@Blizzard_Ent @OverwatchES Guys... what the heck?? This is beyond okay. The reputation of this game is going to get ruined with the constant arising of issues on this scale. Delayed release/launch, DDOS on the day of, and now half, if not more, for most people's roster missing.

@PlayOverwatch imagine still having an awfull game where the tanks are still annoying and the main problem just like before. Why not just get rid of heal and tank classes and just give them all 200hp if everyones a DPS at this point? It's actually worse than overwatch 1. congrats

Have tried pretty hard to get back into Overwatch with OW2, but it’s damn hard to when it’s impossible to play and @PlayOverwatch don’t respond to a support ticket. Had fun with what little I got to play but outstanding issues have kept me from being able to go back.

@MonricOW It’s not a sequel but that’s not really a problem it’s just silly, the servers Idek if that’s blizzards fault so not really a problem for overwatch imo, hero changes/5v5 are literally a W, only thing left is BP which is :/ but a necessary evil nowadays fr🤝game is still dogshit

@BlizzardCS The forums are rampant with issues related to Overwatch 2 and purchases with coins not going through, currency lost, and locked heroes. I understand things have been buggy, and maintenance has been constant, but please address this or an update or statement. :(
