  • CherubGuts Cherub (@CherubGuts) reported

    Overwatch servers have disconnected me a bazillion times this season fix your game blizzard 🤨

  • TheExcelllence The Excelllence 🎧🎹🎞 (@TheExcelllence) reported

    Failure, receptiveness, and expectation are my problems. Overwatch tilts me because I would miss a shot I should have hit. Being Stuck on this Melodics lesson has tilted me the same, the lesson isn't hard, I just keep messing up and I don't know why and, now I'm on tilt.

  • MudkipRed RedMudkip (@MudkipRed) reported

    Why does no game like me?? Overwatch hates me and so does Modern Warefare. The graphics for MW were dog ****, the buildings were blobs and the trees were just alpha cards. Now I have to figure out my problems with overwatch.

  • RetrogradeMikey Retrograde Mikey (@RetrogradeMikey) reported

    @daveofwar That was my problem with Overwatch. Loved the game but I always felt so unfulfilled after playing it for a long time

  • D3Vlicious D3v 🇵🇭 (@D3Vlicious) reported

    @ChefRaptor The problem is too many people are still stuck to the sprite aesthetic. Meanwhile, the 3D toon aesthetic has been pretty much accepted anywhere else, even in other video games (Overwatch, LOL, Valorant, etc.).

  • NolanCoronaV NolanCoronaV (@NolanCoronaV) reported

    @m2ro_ It just feels like the devs are afk or something, there is so many ways to fix it, at this point one single person could handle the whole game on his own (thats the amount of effort the whole overwatch team seemed to have put on their game)

  • ItsAquaPpl 🌺Aqua🌸 (@ItsAquaPpl) reported

    @_ConorMcDonald_ @YourOverwatchYT I don't play apex like that. But how overwatch is in ranked translates to all games. Cod apex lol smite siege etc. It doesn't matter. The true problem really comes with people thinking they aren't doing anything wrong. And can't accept they have to work up to a better play level

  • whyAshes Ashes (@whyAshes) reported

    @GregoFPS New accounts have always been favored over old accounts for some reason. It has to do with the way ranked is structured. Overwatch, R6 even CS and a bunch of other games with ranked Qs have the same issues.

  • HSM_judgejudy Kaitlin McAnany (@HSM_judgejudy) reported

    @PlayApex What about all the feedback about the sbmm. It's really bad and is ruining the experience for so many players. Your game is going to die soon like overwatch if you can't fix this soon

  • bleyjo Bleyjo (@bleyjo) reported

    @JWantedL Some people forget Roadhog hooking through four different dimensions before latching onto you. "Vanilla" Overwatch was broken, all the enemy had to do was pick Bastion and they win.

  • Mattyescc ً (@Mattyescc) reported

    @Banted__ Have I finally broken out of overwatch?

  • TheGraviticFlux The Gravitic Flux (@TheGraviticFlux) reported

    @SamitoFPS I feel like the only way they could fix her, is to completely and fundamentally rework her from the ground up. Overhaul her with a new kit, new attacks, new abilities etc. If we are lucky they may have this done and ready for Overwatch 2 which may not come out for several years..

  • leonardocrta Leonardo (@leonardocrta) reported

    @PlayVALORANT when I'm streaming and I'm tapping out of the window the game freezes for OBS. Could you "fix" this? I mean Overwatch for example does not freeze in background mode.

  • NotAnUnderling 💚LindaIsHere.chr💚 (@NotAnUnderling) reported

    @sadbells Literally me in Overwatch. I could be leading the team, the only one calling out, have highest killstreak, and still feel worthless when I die. Doesn't help that the only people who seem to play it anymore have extreme anger issues and have genuine tantrums if you die.--

  • odcz_ OD (@odcz_) reported

    @itsjazys Hoping for an apex fix within the week.. and at least the devs acknowledging it... OH have you played overwatch?

  • appleciderwitch the traveler's blair waldorf (@appleciderwitch) reported

    It's not the mouse, it's Overwatch. Some interaction between the custom keybind I have on my Logitech G600 and using Shift makes the game think I'm perma-crouching even when I am not hitting my crouch button. Does anyone else have this issue?

  • ItsWarIock Warlock (@ItsWarIock) reported

    I'm raging RN BC no matter what I do such as reinstalling, cleaning ram and old files #Overwatch will not stop lagging and freezing, no other games do this and I have a dam RTX2060 and I have a LAN cable in at 1GB!!! I just wanna run around like a crackhead on Lucio.

  • VividChim Kane Hocking (@VividChim) reported

    @Atreyeu_ Maybe yeah. Was weird when I found out about it. Just found some Overwatch emotes that you got from watching games and I was so confused. Changed my login and enabled 2FA straight away though. Have it on everything now.

  • ZeusIll boosted (@ZeusIll) reported

    @Trash_Fist @SamitoFPS Overwatch healers r the worst and cry all the time look at all season every meta begins with shitty support hero being broken and orisa

  • plutokittyy 🌹 (@plutokittyy) reported

    Streaming tonight for sure but has anyone been having problems with the overwatch servers I keep getting disconnected

  • Eidelweiss Barry Lee (이권문) 🎴 (@Eidelweiss) reported

    @Cleevsy Overwatch had the same problem when they introduced stuns and they had to roll back on it after stubbornly trying to keep it in the game for a year

  • 2Spookyish Sara (@2Spookyish) reported

    I’m begging for some luck to come my way I’m so tired of playing overwatch at 35fps on a broken laptop

  • itsjustdoe doe (@itsjustdoe) reported

    every comic or short was like "somethings coming wow okay we need to prepare for this. okay we're preparing for This. okay overwatch is back. or is it? also this omnic is having issues... maybe omnics not bad? we dont know where we're going with this either"

  • CrashMartini crashmartini @ Hunker in the Bunker (@CrashMartini) reported

    My father still has yet to grasp the 'turn it off and on again' method of resolving tech issues and also My dad: Internet's broken Me, mid Overwatch game on my XBox: No it isn't Dad: Yes it is

  • MidasTouchLIOS Midas (@MidasTouchLIOS) reported

    @RyotwariZ Tell me this wasn't a great list though Only huge problem I saw was TLOU2 at #2 and idk if Overwatch deserved to be there but other than that it was great

  • jackas8888 Jesse yaoyorozu (yandere event) (@jackas8888) reported

    @TheThiccVerse (Its a new fleshlight and dlido with a note saying hope this dont cause to much trouble in overwatch)

  • James42346695 Overwatch.Rehinhart.Let me be your shield (@James42346695) reported

    Lost 12 games in a row tonight due to throwers blizzard please fix overwatch for god sake. Why do you allow so many throwers.

  • oxtonbot lena (@oxtonbot) reported

    Overwatch-players really had an issue with his husband's coat.

  • RetroSlayed 𝕂atie Young - Astrologer (@RetroSlayed) reported

    I consider playing as a tank on Overwatch a community service

  • snailantix SM 🐌💕🐝 (@snailantix) reported

    When I get back to playing overwatch again (which may be never becos of WiFi issues lmao) I’m gonna see how things are casually and MAYBE get a new account to start over and actually play comp. I’ve never played comp in my life with ow becos I’m scared but who knows
