Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • piraguaroja 🥤blaiddrunner☆ (@piraguaroja) reported

    @Wukongpeenie bad game design imo. it works in titanfall bc the game is designed with that in mind. that is not the case for overwatch and it should be balanced accordingly because right now we’re facing the issue of power crept DPS but only in specific cases

  • FlawSocial SocialDesignFlaw (@FlawSocial) reported

    Overwatch 2 : Tank Health Number one design/balance problem in the game. The root of all further conversation or "The Godfather Flaw" of it all, is Tank Health. It's what defined GOATs (and it's problems), the rise of AoE Heals, Damage Boost and One-Shot proliferation-

  • justakaashi yanna ☀️ (@justakaashi) reported

    Not me searching overwatch on twt only to find out ppl have huge problemS with my main 😭😭😭

  • ElevensGd Elevens (@ElevensGd) reported

    Overwatch 2 seems to have the same problems that Bloons TD Battles 2 had, except Ninja Kiwi actually fixed the problems.

  • SkyMan_J Sky | Royal (@SkyMan_J) reported

    Dear Overwatch players, Orisa and Hog aren’t broken, you just aren’t countering them. Stop going tracer/genji as DPS. Mercy is the most OP character right now, but y’all keep pocketing tanks instead of Soj/Ashe/Echo. It hurts my soul. Sincerely, A Mercy Main

  • vay2743x Vay || ✧OW/OSU Pngtuber✧ (@vay2743x) reported

    No Stream today need to figure out my internet problem streaming Overwatch 2...

  • Handsa_OW Handsa (@Handsa_OW) reported

    @skiesti_ This type of patch may solve the biggest problem of Overwatch since the beta in 2016. Which is that the armor is getting heal the same than life but reduce dmg by 50% per sources of dmg up to 5.

  • DavisGenthner Game_Breaker (@DavisGenthner) reported

    Blizzard for the love of God, fix overwatch 2 spent an ungodly amount of time, waiting for a match only to find that one of our healers was throwing, he straight up, sat in the corner, the whole game occasionally pressing buttons to not get kicked, never healed anyone #Overwatch2

  • texturedghost Tex 🍄 (@texturedghost) reported

    my overwatch was severely lagging so i had to end stream :( sorry about it being a bit shorter today but tomorrow we’ll play some comp :)

  • rezmegaila kayla. ❄️ (@rezmegaila) reported

    is it just me or is overwatch matchmaking broken

  • Flats_OW Flats (@Flats_OW) reported

    Sojourn this, Mercy that, why don't we talk about the REAL issue plaguing overwatch 2 Voiceline spam got stealth nerfed so that voicelines can only be used/heard 3-4 times per game, after that its client side only. How will I know if the shrine is a refuge? or what dey say?

  • JuanDeLeon24_ Juan (@JuanDeLeon24_) reported

    Overwatch really needs to fix their ranked system

  • berriijam berri 🍓 (@berriijam) reported

    @ItsSomjuu she is fun but she is broken as hell, like if IM GOOD with a hero in overwatch, they're broken

  • siddysway sid (@siddysway) reported

    playing #overwatch comp is worse than playing valorant comp. that is saying something @PlayOverwatch can you fix your damn matchmaking so i can stop getting people leaving after the first half of the damn game?

  • TheHanzoShimada Hanzo Shimada (@TheHanzoShimada) reported

    Why don’t blizzard just ban Sojourn from comp till they work her out? Nothing but problems have followed her since release. #Overwatch #Overwatch2 #Blizzard

  • aguerium Game Night (@aguerium) reported

    If you complain about hog in overwatch 2 it is simply a skill issue. He has been the same for 7 years i dont understand why he's a problem now, just play around hook its not that hard

  • loawfii Loawfii (@loawfii) reported

    @Questr0n People seem to forget that Overwatch is a pvp game. Sure there are things like soj/mercy and hog that are broken and therefore unfun, but it's never going to feel good to be shut down by another character, whether that be a Hanzo headshot or a clutch sleep dart.

  • ZynergyGames ZYNERGY 💜 (@ZynergyGames) reported

    Every overwatch 2 hero is broken Until you use them

  • REDACT3DLabs REDACTED Labs (@REDACT3DLabs) reported

    @FiercePC @redactedmags Computer is actually a ******* mystery it barely functions half the time yet runs Cyberpunk super modded just fine. Yet Overwatch makes it crash.

  • ellactrical 𝘌𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 (@ellactrical) reported

    **** telstra greedy bastards wanting $5 extra per month just so i can fly through walls on overwatch and disconnect discord every 2 seconds i wanna kms

  • Lennox_ahhh Lennox (@Lennox_ahhh) reported

    They gotta fix overwatch like its not fun to play, i dont know what it is but something needs to go (hog and sombra)

  • ANS_owEnjoyer Ryne is not funny 😱 (@ANS_owEnjoyer) reported

    see the thing with apex and Overwatch is in apex at least it feels like I get genuinely out skilled compared to Overwatch where people just abuse broken characters 24/7 and try nothing new

  • James63850832 ACCELERANDOO (@James63850832) reported

    Overwatch is in such a horrible state rn Orisa is immortal Hog is immortal but with a one shot Mercy is just silly Sojourn is still insanely broken but I can't see how she could be balanced without making her **** It is so tilting to play

  • iHrtZen everett (@iHrtZen) reported

    overwatch players be saying every hero is broken bc they suck at the game when rn the only broken heroes are hog and sojourn

  • Oxex_Raclir Callum 🏳️‍🌈 (@Oxex_Raclir) reported

    Honestly I wish I had a platform so speak on overwatch metas and problems but I’m just a generic acc lol

  • Pulce_LL ⚡🧪 𝙒𝙍𝘼𝙏𝙃 𝙊𝙁 𝙅𝙐𝙉𝙆𝙀𝙉𝙎𝙏𝙀𝙄𝙉 🧪⚡ (@Pulce_LL) reported

    Mentions broke for me too so if I don't leave a like in a week to whatever reply it Didn't appear on my notifs and it got lost. It actually ******* happened times in the past ******* hell Twitter be as broken as Roadhog in overwatch

  • CryptoKarrots CryptoKarrots (@CryptoKarrots) reported

    Hey @Blizzard_Ent @PlayOverwatch maybe don’t ban your players for an hour just because YOUR game did that “applying update” error while loading into game. Do better. Done with overwatch.

  • GummyGGS Gummy (@GummyGGS) reported

    @ProjectXbox17 You keep using the word virgin, you’re clearly projecting. also the activision blizzard deal might fail so I don’t know why you’re bundling them in. I mean enjoy your buggy and broken Bethesda games, Overwatch and cod would stay on playstation regardless.

  • AA712_Beam AA712 Beam (@AA712_Beam) reported
