  • AimlessRL Aimless (@AimlessRL) reported

    @DirtyLamby Enjoy fortnite I suppose. Wait childish.. maybe talk to the overwatch players. The point is all communities have their problems but you choose which ones to focus on and allow around you. Don’t like ****** people? Block em. It’s what I do. I just chill and play if I feel like it.

  • Laiabee Laia Bee (ⓛ ω ⓛ) (@Laiabee) reported

    Since #ApexLegends servers are not working well, Boyfiance suggested we returned to #overwatch again . I feel like I’m going back to an old toxic relationship...

  • GHSTagony Valkyrie (@GHSTagony) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ Overwatch’s aim assist isn’t even that strong compared to other games so I don’t even see the issue giving it to controller users

  • TheRealJezi_ Jeziel #FullSEN #ShieldsUP (@TheRealJezi_) reported

    Anyone else feel like all meta changes should be removed after a meta is done because the problem doesn't apply anymore? #OW #Overwatch

  • Kougeru Kougeru / こうげる🌙 🐉 Vtuber (@Kougeru) reported

    I thought my overwatch was broken cuz i couldn't get more than 60hz but apparently the menus are just locked to 60 fps lol. went to training and it's at 300 FPS again

  • derekator Derek (@derekator) reported

    Blizzard ******* close down your servers on your dogshit game you call overwatch and maybe we won't uninstall after every ranked game ******* jokes how do you make every hero so broken

  • RANDGRRRIS ᚱ ᚨ ᚾ ᛞ ᚷ ᚱ ᛁ ᛊ (@RANDGRRRIS) reported

    I made a PSN Store purchase yesterday for blizzards game Overwatch, i can provide a screenshot if needed. If you can't help me with this issue then please temporarily suspend the account.

  • K1NGKYO ⚠️⚠️B||L||M⚠️⚠️ (@K1NGKYO) reported

    Some day I'll get my replacement mouse & I'll be able to play Mercy again. Without one of my thumb buttons, I can't super jump easily. So rip overwatch till my mouse is ordered. I had to re-bind a button in Apex so I can run without the broken thumb button. Rip mouse

  • TripleS_Trip Triple S (@TripleS_Trip) reported

    50 (cont.) Batman vs Superman and Overwatch. In Fraymakers they can replace those lines with Indie-specific lines to dial up the fan service to 11. If a certain company wants some sort of representation in Fraymakers that isn’t as fully playable or an assist then... (3/4).

  • pngdotjpeg Xylophone (@pngdotjpeg) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ Bro I'm literally trying. My friends and I started a Minecraft server on the new update, and we've been playing for a while, but I opened Overwatch "just to get the Ana skin" and played for 5 hours. I think I have a problem.

  • Eekdia 김말전 (@Eekdia) reported

    @KODEVIL2 That is why it is a problem. It may be OK in your country, but the Overwatch League is an official position. Wouldn't it be right to abstain from official occasions?

  • ScienceLookout Avery: Weeb Physicist (@ScienceLookout) reported

    @wagatwe I have had games and series that I loved, and I have had to quit them. I have gambling issues, and games like overwatch, TF2, hearthstone, etc, really aren't healthy. If I need/want an item, but the only realistic way to get it is random chance, that's evil game design.

  • h0verlord h0verlord (@h0verlord) reported

    how do you fix that stupid started playing overwatch stopped playing overwatch started playing overwatch stopped playing overwatch started playing overwatch stopped playing overwatch Anybody knows? It's been happening randomly with my friends and they also said "i'm doing it"

  • MetroidDread_ ⚢ Samus ♡’s Ikaros (@MetroidDread_) reported

    It’s wild to imagine that while in game, Sigma from Overwatch isn’t broken or anything, in canon he is- for all intents and purposes- a god

  • AmethystOfEarth AmethystOfTheEarth 🔞 (@AmethystOfEarth) reported

    Old Overwatch followers might know how I feel about irl ****** knowing I got in trouble for that in tumblr lol

  • bxbblegumbarbie brigittes wife (@bxbblegumbarbie) reported

    things that need to be reworked in Overwatch 2: - Widowmaker (make her butt bigger every time she gets a kill. very good motivator) - Pharah has infinite flight and isn’t allowed to wear clothes - Sombra **** day (once a month every sombra is naked) - Mercy naked glitch :)

  • UziOzoa Ozoa 🌹 (@UziOzoa) reported

    @SH4D0W_____ problem is i dont enjoy playin that at all by myself and even with a squad i cant say im enjoying it. And if i dont enjoy playing it by myself im never gonna improve/rank up and im just gonna feel stuck like i do currently with csgo and back when we played overwatch.

  • NathanReitan Nathan Reitan (@NathanReitan) reported

    @Froppy_ow I would wouldn’t say Overwatch is to blame. It’s more likely You* is the problem.

  • C_Navarrete30 Christian Arath Navarrete (@C_Navarrete30) reported

    What's the real gun-ho Texas approach to this issue? Sustainable grids in every, single, county, city, district. And, an overwatch system so honest, so great, for the state-wide decisions ya know, that they CAN'T shut off something that doesn't belong to them. Ever. Why can they?

  • BAJSED 🇮🇹Bajisimo🇮🇹 (@BAJSED) reported

    btw overwatches biggest problem is blizzard catering to the mouth breathers who can't reach grandmaster and only care about skins this is why they have been neglecting the pvp for a trash pve game and the only updates since early 2020 have been skin related

  • JonathonStryker Tyler Gavinski (@JonathonStryker) reported

    @JupiterJepsen @alphaINTEL Currently? Oh, absolutely. But, then again, I haven't had nearly as many performance problems with Overwatch as I have with Apex (You know, like server issues and such). And all the content in the world doesn't matter if you can't play it, or you have a bad experience doing so.

  • JaneLednovich Jane (@JaneLednovich) reported

    Overwatch is broken. I’m seeing >20 min wait time for DPS on Quick Play, and that’s with cross platforming on.

  • KODEVIL2 KODEVIL (@KODEVIL2) reported

    @Eekdia That’s the problem, the communication failed and Seoul still refused to punish him. Fans are in anger, so as the famous artists who drew the picture. The sbb shits did tremendous damage to Chinese overwatch industry, that’s the main reason why these pictures are shown.

  • TheLostSwede LG (@TheLostSwede) reported

    @TrueFerret @Respawn @PlayApex Overwatch has worked fine this entire time. Not saying they don't have server issues from time to time, but nothing is as bad as Apex at the moment.

  • tkvaley ! nima (@tkvaley) reported

    anyways overwatch only ever brought me pain and anger issues so i no longer play it

  • NINESTACK_ NINESTACK (@NINESTACK_) reported

    I keep attempting to branch out to other games, but I keep finding myself coming back to #Overwatch... I may have a problem.

  • KappaIsMusic Kappa (@KappaIsMusic) reported

    @GFuelEnergy Overwatch is the game that made me crack down on my anger issues

  • SterbenNicht Angela Ziegler (@SterbenNicht) reported

    @TheDrOdeorain Angela sighs and leans back in her chair. Moira's arm had been giving her problems since Overwatch. And it's definitely gotten worse. Moira said she'd been managing it, but it's not the same as a cure. Her next sigh is enough to know she was, perhaps, beginning to consider it.

  • CallMeCheckers CheckersMcGavern (@CallMeCheckers) reported

    @ATVIAssist Since your support website won't let me submit a report (Keeps telling me I need to fill in all fields when I already have them all filled out). Your Cold War Servers are experiencing MAJOR connectivity issues. It's not my internet, Overwatch plays smoothly.
