(@onion_mu) reported
@Aspharon Yeah I think there lies my issue, how can it call itself Overwatch 2 when the game isn't launching with good content? It's similar to how I feel about Splatoon 1-3. Same engine, minimal improvements or changes in general.

@Arx_UK @SamitoFPS Arx I love your content man, huge fan, but I gotta tell you that it's less of an issue if computed assistance and more of an issue of muscle memory. Overwatch aim assist is at 100% on default, and most console players are used to playing with this aim assist.

@HoshizoraOW the player count for a game like overwatch is not reflective of how good the game is considering a decent portion of that player base are returning players who just wanted an update to overtake for the longest time. the format of overwatch is good even if the game is broken

@FABI0TRP2punt0 @TaskForceNews Okay, as long as its not pre-paid. Lol they said, all pre-paid phones won't work. Its not working for people on Overwatch 2. And they have to call there service provider or go and get a new phone.

@BoBohtwt @TazmanoJ @AquamarineOW but lets consider the contents of what overwatch has done and talon and even roadhog who has done way worse than rat is treated fairly by heroes, so is that reaaally the problem .. LOL

@BryNgons He lost me at “Blizzard balances their game by making characters weaker”(so basic game balance?) and “None of the core issues of Overwatch have been fixed” (No 2cp, ping system) The first video of him joking about the bad launch didn’t help

@theMoneyFolder As someone who played class FPS games a decade before Overwatch existed, looks like dps whiners never changed. Don't blame healers for failing to overcome skill issue. Sincerely, a dps who'd heal if it wasn't for the randos' toxicity

@PleasantKenobi There were some launch day issues, but that's pretty common. What we got isn't disappointing. This was a HUGE improvement to Overwatch 1, but it feels more like Overwatch 1.5 since we're not getting any of the promised PvE story content until later that makes it an actual sequel.

I’m tired of the new Overwatch players claiming they think they know whose broken. Especially ones that had zero chances between ow1 and ow2??

Hey Overwatch how about you fix your ******* matchmaking? It's almost always an unfair match, I'm simply just not really good at this game, stop matching me with years-of-experience experts #overwatch2

Yellow Flash
(@YellowFlashHkg) reported
So yeah, if you're starting overwatch, just play tank. They are the most broken **** I've seen in the game. They have the most HP out of every hero, most of them have stupid broken utility, and all of them do more dmg than actual dmg heroes

@HoshizoraOW Overwatch 2 is a broken piece of shot - even the player profile numbers for comp is broken amd zero rewards unless you pay per@month for **** rewards and a broken game @PlayOverwatch is a total fail

@incognitomode70 @Priiiimary @HoshizoraOW The thing is yeah it’s a lot of updates for overwatch. But considering it’s a live service game in order for it to keep up with other f2p titles it needs weekly updates. Game is fire though

Why ******** don’t I have stats on my account @PlayOverwatch. Fix that ****. Also why is yur rank number so small, like ***** I gotta squint just to see what decision I am. Also the UI for your game is literal ****; why is it worse than overwatch ones?

My husband and I (who met on Overwatch) wanted to give OW2 an honest try, so we have been playing it most nights. Last night in particular it made us both really sad because the issues were just so glaring. The game is hardly balanced (1/4)

@PleasantKenobi The meta can be super tilting due to overtuned heroes and the release was super rough due to 3 DDoS attacks since its release. And people are angry at Blizzard not Overwatch themselves. The Overwatch developers have done nothing wrong and are proving themselves

@PlayOverwatch not to mention the abundance of other issues that are specific to console for the most part, just as an example: unlocking achievements on the Xbox version of overwatch 2 will in most instances immediately disconnect you from whatever lobby you are in. It’s happened to me 3 times
