ll come up down the line still won’t make a huge difference and warrant overwatch 2 being a sequel

  • DavidJu36597805 David Justice (@DavidJu36597805) reported

    @XboxSupport Games are launching, but it seems like there's a loss of connection somewhere. Overwatch launched but fails to login. Diablo launches but fails to login. Ark opens and I can see the server list, but the connection just times out.

  • danteasr dante (@danteasr) reported

    @Stylosa fr overwatch 2 lighting is actually *** as **** man. They better fix that ****, because the lighting is so ugly. Its just yellow and blinding, makes the game harder to aim in etc.

  • Dutchwhat DutchWhoArts (@Dutchwhat) reported

    @blizzard mystery heroes on Overwatch is broken. It doesn't rotate you through all the characters. I get doomfist every other character

  • NoviceSimp SIMP 💜DREAM DADDY NASUS ENJOYER💜 (@NoviceSimp) reported

    And when you are climbing to higher ranks he will not be enough so you need to play another champ that can outplay another. Overwatch lacks something like that. There is characters that are for monkeys and some for big brains but the problem is that the monkeys characters 5/?

  • AlfieSdv LooseyGoosey (@AlfieSdv) reported

    Ok here are my ideas to fix the god awful character of Mercy in Overwatch. One easy step is to just remove her. But if we HAVE to keep her in the game then I have a few easy things.

  • JesusPokemon56 Jack Porter (@JesusPokemon56) reported

    @alluux_ @PlayOverwatch Overwatch at the beginning was awesome bc everyone was broken to the point where no one cares about who you picked. I'll see if ow2 would have a story mode if not not going to buy.

  • AstralRias Astral Rias (@AstralRias) reported

    @TheAshenLuca It was resolved, im pretty sure they sent out a tweet late last night, although the only problem I had was it saying I didn't own overwatch for a few minutes then it worked just fine for me

  • PlanktonPoster1 PlanktonPoster (@PlanktonPoster1) reported

    @shestalks @JasonGoldFalcon Why can't they do that in the first overwatch? It's still gonna have balancing issues and 5v5 overly competitive will be just too tiring to be fun

  • pskinner11 Preston Skinner (@pskinner11) reported

    @alluux_ @PlayOverwatch Overwatch hasn't been good in years. OW2 wont fix anything.

  • refactorfiend rasiim bey shabazz (@refactorfiend) reported

    @QuanSai overwatch be giving me that fix. but I'm a lightweight gamehead so iono

  • ibadgrammar ibadgrammar (@ibadgrammar) reported

    @scorbonnie my remember play overwatch and i quit because i not good my rage issues

  • HanaMxngo sSpecta | Struggling (@HanaMxngo) reported

    WE WON 5V3 GAME AGAINST TROLLERS, THEY STILL GETS RR DESPITE THE FACT THAT THEY TROLLED THE SYSTEM IS FLAWED, MULTIPLE KYS, SLURS AND OTHER BAD THINGS AND TROLLING ALL GAME OVER SIMPLE EGO CALLING SOMEONE A BAITER, FIX UR PUNISHMENT SYSTEM RIOT, ADD OVERWATCH SYSTEM @riotgames !

  • punsandbunsgg CLG PunsAndBuns (@punsandbunsgg) reported

    @SkyFox_E54 @LorangerChris Game Dev does not always align with the competitive esports side - this is true for all games and not just in Overwatch. Something that seems like a simple fix isn't a simple fix. The issue isn't the teleporter on the wall - the issue is using it to break the bounds of the map.

  • ThielCapital Nick Motycka (It's Czech) (@ThielCapital) reported

    @soyboy115 @CoffeeRobo @9_volt_ if you think shields are the problem with overwatch you understand how the game works just as poorly as the devs, which is why the game will never be fixed

  • Cheesehead302 MEETROID DREAD HOLY SHEET (@Cheesehead302) reported

    @You_Cant_Beat_D @CoffeeRobo @9_volt_ As someone that does think Overwatch could be more, it does slightly infuriate me seeing people **** talk it and call it toxic for years due to certain aspects, then here nearly every problem is actually addressed and now... people are bitching that it's toxic and **** talking.

  • punsandbunsgg CLG PunsAndBuns (@punsandbunsgg) reported

    @LorangerChris I think that we'll have to agree to disagree. I think Overwatch needs to hot-fix faster, but I'll never be on the side of allowing exploits based on their level of excitement/competitive advantage. There is too much up to interpretation.

  • stezzyme • youth • (@stezzyme) reported

    @MarsMews @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS Question, do u have this problem only with overwatch? Cause im having this kinda problem with OW but with other games dont 🙃

  • Yellowflower42 Cresso The Grey (@Yellowflower42) reported

    The issue with Overwatch 2 is the name. Owners of OW1 will get all PvP content of OW2 for free. All they have to pay for is the PvE. This essentially makes OW2 a big update with PvE DLC. But they call it Overwatch 2 which confuses ******** out of everyone

  • def_not_noose gen 1 gamer (@def_not_noose) reported

    I will probably never play overwatch again but sojurn or whatever looks kinda sick I like her crash bandicoot *** slide and slide jump

  • Techbot_Alpha Techbot_Alpha (@Techbot_Alpha) reported

    -The one time I was going to get some use out of overwatch vs a reinforcement portal, they spawned nowhere near the portal? On the other side of a wall, in fact. That... seems broken? -Nothing said a Psycannon armed marine couldn't Execute in melee. That really stuffed me today.

  • RetroLogicGames Dan ⚡ RetroLogic (@RetroLogicGames) reported

    @MrYoshi96 @aidanthegamer5 The strategy is intended to keep people involved in a multiplayer focused game for longer. And nobody complains about it in games like Splatoon or Overwatch. Maybe these types of games just aren't for you? Because I have no problem with it.

  • RollingSloth Rollingsloth (@RollingSloth) reported

    tbh, the tone and lighting of Overwatch 2 do not seem to be such a good decision. I think the problem of visibility in the beta version should be modified. Well, maybe it's because I have Red-Green Color Weakness..?

  • jenmcgarryart Jennifer McGarry (@jenmcgarryart) reported

    @AenderLara calling it overwatch 2.0 would’ve solved this issue completely, i think

  • XxXBabyBunnyXx1 🌸💕Baby Bunny💕🌸 (@XxXBabyBunnyXx1) reported

    @woah_itsbecca How long did you have to wait for? And did they just update your overwatch login place or how did you get it?! I’m like so confused and worried I’ll do something wrong and miss my chance!
