  • SimonRK1 M⊕r✞IS.R.K 🇦🇹 (@SimonRK1) reported

    @OrdinaryGamers My problem with SBMM is that in practice it doesn't work that well, I both stomp and get stomped more often in games that have SBMM (Overwatch, R6S) compared to games like CS:Source or Team Fortress 2 community servers that have no SBMM and instead a server browser.

  • RL_Gloom Gloom RL (@RL_Gloom) reported

    @drifterxexe @Shalquoir_ @FroggerOW The problem is whales pay for it. Every knife in Val is over 35 and some reach 55. Every skin worth buying is 20-25. These prices will be permanent because people are willing to pay, the same is true in Overwatch unless their sales absolutely tank which I don't see happening.

  • GetReqqed QtReq (@GetReqqed) reported

    FIX YOUR GAME ITS BEEN 12+ HOURS I JUST WANT TO PLAY. I NEVER PLAYED OVERWATCH 1 AND I PLAY OVERWATCH 2 SPEND MONEY JUST TO RECIEVE THE LONGEST HOLD IVE EVER ENCOUNTERED WITH A GAME IN MY LIFE. WHAT THE HECK MAN. @BlizzardCS @PlayOverwatch

  • danyanagahi Author D.Holland (@danyanagahi) reported

    @blizzard has to urgently fix the overwatch 2 competitive pairing, it's ridiculous and frustrating for the player who gives the blood in a match and plays since 1 fall with the newbie crowd that is still getting the idea of ​​the game and rising from link. #Overwatch2

  • JakeSmi96996979 Jake Smith (@JakeSmi96996979) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Overwatch my game is bugged it won’t let me loads it please fix ur ******* game

  • quietblueboy Blue (@quietblueboy) reported

    damn dude. crazy that overwatch 2 still hasnt released AFTER 3 WEEKS. (i refuse to accept the game as released or play until my Widowmaker Noire skin issue is resolved)

  • trabadisima |`*⛓🦇ғʀᴀᴀᴀɴ🦇⛓*`| (@trabadisima) reported

    El Overwatch 2 fue un error.

  • AllenJamesF5 Allen James (@AllenJamesF5) reported

    @BlizzardCS still can’t login to Overwatch servers because of the LC-208 error. I have never been denied access to a game this long, and apparently this has been an issue for some for quite awhile. I have put at least $500 into this account over the years. I do t understand why-

  • yooimalex play xenoblade chronicles 1/2/3 (@yooimalex) reported

    @RogersBase don't worry about it Roger, I have a friend with this issue as well, but on a even worse condition considering he can't even play games like Overwatch or Apex Legends without his head exploding. Take care of yourself.

  • Nightmar3_real tHe BooGeYmaN (@Nightmar3_real) reported

    Any clues how to fix the error code on Overwatch 2. Code: (LC-208) ? I’m on Xbox. #Overwatch2

  • Sacred_Clown1 The Sacred One (@Sacred_Clown1) reported

    Is there anyone else having issues with the Overwatch event? I cant interact with map objectives, revive teammates, and i keep getting disconnected from the event modes. Please tell me im not the only one. Please fix this @PlayOverwatch

  • purpleperson274 Ian Curry (@purpleperson274) reported

    @BlizzardCS I’m having a problem on Switch where Overwatch 2 crashes during the entering game screen every-time I boot it up. Is this a known issue or potentially something on my end?

  • REALQrustum Firdi (@REALQrustum) reported

    @Natejesty @Stylosa The difference is free skins in league, no BP in a Game That does Not make sense? Overwatch BP Most retarded thing ever. Well we have 4 skins for you oh you do Not Play a Single champ well thats Not our Problem. In a Game where the Char has no impact its fine like fortnite or cod

  • SquireOfVL SquireOfTheSpookyTable (@SquireOfVL) reported

    @puppyegf Should put you on a leash and restrain you from Overwatch 2 until they fix their matchmaking

  • confusedpleeb • amber (@confusedpleeb) reported

    @bloowai And I come from apex where shits expensive like this but its the norm. The problem is, though, is that apex still has lootboxes for normal cosmetics. Overwatch expecting us to get what used to be free things with irl money is crazy

  • KillWilI72 Killiam William 72nd (@KillWilI72) reported

    I'll say it, Overwatch lootboxes weren't even bad. Other games like BF2 and Fifa ruined it for everyone. Now look, skins for events would've been free now you gotta pay $20 for a skin. I don't necessarily see a problem with paying for exclusive skins just to be clear.

