  • MateulkaK Mateulka Knedelek (@MateulkaK) reported

    @BenjiSales That's just lies, Overwatch had way more players lol. I still think OW2 might surpass it SOMEDAY but they have to make a good monetization system and fix this bugged af game.

  • SDRtalks SDR talks is in temtem arc but still bi 💜 (@SDRtalks) reported

    Rip to overwatch 2 competitive balancing won't happen until every seasons there are broken *** heroes and weak *** heroes holy **** data isn't the way to go for any game

  • SadSubz SadSubz | CSM HYPE (@SadSubz) reported

    When your getting pissed at Overwatch because you haven’t been healed once when playing a tank class, and then you get an achievement mid-game and it causes you to disconnect from the server…

  • grk__official grk__ (@grk__official) reported

    Man, I love Overwatch 2, but Blizzard, please fix this game. Almost every time I leave the game is because it freezes, with no option to quit it, till you log off on Windows. It happens to many people, as I saw. Hope it gets fixed soon. @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS

  • Fredroc42 Fred Powell (@Fredroc42) reported

    @pcgamer My problem with overwatch was the toxicity of the player base. You couldn't play comp without someone (or more) on your team or the opposite team being toxic. The first year or two the game was great then it all went to ... I also can't excuse Activision/Blizzard.

  • aaronshack64TV AaronShack64TV🔴LIVE (@aaronshack64TV) reported

    I'm getting some sort of bug on PC where Overwatch 2 just won't launch at all. I've repaired game files (none to fix), drivers are updated, everything is updated. The game just tries to launch, then the launcher shows up again and I can try to launch the game again... Sigh.

  • HelpLifeAIert HelpLifeAlert💋 (@HelpLifeAIert) reported

    @WhoizRodney I don't know if this applies to you or not Chevy, but Overwatch is having an issue with dropping people to Bronze for no reason. They said they were going to boost competitive points to make up for it, which sounds like a stupid resolution.

  • blasphemous___ Peter Pettigrew (@blasphemous___) reported

    @EskayOW The problem is that Blizzard nerfs or buffs characters based on what god like things a minority in the community can do with them. Doomfist as an example completely reworked. The majority of Overwatch players are casuals and can’t do what folks like you can. It’s unfair to them.

  • chri_hin Christian (@chri_hin) reported

    Can I appeal my Overwatch competitive ban since the terrible servers lagged me out? I was lagged out because of error code “LC 208” @BlizzardCS

  • oscarsasss spoopy peach⚡️👻 (@oscarsasss) reported

    It is absolutely absurd to me that overwatch 2 has been out nearly two weeks and there’s still the issue of getting booted out when you get an achievement on Xbox. About to get 7 wins straight in my placements for open queue and got booted. Throw this game off a cliff. 🫠

  • OkonoPancake 🔞🥞𝐎𝐤𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐲𝐚𝐤𝐢 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧🥞🔞 (@OkonoPancake) reported

    Might stream overwatch later today because I have a problem 😌

  • NickParkerGG Nick Parker 🎃 (@NickParkerGG) reported

    Overwatch 2 needs to fix the fact you get disconnected when you unlock achievements on Xbox

  • TheIceKingOW1 TheIceKing (@TheIceKingOW1) reported

    @BlizzardCS I’m getting a bug where my damage dealt and healing aren’t going towards my weekly challenge in Overwatch 2 they still show zero of both. Any ideas on how to fix this? Will I get credit later? I don’t want to miss out on the BP XP for the week.

  • dtrentj dtrentj (@dtrentj) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Yeah this game ain’t it. 25 million gave you a chance, and 20 million left after the first ten days. To many problems. Won 7 placements in ten games, placed bronze 5. I was diamond in overwatch 1. I’m not the greatest player, but I sure as hell ain’t bronze.

  • Br0gers_ Brogers_ (@Br0gers_) reported

    How to fix overwatch 2 balancing from a dude who has 50 hrs in the game, characters without dashes dont stand a ******* chance, that is all.

  • JackieAlexender Jackie Alexender🔜 MFF (@JackieAlexender) reported

    How much of Overwatch 2's issues is blizzards fault and how much is the devs fault. After the resurgence of Cyberpunk 2077 showed me how much of a difference that makes... How much blame lands on the devs shoulders cause we all know blizzard is a ******* TOXIC ******* corp.

  • iLoveCowBoyCoc Evon (@iLoveCowBoyCoc) reported

    @BlizzardCS can you please address why thousands of people Overwatch is crashing without a error message. I haven't been able to play since launch

  • grk__official grk__ (@grk__official) reported

    Man, I love Overwatch 2. I could play that game every day, but Blizzard, please fix this game. Almost every time I leave the game is because it freezes, and there's no option to quit it, till you log off on Windows. Please, do something. It would be really appreciated 🙏🏻

  • AbrelioJ Abrelio Jose (@AbrelioJ) reported

    @pcgamer About the state of overwatch 2, I think that they released it too early. They have so many bugs and lots of things didn't work. I think they should remove overwatch 2 and fix all the bugs and issues and then release it

  • Topherson6 Topherson (@Topherson6) reported

    @MatteoScorsone2 @WarnTV Lunar colony does have an interesting and fun layout for an Overwatch map. The issue with it is that in a ranked match, unless they knew what they were doing, the attacking side had a super rough time pushing through. The maps layout faired much better for the defense team.

  • Cranborry1 Cranborry (@Cranborry1) reported

    @BlizzardCS Hey @BlizzardCS. My merge queue keeps reseting everytime it hits 0. AND only 1 or 2 of my skins from the first overwatch is unlocked. Pls help with this issue

  • OhSalcedo OhJason (@OhSalcedo) reported

    @CarefreePoke But that's the thing idc about being unique this is an issue that's going to kill the game for everyone and you don't see it. People are not organically improving due to skill tier division hand outs from the overwatch team and poor balancing choices...

  • CamOW_ Cam! (@CamOW_) reported

    My theory on what happened with the BROKEN placement matches in Overwatch 2. Thread. my theory on what happened is people who were inactive, even if they were GM or something before, decayed way too much. I think the decision to do a soft MMR reset came a little late (1/x)

  • orenjikokoro Gareth - Fireweed (@orenjikokoro) reported

    Overwatch 2 is seriously broken, every single DPS needs a massive nerf.

  • CelesteYamato K'Sante Lover ❤️ (@CelesteYamato) reported

    @DreamyLucyna even overwatch 2 doesn't give me any issue

  • pumpkincandys riri 🎃 (@pumpkincandys) reported

    is anyone else having this issue where the controller on console for overwatch 2 is moving on its own during game? like going left, right, really fast and on its own ?

  • Moonl1ghtSHDW eterꑭal void👹🐍🇺🇦 (@Moonl1ghtSHDW) reported

    @Xbox Though before read it to the end that this was about overwatch achievement crash Fix it pls

  • xSeplayHuntress Seplay/CJ🐺💜🍀🌙Commissions open! (0/3) (@xSeplayHuntress) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Overwatch is still broken/bugged af regardless :/
