The ATST is based on the GAR's scout walker, itself an open-cockpit bipedal mech, a sort of mobile overwatch tower. the obvious disadvantage: Open cockpit=easy target, has been corrected, ignoring the obvious problem: It's a Watchtower on legs.

I feel like between apex and overwatch if they were to focus and just balance out all their characters instead of listening towards popular opinions or critics and fixing the bugs and hacks they wouldn’t have such big issues.

@LowercaseAcorn @HaywireWindgod @Lockstin Yes, but I think ppl’s issue is that they released it like this. It didn’t bother me so much personally as someone who played Overwatch at 25-30 FPS all the time, but there’s a lot of bugs & performance/graphic issues that would’ve been solved with a few more months in the oven.

@ClearTogether I have a really big issue with this whole streamer NDA thing that overwatch do, I understood doing it before the launch of ow2 to give hope and stuff but like, what is the necessity to keep doing it? Might just be me but im just not a fan of it

Overwatch 2 : Mobility It kinda sounds like Ramattra might be underwhelming from all the test plays by streamers, which kinda supports the initial problem with OW2. Design is too dependent on Mobility.

@OWAnonymous_ its less of a hitscan problem and more of a one shot problem, one shots dont belong in overwatch unless theyre incredibly hard to pull off or make you have to put yourself in danger to do so, gut hanzo widow sojourn and maybe hog and the game gets good

I made the dumbest mistake buying that 10 dollar season pass in overwatch, felt compelled to play it the last month which will only end in misery. Legit the worst part of my day every time I run it. Broken matches, badly balanced and shitters/cheaters every game. Done for good

@BlizzardCS been 3 weeks and invites on PlayStation on overwatch 2 are still broken. I’m on ps5 and he’s on ps4. It’s been a known issue for weeks and it’s been completely silent. If this was a pc problem it would have been fixed in days.

@Blizzard_Ent FIX OVERWATCH YOU ******* REATRDS. SWITCH THE COMP RANK SYSTEM BACK TO THE WAY IT WORKED IN OW1... NOBODY, NOT A SINGLE PERSON LIKES THE NEW SYSTEM. ITS A ******* MEME

@gvfx_new I don’t think cheats in other games are as much of an issue. Games are still winnable e.g there’s 5 overwatch players per team. D2 cheats are so strong that u just have to leave and loose ur rank i guess

@chicagocubchub @Dexterbear97 Which is the problem with overwatch though. If the characters weren't in the battle pass it might be better but they put them in there. Overwatch 1 any added character was free since it would not be balanced otherwise. It would be pay to win then which is what's happening now.

So once again, @BlizzardCS, my Widowmaker Noire skin is locked in Overwatch. It was unlocked and I used it in a few games just the other day, I was elated when the patch went through. What happened? Any eta on a fix?

@Ghostyb40451588 @geoffkeene its not like pros can't adapt lol. when you play competitively and there's a hard meta, its the only thing you're able to do. if its boring as ****, you're not gonna be happy. thats why pros hated overwatch goats you really said "skill issue" to pros like no its a "fun" issue

@StrawHatHiki @GetQuakedOn The overwatch balancing team is horrendous. They don't know how to middle ground. They either make a character absolute garbage or absolute broken. No in-between

@OWAnonymous_ It’s OK if you don’t like the character like that is completely fine that’s ******* valid but don’t hate the players who play him you’re just asking for a world of trouble there like seriously you’re just proving my point that the overwatch community is not a good community

A huge problem is it's lack of structure. Overwatch is an easy game to snowball in as correct coordination leads to ELIMS which charges your ults while denying the enemy Ult Charge, Objective/Play Time, and Map Control. In other words-
