Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • virtellio Virtellio 👑🦡 (@virtellio) reported

    when Overwatch 2 is severely broken (it’s not, it just won’t let me update what’s on my comm wheel and save that preference and I find that annoying)

  • SupineFPS Supine (@SupineFPS) reported

    @Em1liath This ain’t even an overwatch issue, people in society just too stubborn to admit when they are at fault so they blame others. The biggest life skill is to be able to admit when you are wrong or at fault.

  • TheHorizonsCall Kalili Asanuma (@TheHorizonsCall) reported

    @Poogieboy I did all 4 of the crash games! Love them. Still gotta do racing though. DBD is just time consuming. I was just playing it because I liked it though. Same with Overwatch and For Honor. Didn't even look at the trophies they mostly just came naturally

  • D0CT0RZIEGLER 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘨𝘶𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘭 . (@D0CT0RZIEGLER) reported

    @COVERTSHADOWS / / i've been playing overwatch since 2018 and i've had no problems calling him cassidy, so i don't know what kind of excuses people are making but it's really not that hard

  • alatxiao khoi (@alatxiao) reported

    "Client has requested disconnect" OVERWATCH BROOOOO SORT IT OUT

  • hormblende 🔆hormblende🔆 (@hormblende) reported

    this feels so ****** up and evil. i expect to be dreading work and enjoying videogames but instead i’m enjoying working on a not exactly easy technical problem that’s been vexing me for a while and feeling like “ughhh i don’t want to play overwatch”

  • katsu_70 Katsu (@katsu_70) reported

    though when overwatch 2 started i did get the glitch where i got thousands of golden weapon points so now my new account has like half the characters with a golden weapon 🤷🤷😜

  • raviolivoli Cooch muncher (@raviolivoli) reported

    @cainstooon im like immortal in overwatch but if you dont heal me ill like ddos you and unleash gamerrage

  • liv_vvyyy livvvyyy 🍍 (@liv_vvyyy) reported

    just want to let everyone know that whenever i lose my overwatch ranked games it’s not my fault. i’m never the problem

  • kzlre ً (@kzlre) reported

    honestly the weapon swap on lifeweaver isn’t even the problem it’s the spread- a hero who has to constantly swap weapons and is also so reliant on positioning should never have a spread that hardly lets him get damage from range. common overwatch loss i guess

  • BL05SOM morg (@BL05SOM) reported

    someone tell overwatch to fix their game…. im tryna play comp here

  • Seur101 Seur (@Seur101) reported

    @NyanSox Unironically Brig was the first major downfall of Overwatch and they took almost a full year to fix it

  • kfletchergray kyle :) (@kfletchergray) reported

    @BlizzardCS when i go in a game on overwatch 2 the loading screen freezes and it kicks me out and i keep getting -75% xp, it’s been like this for a while and i’ve tried everything to fix it but it won’t stop freezing when i load in a game, i cant level up because i get no xp

  • smallpagong 💗 SERAPHINE 💗 (@smallpagong) reported

    I don't use any cheating device either or piloting service so if there is a slight chance for me to retrieve it I'll give it a shot. I have been loyal to this game ever since Overwatch 1 release and been attached to it ever since. Thank you for understanding <3

  • Darknsslol Darknss (@Darknsslol) reported

    One thing that I noticed in the start of the beta was just how broken libertad are. One thing I wonder is if xdefiant will have a system like overwatch did where u can que into a class u will play as so we avoid 6 stack libertads@xdefiant

  • Summ3r_Saurus Summer (@Summ3r_Saurus) reported

    Did Overwatch fix their servers, or is everyone still kicked off the servers with the error message "Client Requested" ?? #Overwatch2

  • domme_goth Goddess Naomi 🕷🕸 (@domme_goth) reported

    Morning ******. Mamas taking a trip to Micro-center today so subs get those wallets ready. My CPU fan is broken so no Overwatch comp for me.

  • rigboi420 Anthony Ramirez (@rigboi420) reported

    @qiqi_icee @HoshizoraOW The game itself doesn’t just cause that problem for you?, I feel like overwatch would be an eplieptics nightmare, just genuinely curious

  • Masakiss1 Masakiss (@Masakiss1) reported

    Playing Tank is always painful no matter how the match goes. Winning feels bad. Losing feels bad. The matchmaking is as awful as ever. 5v5 composition with only one tank in each team doesn't work well. Rock, Paper and Scissors problem cannot be resolved. #Overwatch #Overwatch2

  • domripoo DomriPoo- 2ton Forklift Certified🇺🇲🇺🇲 (@domripoo) reported

    Anyone else having issues in @OverwatchES new season 4 qp?? Why do I keep getting teams that roll me. I've lost 25 games in a row

  • ToqueTuber ToqueTuber (@ToqueTuber) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent YO BRO, my Overwatch servers on my Pc are broken asf, I’m just tryna play, and my connection is absolute ***. Fix ur damn game.

  • MaxineLiu91 Maxine Liu (@MaxineLiu91) reported

    Does anyone know of any issue with ranking? I have played 25 games lost only 3 of them but remained the same rank ? At start of this season i also deranked if this helps? #overwatch #OW2 @PlayOverwatch

  • FIutterWave FlutterWave (@FIutterWave) reported

    @PlayOverwatch i just had a glitch that kicked me from a game cause he's saying entering game so I restarted overwatch and got banned for 15 mins

  • Keel_Switch Keel (@Keel_Switch) reported

    @PlayOverwatch i wanna play Overwatch please fix your servers for once #overwatch #Overwatch2

  • LilyBelleSK belle ✨🌈🍯🐝 (@LilyBelleSK) reported

    If you are losing an Overwatch match and then switch to Bastion because he’s stupid and broken and can melt people then you go to hell when you die

  • MyseanA motomoto 🦛🦛🦛 (@MyseanA) reported

    @Shpeshal_Nick @YeezusOneil @Nick_Marseil 1 when It comes to live service games Sony can argue they have none and need it to compete in the changing market with Xbox having cod and Minecraft and overwatch and Diablo with Sony only having destiny 2 also Sony isn’t the leader tencent makes more money than them in gaming

  • demonblade541 🦊Rakuen Knight🐲 ENVTuber (aka Alan Ocon) (@demonblade541) reported

    @MookeiVT Then used a pocket version of obs just in case one of the plugins messing up and then re add all audio sources one by one then i got audio back... It took me like 2 days to figure it out and fix my scenes and that was just for two my val and overwatch... I need to fix the others

  • Starshiptroopur ✨ Starshiptrooperr✨🦖 (@Starshiptroopur) reported

    I’m too scared to play Overwatch since they nerfed mercy coz of skill issues. Someone carry me.

  • toeffoli Toeffoli (@toeffoli) reported

    @PixelsofMark No sir, I only have mouse, keyboard, and headset. I use this PC to play COD and overwatch and all that and I don’t have the issue there. It’s definitely not a big issue, and not a top “priority” one. Just one I thought I’d mention to try and help out where I can.

  • Erk_Grr Erk_Grr (@Erk_Grr) reported

    @itsTheed @Sweatcicle Does cod have these issues? No don’t think so. Does overwatch? No dont think so. I can’t babe a single game that has as many dcs and error codes as destiny can you?
