Its kinda hilarious playing overwatch again. Everyone is blaming, telling people they are playing bad, and not being productive. Meanwhile I’m trying to solve problems, ask for advice, and being positive with feedback. Its just funny to be a part of

@RedexLCO the bottom 90% of the OW player base not knowing the basics of the game is one of overwatch's biggest underlying issues

@DpsDeku I would like to say i still play Overwatch but i cannot bring myself to accept the ActiBlizz issues. I have to the game Paladins by Hi-Rez studios that for me specifically it scratches that itch.

@Sio_the_man See but the main issue is that blizzard isn’t just overwatch. All of their games are on the line right now, and they’ve already trashed Heroes of the Storm and Overwatch 1. If they don’t save themselves from their reputation, WoW, COD, and StarCraft all die out too.

@CriticalBard Overwatch was great. It had the potential a massive multimedia franchise. People who didnt play the game still wanted to interact with the characters/world.Blizzard eroded so much good will so fast. The greatest series of unforced errors I've ever seen.

@vexwerewolf I can't wait for Overwatch to die, so we can talk about what was actually very cool from it without paying lip service to Blizzard.

@nerdSlayerG I think your postmortem of OW was spot on. Upon seeing beta gameplay, I immediately warned people it was going to have problems: They went for half casual, half competitive gameplay elements, which would ultimately cause frustration for both sides. (1/2) #overwatch

Hmm. Just checking out some twitch streams and I don't see the fishbowl effect as much on theirs, even though they are widescreen. Read that FOV is 103, which fits the problem I see. Need to work on this more as I really want to give this game a shot after writing off Overwatch.

i love how overwatch players just **** on a patch whenever its released and then 2 weeks later they just forget about it becuase it legitametly does not matter since the devs dont adress the core issues of the game

Thinking of doing the overwatch comics for a thread and the bit will be me pretending it’s this reboot of an old superhero comic and making vague references to stories that never happened like the issue where soldier 76 discovers that Tracer is addicted to *****.

When you're a diamond player and you get out of Gold on your alt account only to go on a losing streak back down into Gold. Overwatch matchmaking is broken as ****, this game needs to be deleted Holy ****

@ZackTheNerd @heavyfortres Well its not just their fault. Its very symptomatic of the games general decline. I've played 2000+ hours of TF2 and its pretty upsetting to see it in such a state. TF2 fans are usually pretty dismissive about the games issues too. "HAR HAR OVERWATCH BAD TF2 GOOD"

@annoyingaria I had this problem with competitive Overwatch and it got so much worse when I got all pissed off about matchmaking and started collecting data on my win-rates and MMR.

I love that Overwatch still has issues where the game bugs out and prevents you from moving/playing the game but have the nerve to penalize you for it? When is this gonna be fixed?

@ShittyHaloTakes @TheIshikawaRin This just isn't true. For years I've played competitive shooters like CSGO, R6 Siege, Overwatch, and now Valorant. 99% of my games are issue free and I get the social experience that I don't get in more casual shooters because developers have limited opportunities to socialize

@raptora_rapture Another similar rumor went when a certain overwatch agent was having confidence problems she fixed him right up. Just like that.

I don't know why but for some reason, Overwatch always has these persistent audio issues that crop up. The voice chat can just stop working for no reason, where the only fix is to restart the game. It's almost like Blizzard simply don't care about it any more.