  • RyanBraunschwe1 Ryan Braunschweig (@RyanBraunschwe1) reported

    You’d think blizzard would fix the overwatch servers so people could get on and buy the overpriced skins they added lol

  • KetarlR6 Ketarl 🇳🇴 (@KetarlR6) reported

    @SpoitR6 I absolutely agree with this. The issue is that it took Overwatch what 2-3 years from when they announced OW2 to when it was released, and honestly Idk if this game has that long unless they do something big ASAP

  • JustFinax 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏 ✨ (@JustFinax) reported

    @KokSenWai @CrZuf @Stylosa Well, then I was one of a few who didn’t say that bc I never saw a problem with loot boxes. It was a perfect way to earn all the stuff for free in Overwatch.

  • ChrisHs22 AshMamba22 (@ChrisHs22) reported

    I’m so mad I can’t play overwatch. Didn’t realize I misspelled my email address. Tried to fix it and made a bigger mess of it… now I have to wait and contact @Blizzard_Ent to see if they can help me out with my account

  • Pinkpicke20 💧Tailed Beast Nut⭐️ (@Pinkpicke20) reported

    all i wanted to ****** do was play overwatch after completing a weeks worth of homework and i cant even do that thanks to this bullshit error code bro im gonna lose it

  • anthony256 Anthony Garreffa ⭐⭐⭐ (@anthony256) reported

    @HardwareUnboxed RTX 4090 FE in my main rig on all day, 4-5 hours of gaming sometimes (Overwatch 2) without a single issue. COLORFUL iGame RTX 4090 Vulcan OC-V same thing, less gaming time, but it has been POUNDED and it's totally fine. CM PSU with extended power connectors, again no issues.

  • ShaunGarza11 SurvivorsByDaylight (@ShaunGarza11) reported

    @PlayOverwatch please fix the prices if your bundles/ skins! It should not be 20$ just for a skin!!!!! Way to much, this is what makes us overwatch players miss loot boxes

  • snovia_tea no (@snovia_tea) reported

    Overwatch 2 starting to look like Paladins fr. The problems in Overwatch 2 almost look like the problems in Paladins, oof. (not to mention the 5v5 and winston secondary fire)

  • 777enty6ix ... (@777enty6ix) reported

    Anyone else having problems unlocking golden guns? #Overwatch #Overwatch2

  • kevin_thusi A Saucy Peasant (@kevin_thusi) reported

    @ImMadnessTV Unlike Apex, playing Overwatch doesn't feel like a chore. It doesn't feel like you need to sweat in every single game mode that you're playing and I think that's the issue Apex has. There's no "casual play" in Apex anymore. Whether you're in ranked, pubs or an LTM

  • BackupSio Sio but I am bored (@BackupSio) reported

    @EeveeA My problem is that content creators act like this is an Overwatch only problem when literally every other free to play game has similar (or in some cases worse) systems that are completely overlooked and are the reason OW needed to move to this system to begin with.

  • LucidiaCQ Lucidia CQ (@LucidiaCQ) reported

    I'd understand if there was a financial problem but the fact that the second game is free? And they probably had to refund a bunch of people who paid for the first game, also I KNOW how expensive it is to make games and slick animations especially for games like Overwatch.

  • FOODICORN_ FOODICORN (@FOODICORN_) reported

    Overwatch be the only game where you can be killing the entire enemy team alone, carrying, but lose because someone else won't counterpick and you're the problem to someone.

  • foonerism foon (@foonerism) reported

    Overwatch made the original junkenstein modes so damn hard this year lol I used to be able to breeze through expert no problem just by playing cass or hanzo but now junk is one hsotting me the instant he spawns
