@Viexi_ @monsterhunter Not 100% related to MoHu but save and Server struktures could be a problem If Cross save wasn't a point building it. For example the servers are the thing that blocks Overwatch from having Crosssave

@Kraklano @JC330585664 @IdeJacob It's funny. They come under my post and cry that my tweet offended them. I have no prob with ppl hating Overwatch. I actually ( shocker) respect other people's dissenting opinions.I do; however, have a problem with disrespect.

Druids And Sisters - Similar to Elder Scrolls Online, but instead of the player's horse, add some fan service from Overwatch, namely Torbjorn's turret.

I met a guy through Overwatch and we dated for over two years. He was abusive, controlling and had anger issues. I do not recommend dating an Overwatch player.

@timmy77779 @GetGianni @smallercolumbo I dunno what to say about Overwatch since i haven’t played it for a while, but it still looks like a pretty fun game, the problem is that the community seems to have a thing for female characters in the game [2/3]

@PlayOverwatch It’s doing that thing again where it says I need Live to play Overwatch when it’s been paid already. I don’t know why I keep receiving so many problems from this game and every other game is perfectly fine. 😕 I’m skipping this year, I guess.

@timothy_skim @BlizzardCS This will keep going down. D4 pipeline many years away, looks cartoony like d3. PoE 2 will eat its lunch. Overwatch 2 not compelling. WoW not growing, story not a hit. They've proven can't launch games (WC3 a mess, D2R login issues for 3 weeks). Company is a terrible investment.

And even last night it was nothing but lag in the dungeon and just crash after crash afterwards. Inb4 **** iNtErNeT, my Xbox only has this issue with games like ESO and Paladins. Destiny 2? Runs like a Maserati. Cold War/Warzone plays like a ******* dream. Overwatch? Beautiful.

There has been this thing that has been bugging me for a while now and I can't fix it no matter what so I'm turning to twitter now On Overwatch, my framerate in-game is always capped at 60 FPS no matter what. This only started recently, and below i will list the things i've tried

@queenofsmut18 @CosmicNoctis The problem isn't that Jonathan Kent is gay, but rather, for every bad story line DC releases, they turn another character gay, to "fix" their image, much in the same way that Blizzard turns Overwatch characters gay. It's not very exciting and not something that moves copies.

@SmashNate9955 @JhoJhokage @monsterhunter Witcher 3 has cross-play & cross save. Fortnite, DbD, Overwatch, Apex Legends, and Rocket League all offer cross play on Switch. There was a deeper issue here but Nintendo doesn't hate cross-play apparently.

@AskPS_UK Hi. I've been trying to play overwatch and it kept popping up with an error message saying unable to connect. I have uninstalled the game and reinstalled it but now it is saying there is an update I need to do but nothing is showing on the downloads tab.

@Loudwindow Not to name names (Overwatch) but some communities really have this issue bad of babyfying Korean/Asian players as "he didnt know" or "darn language barrier" like the concept of slurs doesn't exist anywhere but the US

@BlizzardCS It's not today, it's every ******* day. Last time I ever spend a dime with your trash company. I felt scummy doing it anyway, and after this *********** of constant server issues I'll won't even consider picking up Overwatch 2 or D4.

@gooomiez I am convinced that half of the gamers who play team based games don't understand that the objective is to help one another win, not showboat and try to get as many eliminations as one can. This is a common problem in titles like Overwatch and Fortnite as well.

honestly i don't have a problem with people preferring tf2 over overwatch or vice versa but i don't really get why there are still a lot of TF2 fans who are so... elitist about it

@thegameawards I would say Apex, if they would fix their damn servers. But I would have to give it to either Overwatch or Smash Bros Ultimate if that’s considered a multiplayer game.

I'm so so so bored of SR hell in Overwatch. As support or a tank, there's always 1 person in the team who completely ruins it, and the problem perpetuates itself.

@Flakfire Battlefield just needs to add outlines like overwatch or sum ****, it’s been a problem for years. Would speed up gameplay and stop people from hiding as much, plus wouldn’t make you have to hesitate to tell who I’d friend vs foe

1. I was sent it out-of-the-blue by a person that wishes to be kept anonymous 2. This has nothing to do with Overwatch and more with his inability to have a correct & humane conversation. Instead, he mocks. Stop having a stick up your ***, it’s not about OW. You’re the issue.

@__caprica That's basically my issue. I'm not very good at non-support roles (my aim has gotten worse over the years) so games like Siege are terrible for me. Overwatch is fine but I'm bored with it. I play Apex with my siblings but we're all terrible lol.

@yesmynameissumo Apex Legends, Titanfall, Destiny, Overwatch, Gears 5 (outside of first 2 days & not inc SP), CS Go etc all pretty much bug free for me out the gate. BF2042 beta defo one of the buggiest I've ever tried. Flickering skies/artifacting, hit marker issues etc every round I played lol.

I'm sorry but **** Titanfall it's a rip off of games like Apex and overwatch and they try hacking into other games to try to get people to play there **** game, just like last season in apex when Titanfall hacked it saying sign in to save Titanfall so yeah no your game is a rip
