  • zerojay Jaaaaaayyyyy (@zerojay) reported

    So Overwatch 2 had a patch this morning and the changelist shows tons of fixes. That's great. It's too bad the servers are currently so broken that you either get crazy 200+ms ping times or you are completely unable to join a game at all.

    Now Overwatch 2 can't load the game's content... So many errors recently, gosh!

  • sagacyte Sa-ghast-cyte (@sagacyte) reported

    @vei_oy (As an aside, the live-service nature of games like Fortnite and Destiny 2, plus the recent intrusion of Overwatch 2... all demand time from my already limited pool. RE8 is not much of an issue since it's a stream-exclusive... and lately that's just weekends 😥)
