  • JoeBoyrmd Joeb (@JoeBoyrmd) reported

    @AndreaPichinini I'm honestly sick of this **** from these butthurt ps fanboys, this will make an unbelievable difference to the devs working there, it will mean that games like crash, spyro, overwatch, diabo and other ip's will finally get made, but yea let's feel sorry for these *******

  • heysxnsei 𝖌𝖔𝖙𝖍𝖎𝖈 𝚠𝚎𝚎𝚋 (@heysxnsei) reported

    there’s a bug on #Overwatch where the voice chat won’t work or the voice chat cuts out and it won’t fix unless you restart the game. @BlizzardCS

  • Webhead_91 Webhead (@Webhead_91) reported

    @D27ShGu @nib95_ @JustAnLED Imagine if Sony for example bought Activision and made the following franchises exclusive. COD Spyro Crash Overwatch Diablo Tony Hawk People would lose their mind and call Sony anti-consumer because it would be. Those are long standing multi-platform franchises. It's wrong.

  • zackarya9272 Zakaria Hamidi | زكرياء حميدي 🇩🇿 (@zackarya9272) reported

    @hard8_times Sekiro - crash and spyro triloy - overwatch from Activision blizzard Doom / Wolfenstein / the evil within 2 from Bethesda

  • WhoIzAziz Aziz (@WhoIzAziz) reported

    @BERSERKER_THiiS @IngameHector Crash Bandicoot busy came out. They obviously do another one. Would love true crime and Overwatch 2

  • catpawhss adelaide (unavailable) (@catpawhss) reported

    @Microsoft I hope you can solve the Overwatch "Your Rendering Device Has Been Lost" problem after taking over.

  • CressOfLight David Dunlop (@CressOfLight) reported

    @TheRealGoomi @Canadianguyehh Exactly how i feel lol, Crash & Spyro being Xbox exclusives was the only thing that bumped me, it didn't even bother me they have COD, Overwatch & others.

  • BPAxrom BP🕹Axrom ||| @HaloInfinite @ItTakesTwo (@BPAxrom) reported

    @MethodicalMemes Honestly, the only Activision games i would buy are Tony Hawk and maybe Crash cuz im not a fan. Overwatch 2 maybe but that's on the PC list.

  • Mumflr830 Amer 🇵🇸 (@Mumflr830) reported

    @YungCatgirl @LucyLuce_ in a way yeah it's a problem but on the other hand the way overwatch "used" to work is if you give false feedback your reviews wouldnt be taken into account, also i wouldn't think most of the toxic people would bother doing this type of stuff would they?

  • TheSchutter Ernie Schutt (@TheSchutter) reported

    @JeremyPenter It would've been crazy if Nintendo could've done it imagine Crash and Spyro as Nintendo characters and overwatch 2 being a huge switch exclusive

  • maxsamalex xngc (@maxsamalex) reported

    @XboxP3 crash bandicoot, exclusive candy crush, exclusive overwatch, exclusive, warcraft, exclusive to many titles exclusive to it, except call of duty, guys get up and stop watching call of duty

  • rakuyoyo official femboy sylveon (@rakuyoyo) reported

    me watching how HOTS and Overwatch both died and the issues are the same JFOWBFOAJF

  • AXIOMS_OF_FATE CMDR Fate (@AXIOMS_OF_FATE) reported

    @RogueCreed @Invader13285292 @BrokenGamezHDR_ Overwatch is already on PS, will continue to be Supported just like Elderscrolls online and Warzone will, Diablo has already being announce for PS4, that won't change, none of the Studio's are working on Crash or Tony Hawk, and weren't getting new versions because of COD.

  • just_3omar 𝕺𝖒𝖆𝖗 (@just_3omar) reported

    @hanter97 So Activision blizzard with COD, crash, overwatch, and many other games Both of them doing awful because of the administration. However if xbox studios got in charge everything is going to change

  • BiggHungryPhill Phill Moxley (@BiggHungryPhill) reported

    If you ever thought that PC overwatch has a smurfing problem, I'm here to remind you that PS4 accounts cost exactly one email address.

  • NofaceTobi Tobi (@NofaceTobi) reported

    @marlisjun To actually play those on playstation, you will spend over $560. Or all future Cod,Halo,Fable,Gears,ES,Starfield,Perfect dark, hellblade, overwatch, world of warcraft, stalker , doom, fallout, crash bandicoot, etc etc... all for $15 a month. Nothing to see here. 🤔🤭🥱😴

  • Mumflr830 Amer 🇵🇸 (@Mumflr830) reported

    @YungCatgirl @LucyLuce_ they could do something like overwatch, but the problem is overwatch is broken and it doesnt display voice comms or chat

  • Aethel12_ Connor Haynes (@Aethel12_) reported

    @Scott_YNWA @TeaGuvnor I guess the fix for this would be to make some way for previous patches to be playable in custom lobbies, so that pro matches can continue to play on the old patch while the new patch is released for the public. Believe that's how it's done for overwatch.

  • twogxd twog (@twogxd) reported

    anyone else got server error ? #Overwatch

  • OphoisSon karim nawar (@OphoisSon) reported

    @Qwik @Asmongold @WatcherDev 3rd another line of commutation to answer for overwatch ,starcraft ,warcraft reforged (we still didn't get what we payed for heroes of the storm . all these games have a lot of streamers and content creators have been addressing issues and problems with no single answer .

  • RoiDesVoleurs Legion (@RoiDesVoleurs) reported

    @Radgamer420 @ReactsRenegade @ModernWarzone So they can do more with other games from Activision/Blizzard? It isn't all COD. Now they can actually fix Overwatch, they can do stuff with Starcraft, they can make a new Crash, and, yeah, they can make COD better. But they don't have any reason to make COD exclusive.

    @NVIDIAGeForce I hope you can solve the Overwatch "Your Rendering Device Has Been Lost" problem after taking over.

  • BaeroRemedy Remedy (@BaeroRemedy) reported

    @FRANA_OW Overwatch is bad and so are NFTs. There. Problem solved.

  • Wooliestcargo34 Brad Edwards (@Wooliestcargo34) reported

    @Microsoft now that you're taking over, can you fix Overwatch and it's garbage placement matches?

  • eldrexe01 eldrexe? (@eldrexe01) reported

    @aizyesque I'd rather they not add something that ruins the game/meta like blizzard did with overwatch and refuse to fix it

  • Krantzstone Krantzstone Ⓐ⚑🍞 (@Krantzstone) reported

    @echoposting @jsaiyangaming @Arrrrash Infinite may be tight, but so was 5. The problem with 5 wasn't the gameplay but simply that it was dated and hackneyed: Halo gameplay that would have been great in Halo's heyday, but FPS gaming has evolved considerably since: Titanfall, Destiny, CoD, Apex Legends, Overwatch, etc.

  • Josh2747919 Josh (@Josh2747919) reported

    it takes a special kind of incompetence to actively **** up a live service game that started that well but that team managed it so not really sure I would be proud of calling myself "ex-Overwatch"
