Overwatch Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Robin "Darth Laser" Boss. (@TI_DarthLaser) reportedActivision Blizzard's behaviour shown in this article has broken me. I've loved Blizzard for years. I've loved WoW, WC3, Diablo, Overwatch, Hearthstone and SC. I'm so done with this... Activision destroy our games, lay off the devs and **** over the community. **** them.
-
Planeswalker (@Planeswalker18) reportedHey guys (followers/mutuals). The Activision thing is making me sick to my stomach. I showed that company immense support through Crash, Rayman, Call of Duty, Overwatch, and a lot more. Now I feel wracked with guilt over how much I gave in support of that nightmare.
-
well hi (@EkonBarnes) reported@onlyanonymity @ChristianColeCS @Sabriality But the issue with the post is they are acting as if the root cause of this issue is the overwatch league/blizzard.
-
Rob Henderson (@lilbitfrosty) reportedI see a lot of people uninstalling Overwatch, WoW and refunding their Diablo 2 preorder. Activision also needs to be held accountable, not just Activision Blizzard. Crash, Spyro and Tony Hawk are all funding that behaviour. It all needs to go, otherwise there's no real point.

🌸𝕜𝕒𝕥🌸 (@guiltyparti) reported@PlayStation Fix servers pls I want to play overwatch and mald
-
Charzilla_ (@Charzilla__) reportedActivision is disgusting. I'm glad I never really supported them. At most I've bought Overwatch, nothing else. I'm dossapointed games/characters like Crash Bandicoot are owned by them. I hope Crash and other game franchises can continue through a different company.
-
Alviss (@AlvissEdgehart) reported@KyleParanormal Definitely likely going to uninstall Overwatch. It's fun but Blizzard doesn't care about the community in it or the many issues it faces. Reporting toxic players usually never comes to fruition either. This whole thing solidified my choice to uninstall the game.
-
Let's Play Hombre! (On hiatus) (@LetsPlayHombre) reported@RhinoShowTV Good take. The problem won't go away if we uninstall overwatch.
-
neutral good furry (@ASliceOfFoxloaf) reportedi wonder if the overwatch VAs are under some contract to not say anything bad about blizzard, because i want to believe they're good people and not part of the problem.
-
Сибәрпанк 2077 (@birdroid_) reportedalso, the whole issue goes to show that the 'sjw agenda' in overwatch and else is but a facade the values of this company
-
Tyler Wilson (@straightedge109) reportedIf Ubisoft and Epic are anything to go by, Activision will pay lip service, and everyone will forget about it when Diablo 4 or Overwatch 2 come out.
-
Grizzzlybearzz (@GrizzlyBTC) reported@cataclysmza @takanuva093 @SkillUpYT It’s not both lol did you even read it? It’s the blizzard side only. Overwatch and WoW dev teams. And the Epstein stuff is serious tin hat ****. I guess you can’t fix stupid though
-
Jack Langley (@Jack32X) reportedBuh buh buh MA OVERWATCH this issue is bigger than you wanting to play a rubbish game. The Blizzard you knew and loved is gone. It’s time people realised that
-
Adria (@PepsiIstheName) reported@AskPlayStation I seem to be having problems loging into Overwatch and Paladin's. And I've been told by there game devs it's not a problem on their side. Any idea what's going on or to do?
-
Tiiiiired | Hiatus (@m00nlithalo) reportedRemember when Blizzard got in trouble for banning a player for having the audacity to say “Liberate Hong Kong” and then showcased their first Black woman character for Overwatch at Blizzcon right after….
-
Taylor Brouwer Black widow/marvel brainrot (@Taikofan04) reportedWhy do Spyro, crash, and overwatch have to be owned by activison
-
Darryl Mott (@Abstruse) reported@azoolaboola @Nash076 The distraction announcement wouldn't be Crash Bandicoot anyway. We'll get some big Overwatch or Call of Duty thing announced by the end of the week in an attempt to blow the lawsuit out of the news cycle.
-
Slushee (@Noah73069835) reported@TheAnaSan @krxlice @HoshizoraOW Not 8 years and why is that an issue there are black females in overwatch they are just not playable if we can complain about not having a black character who is a woman then how dare they not add an Italian in the game or someone from Spain #canceloverwatch
-
GrandDanz (@GrandDanz) reportedI will never refuse to play a game. However, reading accounts been going on with Activision Blizzard. I am sicken and mortified. I thought they will fix their company, but as of today. I'm not going to play overwatch or COD anymore. What ******** Blizzard?
-
Thomas Tran (@infinity_tran) reportedCall of Duty World of Warcraft Diablo Candy Crush Hearthstone OverWatch Spyro Skylanders Crash Bandicoot Sekiro
-
Chara789 (@Chara70580725) reportedThis Activision-Blizzard stuff sucks. On one hand, I wanna play Overwatch 2, since it looks to be fixing a ton of issues I have with the original. On the other, I don't want to give a cent to a company that does that kind of ****. ****
-
78 Days until Metroid Dread (@AngryLokus) reportedMade my overwatch videos private Might end up deleting them **** overwatch And don't even get overwatch 2 Or any blizzard Activision game Even crash and Spyro They need to ******* rot
-
Dougy (@DougyisHere) reported@Rageful_Tomato From my understanding ow 2 is trying to generate hype to hopefully jump start overwatch again as well on possibly fixing some problems ow 1 had like having a story that could only be found in comic books and shorts
-
Patrik Liba (@PatrikLiba1) reported@tacticalgrandma You got some issues? Why you trash on Overwatch for alleged bad of few?
-
John (@MegaAmpster) reportedReally makes me wish Activison didn’t own Crash and Spyro. If possible, I would want Vicarious Visions/Toys For Bob to split off or be partnered with another publisher And then literally trash Activision/Blizzard. **** your CoD, **** Overwatch, this is completely unacceptable
-
Oswald (@Beavsi) reported@swagtastic666 I was playing Total Mayhem on Overwatch and apparently Winston is insane in that mode so the enemies played as Ball and Mei so they could stall on overtime for 21 minutes And then some enemy who's like level 300 switched to Sombra and got mad at us playing broken characters
-
caitlin / puke (@slowpuke_) reportedim glad the only activision **** ive ever been interested in is spyro, crash bandicoot and tony hawk. because i never have to give them another cent again! emulators baybee! if i see anyone i know buying overwatch 2 or any new cod games i’ll be mean to you.
-
Eric Ravenscraft (@LordRavenscraft) reportedlook I don't want to police people's reactions to the Activision/Blizzard **** but it feels to me weird if your reaction is to rant about some WoW storyline you hated or a balance problem with Overwatch. like, there are bigger issues here, my friend??
-
Snoozie (@SuzySnoozie) reported@LeemerBean Because people are idiots? The only thing ive "bought" from activision recently was black ops cold war for zombies and i didnt even buy it Also you bought crash 4 didnt you Like sometimes you just want a game Remember the hong kong **** and they announced overwatch 2 and poof
-
the himbofication of Teruna bin Bujang (@vvakingsands) reportedI cannot say I haven't been a saint about this either because I did briefly return to Overwatch to play with friends. I forgot what it was that made me stop playing altogether, but I think it had something to do with an issue with Blizzard as well.
