I respect blizzard adding new changes to overwatch 2 to however removing ranked Sr & loot boxes are two great things about original overwatch I definitely do believe some changes needed to be made to make new one fresh etc but If features aren’t broken don’t fix it

So Overwatch 2 is absolutely fantastic gameplay wise. I am in love with the game all over again. However, these server issues are flat awful. 2 days later and we still have 30-40 min + Queues and disconnects mid match. I hope Microsoft can teach Blizz stability and uptime..

I honestly haven’t been having a problem getting into Overwatch servers, but I feel bad for console players that have to sacrifice their first born to get into a match.

@forestminish Very, very on point. We have to wait and see if Microsoft can go in and wipe out management and replace it, certainly a possibility, one that would benefit many employees (IMHO).. I just don't see Spencer putting up with this. I never played Overwatch. I have no problem waiting.

Overwatch 2 is so stupid why give us ONE day to merge and not announce it? I didn’t even know it was closing down till a day after it did. I had everything in ow1 from all cosmetics to golden guns to level like 987, and boom everything is gone now. I swear to god blizzard. Fix it

@BlizzardCSEU_EN sorry to bother, but if i disconnect my xbox account from my blizzard account to try to fix the error i keep getting, will it affect the merge of my stuff being transferred over to overwatch 2??

the fact that overwatch has a queue until you can login only for you to be put in another ******* queue is abysmal

@PlayOverwatch You have a large amount of your paying customers locked out and experiencing log in issues due to YOUR MERGING FAULTS. Customers who liked your product enough when it cost $60 to buy it at least twice. Now you are paying us back? #Overwatch #betrayal

@Dead_Palette I mean the bad reviews are obviously from the server issues-- Sure the game is fine lol. Though yes, the preservationist in me is pissed they killed Overwatch for no good reason.

@PlayOverwatch It seems that now the new norm when playing overwatch is wait in queue for an hour and a half, get to play 2 games, join a third and then get a server error and end up in a queue which will take hours, best money ever spent on a new game -_-

Have only been able to play 2 games of #Overwatch since it’s release because after each match I get disconnected and then put in a queue that never ends. 😤 wish this problem was fixed.

Activision CAN'T do anything right. How you fk up a game like Overwatch 1 (now 2). The fact I cannot even access the game which I bought for $40 at launch is a sad fkn state of gaming in 2022. I guess money is more important than a fair work space and a functional service.

honestly my experience with the Overwatch 2 launch has been so awful it makes me not want to play the game. Constant server errors logging me in and then hours of queue waiting time just makes me want to play something else lol. 10/10 experience tho when i do get to play lol

@kongu992 @OhNoItsAlexx If you never play support why you should care? Even in the future the next hero is a tank and after that another support, most ow player play dps only. And btw every hero shoter you still need unlock them, why it's overwatch only problem?

Feels weird saying this but Overwatch 2 is actually fun They (finally) fixed a lot of the problems and although it's the same game, it feels much different
