Overwatch 2 comp is such a massive **** hole since they made the game free nobody gives a **** anymore. I've lost 3 comp games as DPS cause my tank left you'd think its lag but no one said they got hungry, one just said lol the other said nothing.

@TexasDrax77 @Respawn Last night I realized that Arena has the same feel as Overwatch but rather than 5v5 it's 3v3 & you get to select your LO. If matchmaking wasn't so horrific & was more transparent & ranked wasn't solely based on some invisible system (hidden cuz they know it's broken) it'd be 🔥

@JakeSucky You don't see pro Overwatch players GA'ing Sojourn and she's been broken since the game launched. They just adapt to it.

@BlizzardCS i’ve been unable to play with my friends on overwatch since the last patch update 10 DAYS AGO. I cannot join my friends on Ps4 when playing on Ps5. Therefore I haven’t really played the game in 10 days. This is a new game, how is this still an issue.

@CyberneticBliss @Jackithink @JakeSucky That’s how it’s different. Cod is never balanced around competitive, which means there will never be nerfs and fixes to things that help competitive play, unlike in overwatch where nerfs and changes come in to things that are broken. GAs need to exist.

@BlizzardCS How about fixing the PlayStation invite glitch on Overwatch? Y’all should do something about that considering the fact that it’s been well over A WEEK!!!!!!!!!! Truthfully, are y’all even looking into a solution or just telling people that y’all are? It’s ridiculous

@PlayOverwatch For all of us getting upset over this game wether it’s the store or cross platform or any problems or issues stop playing the game! If enough people stop things will eventually get better. It’s why overwatch is rated the worst free game on Xbox rn so put this game on the shelf

@TheCriticalDri2 Yes, out of Overwatch 2's problems, this is the one that needs addressing. It's not the unbalanced gameplay, the removal of the second tank, the way it tried to squeeze money out of players, etc. It's the fact they represent law enforcement and first responders.

@minorbone SERIOUSLY. SERIOUSLY i think they’re having a similar issue as overwatch where they don’t want to establish anything as “happening” in the present of the game, because that somehow invalidates the game itself. or maybe they’re scared fans will get mad their fanfic isn’t canon?

@PlayOverwatch Good art . To bad the new tank is a pay to win all ready broken. anyone who can read an plays overwatch can see that. Rammattra counters all tank's. unblockable damage is the worst idea ever. Rammattra has to do 5 damage a sec to balance the insain dps he will do an have low hp

I told them that I have claimed Overwatch drops without any problems so I know that the right account is connected and it should work. But no they still told me I have done something wrong and that they cant do anything.

@Blizzard_Ent @BlizzardCS @battlenet Since the patch, I can no longer join my friends on Overwatch 2. I have to spectate their game, wait for someone to leave, then continue as team to squad up. Will this be fixed soon, or am I the only one having this problem?

Blizzard fix your game, I just had a DPS who had never played Sombra before and had 600 damage by the end, in a platinum game. Your matchmaking is making me and others I know wanna uninstall. @Blizzard_Ent #Overwatch
