    Overwatch 2 is plagued with issues right now, big ones including crashes and people being locked out due to phone verification issues. But the game itself is a much needed improvement over the original game #Overwatch2

  • MeguSimp2002 MeguSimp (@MeguSimp2002) reported

    @CITechRPM @Blizzard_Ent Not going to say that the DDoS’ers are right, but Blizzard definitely didn’t make the community happy at all with the shut down of overwatch immediately upon overwatch 2’s release, especially since this one is just microtransaction hell.

  • levy_Stormheart Levy Stormheart (@levy_Stormheart) reported

    If u are on Xbox don't play or install overwatch 2, it will not load and it will make your Xbox stop working the way it used to be, reminder don't play overwatch 2 or install it. #overwatch2broken #bug #problem

  • lilrobhornsby Dan Hornsby (@lilrobhornsby) reported

    @DababyKassidi @Amethyst_EZ @TheActMan_YT So you didn't have Overwatch 1, or didn't play it for several years (since before cross play)? Either way, it's an issue with account merging - the intended function is that you keep everything you already had in OW1

  • Gayjuiceuwu Thessiastars (@Gayjuiceuwu) reported

  • SaberNoctisV Saber Filippe (@SaberNoctisV) reported

    Overwatch 2 1- Is Free-to-play, BUT needs your pre-paid phone number. 2- Will record your audio comms and chat. (1 and 2 becomes Overwatch 1984) 3- Has the same maps, some with versions of hours before sunset. 4- Gets servers in queue with 10000/20000 players and gets DDoS'd

  • eunnieverse Eunnie @ Youmacon next (@eunnieverse) reported

    Overwatch 2 is free to play all you need to do is purchase a none-pre-paid or landline phone plan, a mobile phone, and give Blizzard your phone bill which contains personal identifying information whenever a problem comes up.

  • PixieBunny125 PixieBunny ➡️ NYCC (@PixieBunny125) reported

    @raymondcebanks Oh I've been trying all day and I still can't get in. I switched my server to Asia on the PC, it keeps saying unexpected server error. I've come to the conclusion that Blizzard doesn't want me to play Overwatch 2...
