@OWAnonymous_ Bruh on PC you gotta buy a new copy of OW to smurf you think they’ll care spending like 10$ over the 10-30$ game price? Overwatch will most likely be cross play very soon so this ain’t one systems problem it’s everyone’s.

Idk who needs to hear this but overwatch 2 being 5v5 won't fix queue times like at all. Tank queue times will still be faster than dps queue times & not alot of people are willing to be the only tank on the team. Plus it would make playing tank even more toxic.

@MeanMochaLatte There’s also a glitch where guard can still happen when an ally walks away from the player when overwatch triggers by a musketeer, but only for a moment

@OWAnonymous_ I see alot of comments complaining that @/PlayOverwatch "wont do anything" about the mkn issue on console. The truth is they can't. Blizzard/Overwatch discourages the use of mnk, but since the software is supported by PS&Xbox they can't do anything

Asked my partner their thoughts on #Overwatch , as they aren't as into it as me. They say "The idea, characters and world is interesting but Hammond and Winston ruin it. They undermine any serious tones, beats or issues raised in the story. They are like bad eps of a good show."

You know it's going to be a good day when you rip on some random about video game heroes that are "broken" yet are easily countered. Overwatch ain't a hard game, just get good.

@harbleuOW I used this service and went from iron rank in Valorant to top 500 in Overwatch.

It's not nearly as bad as Overwatch and TBH not even the observers' fault, but pro Valorant has some really spectator issues around site rushes. Especially when a bunch of ultimates come out. There's so much movement.

Honestly, I didn't have any ping-related problems with Overwatch until I got back home, in which case 100ms hits different compared to 44ms min/54ms max (to Chicago/ORD). Valorant is almost the same, but with half the latency (to Miami).

Seems I'm still having overheating issues, particularly when I'm running something heavy like Overwatch. I need to find a better CPU fan, but part of me just wants to overhaul this whole rig altogether.

So anyone experiencing extensive lag on #Overwatch for #NintendoSwitch ? Like, there's horrible FPS drops and now this? Fix it, Jesus. @PlayOverwatch

After seeing some of the replies, I'm starting to think this is a Console Overwatch issue, not so much a PC issue.

Genuienly considering quitting the game. This meta is so ******* unenjoyable and the devs have their heads up their ******* asses. @PlayOverwatch Fix the ******* game. I want to play overwatch, but I want to have fun. And I ******* can't right now.

@bkbriggs324 BTW Overwatch 2 is gonna change a lot of stuff so who knows if they will fix the game by only letting you play 1 tank. I think? it's a step in the right direction.

it would be really cool to play and obsess over Overwatch but the problem is you can't get a game within 5 minutes, it takes 14

@ian_c22 Ok, first of all this isn’t a real problem. You’ve created this rule set in your head—there are no rules in Overwatch to directly follow. There objectives, not rules. Secondly, have you tried not being bad at the game? Sometimes that helps!

@WestBrook___ @Heliotid3 @OWAnonymous_ tbh I think pick bans will always just be a bandaid fix for the more broad, deeply rooted balance issues in the game. sure it might work sometimes for 1 tricks and other stuff but like... it seems like a cheap answer to only a few of the countless issues overwatch has.

I see the Valorant subreddit suffers from the same issue as Overwatch. I wanted to see if any clips or excitement from the event made it off the @VALORANTComp reddit. Nope. JohnySilvers 3K front page.

@javalb_ Gameplay is a bit like overwatch, it's lagging sometimes but overall it's good for the prize

@Liefx @DudeWithNose_RL @SpacemanSR VALORANT is like session jazz compared to Overwatch's visual noise. Can't tell you that you should like it, but VALORANT will not have the same problems as OW.
