We struggled a lot with our internet yesterday! So stream was only about an hour long. The lag was unreal and it just isn't fair for you guys to watch a stream like that! We haven't encountered any problems today so I'm hopeful tonight will be better! Overwatch again? 🤩😎

@MacieJay Its already good game, so there is no need to make Siege 2, same with Overwatch. Sadly I found this game extremely toxic, even more than CS:GO, and way more than Overwatch 2. And that's something you can't fix with "new" title.

All my stuff from Overwatch 1 is still gone. 1k+ hours, special skins; gone. 😞 I'm heartbroken. Support ticket said "We're still working on a fix but try this". "Did you try turning it on and off again" is what I feel like I was told. Day already ruined, tbh.

we all know blizzard has a problem with employees just endless problems union laws and union employees can fix so overwatch is also a very quick game anyone can play for a few hours right after their hourly wage job so lets say i have a reason to be doing this

@PhartGaming Obviously toxicity. I wouldn't say this is a problem in my favorite game. Which has been SC2 since it came out. Since it's not really that bad. However, this is a huge problem in Overwatch which I enjoy casually. Buy a game that looks really fun. T...

Person I was playing with yesterday was using ableist slurs the entire game & yet I'm in trouble. Put that with the awful comp experience, they've managed to kill Overwatch in under a month. Thanks @Blizzard_Ent, been a loyal customer for over 20 years but that might end soon.

Nothing kills the mood like phasing through people with the one hero who really shouldn't, but at this point I'm convinced Overwatch has the net code of 1hz, death with shield up, but kill cam shows I never put it up, immortality orbs and lamp not working etc etc

@ElWoschbaeros The thing is an Elo system doesn’t solve the issue only mitigates it slightly. Smite had elo, and you still get bad teammates, Overwatch has elo, can still get bad teammates. This Holy Grail of a solution Unite players are looking for when it comes to matchmaking doesn’t exist.

@BlizzardCS Still cannot play overwatch, the login bug is still going strong even though it was "fixed". Submitted a ticket two weeks ago, no response.

If you spawn camp in overwatch 2 then you clearly need to either go back to call of duty or see a therapist to address your bad childhood because you obviously have issues #Overwatch2

@OWAnonymous_ I mean, hypothetically couldn’t almost any of the existing heroes already be Jewish? That said, I don’t really see them bringing religion into the mix on overwatch, it’s just asking for trouble.

@DoomerDD in overwatch it doesnt but in apex it can feel like it sometimes. its ******* stupid and especially with old valkyrie invalidating the downsides of controller making HALF YOUR PC ESPORTS SCENE SWAP TO IT then maybe there is a problem

@GMPEREIRA_ @SilentHill You're right, that's definitely the same as Elder Scrolls, Starfield, Fallout, Doom, Dishonored, Wolfenstein, Call of Duty, Crash Bandicoot, Diablo, World of Warcraft(if they go console), Overwatch, Spyro.. Definitely the same scale of games there for sure 🤦

@BlizzardCS Hey support I have had several problems with my overwatch account, the first is my log of hours and statistics are bugged, it does not show them as they should and the second is about the competitive one, there are already 4 times that it leaves me in gold.

@Surefour In League you have a direct overview what your team is doing, you see what they see. In Overwatch you can only see stats which won’t always give away what your team is doing. I feel like adding a mini-map with your teammates on it could fix this partially

What makes the Lifeline toy even funnier is, they removed the shield like right after the toy release. Then 5 seasons later we have Newcastle that gets a similar shield ability. Overwatch is 10 times worse about this issue though. They reworked half the roaster before OW2.
