@PlayOverwatch Overwatch 2 was supposed to be an improvement. No it’s worse. The ‘SR’ ranks are totally broken. It makes no sense. Everything is hidden behind pay walls that only people with disposable income can buy, and let’s not start with how broken Moria, Zarya, and Bastion still are!

@OrdinaryGamers The main problem with implementations of SBMM is that it's often not "true" SBMM, it's trying to either match you against players way below or way above your skill level in effort to force a 50/50 winratio. Overwatch suffers of that a lot, lot of matches feel just one-sided.

@EeveeA I assume the OW2 devs read your tweets. Hopefully they see this. Never saw issue with lootboxes in Overwatch. I can understand why buying them is an issue, but you were able to get them for free through Arcade and levelig up. I'd really love that to return.

@ImJackPackage @CutxThroat2K @charlieINTEL It is, because Crash Bandicoot is a pixar, and full Xbox and pc exclusive as Microsoft owns Activision Blizzard. Microsoft only said Call of duty and maybe overwatch still multiplatform.

I highly suggest nobody play competitive overwatch at the moment, the servers are crashing all the times and many players are getting banned including myself. And even worse @BlizzardCS isn’t addressing this issue #Overwatch2 @PlayOverwatch

Maybe if Overwatch’s main competitors didn’t clobber it thanks to the F2P model, then OW wouldn’t have had to switch to it too. But hey, it’s totally ALL Overwatch and not a problem of the market.

@xcasstle @R0NINDRAG0N @FroggerOW The localization is a problem but I think the root problem is how things changed with Overwatch 1 and 2 but it's modern, it works for other games and blizzard wants to make more money. At least we get content in return so I guess it's okay.

@mechanical_monk @goblinodds in fact the biggest problem facing an overwatch player imo is the parts you're good at =/= the parts you play =/ = the parts your team needs you can pull monstrous results as Pharah just by being halfway good at Quake, but it doesn't matter if your team has plenty of support

from everything im seeing lately for overwatch 2, discord, ubisoft, game devs and vfx teams situations etc. what im gathering is that everyone loves talking about problems and acting like they care but will not do anything that costs them anything to help. annoying behaviour imo

The Overwatch 2 update makes Overwatch into a game designed to make you feel bad and stymied and frustrated unless you give Blizzard even more money, despite that you already paid full-game price to buy Overwatch. It deletes the previous Overwatch experience in service of this.

Many many many emotes in Overwatch 2 have be inexplicably altered and the charm that comes with them is lost to the broken bugs and glitches of the game. It makes no sense. It’s the same game.

@sinisterra_SZN @Halo I think the strong Twitch numbers this past weekend shows there's some hope. If Sea of Thieves and Overwatch can make decent comebacks, I don't think Halo should have any problem.
