  Bradley MiiTuber 🎮 Debut 2023?? (@BradleyMiiTuber) reported 7 minutes ago

  @chibidokii It’s not your fault. Overwatch was dealing with a DDOS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack. I’m sure it’ll all be resolved.

  Is anyone else having issues with their Overwatch history not moving to Overwatch 2? I linked my Xbox account so that I could play on PC and nothing is there :/

  I can’t get innnnnnnnnnnn Overwatch 2! I keep getting the login error and a million players ahead of me 😭😭 I feel like Activision/Blizzard knew 17.24 Billion people were going to play today, so they should have purchased more servers, etc. This is crazy! I blame Queen Naija.

  If u cancel and login again u can skip queue in overwatch 2 #Overwatch2

  f you (@sigmagrindset33) reported 45 minutes ago

  @VelvetFrost97 @BlizzardCS I mean it is acceptable, a game as massive as overwatch being relaunched is destined to have issues with queue times as the servers stabilise, you just don’t know the actual impact of hundreds of thousands trying to log in at the same time

  lu (@flirtxiao) reported 47 minutes ago

  I don’t even want to play overwatch until they say something about all our ******* stuff that is just gone. Idc about the server issues address what is going to happen with people losing their skins which btw was supposed to transfer over 🥴

  Hey_Karsten (@Hey_Karsten) reported 56 minutes ago

  We’re at almost 7 hours since the launch of Overwatch 2 and they still haven’t done anything about the servers. @BlizzardCS and @PlayOverwatch haven’t given any updates to the situation except that it’s an apparent DDoS attack… which is an *** excuse

  ItssMaxG (@max_itss) reported 1 hour ago

  Well, over the last 7 hours I have succeeded to get into Overwatch 2 once, and have had time to carry half a match with Junker Queen. IT’S 5 AM AND I’M STILL WAITING FIX THE DAMN PROBLEM ALREADY.

  @BlizzardCS Imagine if we could all play Overwatch 1 while we waited for them to fix the “sequel”? What a world that wild be!

• 
  C H U Y🧬⚙️ VTuber (PNG ARC) (@AminyChuy) reported 1 hour ago

  So all your stuff from Overwatch 1 like skins, level and such was supposed to transfer to Overwatch 2, but a lot of people, including myself, had their entire accounts wiped when transferred lol. Feel a little relieved knowing its a bug. Hoping they fix it soon.
