@Saramonw @OWAnonymous_ yes another nerf, it is a fundamentally flawed ability that should not be in a game like Overwatch. Saying “well it used to be more broken!” is not a valid argument.

2 years without playing Overwatch and the experience is exactly the same. Broken matchmaking, **** teammates and no communication. The game is literally better to be watched than played.

That's not to say that Overwatch character designs don't run into problems, but I think Ana as a character has been beautifully handled on the whole

really annoying to me when game devs patch games and they run worse after. like doom eternal still runs really well for me but i feel like there's more issues than there were at launch. overwatch and apex legends are other pretty bad cases of this

Less
(@aim_lxss) reported
@PICKUPSHAX @person15344 it's not because you have a much larger error margin, yeah you need to predict movement, but you need to predict movement on hitscan too due to Overwatch having no movement acceleration and hitboxes being very easily manipulated

If you're an Echo main, and spam Ez during a game, ofc it's easy for you-you're not playing a real hero. A real hero is a Rein main etc. You're playing a broken hero and the lack of skill is carrying you #Overwatch #OW

@Gregsix92 @PlayOverwatch I have 7600+ hours on Overwatch and I'm literally playing the game right now as we speak. Also what I mean by broken is like game breaking glitches or bugs

@RepMikeGarcia @All435Reps Maybe the problem isn’t illegal ********* growers but rather government overwatch destroying the potential of a plant that has a multitude of uses! We need to get illegal immigration under control and get a legal workforce that is paid a proper wage working the fields.

@CharlesMittens I was thinking of overwatch. same issue though I'm not very good at FPS games when they're on consoles and I have to use a controller to aim? PC is better for that and I don't have a PC

@witmer If only valorant implemented a replay function like overwatch did then that wouldn’t be an issue. Only thing my game has on yours LOL

The One Above All
(@roosterxshotz1) reported
@PlayOverwatch For Overwatch 2 comp, can you please add a system that doesn’t punish teams who lose because they lost a teammate and doesn’t punish those who lag out of games? It’s very frustrating when it happens in Overwatch rn

@CoolCheeseVevo @Bungie It’s not a good look on bungies part. I think if possible a PTR style test server like with siege or Overwatch would be nice to have tested it with the public but stasis is a big issue

@A_Futrell101 I hate this because my overwatch SR DROPS TO ZERO. It's like server crash in Fortnite comp plus suspension.

@distortthecode When I do play games online (SWBF2, Overwatch, etc) I don't play with a microphone on at all. I just don't engage. Oddly enough, didn't have that problem playing Warcraft.

Say what you want about valorant but the ranking system is leagues above overwatch. I don't feel like my soul leaves my body when I lose. The Smurf problem is probably worse tho. #VALORANT

@AskPlayStation This happened once and hasn't repeated -- never needed to uninstall/reinstall Overwatch before, this game has been played frequently for months with several days since its most recent update. Any idea what the error code was/means?
-
So yup, we're screwed. Not the Suns though!
(@aopaderf) reported
@thehill I just want to know if they forced their Secret Service agents to watch / overwatch them while swimming in the ****! Because that would be really really bad, right?

(@anactualblob) reported
caveat, i guess, that i own mostly sigle player games, and i know it's more a problem in the multiplayer space and f2p. and again, by all means abolish lootboxes. just don't go around saying AAA is ruining the medium with gambling when you mean "call of duty, overwatch & destiny"

@raeshawnii basically the audio is glitching whenever i first start it up, it’ll crack and glitch and then i’ll restart it and it’s fine but if i open a game like overwatch, my audio will cut out again and then i can’t hear the game but sometimes i can hear my friends, or (pt. 1)

@PeachDolI @OWAnonymous_ If everyone in the overwatch community collectively agrees to not play broken heroes the game would be great but that's not gonna happen is it

@xbox every time my controller disconnects from my game it won’t reconnect while I’m in a #overwatch match. I’ve been kicked from like 20 games from my batteries dying or falling out and my controller not connecting back once I fix the batteries. #XboxSeriesS

@BlizzardCSEU_EN Hi, I've been having connection issues with my Playstation when playing Overwatch. My Internet has been perfectly fine and running smoothly but the game is still lagging and characters are moving erratically, why is this happening??
