  • pissbugs ceo of **** **** balling (@pissbugs) reported

    overwatch 2 is the biggest ******* joke bro they refused to fix the game they had and add lore to characters that have been there since the original roster and decided " :) a new game will fix ? "

  • BarnesFlam Barnes🐿️♠ (@BarnesFlam) reported

    did they add crash bandicoot to overwatch yet

  • miracle_mallet seija (@miracle_mallet) reported

    @uncivil3ngineer i will do this for games that are not cleanly designed but tf2 is top notch clean actually the real problem is that games that are not cleanly designed dont even let you do this because its too effective (overwatch, QC)

  • zap_flash Jonah Foster (@zap_flash) reported

    @PlayOverwatch I need some help with my overwatch if you have the time, the problem is that the disc won’t read in my Xbox but all my other games work. If you need a video of the problem then I will be happy to send one but I’m just really sad since it was my favourite game

  • CrowsWillHuntU happy hobi day! ʕ ●v●ʔ (@CrowsWillHuntU) reported

    i want to look like Marcy from adventure time but i also want to look like jesse from overwatch DO YOU SEE MY ISSUE

  • 4JMAN AJ Hammond (@4JMAN) reported

    is it bad that i couldn't be paid to care about overwatch 2's story mode? like please, fix the mp?

  • TeriosGaming Cliff (@TeriosGaming) reported

    Let's not forget that Overwatch (1) is a "LIVE SERVICE GAME" that stopped getting meaningful content updates more than a year ago. That is ridiculous and should not be accepted, let alone defended.

  • servingphish ServingPhish💛💜🖤 {BLM} (@servingphish) reported

    @BlizzardCS Weird bugs in Overwatch forced me to close, everytime I hit enter, changed video formatting. Went to scan and repair but kept saying "broken". Had to uninstall and now going on "Scan complete. Starting repair update" loop and never fixing anything. Help?

  • Oxidizing1 Michael Mraz (@Oxidizing1) reported

    @GonZo5oo0 @Spirit_2401 @TravisGafford Overwatch League has this problem. The first year's championship team was associated with a U.S. city but was all Korean imported players. No regional connection made me lose interest quickly.

  • datjarebear datjarebear (@datjarebear) reported

    Say what you will about Overwatch, it never had as many problems as @PlayApex from a functioning game perspective. Community is a different story

  • emiratesbailey Jack Alexander (@emiratesbailey) reported

    Overwatch had the most toxic community I ever had the displeasure of playing in, with people telling you to kill yourself. Plus the repetitive nature of the game just got so boring 😔 I won't be playing the sequel, but I hope for those who are, they fix these issues #overwatch2

  • Mori_Simp Morgan Roberts (@Mori_Simp) reported

    @Asensii20 @PlayOverwatch I play overwatch and I enjoy it but the one thing I feel like overwatch needs is new support and tank characters and to fix competitive

  • bassclefneon venus 💚 | BLM (@bassclefneon) reported

    I will probably be doing an unfollowing spree except for special people and quitting smash for league/overwatch. the community is just not in a great state atm and it's like watching a car crash (not being able to look away)

  • Rissy96 Rissy / リシー (@Rissy96) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Love Overwatch but ngl, these designs are inferior to the originals. Don’t fix what ain’t broke :p

  • jewstars 🌿✨IVY✨🌿 (@jewstars) reported

    @nicodelort Totally! The extra buttons on the back of the controller, and quick pull triggers, at least for me make it SO worth it. I set the back triggers to my d pad buttons and jump button and it changed my life in Overwatch lol. But series 1 had issues that series 2 resolved so DO WANT.

  • ScuffyOW Artyy ❄️ (@ScuffyOW) reported

    "for overwatch 2 we are upping up. ITS LIKE 5 GAMES IN 1" mafa said this and sees no problem?

  • BobTashh tash ♡︎ (@BobTashh) reported

    mmm overwatch 2 feeling like borderlands, time to make them all broken

  • Autistic_gay ARobinGaming (@Autistic_gay) reported

    What is the point playing @PlayOverwatch when bastion is still so broken... its not even fun or fair #overwatch

  • ZombieFlamer Flame (@ZombieFlamer) reported

    Overwatch 2 looks good enough for me lol I do think the main problem with the base game is how the heroes where designed in the first place which isn't really something they could fix now But making the game pve honestly would make it fun since the bad balancing **** won't matter

  • xvZiia zia🌸 (@xvZiia) reported

    they're literally proving that they can fix overwatch but just dont wanna

  • RogersBrie Brie 🧚🏾‍♀️✨ (@RogersBrie) reported

    Overwatch 2 not having a release date while Overwatch 1 is dying is gonna be a problem though 😭

  • HayleeMcNally 💋 (@HayleeMcNally) reported

    Overwatch 2 looks so pointless. Like just stop being lazy and fix your game instead of making a second one

  • GnarIy_GG GNARLY_GG (@GnarIy_GG) reported

    @playapex seriously fix the issue when leaving a game to the lobby. Its takes longer then overwatch dps queue and that's ******* sad.

  • CoffeeBurps Trevor (@CoffeeBurps) reported

    So uh, do we still not like Blizzard for the Hong Kong thing? Did they ever actually fix the issue? Or does everyone like them again since Overwatch 2 was shown off a bit?

  • NichoIasHD Nicholas🇨🇦 (@NichoIasHD) reported

    Anyone know how to fix FPS drop on overwatch. Last night it was running fine now it’s drops like 50 FPS
