  • RandomUkGuy1 RandomUkGuy (@RandomUkGuy1) reported

    @aaronkellerOW I’ve put almost 3000 hours into overwatch and it pains me to say that I’ve finally uninstalled the game. The amount of mistakes, bugs, issues is beyond a joke. The greed that you guys show is staggering, and has killed a multi million dollar franchise.

  • fukifiknow bazing (@fukifiknow) reported

    @EskayOW Ok this is like the 5th time I’ve seen someone saying this, and I get it within the current meta of hog being broken, but putting that aside, wouldn’t it be hilarious to have big ol roadhog as an enormous statue for the rest of overwatch

  • SeraphimAnarchy seraph (@SeraphimAnarchy) reported

    Overwatch doesn't punish leavers enough it's becoming a problem my last 3 comp games have been leavers

  • httpurmum 🇵🇭 (@httpurmum) reported

    Experienced multiple afk/leavers, a power outage, and got my computer unplugged all during rank matches 👍🏽 #Overwatch

  • MatureMemory MatureMemory, MD (@MatureMemory) reported

    I need to issue a public apology for enjoying Overwatch 2 but also hating it tremendously

  • jonny555333 blah (@jonny555333) reported

    @OmuraEsports @Overbuff yeah that's an issue on blizzards end. The official overwatch stats website takes days to update with new stats and that's where overbuff gets their data from.

  • UltChimi bich of ages (@UltChimi) reported

    im tired and i have an image in my head that i can't formulate into anything resembling a joke. imagine some **** like moira from overwatch but the beams have the effect of creating problems and solving problems respectively

  • StormyJaxen85 Asher 🌺 (@StormyJaxen85) reported

    @strawberryjava @ItsSomjuu That’s normal in quick play tbf, even in Overwatch 1. But this happens because some people are just crybabies that can’t stand not winning all of the time, that or they got disconnected, maybe too much lag and had to leave. Sometimes it can take long for another player to join (?

  • DQ69429 DQuan hill (@DQ69429) reported

    @BlizzardCS Hey i was wondering if u can help me with an error I’ve been having all my overwatch data got wiped off my account when merging my ps5 account into pc account because I play on pc now was wondering if you could help me please

  • JacobCo94362963 Jacob Cooper (@JacobCo94362963) reported

    @overwatch fix your ******* game

  • brxttfn brxttow (@brxttfn) reported

    my overwatch keeps crashing for no reason can someone help me fix it

  • ventafps Venta (@ventafps) reported

    When will Overwatch fix their replay viewer? Constantly glitches with enemy colors defaulting to blue, the scrubber resetting to the beginning, friendly voice lines like "i need healing" sometimes not playing + game reports stats being bugged now and showing incorrect stats...

  • ArceusOfLegends Buck26 (@ArceusOfLegends) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Would love to play however for last 2.5 days Overwatch has been unable to be played in Sydney Australia because of poor server connections and still the issue hasn’t been fixed after people mass reporting.

  • jonny555333 blah (@jonny555333) reported

    @marsabellla @wisemove @Overbuff nope this is an issue on blizzzard's end. Overbuff just gets their stats from the official overwatch stats website and it has been really slow. It takes multiple days to update now. In ow1 it would update whenever you closed the game.

  • GgsVampire abbrevi8 (@GgsVampire) reported

    Overwatch bugs this overwatch bugs that WHY IS NO ONE ELSE TALKING ABOUT THE RAM GLITCH WHEN HE GETS BIG AND LOOKS FUNNY. HE LITERALLY TPOSES AND WALKS AROUND AND IVE LITERALLY DIED IN GAME BECAUSE I HAD TO STOP AND LAUGH AT IT

  • Seraphic6Wings Seraphim🔞 (@Seraphic6Wings) reported

    I love seeing the little "You're being penalized" message after getting booted from a match in Overwatch because of the ******* lag. Why ******** do I get punished when they're the ones putting me in servers across the ******* world?

  • _primey Brian (@_primey) reported

    I'm having such weird problems with Overwatch 2 tonight

  • atom1cbonsai vee (@atom1cbonsai) reported

    i think overwatch should add an option to make the title screen shut up i hate nothing more than opening the game and hearing LWPHPKRKRRRBRBBRBRBRB OOOOAHHHHHHHHH RRRRRRRR (CAR CRASH NOISE) BANG ABNG BANG BANG BRBRBRBR

  • RandomUkGuy1 RandomUkGuy (@RandomUkGuy1) reported

    @OhReallyJared As someone that’s put close to 3000 hours into overwatch, I’ve finally reached my limit and deleted the game. Aside from the plethora of issues and bugs since launch, the entire model of OW2 is just pure greed, trying to get as much as you can by doing as little as possible.

  • Liambjo Liam Bjonness (@Liambjo) reported

    Does anybody know how to transfer overwatch 2 ping priority to a specific player? There is a majority of the lobby type that we do not want and I was wondering if there was a way to fix it.

  • chonlozhng potter 🦑 (@chonlozhng) reported

    @BlizzardCS I bought 26 dollar worth of Overwatch League Tokens and they have not appeared in my account. Is this a problem on Xbox's end or the game? Xbox said my purchase was processed so I'm confused as to why the tokens have not appeared in my account. Do I need to wait or..?

  • RoseGol420 Rose 🥀 (@RoseGol420) reported

    not being able to play overwatch, CSGO or Valorant in the last couple days is ******* killing me. I wanna play the new mode and buy the new bundle and try the new map holy **** why did my pc have to have issues right when all the cool stuff happens

  • eendFPS eend (@eendFPS) reported

    Its so sad that Overwatch is being updated now by like maybe 80 ish underpaid people @XboxP3 plz Fix when you take over Blizzard because this is kinda sad

  • SapphireSiege_ AF | 𝓢𝓐𝓟𝓟𝓗𝓨 (@SapphireSiege_) reported

    I love how most people are always bitching about supports being problematic in overwatch and complaining so much. Like if supports are that much of a problem for you, I guess that means you're just 2x as bad. Supports are not buffed, they are literally still bad. -Cont.

  • z3lkbaby z3lkbaby;p (@z3lkbaby) reported
