    @XANAWarrior_ I used to be! I don't really have a problem myself with movement being more accessable for her I just don't like the thought of nerfing supports or characters that have different kits bc that's what makes overwatch fun and different.

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN overwatch 2 beta login error on ps5, is there a fix?

  • BreadisRendered Bread (@BreadisRendered) reported

    This has been a problem for Battlenet for two years. I am not going to switch my provider and number just to be able to play Overwatch 2 when it launches, and I basically have to buy MWII on Steam. Battle Net is the only service that has this stupid requirement.

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN are you working on a fix for the PlayStation server errors for the Overwatch 2 beta? Considering many of us paid for instant access to the beta some form of communication would be nice.
