    Overwatch 2 getting DDOS attacks cuz some mentally unstable nerd in their basement is upset that people want to play it. These goblins really want the game to fail so much that they will go out of their way to ruin it.

    the queue rimes for overwatch 2 aren't even bad for a new launch, its literally every other error (server errors, getting kicked oit of games, getting told you've been avoided as teammate too many times before you can even pLAY the game) that's the issue
