@GameSpot Underlying anger problems. Has nothing to do with overwatch or being gay. Could've been any argument or any couple. The tragic part is that they were together for 10 years. I can only imagine what happened over those 10 years to lead to this.

So I just bought a new monitor, it's AMAZING, especially with the fact that I went from a 60 hz monitor to a 240 hz one but the only problem is that I can't play on full-screen on overwatch, it only works for borderless windowed. Anyone got a solution for this or is it normal?

@PlayOverwatch why would i ever want to buy Overwatch 2 when you can’t even fix Overwatch 1 to begin with. SMH. Fix a game before putting out a new one.

If you’re not going to release Overwatch 2 or fix the game, at least give us more avoid slots.

@TakeTheLeg @DarthChillash One of my friends said his controller had a drift problem but he fixed it. He plays Overwatch like a madman so he wore that **** out.

@ItsWashington17 @Canadianguyehh I honestly don't get this mindset personally. Like, I get it, Activision is scum. But the money they'd make off of Spyro, hell the money they've made off of Crash is chump change compared to COD, WoW, and Overwatch. Plus, ABK is the guilty party here, not TFB.

@PaulTassi Yeah abandoning Overwatch 1 to make a sequel instead of just continuing to support and make OW1 a long term service game was a big mistake imo In April it will be 2 years since Overwatch 1 has gotten a new Hero or any meaningful new content. 2 years. They just.....killed it

@B3am4H311 I had the same problem in a ranked game yesterday cause I wanted to try it out. I told the team idk how to play tank, they force me to play tank, so I threw their game. I prefer overwatch system to being able to choose roles so you know what you’re getting into.

@asakosblog I think this article is malicious intent, that man clearly has mental issues that led to this, no one will commit murder suddenly over a video game argument and the writer knows naming overwatch will direct the issue to the game and not what truly matters.

@bear_nugs @GameSpot No way you just said "this is what happens in overwatch". How much you tilt is entirely dependent on yourself. The fact that this crime occurred is not because of overwatch its because some dude had some issues and decided murder was an option.

People blame Battlefront 2 for the whole Lootbox problem but lets not forget when Overwatch first came out everyone's YT feed was FLOODED with opening videos. Content Creators were spending thousands on lootboxes and a majority of people ate that **** up.

It's sad to see Overwatch getting as Roasted as WoW nowadays and they don't even need the Blizzard company issues to get so roasted lmao. Worse part is I wouldn't even defend OW anymore after their asinine handling of the IP the last months.

Yes Im still upset about how shafted Battleborn got. Yeah it had its problems but it could have been something cool. What happened? Well Blizzard happened. They picked the exact day Battleborn launched to release the public beta for Overwatch. This basically killed all hype.

Spot the difference "Im going to go play overwatch" "I going into mental warfare" *Hint* there isnt Sad to see this game be butchered by its balance team, the first time they change the game in ages and then fail to acknowledge the main issues with the game while breaking it too

Overwatch is so weird. I'll get 5 losses in a row because my team is obviously disorganized and is unsure how to fix it. But then I'll get a random tank that is in upper bracket for damage and just carries ******** out of us. I don't understand lmao

Legit I basically quit Apex & moved on to DBD. I still play overwatch too bc the servers actually work still unlike Apex. That game has so much potential but is broken af. I don't regret the money I spent but I wish EA would make it actually playable 🙃
