Is anyone else having the issue in @PlayOverwatch that they can't group with their friends because "They are on a different version of Overwatch"? Or am I just cursed?

IMO, most of the things people have been crapping on Overwatch 2 for are non-issues generated by reactionaries for outrage, but even I gotta say that the pre-paid phones not being considered valid to play it really IS super ******. Hopefully that gets changed.

@Qwik are smurf accounts in Overwatch really such an issue that you had to lock people in poverty/under employeed/with poor credit out of your free to play game?

(@alicelovescode) reported
i have three accounts, which i paid for, because of transition. but i still only have one phone number so... it would also not have been as big an issue if you could just still play Overwatch 1. the game we paid for. the weird rollup of OW1 into OW2 is a big part of the issue.

@Veeeeeeeeeerto1 @lackingsaint A huge portion of Overwatch's playerbase in the last few years has been alt accounts. Troll accounts, boosted accounts, acc to practice specific char. That's why matchmaking was so messed up. They have never done anything to fix the issue. Why would they now ?

Is anyone else still having issues with Overwatch 2? I still can load in and its getting ridiculous

But as we had seen with Gundam Evolution, things like this happens. I remember when Overwatch had this issue for the betas awhile back. Given that this is now a free to play model, they should definitely increase the amount of servers, more than the average.

@KaigaYT That tag went from overwatch 2 to ddos real quick :/ man i wanta try the game though. I don't really care about peoples problems with a megacorp. I don't get why people think ddos attacks will solve the problems. It just screws over normal people who want some escapism.

(@trippinNut) reported
@TheActMan_YT What's even worse is as someone who played overwatch 1 none of my stuff transfered over and I was promised I'd have all the skins and heroes from overwatch 1 so here I am waiting for a patch to fix it as it's apparently a big issue, what a way to **** up a launch

Overwatch 2 has been out for nearly 24 hours and I've not been able to successfully login into the switch or PS4 version once. Are all online launches doomed to be terrible?

@XeroAvian Yeah, I was playing earlier but the game kicked me out so now I'm back to struggling to get back in the game. Apparently Overwatch's servers are being DDoS'd

Everyone’s all up on overwatch and here I am still getting errors. Like I haven’t gotten to get past putting my phone number before I got hit with like 50 errors.

@samjones411 @TheActMan_YT To be fair free2play games have a reason to be free and are mostly good like tf2. overwatch 2 doesn’t even have a reason to exist, much less be free which is the problem.

@BlizzardCS Every time I launch Overwatch, it prompts me with “The application encountered an unrecoverable error. Click ‘OK’ to create a memory dump, then please share it on our support site.” I have 0 clue what caused this is for I was able to play Overwatch 1 with ZERO PROBLEM

Sigh. I should give up on Overwatch today. I feel like dirt and the merging isn't working, but now I keep getting errors. It's not in the cards for me...

@SionTheGamer @impact_ttv @aaronkellerOW If it makes you feel any better, you aren't missing out. It's actually less enjoyable than OG Overwatch because it's the same game but with a wait and errors.

Honestly removing loot boxes and switching to the F2P model kinda ruined the Overwatch experience for me, for sure gameplay is the same but there was something in this cosmetics system that I really liked compared to all the other games, also new UI sucks @PlayOverwatch pls fix

My Overwatch 2 experience so far: bilzzard support ignored my ticket for 1 week about not getting the founder stuff despite having an origins disc copy. And 0 matches because blizzard still are hacks...erm I mean ddos attacks.

Overwatch 1 was fine for me tbh, better than the OW2 Connection error screen. They could’ve left both games up while they work on transferring the players correctly.
