I will maybe play Gundam Evolution when the full release is out but that game needs more work for real. Maps already suffer from the Overwatch choke point problem maybe even more than that game. Numbers need to be tweaked a lot Gunplay needs a lot of fine tuning.

@RiotSupport I did reinstall both Valorant and League of Legends and they both crash. For comparison sake I played Naraka Bladepoint/ PUBG and Overwatch and they never crashed idk why

OW2 is gonna be bad cause blizzard doesn’t believe in player feedback proper play testing and would rather rebuild the game from the ground up then actually fix their **** #Overwatch2 #Overwatch

@Lukash369 @PaladinsGame 🧢 Obviously it's not a high enough priority for them, despite it scares enough customers away. Not many big game developers don't put issues like this on top 1 priority. If it was a bug free game, I could easily see this having a proper competitive scene on par with Overwatch

@sleepysyrupp it really feels like this, overwatch community has issues believe me but valorant is on a whole nother level really sorry you have to see this **** on ur timeline today

@Paz__ow Will Overwatch 2 fix my marriage? Will Flex Supports suffer in OW2 given that there is no peel? What are your thoughts on a rank reset in OW2? What is your genuine take on 5v5, no copium allowed. Will Blizzard actually be more communicative? Will my game be better than OW2?

@OWAnonymous_ This game is literally built to be live-service, with new balance patches, characters, maps, etc., this game needs content to actually go on. It’s clear from everyone wanting to see more from Overwatch that content is required.

Gundam Evolution Playtest thoughts: It's just Overwatch, but faster, and done worse, with a Gundam skin Map design, gunplay, ability design, game balance, and visual clarity are all worse than Overwatch It's possible they still fix all that, and I hope they do, but we'll see

@Parappa_GANG Biggest difference tbh is that smash community actively delt with the problem. Like yeah, that **** isn't a good look but we carved it out like the rot it was Overwatch community had WAY more evidence against Sinatra and huge parts of it and Valorant will defend him to thr death

Only got a handful more games in because of the net outage, but I gotta say despite basically being fast Overwatch with a giant robot skin I did really enjoy Gundam Evolution. Looking forward to launch, whenever that is.

@VvisionsStudio @Blizzard_Ent Can you just not? Nobody wants to sacrifice Tony Hawk Pro Skater or Crash Bandicoot for Overwatch 2. Blizzard has lost so much good will.

People that can switch more than three games in one day genuinely scare me. What do you mean you know the exact control scheme to Elden Ring, Overwatch, Fallout NV, CSGO, Star Wars Skywalker Saga and Halo Infinite WITH ZERO ISSUE?????????? 💀

@L3vski @Parappa_GANG Kids shouldnt go to events unsupervised anyways. At the very least they should have a friend or relative go with them. I played overwatch for 2 years the community is 65% cesspool. The biggest problem with toxicity stems from the anonymity that the internet supplies.

Played Overwatch for a very briefly period yesterday, and became entangled in a ******* Polycule consisting of Ashe, Pharah, Echo, Zarya, and Mercy. I was Mercy, the service top.

@Froskurinn Orgs don't have this issue because if Riot puts their foot down no Org will sign him so what is the correct play? Does Riot just ban him for life and thaat's it? Does Blizzard follow up as well so he can't play overwatch? What's the move here?

@ObiWanNICKobi @GeauxPlayES Seems likely. Not a lot of publishers wanna take the reigns like the overwatch leagues do. Many don’t see the inclusion in esports and that’s just from talking with them. I think more could be done if we all found a way to work together on these issues.

@mittalunae Overwatch had a similar problem when I was playing. As soon as it looked like one team was losing, people would start dropping from that team.
