(@KILLANDREZ) reported
Over the years Blackwatch's operations grew increasingly dark, and brought problems for Overwatch, blaming it on Reyes. He decided to take command of Overwatch in an assassination attempt on Jack Morrison, which failed after a fight between them... . . .

@Overwatch2Rev @binbonbunnny @HoshizoraOW While i agree that their is a difference some people do state the obvious, even if it is hateful or sarcastic. Issue 1 still being skill based matchmaking being an issue since overwatch 1 for example, it’s getting old and people are getting mad about it, it’s why i stopped playin

@PlayOverwatch overwatch, no matter how good you are you cannot rank up if you’re stuck in silver. You cannot!!! Because you get stuck with horrible teammates, FIX YOUR MATCHMAKING!!!!!!

@videotech_ Imagine if something like this happened on Overwatch or Fortnite - companies would scramble to release a statement and then go on overtime to fix it. Meanwhile R* is staying silent like usual. *sigh*

Is @OBSProject broken? Overwatch 2 won't produce an image especially when "Capture any specific window" is selected.

@PaladinsGame Until they fix everything I’ll never play again. I’m just tired, as many veterans of this game. And stop sending survey to know why people don’t play anymore, you already know the answer but don’t care. I’m having fun on overwatch 2 now, hard to do better.

@ValorLeaks agent skins, i don’t think it would cause an issue like in csgo because of the player outlines, and teams in VCT could each have their own team skins they use in tournament like overwatch league.

@JezCorden About to delete Overwatch 2 as soon as I complete this season pass. I don't have the bandwidth to play 1 live service games, let alone 3. Destiny 2 will forever be a part of my life. Need to decide what to do with Modern Warfare 2.

@SamitoFPS If you want to have a guranteed miserable experience, playing Overwatch 2 is pretty much going to do it every game. Never seen a game go so wrong in 2 Seasons.... Season 3 is going to be a car crash.

Overwatch 2 needs a way to distinguish leaving a comp match vs disconnecting due to wifi/connection issues. I don't think I should be punished for getting kicked off my wifi network for no reason🥲

@jmeyels Hate to see Apex on it's *** like this JM. I would say I can deal with it because I can always hop on overwatch to break things up but ranked is busted on there also. I really can't comprehend how they mess things up so bad. It's like some part of the matchmaking code is broken.

@PlayOverwatch okay Overwatch, I have the no friends bug, AND the no replays bug, AND the voice chat nameplate icon bug. Can we please fix these things finally?

@tylercolp wow I can't believe mercy is the only reason overwatch has had balance problems since 2016

@LycaosWolf @TommyTucker11O @Justin_Neagle but overwatch never said those skins were exclusive and that's the issue

Overwatch is just not fun anymore man. The matchmaking is so ******* broken it's ridiculous. Every time I log on, I lose a few matches then log off due to sadness.

ive been saying this for so long at this point, but a draft pick in overwatch competitive is so necessary. it would solve so many issues in the game. it would also make balancing easier. don’t let people swap characters after selecting them.

@Xtimus @dbrunski125 it's honestly classic modern blizzard. Release a good 'vanilla' product and proceed to NOT know how to run it as a service. Overwatch was a prime example where the lead game dev/designer said "I finally reached platinum and it felt great" when I got plat after 10 matches...

@cateliny I never thought about the broadcasting rights issues. Blizzard needs to fix this now before the Chinese Overwatch scene is gone forever. I really hope they find new deal with NetEase or with someone else so that Overwatch can stay alive in China.

@ItsSomjuu This has happened to me on overwatch 1 on ps4. Never had this issue on pc or the series s. Series S has fps problems but this seems to be a bug that happens on playstation, but very rarely though.

@ohshestakingit @SaskiaPine @OverwatchCaval you do realize that metas change quite frequently? sojourn got nerfed, so why tf would people suddenly decide that mercy/sojourn is meta? high level play constantly evolves, and overwatch is not at all a solved game. people can discover broken/overpowered techs pater in the game
