@trublood505 @FortniteGame It’s only against PC players. And it ONLY happens in Fortnite. I’m big into Overwatch 2 and it never glitches with crossplay. Thinking it may be a software issue for PC and Xbox consoles. I completely quit playing solo even though I have close to 2k wins.

Overwatch has become absolute trash. Aaron and his incompetent devs ruined it by making broken matchmaker even worse, on top of absolute horrendous balancing. They need to be fired #overwatch2

Overwatch is A good game. If people spent as much Time fighting for “who’s role is most important” , spend It instead on bugging Developers to fix the problems , It would be a Great game.

@lueyow Tbh I think the formatting for a "championship series" is fine the way it is (the long haul) I think the issue that collegiate Overwatch has is that the OWCC is basically the only centralized tournament. Shorter tournaments always yield smaller fields (idk why) 1/2

@PipeLayer62 Dude I’ve felt this so hardcore for years, I’ve always had slight input lag on my PC when I run Overwatch (literally only OW), it feels ******* awful and jank and it’s like everything I do becomes RNG based

@OfficialBard0 @_dault Overwatch is pretty great tbh, but yeah the problem with a game like that is that it doesn't attract a casual playerbase because the skill gap is too wide, this is what quake etc suffers from. If a casual has zero chance of killing a player better than them, they just won't play

@onehandedbndt I would say the view of fun is subjective. I have fun in a comp setting with ranked overwatch. If I lose it isn't like before. People see elden ring as fun, I don't cause the frustration from it does not seem fun to me. I think people taking games to serious is the issue.

@PipeLayer62 It happens, I just sorta call it overnight rust Keep in mind there’s a chance it’s NOT you and Overwatch, I constantly have to restart my entire PC to sometimes fix awkward mouse lag before it feels “right” Overwatch has absolutely terrible optimization settings

@TheSymbolistFGC why does live service imply that the game will be treated and balanced as if its a moba or something? like that sounds like overwatch or some **** not a fighting game how does live service imply that

@spragels @minishep_ They have to fix whatever they changed with matchmaking. My buddy we are trying to get back into the game gets paired against masters five stacks and he's vet 5 duo-ing with another vet player. Then Zacian 1 on 3's his team chasing them up the flux and he's back to overwatch.

The Overwatch community is an embarrassing display of incels who can't wait to suggest everyone but them is the problem. They've been told "It's not you, it's me" so many times they've ****** internalized it.

@MxleficPrince ;; bro **** horizon and paris i dont miss those ik people didn't really like volskaya but ngl i kinda did. i hate the approach overwatch took. oh, we can't fix double shield meta? okay, remove a tank. oh, we can't fix 2cp? okay, remove it. instead of fixing, they just remove.

I think for me right now the biggest thing I want the overwatch devs to fix is when I queue for Support and Tank I actually get both not get Support like 17 out of 20 games (I'm making up numbers but you get my point) @PlayOverwatch

@ModernWarzone Never understood the incessant bitching about multiplayer games. I have no issue with WZ2 or overwatch or whatever. They would have to make huge wild changes that interfere with my gameplay. Which they just happened to not do to me.

@ArkJurassic @SteveChillGame Halo is weirdly one of the few games where people have standards lol. Overwatch 2 launched with every issue Infinite had and many more, yet I don't see have the drama for it. I have no idea why so many people still play MW2 lol. MW2 is so much worse than Halo imo.
