    Part of the issue with Roadhog coming into Overwatch 2 is that he simply lacks the options that other Tanks have as a solo tank.

    @PlayOverwatch Can't login into overwatch 2, keeps saying can't connect to servers

  • BreadisRendered Bread (@BreadisRendered) reported

    This has been a problem for Battlenet for two years. I am not going to switch my provider and number just to be able to play Overwatch 2 when it launches, and I basically have to buy MWII on Steam. Battle Net is the only service that has this stupid requirement.
