Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • stxfie stef ^^ (@stxfie) reported

    If overwatch doesn't sort itself by tommorow imma have to fix it myself

  • mrburgerboy Name cannot be blank (@mrburgerboy) reported

    So, if you just did the "create a battlenet account on your console" option, it doesn't set a birth date and automatically adds parental controls to your account. Which isn't really a problem if you don't turn your video game into a ******* in-app menu of MTXs, OVERWATCH.

    @shidapog this overwatch 2 login time has me insane but in fine 😭

  • whatasweatydude Edward Skoden (@whatasweatydude) reported

    Overwatch 2 getting DDoS'd on launch is kinda iconic tbh

  • Vasilisa995 Asha Skywalker (@Vasilisa995) reported

    I watched someone's launch stream for #Overwatch2, and I said to myself-An update to first Overwatch, that's what it is. And I see that there are issues. Guess a supposed sequel got a bad start. Yikes.

  • soldier24th SILAS﹗ (@soldier24th) reported

  • CurtisAmburn Curtis Amburn (@CurtisAmburn) reported

    When your finally playing Overwatch 2 and are in the middle of your first game, and you get booted and put into a queue of 4000 people just to get to the end and it’s says server login error… Come on Blizzard.. #Overwatch2 #Overshart2 #Blehzzard

    @PlayOverwatch Overwatch 2 is not working still

  • GulagKinggg A D A M 🐉 (@GulagKinggg) reported

    I call bullshit on the whole DDOS attack overwatch servers. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s just an excuse for a rocky launch.

  • NotNiceSuperman YRU$O$TUP!D (@NotNiceSuperman) reported

    @PlayOverwatch I've owned #Overwatch since day one, I bought the watchpoint pack, I merged accounts, I logged my phone number and you still messed up. ALL OF MY STUFF IS GONE!!! WTH. Fix this ASAP!!!

  • EyesofaPrince Anthony Prince (@EyesofaPrince) reported

    Overwatch 2 had a massive DDos attack. I’m gonna wait till next week to play

  • marissa_denee15 Bubbly Murza (@marissa_denee15) reported

    @Qwik It's also a huge problem that yall are not letting players play because our phone numbers aren't good enough for your servers. Truly a let down overwatch thanks for nothing wasted money and I can't even play.

  • wrysanity wry sanity (@wrysanity) reported

    DDoS attacks are illegal in most of the developed world. You have to be a *very special* kind of person to sit down and decide to orchestrate a DDoS on Overwatch 2 for video games reasons lol. Touch some grassss

  • ThePandrus 🎃Pumpkin Spice Samtté🎃 (@ThePandrus) reported

    Well, I'm in the known issues category... In overwatch, though you would be forgiven for thinking otherwise. The account merge is causing me to get unexpected server errors and refuses my password. Dragonflight better be smoother than this i swear to god... @BlizzardCSEU_EN

  • LunarSt13087951 LunarStar~~~ (@LunarSt13087951) reported

    Has anyone been able to actually get into Overwatch 2??? I just keep getting “0 players ahead of you” and then after waiting a few minutes an error message.

  • gnarly_ghost_ eri 🌙🌑 (@gnarly_ghost_) reported

  • ShrekHyper ShrekHyper (@ShrekHyper) reported

    Bro these overwatch devs are retarded. These people have been doing this **** for like 8+ years and they still can’t defend against an attack. Yet nobody sees fortnite get attacked by DDoS attacks

    Thank goodness I did not get into Overwatch 2, as I hear it has issues. And from what I've seen, it's basically an update to Overwatch.
