@aaronkellerOW @PlayOverwatch @Blizzard_Ent I can understand locking the new heroes for competitive but when I have 1500 hours of overwatch and you lock original heroes, I have a problem with that. Fix it.

@Queen_CamiTV I just had this issue despite playing matches in overwatch 2 already with the characters that are now locked if that makes sense im assuming its because they're doing a patch and that it'll be fixed idk its a little frustrating

Most of my heroes for overwatch 2 are locked now after I’ve had them unlocked for the entirety of overwatch 2 and over 1000 hours in overwatch 1 🙃 @BlizzardCS is there anyway to fix this?

I swear I will never complain about Bungies releases ever again considering how the Overwatch 2 launch has gone, considering it’s just basically an expansion. I’ve had so many issues with it, and it’s been a few days and I’m still having issues.

@PlayOverwatch I'm a little curious I dont have some of the characters unlocked now even though I played overwatch 1 and have been playing overwatch 2 the past few days with all the characters so why is it out of the blue that my characters are locked anyone else had this issue?

@PlayOverwatch Me and my friend both entered the game to see all of the heroes locked, despite the fact that we both had Overwatch 1, hero unlock missions are not even available. Please fix it soon.

I didn't think they could make Overwatch any worse and then they rereleased it broken.

Is anyone else having the problem where the latest #Overwatch2 quick fix makes it that you have to unlock all the heroes even if you owned overwatch 1??

@etony662 The biggest issue this game has is that it'll always be compared to OW1. The worst part is Im still gonna play it because I love the core Overwatch gameplay and all overwatch like games dont scratch the same itch for me!

Stoked for Overwatch 2. Lame glitch with OG accounts not getting all the hero’s. They were available when I initially got on and played some games but now they aren’t available.

@BlizzardCS Hi my friend has had overwatch since 2018 and today he has noticed that some heros are locked for him. Is there a fix for this? He already tried re logging and re launched the blizzard application and still they are locked

@Profiteroles12 @PibeDinamita @Jay3OW That’s fine. Overwatch has a steady amount of players that will play the game no matter what. If someone else doesn’t want to play the game that’s fine. But I believe it is wrong to bash the dev team for having an okay launch stifled by a ddos event
