@OrdinaryGamers My problem with SBMM is that in practice it doesn't work that well, I both stomp and get stomped more often in games that have SBMM (Overwatch, R6S) compared to games like CS:Source or Team Fortress 2 community servers that have no SBMM and instead a server browser.

@drifterxexe @Shalquoir_ @FroggerOW The problem is whales pay for it. Every knife in Val is over 35 and some reach 55. Every skin worth buying is 20-25. These prices will be permanent because people are willing to pay, the same is true in Overwatch unless their sales absolutely tank which I don't see happening.

@blizzard has to urgently fix the overwatch 2 competitive pairing, it's ridiculous and frustrating for the player who gives the blood in a match and plays since 1 fall with the newbie crowd that is still getting the idea of the game and rising from link. #Overwatch2

@BlizzardCS still can’t login to Overwatch servers because of the LC-208 error. I have never been denied access to a game this long, and apparently this has been an issue for some for quite awhile. I have put at least $500 into this account over the years. I do t understand why-

@RogersBase don't worry about it Roger, I have a friend with this issue as well, but on a even worse condition considering he can't even play games like Overwatch or Apex Legends without his head exploding. Take care of yourself.

@BlizzardCS I’m having a problem on Switch where Overwatch 2 crashes during the entering game screen every-time I boot it up. Is this a known issue or potentially something on my end?

@Natejesty @Stylosa The difference is free skins in league, no BP in a Game That does Not make sense? Overwatch BP Most retarded thing ever.

@bloowai And I come from apex where shits expensive like this but its the norm. The problem is, though, is that apex still has lootboxes for normal cosmetics. Overwatch expecting us to get what used to be free things with irl money is crazy

(@KillWilI72) reported
I'll say it, Overwatch lootboxes weren't even bad. Other games like BF2 and Fifa ruined it for everyone. Now look, skins for events would've been free now you gotta pay $20 for a skin. I don't necessarily see a problem with paying for exclusive skins just to be clear.

You’d think blizzard would fix the overwatch servers so people could get on and buy the overpriced skins they added lol

Ketarl 🇳🇴
(@KetarlR6) reported
@SpoitR6 I absolutely agree with this. The issue is that it took Overwatch what 2-3 years from when they announced OW2 to when it was released, and honestly Idk if this game has that long unless they do something big ASAP

@KokSenWai @CrZuf @Stylosa Well, then I was one of a few who didn’t say that bc I never saw a problem with loot boxes. It was a perfect way to earn all the stuff for free in Overwatch.

@HardwareUnboxed RTX 4090 FE in my main rig on all day, 4-5 hours of gaming sometimes (Overwatch 2) without a single issue. COLORFUL iGame RTX 4090 Vulcan OC-V same thing, less gaming time, but it has been POUNDED and it's totally fine. CM PSU with extended power connectors, again no issues.

@PlayOverwatch please fix the prices if your bundles/ skins! It should not be 20$ just for a skin!!!!! Way to much, this is what makes us overwatch players miss loot boxes

@ImMadnessTV Unlike Apex, playing Overwatch doesn't feel like a chore. It doesn't feel like you need to sweat in every single game mode that you're playing and I think that's the issue Apex has. There's no "casual play" in Apex anymore. Whether you're in ranked, pubs or an LTM

Sio but I am bored
(@BackupSio) reported
@EeveeA My problem is that content creators act like this is an Overwatch only problem when literally every other free to play game has similar (or in some cases worse) systems that are completely overlooked and are the reason OW needed to move to this system to begin with.

(@LucidiaCQ) reported
I'd understand if there was a financial problem but the fact that the second game is free? And they probably had to refund a bunch of people who paid for the first game, also I KNOW how expensive it is to make games and slick animations especially for games like Overwatch.

Overwatch be the only game where you can be killing the entire enemy team alone, carrying, but lose because someone else won't counterpick and you're the problem to someone.
