Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • rwpeterson Bob Peterson (@rwpeterson) reported

    @Lispegistus The changes in XCOM2/mods/later SRPGs that fix the turn order, disincentivize going into overwatch every turn, etc. get rid of some of the more tedious parts of the gameplay.

  • OhskaOhska Ohska (@OhskaOhska) reported

    @GrimScotty I’m done with the cod community **** teams **** all that **** I don’t care I’m an overwatch player I don’t play cod anymore and I’m happier with my decision I’ll still support the problem I like but **** the rest of y’all I’m out

  • haikgiyu #♡ anjuu !! (@haikgiyu) reported

    I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW UPSET MINJI WAS ABOUT SEHOON BABY YOU CAN DO BETTER !!!! she was really in her “i can fix him” stage shes so happy talking about playing overwatch and the music she likes all for him to be like “damn not me”

  • burnsy_zzz Gavin (@burnsy_zzz) reported

    It’s funny how there hasn’t been any new characters in Overwatch, but yet after a year or so, the game I still completely balanced, so instead of balancing, they give us broken scatter arrow, shatter that can go through walls, and buff the cowboy AGAIN!

  • zanbtv ZanB (@zanbtv) reported

    I realized people in Overwatch have trouble holding down W.

  • FarrierTheFirst Farrier😼 (@FarrierTheFirst) reported

    @crack_bandicoot @Sh4dow_Sniper To an extent but its the worst in Valorant. It wasn’t even that bad in CS when I switched to Overwatch and am surprised a community is more toxic than OW’s. my main problem is all the young kids who know nothing about the game but talk sh!t. Was never this bad in CS’ prime days

  • Austrocious Austin (@Austrocious) reported

    @LotharHS Banning characters in any competitive game is dumb as ****. Learn to play around them, or play Minecraft. If a character is really broken, the devs will fix them. Unless those devs work on Overwatch...

  • Macmood786 World_Gone_Crazy (@Macmood786) reported

    It's actually cringey how toxic some ppl can be on Overwatch. Like it's 2022 get over yourselves. I get you might have mummy or daddy issues but acting out for attention on a videogame ain't gonna solve your issues m8.

  • HeIlbornHottie laz 🔞 (@HeIlbornHottie) reported

    you know, usually i have no problem getting into porn of a show/game i watch or play or whatever, but for some ******* reason, i can't look at LoK porn, OR Overwatch porn

  • Patrik24693087 Patrik (@Patrik24693087) reported

    @RogueCompany Stop,stop no new rogues, balance the old ones,fix bugs, matchmaking,ranked And more... After that give US new Rogue... Now you act like poor copy of Blizzard Overwatch... New hero,new hero,rework,rework. Game Is dead asf. And RoCo Will end the same way.

  • Nutquesadilla Nutquesadilla 🥜 (@Nutquesadilla) reported

    @logishere @sharktoofs1 Oh yeah I forgot about overwatch, I agree they do a lot of cool **** Maybe my issue is that apex is kinda more realistic? Idk, I feel like with overwatch and fortnite skins are cooler cuz of the bright colors and smooth textures/models

  • fuckyourprocess mikael schumacher (@fuckyourprocess) reported

    zenyatta i can fix himed genji into overwatch bhuddism damn

  • _rpflynn Richard Flynn (@_rpflynn) reported

    Any other console players having massive lag problems in #Overwatch? Practically unplayable on PS5 this weekend. Every other game playing fine so don’t think it’s my wifi

  • WyomingMyst Myst / Craig / Kaede (depending on the game) (@WyomingMyst) reported

    @cabreeezy_ @PlayOverwatch Hey there, someone in the community pointed out this tweet to me. I am one of the Overwatch forum community members who help others with tech issues. I don't think there are widespread issues going on as reports are relatively low on the forums. (1/2)

  • NaughtyBearJack Jack O' bear (@NaughtyBearJack) reported

    @zentreya Frustration maybe, Mostly for overwatch Anxiety would only be a problem if i used a microphone

  • ImportImperor D. Imperor (@ImportImperor) reported

    @KingGeorge @Pengu It didn't kill OW. It was just a bandaid solution to the fact that the devs had NO idea how to fix the game because they brought the REAL killer to Overwatch--Brigette. Regardless, I agree with the statement, but doing a PTR of it couldn't hurt

  • NecroVizual 《NecroVizual - voice dweeb》 (@NecroVizual) reported

    Therapy expensive. Just play 5 rounds of comp overwatch and be toxic. Solves your issues right away

  • EmpressCirque Bronwyn 🍑 Monarch of Peaches (@EmpressCirque) reported

    @octipuff For sure - I think Overwatch really made the problem worse too with their seasonal skins. Especially when they initially didn’t say if they would ever come back. Now they do, but I remember it took several events for them to say they’d offer skins during the next one.

  • SandyK1LL SΛNDY (@SandyK1LL) reported

    @_rpflynn Had some bad lag in Apex but Overwatch was fine last night

  • gamersagain Bruno (@gamersagain) reported

    @YaBoiRobrt My biggest problem with overwatch is the amount of stuns in the game

  • Penelopenny_ penelope. (@Penelopenny_) reported

    my problem is when i play overwatch i can’t stop

  • CaityTrina Caity (@CaityTrina) reported

    @Acnh2Spooky Obsession: ☕ Hobby: art(color pencil work/digital) Issues: depression I don't feel like playing anything rn 🥲 my fav series range from acnh, kingdom hearts, zelda, overwatch, sims, Danganronpa, minecraft, hyrule warriors, Persona, & I've a massive backlog of games to try 😬

  • techdeckin PANE (@techdeckin) reported

    @windregalia role queue ruined overwatch thats an even worse idea ,, i dont even run into issues with instalocking everyone is a big baby

  • Camhanich Cam (@Camhanich) reported

    @Pengu I think the problem is that suggests a lack of variant play styles. Overwatch did the same and struggled. Yes out of 6 only tanks and healers broke the meta. But forcing 2/2/2 broke the game. For siege you have to allow dps comps and full support comps. Give players freedom.

  • inzaiin1 inzaiin1 (@inzaiin1) reported

    @Cheataah @IceBorgRevived @NRGgg Overwatch is not broken...if you don't understand counters and what characters to pick then it can feel like the game is 'broken'

  • Its_Gandy Black Jesus (@Its_Gandy) reported

    @NRGgg Red warzone is good Val I have no problem with I've never played overwatch apex is ok and rocket league is horrible

  • Naito_Shade Naito-kun (@Naito_Shade) reported

    How can you hope to have a good sell with Overwatch 2 when you refuse to fix the issues present in Overwatch 1...#Overwatch
