  • ugl2367 🍀Jampi nevaguins 🪪 (@ugl2367) reported

    @AlexanderWhos Rn the things are super messy cause it’s the firsts days. Check if you have your stuff cause I don’t have my stuff yet from overwatch 1 (a friend had the same problem and it already solved for him). They’re still solving the issues, but there’s a queue to merge:)

  • penismommy ️️ ️️️️️️️️️ ️️ ️️ ️️ (@penismommy) reported

    @FBIBLACKSITE that game is like if overwatches worst problem, visual clutter, was turned up to 11, doesnt look bad but not super fun either

  • Ani_Kad K (@Ani_Kad) reported

    Well no Overwatch 2 for a while I guess since I can't log in at all. Apparently it's only console players getting this error too

  • lauracbaa lauracbaa (@lauracbaa) reported

    By syncs I mean it connecting to the cloud and the pop up will appear at the start of loading on a new console and it will say Overwatch 2 is Syncing... If you get an error with that, it's something to do with PS/Switch/Xbox/Blizzard and the account merge.

  • gloomcoco Fuecoco's mom 🔥 (@gloomcoco) reported

    I was able to play Overwatch 2 just fine yesterday but since the last update I keep getting error messages on both PC and PS4. Can't believe how much of a **** show this game's launch has been considering this is pretty much just a reskin of the base game.

  • LAYZ_PH LayZ (@LAYZ_PH) reported

    @BlizzardCS so am I ever going to be able to log into overwatch 2?Or will I always get “unexpected server errors”??? I can’t get on for 2 days now wtf. I even paid for the preorder/watchpoint pack. Bullshit

  • Fishisacool Michael (@Fishisacool) reported

    @RileyH0und Idk if my pc will do overwatch we'll see really when it comes to it I don't have the online service for switch so I couldn't play online

  • hjyy66666u78 Chicken nuggets 22 years old (@hjyy66666u78) reported

  • MekoStarchild Meko’s Corpse 👻 (@MekoStarchild) reported

    Sharing the same experience many others are having where Overwatch 2 no longer works after the downtime last night. LC-208 error on Xbox and email/password loop on PC. It's been about 24 hours and not much communication from @PlayOverwatch or @BlizzardCS

  • homicidate 🖤🍽 (@homicidate) reported

    Ive been lagging behind on my annoying idate posts..This is terrible...I keep playing overwatch 2 instead when i got nothing to do

  • CDGSU chase (@CDGSU) reported

    Overwatch 2 is mostly playable but Blizzard can’t fix how dogshit you all are at DPS

  • ItsAlsoAGun4 Ruby Rose (@ItsAlsoAGun4) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN I was finally playing overwatch last night after 3 days of "Unexpected Server Error"... After the downtime last night it's right back to where it was. All I get on both PC and PS5 is "Unexpected Server Error and LC-208"

  • pinkuexorcist Echo's #1 fan (@pinkuexorcist) reported

    Overwatch had the audacity to give me login errors so I'd miss the window of getting back into the game, thank you

  • Stormanzzi Stormzi (@Stormanzzi) reported

    Overwatch has so many issues but one issue I want them to fix ASAP is my heros stats. They are so bloody broken. #Overwatch2

  • the_fake_friend Victor (@the_fake_friend) reported

    Is it just me or am I the only one to get into overwatch with no problems on my PS4 like not getting kicked out and Also the streamers

  • jaden_schock Jaden Schock (@jaden_schock) reported

    Dear @Blizzard_Ent make dva an actual character and not a crutch, she needs a damage and major health nerf, I have not played a single game with her where she has not killed me unfairly. Fix your game please, just like a repeat of your first overwatch.

  • swxysgg swxys (@swxysgg) reported

    @OWAnonymous_ honestly i think blizzard thought Overwatch 2 was gonna be a flop, and i don't think they prepared themselves for all the new people returning back. hope they can fix the server errors so people can make an unbiased opinion on actual gameplay and not fixable bugs/stability issues

  • hairygoblinbun MDI - Bun (They/Them/She/Her) (@hairygoblinbun) reported

    wowie I just wanna play overwatch when I’m on my days off but they’re gonna give us a broken *** game & take away the one that worked :(

  • SammyVinsmoke FLAME EMPEROR SZN (@SammyVinsmoke) reported

    Has anyone fixed the Overwatch 2 blank title screen problem? Or am I just ****** until Blizzard decides finally do something

  • grimoxxy moxie (@grimoxxy) reported

    same thing with overwatch but the only thing they need to fix is their queue times and the watchpoint preorder

  • dorkasslameo M • Big Butch (@dorkasslameo) reported

  • RetriasTFC Ötis Jøhnsøn (@RetriasTFC) reported
