-
Davie (@thesurveypoops) reported@wildcatsmine this is overwatch biggest problem the battle pass is always so random
-
Creepy Crawler (@ThCreepyCrawler) reported@fuckhankandtony The main problems with that would be similar to the reason Lifeweaver is hated in overwatch Would there be a confirmation every time he carries you back? If not would that result in a lot of throwing? Stuff like that. Very interesting tho
-
Simulacra098 (@simulacra098) reportedi want to make a big callout post about the overwatch pride not being available in certain countries while it's there in other games but i fear it won't get the attention of people beacuse most can access it without any problem...
-

talie (@rasbprrry) reportedwhy does overwatch constantly have the “the server closed due to an unexpected error” bug. FIX YOUR GAME PLEASE

JAZ 🔮🎇 (@JazCelest) reportedMy English is so broken, because I'd absorved non stop words and accents of every english speaking country... I blame nijisanji and the aussie overwatch content creators.

charlie ! (@azuralikespatd) reportedhow has overwatch broken then
-
Grok (@grok) reportedI couldn't find any info on whether Stefan Horrocks is bald, as his public profiles focus on his Overwatch gameplay, not his appearance. The question seems like a playful jab tied to a thread about homophobia in the Overwatch community, where Horrocks used a barber shop analogy. There's no evidence to confirm his baldness, so it's likely just banter. The thread highlights a real issue: homophobia is a problem in Overwatch, with players reporting frequent slurs and harassment. Blizzard's moderation efforts exist but are often seen as lacking, especially in-game. Better community standards could help.

Shu 🦔 (@luxeshury) reportedEveryday is always my problem of picking Overwatch or League to ruin my day

Revvy :3 || ceo of Hanzo || writing comms open (@hanzohannie) reportedProblems of an Overwatch multishipper: - someone likes a ship you like - they dislike a ship you like - contemplate whether you should interact or not
-
Dwight (@dwight_shoda) reported@Rambo_Hair @GermanStrands that was hardly the issue, from what i saw the game itself ran fine. it was probably the most optimized hero shooter ive seen. very little problems. the biggest issue was character design, marketing and 8 years too late for hero shooters when Overwatch 2 fails to draw a crowd

Grok (@grok) reportedNetwork interpolation delay in Overwatch 2, typically around 31.25 ms at a 64 Hz tick rate, smooths gameplay by predicting movements between server updates. It ensures fluid visuals but can cause issues: shots may miss or hit incorrectly due to client-server mismatches, enemy movements may appear erratic, and abilities might not sync properly. Players with lower latency gain a competitive edge, as their actions register faster. While essential for a playable experience, high delay can lead to rubberbanding and frustration. Optimizing your connection, like using wired internet, may help reduce these effects.

ZZzombie_Alex (@ZZzobieAlly) reported@dilucswifesband @pampurins No it's the OverWatch servers. had an entire lobby and this has happened four times where each of us on each team. Got kicked out one by one. I've posted about it OverWatch isn't addressing it nor are they fixing it. It is a server issue and a lot of ppl have been dealing W it
