@ash_n_jokerr I just feel if overwatch was on the table they’d go for crash instead: Mario vs sonic vs crash is basically the essence of what smash bros is all about, so I don’t think they’d skip that opportunity for overwatch. Maybe AFTER crash got in at some point in the future

@Respawn @PlayApex Put the game in a complete maintenance mode like Overwatch and Destiny for one day. Fix everything you need to fix. For once, just listen to the actual community. This has been the worst event update ever since launch.

@PlayOverwatch fix Doomfist please! It is the only it is abused so much in mid level overwatch by smurf accounts it makes me want to quit the game. Used to be Widow, but that was corrected. Please help us.

@muselk I'm gonna be honest. I hate that Muselk is still playing fortnite. I would've gone back to him to watch again if he played literally anything else after TF2, but no. He went Overwatch, and then Fortnite. Two children's games back to back. ******' hell man, Fix yourself.

Overwatch isn't working out for me to well right now. Was streaming Apex for a bit but stream was choppy. Will be back in maybe an hour or so to resume it. Got some stuff to do and fix.

@CouRageJD No they will stall that game into oblivion, because they know that if they don't solve the issues that Overwatch had nobody will stay.

@SenorNopales @Trblmaka @Lemon_Here Not everyone can put the thousands of hours in required to be decent what you’re describing isn’t an Overwatch problem a competitive game problem in general. It’s fine though because if people don’t want to commit then it’s not for them it’s worth it tho

@ReflashProd Double shield. A tank rebalance would fix so many issues. That's what Overwatch 2 claims to fix. Brigitte,immo and hack would be way more tolerable without shield stacking

I gave up on Blizzard before all the labor and harassment issues. StarCraft 2 is old. HoTS was under supported and died. Diablo was ruined then forgotten. Warcraft was abandoned then brought back like trash. WoW was driven into the dirt by laziness. Overwatch got stale.

But then I think about what would be totally awesome world-shaking bookends (Crash, Kingdom Hearts), and then selfish picks that'd make me really happy (another Mega Man or Sonic rep, anything from Resident Evil, Overwatch)...

@OwDoopie sorry you're lonely, but overwatch is NOT a dating service, it's a game. look for love in the wrong places, and you will end up empty handed every time.

Nah, Crash is too tamed. Asking for an Overwatch character is a bigger poor taste.

@timthetatman I've played with both - I've played dva in overwatch with controller and miss 1 out 60 shots because aim-assist just stick onto them - aim-assist is just broken. it's fine to have for casual play but competitive it's gonna be a no

@Carrier1011 @MarkPlays4602 @CouRageJD Why does that matter for the development of overwatch 2 as a whole? None of the overwatch team has been affected by that whole deal, nor are they part of the problem either. development has been going well, it is in its final stages of production and OWL 2022 will use OW2

Snipers are broken in Overwatch. hanzos arrows can curve and hit you ion a zero turn radius and widow can shoot through some walls ashe is just rediculous.

I just want Overwatch to stay as it is with 6v6 and all it's current aspects the sequel seeks to fix, 2 can get canceled and I'll breathe a sigh of relief. The other side of this must be angry and exhausted with the delays. Just go on as is with new heroes and maps.

@jasonschreier Crazy to read these comments and see people concerned about the state of the game when personally I’d rather just see Blizzard crash and burn with all the **** they’ve been pulling. **** Overwatch 2, hope it either flops or gets cancelled so Blizzard can face its consequences

i’m cackling at how such a ****** older game such as overwatch manages to have less server connectivity issues than a newer polished game such as apex. sure, OW is dry as hell and sucks *** rn but at least i dont have to read “failed to connect” 200 times.

I should probably stream again at some point. It was a chill thing and people seemed to enjoy it. The trouble is that my popular games were Sekiro and Overwatch, so that's a no right there. I might enjoy doing some Doom Eternal, if people are up for that.
