  • cdchaneyy Boo-za (@cdchaneyy) reported

    Idk maybe its just me but if I'm consistently top elims as dps, healing as healer, and mitigated as tank... Maybe im not the common problem on my overwatch teams

  • JohnDav59259982 John Davis (@JohnDav59259982) reported

    @PhartGaming Obviously toxicity. I wouldn't say this is a problem in my favorite game. Which has been SC2 since it came out. Since it's not really that bad. However, this is a huge problem in Overwatch which I enjoy casually. Buy a game that looks really fun. T...

  • chaoticsturdy chaoticsturdy_ (@chaoticsturdy) reported

    If you spawn camp in overwatch 2 then you clearly need to either go back to call of duty or see a therapist to address your bad childhood because you obviously have issues #Overwatch2

  • Abscondough 🜏 (@Abscondough) reported

    we all know blizzard has a problem with employees just endless problems union laws and union employees can fix so overwatch is also a very quick game anyone can play for a few hours right after their hourly wage job so lets say i have a reason to be doing this

  • personawhat WhatAPerson (@personawhat) reported

    i'd love to be in an overwatch va video... only problem is i don't know how to find and join one :(

  • RuneVALO Ruben (@RuneVALO) reported

    @Surefour In League you have a direct overview what your team is doing, you see what they see. In Overwatch you can only see stats which won’t always give away what your team is doing. I feel like adding a mini-map with your teammates on it could fix this partially

  • midder64 midder ⚔ (@midder64) reported

    @MacieJay Its already good game, so there is no need to make Siege 2, same with Overwatch. Sadly I found this game extremely toxic, even more than CS:GO, and way more than Overwatch 2. And that's something you can't fix with "new" title.

  • Its_Jafy it's Jafy! (@Its_Jafy) reported

    Overwatch fix your ******* server I don't want to get dc when im in my comp games

  • sandlionman Will Searight (@sandlionman) reported

  • Turned_up_94 Charm_city_killerTV (@Turned_up_94) reported from Baltimore, Maryland

    Overwatch need to fix there ******* servers I just got kicked from a vomp match talking about network error and I'm just like how I'm hard wired in fix yall **** man it's annoying as hell @Blizzard_Ent

  • Chubby1G Jayden (@Chubby1G) reported

    Anyone else’s PC crash while playing Overwatch 2?

  • Whylamar20x “Yeah metro boomin make it boom” (@Whylamar20x) reported

    Overwatch is so bad that it’s good. I enjoy it so much but the game itself is absolutely broken

  • aquinonv nathalie (@aquinonv) reported

    quit whining about overwatch players being broken, you’re all just ****** players trying to blame blizzard for you losing

  • RakshasaRaja StrongMonkey2000 (@RakshasaRaja) reported

    @magnidezmond I blame overwatch for most of my mental problems (rest is from league)

  • KxngBeast13 Quise (@KxngBeast13) reported

    @BlizzardCS I'm banned a whole season on overwatch 2 because of your guys servers. Fix that. Ppl got bomb internet. Then yall ban the people like it's they fought they getting kicked out

  • guscp10 gussyKB (@guscp10) reported

    @BlizzardCS Hey support I have had several problems with my overwatch account, the first is my log of hours and statistics are bugged, it does not show them as they should and the second is about the competitive one, there are already 4 times that it leaves me in gold.

  • aalduhr aldu (@aalduhr) reported

    @vxunderground thats why overwatch was lagging yesterday :/

  • Saint_Pootis Aardvark (@Saint_Pootis) reported

    Nothing kills the mood like phasing through people with the one hero who really shouldn't, but at this point I'm convinced Overwatch has the net code of 1hz, death with shield up, but kill cam shows I never put it up, immortality orbs and lamp not working etc etc

  • Pettybossz Pettyboss (@Pettybossz) reported

    My frames immediately drop in overwatch from 240 to 180 when turning on my dual pc, so much frame lag that streaming from a single pc over dual would give me better in-game performance while live... Are there any dual pc geeks that can show me what's wrong with my setup

  • biggayboobs94 astra is neat (@biggayboobs94) reported

    @DoomerDD in overwatch it doesnt but in apex it can feel like it sometimes. its ******* stupid and especially with old valkyrie invalidating the downsides of controller making HALF YOUR PC ESPORTS SCENE SWAP TO IT then maybe there is a problem

  • BrenRautenbach BrenQ_Bunny (@BrenRautenbach) reported

    We struggled a lot with our internet yesterday! So stream was only about an hour long. The lag was unreal and it just isn't fair for you guys to watch a stream like that! We haven't encountered any problems today so I'm hopeful tonight will be better! Overwatch again? 🤩😎

  • mercurytango playdough cookie🌈™🚷♍ (@mercurytango) reported

    I have to click through 5 error messages but I do get to play the new overwatch

  • Zeaig Zeaig - パンダ (@Zeaig) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ I mean, hypothetically couldn’t almost any of the existing heroes already be Jewish? That said, I don’t really see them bringing religion into the mix on overwatch, it’s just asking for trouble.

  • STARSCREAMER142 ☆ STÄR ☆ (@STARSCREAMER142) reported

    @PlayOverwatch There’s a bug I’ve experienced only on Overwatch where my controller will randomly start to lack any input and start “drifting”. Where as my actual controller is not. I purchased a new headset and controller because I thought it was a mechanical issue. Plz fix.

  • aquinonv nathalie (@aquinonv) reported

    quit whining about overwatch characters being broken, you’re all just ****** players trying to blame blizzard for you losing

  • brandooonyeah Brandon cook (@brandooonyeah) reported

    @GMPEREIRA_ @SilentHill You're right, that's definitely the same as Elder Scrolls, Starfield, Fallout, Doom, Dishonored, Wolfenstein, Call of Duty, Crash Bandicoot, Diablo, World of Warcraft(if they go console), Overwatch, Spyro.. Definitely the same scale of games there for sure 🤦

  • okayymike Missionary Mike (@okayymike) reported

    @BlizzardCS Still cannot play overwatch, the login bug is still going strong even though it was "fixed". Submitted a ticket two weeks ago, no response.

  • OtakuLuke33 luke roberts (@OtakuLuke33) reported

    @PlayStation @ATVI_AB @Blizzard_Ent Overwatch 2 became free to play across all gaming platforms from the 4th of october. then why have Playstation charged me £34.99 for Overwatch 2 on the 5th of October and have now suspended my playstation account and will not resolve the issue.

  • TheCorruptness Corruptness (@TheCorruptness) reported

    @Meenuhhh_ I dunno, Overwatch just isn't appealing to me, goofy as characters, not a good time if you're solo Q, and it seems from the trending tweets that they have major balance issues...
