    @PlayOverwatch Man I didn't know this whole time I was getting killed by widow I thought my monitor had an issue so I bought a whole new monitor and that didn't fix it so I bought a whole new console... That didn't fix it so I thought my game was broken and gave up on overwatch 💔💔💔💔

  • matthewjpeg matthew (@matthewjpeg) reported

    I’m trying to load onto overwatch on my playstation and i keep getting an error stating something went wrong ‘NP-104602-3’ is anyone else having this issue?? #Overwatch2

  • superbondez superbondez (@superbondez) reported

    People who think that - out of all the major problems in the game - mercy is the biggest problem and changing her will fix overwatch, are the real reason the game fundamentally sucks

  • KarateSkool Karate Skool (@KarateSkool) reported

    MFs really be giving up on overwatch ranked man. First sign of trouble and in the chat like “my wife made me play support so she could play DPS. I’m sorry I can’t do this” man WHAT lmfaooooo.

  • matchavision Matcha Latte 🍵 (@matchavision) reported

    At least I’m good at talking to customer service than any Overwatch player.

  • iLunatikLunatik HVND iLunatik (@iLunatikLunatik) reported

    apex is broken. Playing overwatch now. lmfao

  • N7_ShepardCmndr ⌓‿⌓ (@N7_ShepardCmndr) reported

    @jchordrs @PlayStation I was on overwatch as well, knew something was wrong when people were getting kicked from the game then the party issue. It’s always the time where people all have a day off together 😭

  • FGC_Lucian FGC Lucian (@FGC_Lucian) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ As far as I know . The main issues with overwatch 1 was double shield . OW2 seems to have a host of brand new issues that devs can’t seem to solve and if I’m being honest ow2 doesn’t feel as interesting to play . It’s actually boring imo .

  • korokcore rory ⁷ (@korokcore) reported

    is anyone else’s overwatch 2 broken

  • Grasshoper_30 Dom (@Grasshoper_30) reported

    Is anyone else having trouble playing Overwatch 2 on there PlayStation I keep getting error code NP-32470-6 and I reset my PS4 and it keeps popping up I’m not sure if it’s just me or if there’s something wrong with the game #Overwatch2

  • baizhu_main_jas jas 🌱 (@baizhu_main_jas) reported

    Are overwatch servers down or is my connection just ****… literally every other game is working :’)

  • RonnyCestari Ronnyc22 (@RonnyCestari) reported

    Overwatch ranking system is broken

  • canwestillhang 🦇jess (@canwestillhang) reported

    The dps and tank players of overwatch also love to whine and cry that mercy is unkillable and want her nerfed to hell whenever it’s just a skill issue. You can’t kill a mercy because you suck lmao. That’s all there is to it.

  • Lord_Clawskrull ❄️ Thorne ❄️ (@Lord_Clawskrull) reported

    These Overwatch Events are some absolute gator grease 😵 You've been waiting years for the sequal????? Well guess what we got a fat load of nothing for events, slow/same balance problems, a changed rank system to project people with the brain capacity of dust mites...jeez

  • fakejustin4real J113 (@fakejustin4real) reported

    @AskPlayStation np-104602-3 restarted console. Changed Wi-Fi band. Safe mode rebuild. What is this error. I was just on overwatch 2 literally 4 hours ago. The console says I’m connected to internet it did the speed test and I’m getting what I pay for so what’s going on.

  • junkerwrld HANNIE 🧁 (@junkerwrld) reported

    i miss overwatch and apex so much but my ps4 is still not working 🥲

  • Panikk21 Panikk (@Panikk21) reported

    @n3rdy_overwatch @OWAnonymous_ I keep thinking of how many different headlines where I see that spending your time outside of overwatch can equate to more tokens than actually playing overwatch. That's a problem.

  • SeiriusVEVO Seirius (@SeiriusVEVO) reported

    @CrossByJustice Cod is just not a fun game imo, neither is rocket league, D2 is great but all live service battle pass **** sucks so much and really takes me out of it with the insanely expensive DLC, overwatch has been ruined with the release of 2, apex has flaws but it can be lots of fun

  • Wispyrr Wispyrr (@Wispyrr) reported

    Gonna be going live sooner, only problem is i dont know which game i am feeling more of right now....overwatch or valorant

  • canwestillhang 🦇jess (@canwestillhang) reported

    DPS and tank players of overwatch y’all need to get good or something. The way some of y’all play is absolutely abysmal and then you go in the chat and act toxic towards everyone else whenever you’re the problem. Watch some videos about your character and stop ******* sucking.

  • vioIentporno Polly (@vioIentporno) reported

    @aliengirl782 The joke here is there is a mod for The Sims 3 called Overwatch that basically acts as a moderating/clean up tool to correct errors such as game corruption. Having this mod reduces lag significantly and helps the game run smoother

  • PugCrumbs ¡Pug! (@PugCrumbs) reported

    Overwatch randos gotta know that I am switching to Pharah to counter Widow because I am a better Pharah than that guy is Widow. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ If I get diff'd, I get diff'd. Switching off what is arguably my strongest character is not going to fix the skill gap. Sorry.

  • Mrk_ur_Path Algorithm Sailor (@Mrk_ur_Path) reported

    @EskayOW I'm playing gundam evolution, Takes all of overwatch problems and gives it a patch... Minus the non-crossplay

  • aust1nday Austin Day (@aust1nday) reported

    @Lomzz087 Yeah the ping is horrible not really playable unfortunately. Overwatch 2 I have no issues though

  • ravensteele17 Ravensteele17 (@ravensteele17) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent I know you don’t care about overwatch 2 because you created its own toxic environment. The matchmaking sucks, you place new players with people who have hundreds of hours in the original overwatch and then we get in trouble for yelling at new players.

  • _mattenriquez matt (@_mattenriquez) reported

    Overwatch comp matchmaking is so ******* **** bro why am I playing against the same ******* 4 game in a row @Blizzard_Ent fix your **** game

  • Coolange_ Ryan (@Coolange_) reported

    @Aggyslap Wtf lemme find out Apex added proximity chat. They gotta fix that **** game. I worked my *** of to be #37 ranked Seer on PC NA just to have borderline quit the game cause Apex devs barely give a damn. Overwatch 2 does a better job of keeping the game fresh and cheater free

  • barkifyy seth (@barkifyy) reported

    @lilafanreal literally this wasn’t a problem in overwatch one even if her movement was different, she had the exact same principles??

  • pshunter36 Drew Allan (@pshunter36) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN Who do I contact for an unban on overwatch comp I got disconnected due to a power outage in my area in california and I got banned for the rest of the season cause of it

  • InkandMoxie Kristen Maloney (@InkandMoxie) reported

    @Landsharksyo My problem is I come home from work frustrated and in pain and can't get my mind to center on something for too long. I told myself I was gonna boot up Overwatch 2-3 hours ago and still haven't. But I also hurt a ton right now.
