@kaitmarie079 OK Kait, we’re having problems with Overwatch so we’ll be playing something else unfortunately. I’ll let you know when we do play that.

@YourFellowArab The issue is that spending a lot of time at something to remain good is a overall issue in all games not just FN, believing that is being delusional. Leage of legends, overwatch, CS go, Valorant so forth have the same show of angry toxic professional players.

Overwatch really needs to fix that whole backfill deal... letting people join on the last few seconds of the game, only to see the defeat screen 5 seconds in 😔

@PaulTassi Try using Ping and then use Overwatch (which shoots through all cover). Broken AF.

@Childsouljaboy Overwatch in its prime was a movie. Also yelling at kids can be a public service if you think about it

@CCkun91 They're not fun to play against but how is this a problem when that same everyone has access to these CC effects in the first place? Plus, overwatch, csgo, and CoD with these CC effects are recognized as competitive shooters with major LAN tournaments so why bring up D2 at all?

@TitanfallBlog its not becoming overwatch, theyre just catering to the **** players. i really dont care what anyone says, caustic is the most broken and overpowered legend ever made. and they keep buffing the ****** cause bad players can get very easy kills with his stupid kit

@BlizzardCS More Overwatch, but I can't play online. It fails to connect to servers, it's not my internet cause I can play COD and Sea of Thieves no problem. I'd really like to play because I don't want to miss the seasonal events.

Loss after loss, I'm reminded why I absolutely hate overwatch sometimes. however it prioritizes players around your rank seems to be at best broken. It makes escaping your current rank/elo impossible if you're starting from the bottom of the barrel lol.

@TitanfallBlog Let me also add how one of the devs said that they don't want the game to end up like overwatch or just a ability based game. Suck it up cause good **** will come especially if we all deal w the problems with respect when talking to any dev about said change

So had to reinstall windows cuz it was messing with my cpu. After friends power cut out. Was solid for a week but the 3rd overwatch game yesterday encountered blue screen of death.... lots of work to be done to get everything back to normal, I’m sure it’s a gpu driver error

@ATVIAssist when did cold war turn into overwatch, with how shitty and glitched out it is? People shooting you through walls from across the map. Or, people not taking any damage when you shoot an entire magazine at their heads. Broken on Cyberpunk2077 level.

Why does everyone hate Overwatch or make jokes about Overwatch being awful? What did it do wrong? If you have issues with Blizzard, I get it. But what did the game ever do to you? lol. Is it just because it was a "fad" like Fortnite, so it is trendy to make fun of it?

I’m so sorry but I need to start the stream at 8pm CST and played until midnight???? I’m having a lot of issues including with audio etc and would like to get it figured out. See y’all @ 8pm CST for Overwatch. In the future there shouldn’t be so many issues sorry y’all.

Testing out my MPOW M5 wireless earbuds. Great for music and streaming but there's a noticable lag when playing Overwatch. At some point I'll need a wireless headset worth a darn.

@_AMooseVA_ ok lets see here for the sake of argument, we can say overwatch came out roughly at the same time as the 2016 NBA draft. Lets see who from that draft has made the biggest impact on the world Ben Simmons... Do you see the issue with this argument?

Watching CR C2 again cuz I got no sense of self preservation, found an episode were Mattew was trying to tell the party the time of the day. Only problem was that this was after he started voicing McCree for Overwatch. And "the sun was high up in the sky".
