@FuckGizzles @Splitgate Overwatch was promised to be supported with new content as a live service but soon went on life support as the Devs worked on Overwatch 2 everything in Overwatch 2 could have easily been updates to OW1 but money was sure to be a factor not sure how makeing a new game better SG...

@Agastopi I liked the first Overwatch for the first year of the game (until they broke Mercy). Should I download this one, or are the balancing issues still the same as how Overwatch ended up? Basically, is the game fun or does it make you wanna taste test the chemicals under your sink?

I think the secret to winning a 5v6 in competitive Overwatch is to just lie and say "Oh they're having mild connection issues. They'll be back." Because then people just play normally instead of immediately giving up.

@elitez88 @kodyplatt96 @OverwatchNaeri you again are ignoring every argument lmao, I have no issues with cosmetics not being free but I have a lot of issues with predatory systems and with lack of content, overwatch has not been a live service game for last 3 years because there was NO new content

Go to games when you have a group of 4-6 people? We started playing Fortnite recently but when we get more than 4 it becomes an issue. I can’t stand the 16v16 mode and I’m not alone. Previous pick was Overwatch but I think we’ve gotten burned out on it. What are your picks?

@namgibot_ttv @Birdring Sorry /s This is a known issue where if enough people report a player they get banned. Overwatch anti cheat does nothing.

@xSadFairyDemonx Not sure if you've tried them, but nraas Errortrap & Overwatch prevents a lot of the crashes for me. I don't use them, but Ellacharmed's fixed worlds might help too, as a lot of the lag/crashing in Sims 3 is caused by routing problems.

@JamieMoranUK No lie I just want Overwatch 2 and Diablo to be safe from Activision's bs, 343 may have issues but the stuff that was delaying Overwatch 2 was horrifying.

Why is Overwatch the only online game where I get HUGE lag spikes ? Any other online game I can play fine, but OW goes from 50 MS to like 100+ in a heartbeat… Wtf is going on

@Birdring Spam reports. The anticheat didnt detect you for anything. This is a common issue with overwatch, good luck getting it back

CoD has decent support. They usually hold their weight in promises. Overwatch is hella refined. Both have live service elements and eSports designed next to social playlists. So many congruencies.

@elitez88 @kodyplatt96 @OverwatchNaeri Criticize and stand up for changes that they think overwatch needs to implement to make the gameplay experience better, if they add more content and arent predatory it benefits YOU as well not just us, so why do you have issues with people asking for that

@Pith_e2 And Overwatch 2 is dropping it from 6 to 5. Annoying that their solution to double shield meta being an issue was to just drop a tank.

@elitez88 @kodyplatt96 @OverwatchNaeri my guy overwatch 1 was a live content service game, a game being F2P doesnt make it a live service game. and the future (which we are discussing) seems pretty dogshit when you look at the roadmap which promises bare minimum and SAME type of content that was there in ow 1
