Yoso (streaming on YT)
(@_Yoso_) reported
@nickkrillin @Misel_here @AquamarineOW it has never been, the overwatch devs saw the outrage about the damage mercy boost a couple months ago and correctly assessed that the problem was her mobility, not the damage boost, because it's a tradeoff between healing and boosting

@CounterStrike Thanks. Still no beta, i'm grinding MM and cheater problem got even worse. By the end of this month i'm ******* out of this game, even overwatch now disappeared so what's the point. You give those invites at random, VAC is not working and MM is literally unplayable

Just my take but having irl issues before a tourney is fine and understandable. However, tanking your team because of it is not. Overwatch isn't everything to you, fine. However, acting like this shows their significance for you to not go out and support them during that time.

@FrontlineGamer @Brilliam314 @UniDaSensei The other 5 being mostly support studios for CoD at this point with really Toys fir Bob being only studio that does significant dev outside of that with Crash and Spyro. Blizzard focus is on primarily WoW then OverWatch and well after that Hearthstone. It may give MS more bodies,

(@DazaisOilDrum) reported
The problem I have with battle passes is I'm currently grinding 4 separate passes out so just don't have time to game normally anymore. Im nearly done with overwatch, but then there's siege, genshin and destiny to have to try and get through and when they're done there'll be more

@doned_itb0ye @neohhhhhhhhhhhh @realhue666 Well, overwatch took 4 years to makes 3 characters and 1 gamemode with slightly better graphics with zero meaningful changes to gameplay and when it was actually released noone could play it for a whole week and they blamed it on ddos.

@Pyrfct I always hated sniper in only fps, specifically widow from overwatch. With destiny my problem is I hit these ***** in the head yet I still get headshotted, but then again I’m just too aggro

@wholesomecoach @BS_artsss Justifications don't excuse what happened. I honestly love Activision and Blizzards IPs It's a shame I'll never play Tony Hawk, COD, Overwatch, Warcraft, Diablo, or any new Crash and Spyro games ever again. Quit crying around what games I decide not to play. LMAO

I am officially done with overwatch after being matched with an obvious smurf account... I blocked and avoided and got matched with them in the next. I'm done. Fix your ****.

I have never, with all of the other games I play, had a game crash, ever. Overwatch, Apex, CS, Valorant, PGA, anything. COD crashes AT LEAST twice a day Miss me with that "there's something wrong with your computer" argument, this game is GARBAGE #CallOfDuty

@TuffBackup Someone with a high likelihood of illegally downloading a copy of Overwatch 2, then getting into legal trouble when the online server admins discover you're playing an illegal copy.

@MARKGOW55207888 @Xbox_Series_XS For what? They offered them they will abide by them. But they have signed no deal with PS & after 10 years they could take it away & force Gamepass onto Nintendo & PS. All the other IPs are PC & Xbox only now. Spyro, Crash, Warcraft, StarCraft, Tony Hawk & future Overwatch games

@daviewizzle @foxygames_uk They can't do a thing about The Elder Scrolls. They didn't even talk about Crash, Spyro, Diablo, OverWatch and anything else, it was only CoD because that's what made Sony money.

(@Tomyself2T) reported
@its_gky @PeterOvo5 Doubt that highly, considering they pay millions for every new Diablo and Overwatch to come to their console. I mean if you didn’t care you’d spend that money elsewhere. Not to mention crash, now that one hurts lol.

@Misel_here @_Yoso_ @AquamarineOW Because in all of overwatch's history, mercy damage boost has been a problem. That's all the point was.

@JerpDoesGames I've gotten this same issue with Overwatch players. I'm getting upset at people who are probably new for making what feel like really obvious mistakes but forget I have nearly 2000 hours in the game now.
