@SScarletSlayer //It's not even account banning but literally them trying to fix it to where PC players have their issues fixed and not really giving 2 shits about console players. Literally NOTHING WAS BROKE in Overwatch 1 but they CHANGED EVERYTHING and... Screwed it up

//Man, today was kinda a disappointing day since a friend of mine couldn't get in Overwatch 2. Wasn't able to merge his account even though he's an existing player and since he has a pre-paid number it doesn't work for him. Hopefully they fix these issues.

@BlizzardCS - “Error LC-208 is a known issue” Fans - “What is that? Why can’t I play Overwatch 2?” Blizzard - “It’s a known issue” Fans - “It’s been almost 24 hours. When will it be fixed?” Blizzard - “It’s known”

@Romantica_Baby_ I would join you. Problem is that I haven't pushed myself to get involved in competition in a lot of games like Overwatch, League of Legends, and Five Nights at Freddy's. There has to be more drive to get me to join in 1 of the games.

(@BiekerJosh) reported
Was going to consider playing Overwatch 2 seeing as though the game is supposedly free??? But because they are using a scummy microtransaction system and the fact that they wanted to originally have users if their game login via cell phone? I doubt I’ll be doing so anytime soon.

@OWAnonymous_ I feel like people do have a reason to complain...but Overwatch 2 sort of IS barebones for a sequel. But as far as the game is itself - yeah. It's fine. It's just a skill issue.

Overwatch 1 ran perfect with the settings I had, fancy lighting shouldn't be making it lag this much. Everything besides Graphics Quality was on Low.

@Lemonyferret Idk to me it seems to be more like a overwatch 1.5 more then a 2. Like there are some improvements but like still some issues with it that should be gone. Plus there whole voice chat thing Is insane. Still looks a small bit interesting.

@BlizzardCS Any update on the LC-208 game server error would be great. Is this just console? Is there an eta on a fix? Anything? #ow2 #Overwatch #Overwatch2

Overwatch 2 has been a totally botched release. Non-stop server issues and bugs since launch, and now a ton of players are probably locked out of the game for the weekend. How does the largest gaming company drop the ball this bad on a glorified patch??
