    @GW_Alec Please don't nerf hog. You guys just need to fix the matchmaking. Hog isn't broken. A gold hog vs a silver dps is the issue and vide versa with platinum dps against a gold hog easily countering properly ect. Skill based rating is the only issue in overwatch.

  • pav4njuna Pavan (@pav4njuna) reported

    @RossyTVXXX Overwatch 2 is a mess when it comes to the community consensus - people are all over the place b/c we're going through the same thing we did with 1 - people not knowing how to play the game and blaming it on heroes when it's a skill issue lol

  • OfWolvenDescent 𝘌𝘥𝘥𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘬 (@OfWolvenDescent) reported

    @THEG0LDENLI0N // No problem! Ive been Ashe form Overwatch, A general sith, Syndra and Miss Fortune star guardian of course. Second sister cosplay and many more

  • xcalibarger Aw Datz Cute (@xcalibarger) reported

    I see a lot of people complaining about Mercy in Overwatch but when I'm in a Match i barely see anyone targeting her or the other healers. Sounds more like a skill issue to me.

  • UninspiredP uninspiredpoet 🔞⚠️ (@UninspiredP) reported

    Y'all I got tired of seeing people say Overwatch is broken because of Mercy's resurrect people should just go play Valorant so I looked it up and there are like 84 resurrects in Valorant I'm screaming.

  • Beas_sao Beas sao (@Beas_sao) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent @PlayOverwatch fix the charge on overwatch coins. I got charged $33.09 for 2000 overwatch coins and i only wanted 1000. I was charged and extra $11.03 for overwatch coins i never received and an additional 11.03 for coins i never wanted. I just want 1000 coins.

  • Kasman119 Kasey (@Kasman119) reported

    @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS please fix your Overwatch competitive rankings. I've got over 30 wins as a support this season and your bugged game won't let me leave Silver 5. It's absolutely brutal out here

  • SloFlipi SloFlipi (@SloFlipi) reported

    @HairyKraken @phylavells @Necrit94 even custom games just like tf2 and overwatch have can give you a good casual pvp experience. even then they could still bring back pve and if you dont have fun thats actually a whole nother problem. maybe not for you but the people you play with that are here for the fun.(2/2)

  • Yuwils777 Jwils Is Exhausted (@Yuwils777) reported

    @LegionzGaming I know plenty of gays who don't fw Cod or Overwatch because of these issues. In truth most folks with this stance know they have to pick their battles on things like this as it's very difficult to completely avoid companies like Amazon or Disney because they own so much

  • xTS98x Talisman (@xTS98x) reported

    Hey Overwatch. Why is my mmr apparently set to a rank I've never even reached?? How the hell has this game gone this goddamn long and theres still no fix to the ranking system.

  • bissell_mr Mr Bissell (@bissell_mr) reported from London, Ontario

    @PlayOverwatch fix the state of overwatch by changing Ramattra’s ult to: upon being attached, Ramattra’s ult’s de charge rate will be reduced by 90%(8s long= roughly 15s), 10 dmg every .5 seconds to the enemy, Ramattra gains 50 health per 1.15 seconds and 10% max health shield OA

  • AndroDioneVT Andro Dione (@AndroDioneVT) reported

    for those who cares. I stopped playing overwatch 2 cause I kept on connecting in NA. Thats how bad my internet is. I'm still trying to fix it. That means it might take me a while to comeback to streaming

  • doguemastiff Doguemastiff (@doguemastiff) reported

    @ihatelaika @PlayOverwatch I know Overwatch is having a serious matchmaking problem that needs to be fixed

  • MarioJudahOW Nik (@MarioJudahOW) reported

    been playing overwatch for the last 15 hours of my life. boutta stay up another 15 to fix the sleep schedule. starting to hear voices any advice?

  • LowriderStudios Russbjorn (@LowriderStudios) reported

    Please stop informing people that Overwatch ranking is broken I'm trying to relish going from low bronze this time last year to Plat 1

  • Shakeyspeares Shakeyspeare (@Shakeyspeares) reported

    @CloverWzy Slowly killing apex one game at a time. Keep saying this but as bad for the game as Brig was for overwatch but they actually delt with the situation & removed her. Time out Seer & get him reworked in a better place. Can't deal with buffs & nurfs not working dragging it all on out

  • zorietyArt Cheyen airlines🧪🦠💚 (@zorietyArt) reported

    I don't like that quote that's 'you can tell good character design from instantly recognizable silhouette' like sure, if you're designing for overwatch where that's important to gameplay, but if you're making a story about an office, silhouettes looking similar is not a problem

  • scyllapilled alhaitham waiting room (@scyllapilled) reported

    @ItsSomjuu All overwatch Twitter does is spam tweet about how much they hate broken hero of the week like we really don't gaf

  • random123_dude Random dude (@random123_dude) reported

    @OnepegMG @BigfryTV Why dont they implement an overwatch system like in CS or a replay system in PUBG ? Why dont they fix the sound problems ? Veritas made a whole video about this. They releasing new stuff without fixing the old stuff. 2/x

  • adracsty Andrea (@adracsty) reported

    if i see one more whiny overwatch player tweet about how mercy is broken i might have a mental breakdown

  • aidxn2k Aidan (@aidxn2k) reported

  • NoAvi6 logan (parody) 🐀 (@NoAvi6) reported

    love when my overwatch games disconnect and then apparently its my fault so i get deranked and suspended for it

  • mroway debil (@mroway) reported

    @basement_chan i feel like 90% people who play overwatch are people who have ego issues and are just straight up toxic

  • SzaMyPussy 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐲 ⋆ (@SzaMyPussy) reported

    If this was season 6/7 of overwatch id completely understand people wanting mercy Nerfed or changed however, it’s not. She is not a game breaking character and she is most definitely not the deciding factor in a match please stop waffling about her being broken she’s not.

  • heung_version b2 (@heung_version) reported

    @grapefantas is it a bad idea for me to get into valorant bc i’m worried abt running into the same issues that overwatch 2 is having rn 😭

  • soopamonkey BIG AZZA DOG (@soopamonkey) reported

  • Kausza THIS KAU IS C H O N K Y (@Kausza) reported

    uninstalling overwatch 2 to get my life back. this game is addictive and it is a problem💀 I don't think it is a coincidence that the two games I have been addicted to longterm have been developed by Blizzard
