@RedshellOW @gello_x Truth be told whatever it is you guys are hyped about won’t change anything at the core of Overwatch, which is the problem.

Anyone that still plays #Overwatch is your game broken? My brother and I try to queue and never get into a game. We’ve been in 3 different 40 minute queues before we gave up. We’ve both gotten into a game when not grouped up @PlayOverwatch

Overwatch copium/hopium is reaching critical mass. Im so cynical that i dont think they will know how to fix any of the problems currently w ladder or the game in general so looking at all the “the wait will be worth it i swear!¡” its just so stupid to me i dont know why

@BlizzardCS Any news on an ETA for that fix for Overwatch crashing on console? I haven’t been able to play for the past three days and it’s been bumming me out.

“Live service we are paying for.” Overwatch is literally a one-time fee to play the game. You aren’t paying a subscription you dont have to buy loot boxes. You dont have to buy skins or a battle pass. The game goes on sale every year if u wanna buy a new account. Stop whining.

@SombrHack @rleiper84 @EeveeA_ And diablo 4 and overwatch were announced how many years ago? And apart from the development and release dates and short gameplay footage and teaser trailers, we haven't seen anything. We don't want a broken release game like cyberpunk, so if it takes longer to develop properly

@HiJirachi My biggest problem is that the information might be crucial for the future of Overwatch Pro play. We can wait but it might depend on their future for the game

@WarnTV @pampurins There is a strange and almost arrogant tone to this comment. No, we should not be "grateful" for being told effectively nothing. Overwatch is not a favour, it's a live-service game we pay for.

@Halo hi I’m sick of overwatch but whenever I try to play Infinite, my game crashes? I load into the match, and then when I’m supposed to respawn, my client closes. not a driver issue, not a computer issue. why? I just want to have fun

@StephenSeanFord I don't get the lootbox issue, especially how Overwatch and Apex implemented it. Purely cosmetic rewards. I do see how other games that have put gameplay rewards or even characters in them are an issue.

The problem with overwatch is the men have such low standards and are so desperate every single girl thinks she's Beyoncé.

@DrKelleh That’s a graphics problem, not a overwatch problem. Try your graphic drivers first and see if that fixes it. If not… your card might be going bad.

@CassandraCota @Gilbot9000 Overwatch has consistently gotten worse since beta. They’ve failed at every turn to take and listen to feedback. They were literally warned about game breaking changes told players they didn’t know how to play then had to fix the changes a week later.

I could keep going but I'm done spamming. This is still a mere fraction of what's wrong with Overwatch. To see this game to having one of the most legendary game launches of all time to it's current state is just sad. Fix your ****, Blizzard.

The Latency and Lag is so bad in overwatch right now. Tried to sleep a bastion on Lijiang, stuttered across the map for 5 seconds before shooting into a wall.

@PlayOverwatch you guys need to fix your game. The amount of console players using a mouse and keyboard is crazy and it’s ruining it for everyone ever since the cross platform happened! #Overwatch Also nothing ever happens with the reports which is very upsetting

It lasted just 3 years... It would crash playing Overwatch and Left 4Dead at high settings at 1080p when it was marketed as a 1440p card in 2018. And I've mostly been playing Team Fortress 2 and recently GTAV over those 3 years.

the weird thing about this to me is I don't remember enabling it + this issue with overwatch and other games crashing my PC has been VERY recent (since the cassidy event in nov)

there are no "toxic" games, you people are the problem. Except overwatch, that game is inherently toxic.

Serving should not make a member wealthy. The framers intended service to be a sacrifice. Any member not supportive of an overwatch of members' investments, including crypto, should not hold office. This effort should be bipartisan with 100% support by all members.
