i simply do not like overwatch because of their development path and how they felt the need to balance random **** for no reason that no one was complaining about (this isn't about the hook that was a problem)

@BlizzardCSEU_EN Is there issues going on with Overwatch servers at the moment? Every game I'm joining games my ping is constantly sat at 200+ ping..

Problem with Overwatch is that it never joined the F2P genre. Overwatch 2 wouldn't be as big as Overwatch on release. Probably a dead franchise in a few years just next to Diablo

@BatlethBabe I have to say, as toxic as the Overwatch community can be, I never had any problem with dudes giving me **** for playing. But, I think Overwatch has a high female player base so I guess maybe the dudes are used to us being there.

@OverwatchNaeri @PlayOverwatch They will make overwatch everything but they won’t fix their game

@TGDefinition Every other game calls it SMURFING. That’s exactly what it is. If that were considered cheating every pro in valorant, league, overwatch, CSGO, and DOTA would get in trouble. People want to learn new champs and get better with different strats in non ranked or elo inflated games.

2. Mechanical Issues How often I get on overwatch and there is a server-side problem that causes Noreg... Fix the netcode and update your hitboxes. There is no reason to not be able to hit a tire, or have bullets pass through. By ignoring this you're killing the game.

@ZemitGTronic @Respawn @PlayApex My PS4 has the thing where I ran into an issue saying something with "game logic". What I do is play another game like overwatch and then come back into apex and it works but sometimes like bruh

@MarvelSheriff I worry about the intelligence of the world. USAgent is supposed to be off brand Cap. A workable temporary fix but not a permanent alternative. He's actually really interesting. Always being second best. Even Overwatch made use of that dynamic.

@somsnosa_ @linusgsebastian Have you heard about Anime? Overwatch, literally anything. as long as it doesnt hurt anyone where is the problem? Adults get horny over things they like its just how it is.

I love how I bring this up every year but I started overwatch in 2017. This game is essentially telling me ( I placed play my first comp season) I play at the exact same skill level and have not made any improvements since then? Yeah no. The system is broken

Another issue is matchmaking times. Faceit won't start until a full 24 people have matched in and manually confirmed their presence. Casual will start within about a half minute, faceit in five. It's not overwatch DPS queue by any means but it's a directly comparable disadvantage

@RapscallionVNs Esports kills games and dries up a playerbase faster than anything else will. Overwatch was the most fun when it was a dumb party game where everything was broken. Lucio actually felt like a party, Roadhog Hook was scary. Mei was the only annoying thing in the game. Better times.

@Supersnow15 You're right but the problem they shouldnt be doing this. However consider this: Overwatch is 1 entry, and the content has been there for a few years now still constantly changing and updating, so why suddenly decide this next change is a standalone product?

LISTEN to US instead of TOSSING US ASIDE! We may not be Overwatch League Players, but we LOVE this game! We want the game to do well and to bring in more people! We're tired of the meta, we're tired of the stomping, the broken gameplay/heroes... Tired. We're tired.

@PaulieEsther1 I definitely think queues are an issue, even now. And MMR will exacerbate that problem. If dbd had as large a playerbase as overwatch it would work. But sadly, it does not

OK so a glitch wiped out like an hour of progress so we are not playing Little Nightmares today. Overwatch show in a bit.

@AngelBocangera You got the second part right, but the first part is the problem Overwatch 2 as described by you and the contents blizzard is promising shows it's a patch you're paying for, in a new SKU for no discernable reason. So what is the justification for making this NOT a patch?

@MrVisa1000 @MarvelStrikeF the amount of misogyny in games like Call of Duty, Overwatch and similar games is awful. "the majority don't have a problem" yeah they do LMAO it's a minority of guys in games that's actually respectful to women in games.

How to fix overwatch. 1. Bring back 6 stacking 2. Mics are a requirement in comp & if you don't comply there are penalties 3. Perma avoids 4. Top 500 should always start at 4300 5. We need more tanks & support heros 6. Stop adding skill-less dlc heros

@KylePlantEmoji Toxicity is a problem in all online competitive games unfortunately. One tip I can give you for Overwatch is that text chat in that game is useless for Comms (Game is too fast) so you can disable it and it makes the game a lot more fun.
