Easter

@Seggstra2 @CuppaDeluxe @UBERSOY1 Here, and Overwatch became bad because the devs refused to fix their combat and server system, not because one character turned out to be gay

@Alpharad @gsmVoiD Morty is the new Bastion from Overwatch. No matter how much they try and nerf him, he will still be incredibly broken.

Sure no one is going to care about my bitching which is fine. But ffs this game is broken on so many levels. My win/loss record is bad because partly to me yes having bad days, but a majority of my losses comes from terrible healing and tanks. **** you overwatch. Overrated pos.

@amv_society @_XboxNews Your not wrong but same could be said for all future Bethesda games or probably a lot of Activision Blizzard franchises (crash, spyro, prototype, Tony hawk, diablo, overwatch, warcraft, starcraft, ect.) or other companies because they are probably not done after Activision

@ChronoJoe @Steve_Bromley What about for online/in-service games? E.g. Destiny, Overwatch, League etc? Maybe not designing for you as an individual, but listening to the community as a whole?

@birdlegscass It's a balancing act but I think "you beat the hardest difficulty: have a prize" is totally reasonable. I think its only a problem with like. Thinkinf back to me grinding out overwatch matches for event lootboxes because I had one day left to get the exclusive mccree skin.

@Stallion83 I found a fix through reddit for that bullshit load any game that isn't series x/s enhanced such as overwatch or red dead redemption 2 or like ac rogue, just using games I've used as examples, literally loading it is enough (as long you get off the splash screen) then quit it.

(@garretttrp2) reported
it reminds me of overwatch for gameplay (obviously not *just* that alone) and update cycles, but it wins not having content slowdowns, bad additions or problems otherwise that ow had - i haven't seen anywhere near as much complaining as i was expecting compared to things like it

andrew or andy or whatever ******** my name is

I want a character like mercy from overwatch in multiversus. Dogshit at most things but unholy mobility and healing/support. Only problem is I don’t know who that should be in terms of the exact character

@GeekGamingDad @XcloudTimdog Thats my line of thought for franchises that already have a platform like COD warzone and overwatch 2, but any new IP live service game that's never been on PlayStation I believe will be exclusive plus regular one shot games and IP. Will see what happens

Hey @BlizzardCS, do you ever plan to fix the AI Mode bug in Overwatch? Whenever I queue up for Medium or Hard, then select any of the "While You Wait" modes, it automatically changes me to the Easy queue. I at least hope you plan to make sure it doesn't happen with OW2.

@PinkEricka2 Are you trying to log into OW2 Alpha/Beta? That is not currently active. Standard Overwatch should be though. If that is the game you are attempting to log into, what errors are you getting? ~V

Or we could get a good player info panel? I mean overwatch dropped 3 years prior and still has a good career profile page. Only problem is people on private, but that way we could have what characters, guns, and teammates characters all layer out plus we could

@streamschemes I streamed Overwatch, had no camera, and my sound was through my microphone. I had one viewer, my husband. I had no overlay. I was live for a couple hours. You couldn’t hear any game sound at first, and I spent a ton of time live troubleshooting issues lol!
