    still waiting for them to fix the career profile stats in overwatch 2

  • professorsada pixie 🏳️‍⚧️ RT PINNED PLEASE! (@professorsada) reported

    but the bigoted fanbase + the blizzard workplace harassment issues + the ******* orientalism in overwatch are the reasons i'm not touching that **** *** game by a long shot anymore indefinitely!

  • Normand_Nadon Normand Nadon (@Normand_Nadon) reported

    @Me4aRZ @LinusTech Destiny 2 won't work, but that is because management at Bungie software are a-holes... Appart from that, EA games gave me issues at first, but once I linked my Steam account to Origin, from my computer, it became seamless on the deck. I have yet to try Overwatch 2... 1 was great.

  • miIligramnavy e buck (@miIligramnavy) reported

    Computer keeps shutting down while playing overwatch 2 fix your ******* game @PlayOverwatch

  • PunkARockin PunkRockin4220 (@PunkARockin) reported

    @nikuniam @Warcraft It's not even the US. So I have played Overwatch 2 on launch day, Call of Duty MWII, Warzone 2.0, and now WoW Dragonflight. Every single one had this type of problem. It's not a big deal I understand there can be issues but every time? ;)

  • VivaLaBlane Tristonian 🌧️ (@VivaLaBlane) reported

    @John_Blake_1 @DarkSoulBert @IGN Microsoft’s earnings report has already shown that GamePass is profitable. Do you think that GamePass isn’t going to have a massive influx of subscribers after they add some of the largest games to the service? Once COD, Warcraft, and Overwatch come to GP, expect 60M subs minimum

  • MartyrOfMalice molel (@MartyrOfMalice) reported

    There's no way I can play overwatch without changing my phone number, and I don't think there's a way i can fix my epic games account

  • JarredTaylor_ ᱬJarredᱬ (@JarredTaylor_) reported

    I’m switching from a Widowmaker main to a Mercy main I am the problem in Overwatch

  • jiknee niamh (@jiknee) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN just witnessed people on my team continually getting kicked out of overwatch 2 competitive matches and then not being allowed to join back. eventually when they could they still get penalties fix your awful game

  • charlesraypope CharlesRayPope (@charlesraypope) reported

    @JoystickOW I have no idea If Ramattra will be the next broken op meta character in Overwatch 2

  • TheHatredDMC NeoTricksterZ (@TheHatredDMC) reported

    @JohanzelV This is a massively made-up *********: a good amount of these games aren't coming back because licensing issues to the studios that made some of these being shutdown (and in Overwatch 1's case: servers being shutdown).

  • EllisWatterson ***** hunt 42 (@EllisWatterson) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Watchpoint pack still not working. Do you have any updates patch upcoming like including fixing that bug or something before season 2 launch .You see, I played overwatch 2 since launched and I already higher than lv 100 and I still can’t get anything I have paid.

  • NederlandseBal Pee Pee Poo Poo Man (@NederlandseBal) reported

    @Kai1ronic @PlayOverwatch The problem with this is that Overwatch has hero switching and thus a lot of the heroes were designed with this in mind. If you're playing a hero who can't deal with an enemy hero you can switch to one that can. Locking them behind the battle pass breaks this model.

  • TorshiwaseShai Raika 🍥 (@TorshiwaseShai) reported

    After all the screenshots I've seen, looks like Blizzard support says all the drops have already been delivered for Overwatch League. CS also can't 'verify eligibility and cannot assist with the issue'. In other words demanding them on tweets ain't gonna help. If you got some+

  • jalenjoneshere Jalen Jones (@jalenjoneshere) reported

    @BlizzardCS Why don’t y’all schedule maintenance for that Overwatch playstation glitch???

  • subwaylover_1 subwaylover1 (@subwaylover_1) reported

    @bakeralan18 @stefayylmao1 Yeah, like how can you be transphobic if you don't know that they're trans. It's so stupid. I'm sure none of them would say anything had they known. And even then, it's not a huge problem, it's a funny voice in overwatch voicechat, people get messed with all the time for that, so

  • takemyhandlive al (@takemyhandlive) reported

    me and dva are bffs i fear overwatch is becoming a problem for me

  • Derin_5550 Derin (@Derin_5550) reported

    I miss overwatch 1. People actually cared about that game. I consistently play with pea size brain morons who play 1 low DPS hero and they do less dmg than our Ana and yet someone still defends them. IT IS COMPETITIVE, ITS NOT WORKING WITH YOU AS WIDOW, SWITCH. holy ****

  • boundtosydney_ misa! | +18 (@boundtosydney_) reported

    @BlizzardCS Will you fix the ps5 invite bug on overwatch? It’s been a week

  • hardwick_katie Ugh, just me🥀 (@hardwick_katie) reported

    Anyone having issues with overwatch?

  • riot_cyborg 🔪Riot 🔜Holmat 2022! ❄️ (@riot_cyborg) reported

    I finally have done so good in Overwatch, that someone accused me of lag switching. (⁠´⁠;⁠ω⁠;⁠`⁠) I don't even know how to feel lmao

  • Mochiii_BH What? (@Mochiii_BH) reported

    @Palm_Identity @VoidWal38910625 @mizliz_ Thank you for explaining, actually - I've never played overwatch competitively, but rather come from Valorant, where they have GCS, which is its own league However, that is a bandaid for the real problem then, and rather ineffective. You still eventually run into the same issue

  • 95XMR do it for bankroll (@95XMR) reported

    @JuaniOW_Lop @Gale_Adelade No it really doesn't, top down balancing is always the best because the low rank players complain about **** that isn't broken , go on overwatch TikTok they're asking for cass, orisa, and Moira nerfs etc. They have no clue what is actually broken or how to play the game

  • L0SINGBLOOD icon🦇 (@L0SINGBLOOD) reported

    i hate this one shot meta in overwatch but i hate myself even more for being part of the problem

  • usafifa2014 original_SwiSH (@usafifa2014) reported

    @BlizzardCS Let me guess were gonna blame it on ddos just like overwatch 2 and CODMW2.

  • TurtleWithPant TurtleWithPants (@TurtleWithPant) reported

    Overwatch 2 should fix the leaderboards... There's multiple division 5 diamonds in the top 100. But a division 2/3 (Wich I am) isn't in there? How

  • Real_Moto_Moto Moto Moto (@Real_Moto_Moto) reported

    @cromasome @GameSkrooge @EskayOW I don't have a problem with cross play if it's not forced. But take overwatch on console for example, I can't choose to opt out of cross play and if I block it on the console the game won't find a game ever. it's bs.

  • MinnieMoonligh1 MinnieMoonlight (@MinnieMoonligh1) reported

    Hey @Blizzard_Ent I will never spend money on an Overwatch cosmetic in OW2 that existed for free previously in OW1. I didn’t get to fill out the survey you sent via email so he’s a summed up answer: Fix. Your. System.

  • ElectroWolf5 ElectroFox (@ElectroWolf5) reported

    @BlizzardCS I could use a little help or knowledge here. Im trying to get onto Overwatch 2 on my xbox but it keeps saying there may be a service outage or something. Is it on my end or yours?

  • cheeto__fingers Geras (@cheeto__fingers) reported
