    is anyone else experiencing lag on overwatch on ps4 because i literally am at 100 ms

  • WestBrook___ 𝙒𝙚𝙨𝙩𝘽𝙧𝙤𝙤𝙠 (@WestBrook___) reported

    @ThatAFKNoob @BOOOOOOOOOO00M You see absolutely ZERO issue with how dva, is ONLY played at the level that has roughly 200 players? Literally no one except for absolute morons says to balance at OWL level, because OWL level simply is NOT the same overwatch we play on a daily basis on ladder.

  • waiteraman Waiter Raman (@waiteraman) reported

    @CSGO That's not the only issue. The root cause of the cheaters issue is this game is free. So if they get banned they just create new account. This is why I stopped receiving overwatch games as mod. Please make this game paid again.

  • FacialWeight Callum (@FacialWeight) reported

    In the days of Games as a Service, it's a miracle Overwatch has held onto the playerbase it has considering the repetitive yearly events and painfully slow matchmaking

  • AmazonBeffJezos Beff Jezos (@AmazonBeffJezos) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ They cater to the pros because the pros have perfected how to win the game and where actual balance issues are. If it wasn’t overwatch league it would still be catered to GMs and you’d still be mad

  • Kagamineriri1 Kagamineriri (@Kagamineriri1) reported

    frick my pc crash form overwatch and lost work form my model now she again with no hair lets do it over again XD

  • paulmgn95 killuaminaty (@paulmgn95) reported

  • Thatoneguy64 Brandon (@Thatoneguy64) reported

    @horrowfide @OccultoMundi @decoyrobot god now i'm reminiscing about the 3 months of unemployment i had in 2016 where all i did was drink 40s, watch movies, and play overwatch man working blows and not working rocks

  • bazant255 bazant25 (@bazant255) reported

    @Psamatheh Oh I had the same issue in overwatch, people always called me she/her pronouns...so yeah, I feel you

  • PrinceDegen marcus (@PrinceDegen) reported

    THERE'S A PROBLEM HERE??? You suck. Watermelons are ******* fantastic... like the most subtle, sweet pleasure. Refreshing being as they are close to water, but not so much that they are celery (yikes). You know what else is Yikes? OVERWATCH. What a dogshit game with SO MUCH

  • DiscStal Stal, ᓭד ̣ ᔑꖎ (me when Stewie Griffin) (@DiscStal) reported

    @SPMForSmash -Overwatch more like overrated -Crash of the Titans and mind over Mutants are two great games -That's it

  • flippeee5 flippeee5 (@flippeee5) reported

    @twomad Me explaining how they ****** up overwatch 1 to the point of trash and refused it fix it then just makes a new game because they want to just start over

  • IVazifyyt Its VazifyYT (@IVazifyyt) reported

    this would fix fortnite... if they made more than 1 map that you could go to like after one game you would switch to the chapter 2, chapter 1 , or even like chapter 3 , 4 , 5 etc if we have a chapter 3,4,5 map and after that you would switch like in other games like overwatch etc

  • HoodyODTV HoodyOD 👑 (@HoodyODTV) reported

    I finally did it. I FINALLY UNISTALLED OVERWATCH FROM MY PC! I can now move on to bigger and better games. The game was fun for some time, but I can't play it anymore with the recent community and other game issues that probably won't get a fix. I'll wait for OW2 but not on OW.

  • puddles_ow Puddles (@puddles_ow) reported

    To do list: -Try not to be dead by 19 -fix pc so I can start editing a lot more -finish script of 2 hour video -get a new proper irl job for a while -derust at overwatch and start playing again for real

  • KelseyYuriWaifu 🌸Autism Cat🌸 (@KelseyYuriWaifu) reported

    You should be required to have at least 3 stars on your border and a set amount of time on a given role in order to play it in comp* overwatch. It fixes a huge portion of the smurfing issues and keeps incompetent liabilities out of games where they do not belong. Problem solved.

  • Yunayo8 Virtual Youtuber Yunayo (@Yunayo8) reported

    It is like, deeply frustrating that it's not working well, since certain programs work great. Overwatch consistently has top-notch connection, but nothing else does. It's really having a bad effect; I constantly want to fix it, but don't know where to start. It's kinda rough

  • belaborjaql belabor (@belaborjaql) reported

    @bobskunk Isn't this still a problem in overwatch, even with robust reporting tools?

  • PotatoSocksL PotatoSocks (@PotatoSocksL) reported

    My 5 main issues with apex: +skill diff within games (worse than overwatch) +lobby not filling in time (resulting in unfull parties) +little to no communication +most abilities feel useless (most ults don't feel like ults, more like a secondary cooldown ability) +ONLY 2 MAPS?

  • yydtlds Allan 💞 (@yydtlds) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ okay so basically what i’ve collected from your page is that overwatch itself is ******* broken 😌

  • ian_c22 Ian Gouws (@ian_c22) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN guys ALL MY Overwatch GAMES ARE SABOTAGED as NONE of my team mates in ANY GAME nor ANY OF MY OPPONENTS knows what ATTACK/CONTEST/DEFEND is PLS FIX all you need is a dismissable notification on game start with the RULES PLS I can't get ANY OF YOU TO HELP ME

  • owo4ixd ً (@owo4ixd) reported

    @CSGO go fix overwatch retard

  • Dio_Brundo_1868 Dio Bruhdo (@Dio_Brundo_1868) reported

    @charlieINTEL 0. Warzone and CoD's gotten hard to play cause of dumbass SBMM and sweats that abuse every broken *** gun they can. Apex, GTA V, SWBF2 and Overwatch are WAY better cause of 1 thing: I can actually have fun in those games.

  • Erik11016716 Erik (@Erik11016716) reported

    @CSGO Fix your overwatch system or me and my friends are going to valorant cus this **** is unplayeble with so many cheaters in prime games I'm salty af. U will lose players if u don't fix problems with cheaters

  • DeyCallMeTravis Travis (@DeyCallMeTravis) reported

    @AskPlayStation ps5 won’t download my overwatch disk. Getting error code ce-10000-6. Disk works because it’s fine on my PS4

  • VampyrealGaming Vampyreal - Horror V-Tuber (LUNA) (@VampyrealGaming) reported

    The only way I can see this being a problem is if Overwatch doesn’t have the player base to make this happen. If that’s the case, I think I know why people have given up and stopped playing.

  • Ibrahim00989000 MeMeMeisteR2 (@Ibrahim00989000) reported

    Don't play matchmaking in csgo or u will get false overwatch banned. Everything will go to waste. This game is ****** broken. Play faceit or esea

    I’m having trouble with a decision so I’m going to make a poll. Recently I’ve been falling out of Valorant, and Overwatch is fun again but tough to play alone, and recently Val has been tilting me. I wanna go all in on a game, and grind one, which one should I go for?
