  I wonder if the team for Overwatch 2 are still in the office trying to fix this **** up if if they decided that after a long day of doing nothing, they’d go home, rest, and then they’ll fix it.

  Damn i would love to see the hype for overwatch but my phone broken and that **** is a requirement to be able to play. Not a email. A phone number.

  @PlayOverwatch @Blizzard_Ent Wtf I’ve been playing overwatch since beta and I’ve spent so much money on it and I can’t even play the sequel just because of my service provider? This is the ******* downfall of overwatch.

  @HeadofNights if this is on the issues with Overwatch 2, to be fair; it's free to play. That's what had me even considering it, till they turned me away with the phone number requirement and recording voice because they just don't have enough of my trust for me to be OK with that.

  @PlayOverwatch @Blizzard_Ent @AskPlayStation What's going on! I paid $43 for #Overwatch Watchpoint Pack to prepare and support #Overwatch2 and I'm seeing this non-sense I gotta pay again for something I already bought. How are y'all going to fix this error?

  Alexander Krizak (@AlexanderKrizak) reported 16 minutes ago

  @AdamHolisky I already did, because despite owning Overwatch 1, nothing is unlocked for me in #Overwatch2. No point in playing until that issue is fixed.

  The Eev (@EevieTrigger) reported 21 minutes ago

  @BlizzardCS I have owned the game since the first week, but logging into overwatch 2 my heroes are all locked. Is this a known error? and if possible, can my heroes be restored? I haven't been able to enter the game again due to server issues

  So there’s the thousand person queue issue with Overwatch 2 and there’s also a bug where Overwatch 1 players aren’t getting their characters or items properly, this launch is going well

  Ngl the way Overwatch 2 dropped with such bad server issues kinda dampened my excitement

• 
  Pathy (@pathy_TikTok) reported 33 minutes ago

  The overwatch 2 experience today was awful. No I never got in, the first time I got to 200 people left ahead of me in about 20 minutes and then got a log in error, then waited about 45 minutes, got in, and got disconnected as I was loading into a game

  Sake (@Sake_Ayaya) reported 37 minutes ago

  I've gotten over 4 matchmaking errors on overwatch 2. I'm done waiting in queue 😒

  Update pt 2 Now there is an error message and it won’t even let me get into Overwatch 2 bc of the amount of ppl trying to get into the game at the moment

  Levente Krisztián Büte (Chris) 🎃🧟👻 (@christianbute) reported 38 minutes ago

  @Qwik "DDoS" Just because the demand for Overwatch (1) flopped and you weren't prepared for a massive amount of players for the sequel, especially because it's f2p, I wouldn't call that DDoS.

  I just wanna play this overwatch 2 **** fix the servers HOS!!!

  Rhythm Deficient Drool Monkey (@RDDM) reported 46 minutes ago

  So, pretty safe to say that Overwatch 2 is ******* bunk. The one mode I wanted is not in the game, and it's a miracle if they'll let you connect. Every time I'm in queue to, you know, actually start playing, I get thrown to an error screen.

  I'm really curious on how Overwatch is gonna fix their servers, like how do you fix something like that #Overwatch2

• 
  Bobbi (@ArtFanatic89) reported 49 minutes ago

  All I wanna do is play Overwatch 2 but literally been stuck in an insane queue all day since launch. Every time I think it’s finally gonna load into the game, I get an error message. Makes me sad 💔😭

  @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS Anyone else having the problem that their friends after a dc cant invite because they "have an another version of Overwatch" ???

  @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS I was really looking forward to playing overwatch finally but this games launch was a absolute joke. I won't be bothering you even attempt this game until you fix this this ****

  Sorry but Overwatch should’ve never became free to play it should’ve just decreased price because if it was never free these server problems wouldn’t be happening😭
