    We have a worst battlepass system, broken maps, umbalanced matches oh, and how could i forget? Absolutely worst rank, because it's not even yours. In Overwatch 1 i had a gold in supports, but i was a pretty good one. Now in OW2, in the 0 season (thats a real thing) i was gold 2

    Don't worry Cod fans. I can confirm, after playing yesterday, Overwatch is even more broken in terms on hero balance. I wouldn't touch it if I didn't have friends to play it with.

    overwatch has a support problem the problem is i can literally walk up to one, ask for healing for 30 secs straight and they'll continue trying to dps

    @UbisoftSupport just getting back to you with some info about the error me and others are experiencing and idk if this will help but it seems that it is mostly effecting last gen consoles. Hope y'all get it fixed soon I hate playing overwatch and my booster on siege is runin out

    Overwatch ******* sucks. Out of all legend shooters OW has the most broken, brain dead, overpowered, and just annoying abilities to play against. Also doesn’t help how most of the time you get paired up with the most dog **** random teammates possible.

    @BlizzardCS Please please please fix the server issues. My internet is completely fine, I’ve gone through every single troubleshooting, and literally every other game works except Overwatch 2. It kicks me out almost every game saying “lost connection to the game server” 1/2

    @Stefan77506052 @Thordansmash These issues, while they are important, if worked on and patched incorrectly, could entirely break the game. I'm sure they're working on it internally and trying to find solutions that don't break everything. It took overwatch 6 years and a sequel to add +prog.

    @JakeSucky If you love a game enough you’ll find a way to enjoy it, doesn’t matter how bad it is. Overwatch players continue playing the game, despite all the issues, because they have a love for the game. Same with everything else.

    @donnatroy No. Here's why Diablo IV is gonna suck: Lootboxes Tons of DLC In Game Advertising Games as a Service Given Activision/Blizzard's current to track record of games (Diablo 3, Overwatch, etc) I'm not sure why anyone would expect a decent game.

    @PillsStealer Only old deadhard was a problem and current deadhard is fair and hell its sometimes a hindrance only because of deep wound or if the killer whiffs or if you’re playing against legion, but old deadhard was a literal Overwatch Ult it’s game changing potential.

    @JakeSucky Tarkov is 🐐Ed. Overwatch 2 is a close second they can fix it I believe

    Call of easy is old news get it ******** out already, apex failed miserably a long time ago people just realizing this, overwatch 2 you can say has balance issues but that's about it though in my opinion not really and the games really fun, lastly fort the true king of shooters.

    They all represent something wrong with the industry Babylons Fall: The Live Service Model Saints Row 2022: Buggiest Game Of The Year Completely Unfinished Overwatch 2: Incredibly predatory monetization Nintendo Switch Sports: Lazy cashgrab with shallow content

    @SFurcat Watch as everyone's 5e content gets removed from DnD Beyond once One goes live, Overwatch-style. They justify it that you're paying for a live service and they're not going to support 'outdated content.' They keep shilling backwards compatibility as a selling point.

    @CouRageJD Majority of everyone out there. And there’s also something to say that even with there problems overwatch and fortnite are objectively better than cod when it comes to actually caring about the game. With cod everything is just so throw away and nothing noteworthy

    playing overwatch rn and im lagging so bad 💔

    And even occasionally logs me out while doing so. I’ve been playing overwatch for a couple years and never had issues with the original. I spent $10 on the battle pass and couldn’t even use it because I was constantly in -75% xp because the servers sucks. Please fix this!

    @SYACVG Dragonball: The Breakers had some serious balancing issues. A buggy game doesn't leave a good first impression for the 9th generation of Pokemon and Overwatch 2.

    Nah but being real, imagine being salty because ctrl+c & ctrl+v, overwatch’s new update, and a broken at launch game that’s only appeal is the WB characters, lost?

    @ModernWarzone @CouRageJD @timthetatman Overwatch 2 is the problem for me. All my friends switched to it so there’s no point of me playing or watching the game.

    @JakeSucky I wish Halo wasn't dead. It's mostly how companies handle their games. Apex feels kinda unfun with their try hard pub stomping, r6 never really got my attention, Overwatch is fun but it does have major balancing issues, Tf2 is still kinda alive but I don't have a PC atm

    @DarkHolocron @PeterOvo5 Well not now. Xbox has some of the most popular games of all time. Elderscrolls, Fallout, Spyro, Crash, Diablo, Overwatch, WOW, and Doom franchises from both ABK and Zenimax. Apparently MS isn't stopping there either.

    @ThurgieThurg @Thordansmash Warzone 2 came out 3 years after, Fortnite 2 and overwatch 2 weren't broken technically like Apex
