  • LennaL28 Lenna (@LennaL28) reported

  • JustFinax 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏 ✨ (@JustFinax) reported

    I wish I could play Overwatch 2 with babe since we‘re so motivated to play again—but she keeps getting those server issues or error codes. Aye, #Overwatch2 fix your servers. There are people that would like to play your game during the weekend.

  • FaitalityKing FaitalityKing (@FaitalityKing) reported

    I’ve found out that certain profiles are locked out of servers without any notice and those locked profiles will receive the LC-208 error repetitively. The best fix is to purchase a new phone line and play on an alternative account. #Overwatch2 @BlizzardCS #overwatch

  • Crazydrg CrazyDrG (@Crazydrg) reported

  • sindulf0 Sindulfo V (@sindulf0) reported

    @JustinWhang i was super late to overwatch 1 and the issue was that the only people left were veterans. even in a “4/20 and chill” custom lobby everyone was a casual expert while wasted and getting mad at me for doing bad. so OW2 is your chance to play with other noobs for once. do it.

  • L1LSTEELSKIN 🛡️Xavier The Fabulous🛡️ (@L1LSTEELSKIN) reported
