@bobbystockings @flexhole We see no example of cops being that way in Overwatch. What if they fixed (most) of their judicial and law-enforcement systems' flaws? What if it was never even a problem in the game's universe? I just don't think it's that deep unless obviously referencing a bad example.

@brokecatmom @TheValTimes But it’s like that in every other game no? Like Overwatch or LoL where you pick what you like/master before picking what fits better in the comp so I genuinely don’t see where the issue is

@PlayOverwatch How long are you going to keep pretending to have solved the issues about the overwatch league rewards? you messed up so badly that you decided to shove your mistakes under the rug and pretend everything was fine. You screwed up.

@DINOBERRY7 @PlayOverwatch it’s allll good the only problem is that overwatch is delaying giving them out, i had it up for prolly like 80% of the whole OWL they just haven’t distributed them yet

Gold 4 Tank, wondering why my Kiriko is doing so badly… She was Bronze 5 & new to Comp. UH HOW WERE THEY IN MY GAME?! That’s not fair on them??? Matchmaking in Overwatch 2 is so broken, I’m losing all faith in the game entirely at this point

@AndreLSS91 @RegisLimaCoelh1 @Zuby_Tech Final Fantasy is 1 IP. COD, Overwatch, Elder Scrolls, Diablo, Doom, Crash, Fallout, Spyro, Dishonored and Senua's Saga are 10 IPs. If they didn't lock Bethesda's games to Xbox from the get go, maybe regulators wouldn't be so careful.

@SmugSol @Demolition_Nuke @OverwatchNaeri If this EXACT skin was added to Overwatch 1 then yeah, and there'd be no issues as it would not be a recolour. But contextually HERE it is a recolour with minor alterations, which constitutes an epic skin So if instead it was an ow1 recolour as a legendary, no we'd still be mad.

@TMB_DIGGY @OverwatchNaeri Donno if you saw it and if it will give you a bit of copium but the new head-something-something of Overwatch put out a statement. Saying that he does get the fans anger, he plays the game himself and also sees the issues and that their working on it. Giving some hints for future

@PlayOverwatch Fix your broken game. I have been calling it Overwatch 2 Spawn Camp edition. Your game is garbage, the balance is horrible. Sick of being added to half over severely losing games. I should be able to opt out of that crap. People leave the games because your game is NOT FUN

@zenahbu All of your tweets are correct but is not only apex this is happening in general, they are reducing games skill gap, they want to balance the player not the games, that's why are broken heroes on overwatch broken weapons on apex and the almighty aimassist.

@IRLBabynikki Yeah prop hunt would be a lot of fun. I think if Apex had daily changing modes like Overwatch, the game would be more fun, right now it's broken SBMM battle royal or broken SBMM arena. Oh and then there's something similiar to ranked.

@BlizzardCS My son is trying to play overwatch 2 and it says he cant sign in due to account verification. which is odd because he had been playing with his friends for a few days. He was in the top 1000 players in the world for overwatch 1 this is a glitch that needs to be fixed

@JaroszewskiK @dancantstream If the issues made it unplayable totally fair, I'd feel the same. Problem with Apex for me is the abilities, feels like I'm playing Overwatch - using them doesn't "use up resources" like using grenades/etc. If they made a mode without characters and their abilities I'd 100%.

@BlizzardCS my highlights section of overwatch is broken :/ every time i click on it, it freezes and disconnects me from the game, logging me out. i sign back in & all of my recent highlights from today are gone?

(@Fudster_) reported
@GEveonline Could be done. Assault type PVE maps for winning resources for HQ. Resources allow building upgrades which can be purchased in local. PVP maps in overwatch style would help dictate a local control of a map. A big problem might be synchronising this across a global player base

I feel like almost every TCG outside of Magic The Gathering has the Overwatch problem. Unlike TF2 where basically every server has its own dumb casual rules Overwatch is basically just a big funnel into competitive play.

@PlayOverwatch can you fix the damn matchmaking systems? I’m tired of having new overwatch players as teammates. Keep them in a different server.

(@FraxtureOW) reported
Anyone else having issues trying to join a group on overwatch? I get an invite, accept it and then nothing happens. Same if I invite someone. I legit can't play with just 1 person because a group already has to be established for me to be able to join.

Anyone else think that the issue with matchmaking being so bad in Overwatch 2 is caused by Blizzard being dumb as hell and removing the level system?

I went from silver 2 to gold 2 and I have re-placed gold 2 3 times in a row. It's so stupid I have to suffer, with winstreaks, only to not even go up or down. Every game is toxic beyond belief too. fix ur game @PlayOverwatch #Overwatch #Overwatch2

@Bawdy_G @PlayOverwatch Ever since the OW2 update I was having some serious issues with the internet. Well until last week, until the firewall changes. I tried changing my firewall settings for Overwatch, but no luck. Then I tried completely disabling my firewall, surprisingly it worked.(Try)

@BlizzardCS Thanks for that. My other concern is that I’m going to get a copy/paste macro response to my reply and then it’ll take longer to get another response while, in the meantime, I’m not able to login to Overwatch 2 on Xbox (I can login to same account on PC tho).

@zzzenika this Junkrat skin is very cool, I really liked it! My only problem with this skin is that it is VERY VERY expensive in my country, no kidding, this skin is costing almost the same price that I paid in Overwatch when it was still paid

(@ShinyMiraidon) reported
The problem with Overwatch 2's reporting system is that it will not take into account the fact that there are people who passively trigger other players by throwing. So it only punishes the player that snaps, but not the actual problem: the person ruining comp matches throwing.

@BlizzardCS plz fix overwatch’s inability to join up with your friends, I get their invites and they get mine but simply nothing happens when we join. It was working fine the other day
