Overwatch Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Kung Fu Man (@KungFuMan316) reported@ThatOddGuyDave From what I gather the issue is Overwatch 2's structure doesn't allow it to be ported over as is, but they should still be able to simply remake it.
-
Jay (@reiandsunshine) reportedis overwatch broken for anyone else?? i just tried playing a comp match, we all had a minor perk unlocked at the start but it didn't work, i got killed and my entire game crashed and every time i try to relaunch and rejoin, it crashes again. @BlizzardCS
-
Kevin Nogilny (@CookiesAndPilk) reported@CalamariSteven @JoshLavis @Splitgate Overwatch cosmetics carried over to Overwatch 2. It's not unreasonable to think a free to play live service game's entire means of keeping players financially invested in the game should have some carryover when the developer migrates over to a new free to play live service...
-
Quinso 🌗 (@TotallyQuinso) reported@Symmetraupdates Ah I see though I’ve noticed people just hating to hate lately with Overwatch. Oh? Same issue too? :(
-
Bug. (@Bug90345) reportedplayed my first game of overwatch in a long time first match i play they report me for sabotaging game and afk i was lagging they told me to uninstall it was unranked
-
Bortles (@Bort1es) reported@MarvelRivals overwatch 2. Killing you. It’s not for character reasons. Fix the match making
-
Rad - Alistar puppy (@Radraiki2) reported@yoshi12370 unfortunately all blizzard games have this problem. WoW for example has had its plot destroyed and sabotaged for decades just to make more money and make blizzard earn money. and overwatch unfortunately falls into the same category. and being a moba doesn't help in this sense
-
🎀Clown🎀 (@Edgyparappa) reported@genebbyy Heh now if they would just sneakily add my oc into overwatch I’ll fix everyone’s problems
-
We_Are_Turok (@I_am_Turok) reported@pampurins i would say that its not really an issue... and that ive survived with a 90% heal reduction... but... overwatch is genuinely built differently and the hero design philosophy never supported cauterized healing, so i get it. it feels suffocating. idk how to help though
-
Crogdan (@Crogdan) reportedI HAVE NOW LOST ANOTHER GAME BECAUSE MY SPIKE GUARD WAS NOT REGISTERING A HIT ON A TARGET THAT WAS UNPROTECTED AND ABOUT TO DIE. FIX THIS NOW. #HAZARD #OVERWATCH #OVERWATCH2 @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS @Blizzard_Ent
-
dricky (@dricky2011) reported@tazalotl1981 @NigelMcKinney Most of the time it's not possible to vet people properly, so a stringent overwatch of these people needs to be implemented, if they want to enter they should have no problem giving finger print and DNA samples
-
JCRE8 (@JCRE8_) reported@Blizzard_Ent please fix your game? I've been suspended enough times because of your servers. It's ruining my experience of overwatch 2
-
Bersama Poyo (@BunDanBaba) reported@ryanscottborman @heatloss1986 @AlexLuck9 Problem with the drone AWACS is that lack of crew, and why we need to risk losing lives. I remember when Global Hawk Block 40 showed up in Afghan. They told everyone they could provide NRT overwatch to convoys/SOF. We at JSTARS were pissed because that was a lie.
-
lin ♡ yoongi (@93s97) reportedyou guys fight tooth and nail about this girl but the reality is there and we see the undertones don’t act tone deaf to avoid the conversation that’s there, is it like other games? no, but does overwatch have a problem with the way they do **** like this, YES.
-

-
kat :3 (@HugeTiddyGothGf) reportedI’m going to crash out from the queue times on overwatch. This isn’t the first time I’m complaining about it. Istg if the game doesn’t rise from the dead and get some people into my games I will go insane.
-
AlbinoNemo (@nemothe2nd) reported@InsoNoSleep widow was never a problem in overwatch for like 90% of the playerbase lmao
-
elias ✧ deltarune spoilers (tagged) (@herlockkisser) reporteddoes anyone else have this problem with overwatch where all the ui just disappears out of nowhere. it only ever happens to me in competitive games,, i hit no hotkeys or anything and shift+tab to pull up the steam thing doesn't fix it. am i just built to be an unranked warrior
-
Gunter (@Gunter_Gman) reportedHow greatness is inevitable: video games. Why? I became top % in many games: 0.5% of 20 million active players in Valorant 15% in league 10% Rainbow 6 siege 10% in Halo infinite 35% on Overwatch in 6 hours. 25% on Fortnite in 12 hours. Another time I won roughly 20-25 games in a row on Valorant via pure **********. I WENT FROM GOLD 2 TO A3 IN 2 WEEKS WHILST LAGGING 100-1000Ms PEAKS. I know how to be great. I know how to conquer. I take what’s mine ruthlessly.

vene₶iaπ ~。☆꒰ 🐑🍷 (@liespiach) reporteda lot of fans of certain heroes have it a lot better than they'd make it out to be and I think it has something to do with how the overwatch fandom as a whole has a victim complex issue.
-
notoriginal (@DovydasDovis3) reported@KingKaiCUCOO @RivalsLeaks personally it feels bad to play compared to Overwatch (let’s say it’s a direct competitor), maybe cause it’s 3rd person or cause of the performance issues but it does not play anywhere near as smooth as Overwatch does
-
𝓴 (@widowmesmeric) reportedokay i’m at my dads and overwatch is running great so idk how to fix this at home, i went through my switch settings and idek 😭 i don’t know what i can adjust since im not the only on on the wifi any advice? i can’t use an ethernet cable
-
S2D (@S2D_OW) reportedam i bad at overwatch or is everyone else on my team the problem
-
Lucky_-1y (@Luckyjust1y) reported@cealestica Same, but that's not a Reinhardt thing, that's a Overwatch players problem I just bait them out and hopefully killing three per fight (or at least try) will do the trick
-
RJ (@reveluvlyz) reportedWhy am I flipping banned because overwatch kicked me out???? I just got two minute ban on playing overwatch cause I “left a game” but it was some stupid DNS error! I did not intentionally leave a game!
-
osf (@oh_ess_eff) reported@JJETSFAN u gotta use the operator bro thats a lot like overwatch stuff from what ive heard and its lowkey broken
-
Bean (@BenOst52) reportedUninstalled Marvel Rivals. The state that the game is in right now is somehow less fun than 5v5 Overwatch. I can't do this anymore. Wake ******** up dev team. Fix your damn game.
-
SOFTIE ₊˚ʚ ᗢ₊˚✧ ゚. 🩷🌸 (@SoftieF2P) reportedI am so grateful to of been seen by Overwatch again. However I am completely heart broken I cannot receive the copy. 🥹💔
