@ickydesu Halo, I enjoy FPS' but it was the one I could never get into. I would play COD, battlefield, overwatch no problem. But halo never grabbed me like it did others.

Basically its a massive risk reward, you have to put yourself somewhere you might easily die to slow down a push drastically or halt momentum. Basically disable specials for 6 seconds in a radius around you with lag for those who don't know about Overwatch

@illusion007 Yeah, just wanna provide some clarity. I do like Overwatch art, I am not discounting their designs and craft, just I am pointing at Blizzard as the source of this problem.

Overwatch has problems it's not really an opinion and if you think men shouldn't be allowed to point out and criticize misogyny in fiction and/or in real life then Idk what to tell you

@BlizzardCS My account got reported for inappropriate name and it says this account has been prevented from naming custom games in Overwatch. I didn't do anything wrong I had this name for years it's just a nickname for my real name. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

What sucks about being a small Apex Legends content creator from South East Asia? For @PlayApex , @Respawn , @EA not to give 2 shits about the cheating issues and fixes on Singapore and Japan servers. But hey, so long nothing bad happens like Overwatch and PUBG, they fine.

@vicksteronline Only from Steam it seems. Overwatch updated just fine but I haven’t tried to open and play it. I uninstalled and reinstalled steam and when I went to download a game, the error popped up again.

The problem with Overwatch Archives is that they are unable to make meaningful costumes that couldn’t also just be in the anniversary event

@Flats_OW I haven’t played OW for a while but recently got back into and I would prefer the same event and less content for them to make Overwatch 2 so when it’s released these less glitch’s and bugs and characters are relatively balanced on release and it’s playable

Since it's mainly about Sims getting stuck and routing issues. Just have Overwatch to reset every Sim day and nrass to stable it. That's... About it tbh.

@BizarreBocaj @ApexHunter6578 @OWAnonymous_ "high damage mobile" was referring to Echo, who you claimed wasn't an issue. Fan the hammer does 300 damage and has no cooldown, and only uses ammo, which takes barely a second to reload, and Overwatch is a shooter. Barely, but it's a shooter.

is it just me or is it physically impossible to get out of masters because there's so many plat boosted support players? @BlizzardCS please fix overwatch

I been lookin at overwatch twitter and apparently their main issue rn is that they removed pink mercy Despite the fact that they made it limited so more people would donate So people are exposing themselves as just wanting the skin and not caring about the cause attached lmao

Oh right, because i didn't do damage to the smurf burners while they hid in their base... Thanks Overwatch for continuing to ignore problems w/ your ranked play system.

@Roliste Ahhh...no! A french player from the Overwatch League wont be joining this year due to visa issues. His team, the Boston Uprising, just announced that they parted ways because of that. Which is very sad and frustrating...
