  • SheezyTree Sheezy Tree (@SheezyTree) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Serious problem, My internet crashes during ranked game, I fix it quickly while friends are still in the game, try to reopen overwatch and can’t past the login screen no matter what, get bannned and lose for not being able to literally open the app after crashing

  • AlphaWolfDagron Alpha Wolf 🐺 Dagron 🐲 (@AlphaWolfDagron) reported

    @WarnTV I don't just mute text and voice chat, I mute the audio entirely for Overwatch and my PC. Then I disconnect my monitor so no audio or video gets in the way of me helping my team.

  • notacatgirly notacatgirly (@notacatgirly) reported

    @Surefour just leave overwatch alone :( it is broken enough now

  • miip_95 addi 🏴‍☠️🏳️‍🌈 (@miip_95) reported

  • ichiiixs Ianna (@ichiiixs) reported

  • mattstat7160 MattisticStatistic (@mattstat7160) reported

    @KeysaTrii @RustyPickle115 That's the problem with multiplayer games Overwatch being the primary example of this I do think that Wahoo World is a bad stage objectively, but you can absolutely still like it. Same with inking spawn - I'd prefer you do it after respawn, but if you do it at the start, eh.

  • PlattypusA plattyy (@PlattypusA) reported

    why is genii getting a nerf #overwatch if u think genji is op it’s literally a skill issue cant wait for sojourn buff because kids cant use her

  • DontAraAraMe Don't You Ara Ara ME, young lady! (@DontAraAraMe) reported

    obviously if their chuds were alphas and could make a woman ****** we wouldn't have this problem. I'd have 6 more overwatch accounts if they were capable of making females ******, lol.

  • DjankeyUnkanged DankeyKang (@DjankeyUnkanged) reported

    @DissonantJohnny 100%. I was a part of an Overwatch group that would grind comp, practice in QP, etc. I got called narcissistic because I kept talking about myself (trying to relate) when other people in the group were talking about their problems. It fell apart. We used to play daily for months.

    How to fix overwatch 2: if DPS mains go below a certain kill/dmg threshold average they are deprioritized or locked out of the category for a period of time

  • PaulEastlondon Paul Williams (@PaulEastlondon) reported

    @OverwatchEU can you please fix, removed from group chat error when joining. Every time I join it I get removed not by team mates but by overwatch

  • Chimpmaster3000 Mike A (@Chimpmaster3000) reported

    Weird that Overwatch 2 was ok the first 10 days but this week latency and IND make it impossible to play for me. Hopefully it’s another issue @PlayOverwatch are addressing….

  • Hooch_HK ProGambitPlayer (@Hooch_HK) reported

    @executivepsycho @Nidus89964082 @Gleaux How is it a different issue? SBMM restricts the players you match make with thus leading to inconsistent games connection wise. I play Overwatch and I don’t have a problem with SBMM at all. Connection is key.

  • Tylerjwaiteyt Tyler Waite (@Tylerjwaiteyt) reported

  • twalls29qrm Tony (@twalls29qrm) reported

    @ArylinMarie That’s an overwatch problem. They made it so. Crooks. My humble opinion

  • Lunar_ZM • 𝘓𝘶𝘯𝘢𝘳_𝘡𝘔 (@Lunar_ZM) reported

  • ethankleinnn Ethan Klein (@ethankleinnn) reported

    @BlizzardCS So all of my stats are incorrect, nor do they update. Everything was correct when I first loaded in Overwatch 2 but after I played a a couple of matches my stats changed. More than once. They have remained the same for a while now. Still incorrect. Is there a fix?

  • notacatgirly notacatgirly (@notacatgirly) reported

    @iNKDaddyTTV @chankalator @Surefour people will stop at nothing until overwatch is just so broken

  • IFOnlyYT IFOnly (@IFOnlyYT) reported

  • ImDiabetus Alex (@ImDiabetus) reported from Reynoldsville, Pennsylvania

    @DigitalHitmann So are the stats broken then? Cause I only see my Overwatch 1 stats. None of my Overwatch 2 stats show up in the profile

  • yunicycle Yunus Butt (@yunicycle) reported

    @PlayOverwatch is there a reason why overwatch 2 is unplayable on the PS5. The lag that people are experiencing is unreal!
