Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • PynkLadyy Alliegator (@PynkLadyy) reported

    Overwatch players could never play The Sims 4. The game is so glitchy and broken and it never gets fixed.

  • mdame_69 MDAME69 (@mdame_69) reported

    I know at this point it's probably more of a pc problem on my end, but like seriously ? how come overwatch 1 ran just fine and with the same exact settings. Ive been doing this trial and error process since the beta, I still haven't even played the game

  • TaxlonTrxcer Lena Oxton. (@TaxlonTrxcer) reported

    @Moicy_ Is this truly the best idea for them ? Overwatch hunting Lena after they left her to die ? Talon trying to take down Overwatch . They could get into trouble for merely talking to each other .

  • PynkLadyy Alliegator (@PynkLadyy) reported

    Overwatch players could never play Sims 4. They will literally release game breaking DLC and then just never fix it. Overwatch players would combust

  • ayoub_bensalim ayebe (@ayoub_bensalim) reported

    @PlayOverwatch I only got one issue to adress, yes i know that overwatch 2 needs the money to keep going but why shouldn't we overwatch ogs get at least first premium battlepass free or some game currency

  • AngelDeadRose Angel Dead Rose (@AngelDeadRose) reported

    So apparently the servers should be back up running, but will still have problems. Guess tomorrow Overwatch 2 servers will be worked on again for my area. 👀

  • fnafinreallife lilith (@fnafinreallife) reported

    @bigunc2109 get in discord overwatch is using 100% cpu n im trying fix it gimmie like 5

  • BillyBob3D Billy Richert (@BillyBob3D) reported

    my @PlayOverwatch has had problems since Overwatch 1 where I just randomly disconnect during from the servers mid match. sometimes I reconnect but sometimes I have to log back.

  • SomeTheatreKid Mitch Chase (@SomeTheatreKid) reported

    Bruh I just wanted to try Overwatch 2, is being stressed out in trying to login part of the experience?

  • BrightsideFPS Brightside | Josh 🌻💙 (@BrightsideFPS) reported

    Of course it sucks having to pay for your cosmetics and they are pretty pricey, yes. But Valorant, Apex, Fortnite etc. have been doing it for years now. Now that Overwatch does it it's a problem all out of a sudden?

  • digitalAIngel ♡( ◡‿◡ ).。.:*❀ (@digitalAIngel) reported

    ai art bros are so horny and lazy they just conjure images of big tiddy cottage mommies and it’s literally the most rendered amalgamation of piece of **** overwatch porn or contrived mashups of stolen art and they don’t even go into fix the obviously ****** anatomy

  • chri_hin Christian (@chri_hin) reported

    Of course the Overwatch servers go to **** when I get a ******* quad kill. Fix yo servers @PlayOverwatch

  • penzochun pugs (@penzochun) reported

    @CaptEggcellent 3 ranked games lost because we get people leaving because of the glitch then they can't rejoin Overwatch need to fix this ****

  • StinkyBadger77 Griffin Murray (@StinkyBadger77) reported

    @PlayOverwatch also please fix The server disconnect that tells you disconnected from game profile signed out when I am clearly still connected to Xbox live because I can play other games. This only happens on overwatch so please fix this tomorrow with tomorrow’s update thank you

  • Spargsy 🎃 Spooooksy 👻 💙💛 (@Spargsy) reported

    @Aersirma @Metro_OW Oh I do play different games lol. Overwatch doesn’t hold much interest to me other than occasionally hopping on with friends. But that’s now an issue. I can’t casually hop on with friends if we’re doing crossplay so now I’m even less likely to hop on than I already am lol.

  • WATCHERE2904 WATCHERE (@WATCHERE2904) reported

    No shot all these PC OW players are saying don't give console players aim assist IN QUICKPLAY. Hell even if it were in comp it wouldn't be broken. Hands down no doubt mnk is superior to a controller on Overwatch. The reason why aim assist has bad rep is because of other games

  • therunefox Runefox 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 (@therunefox) reported

    Overwatch is still the most frustrating game I have ever played and after one hour of online play wherein every match was a loss while being forced into a single role on match start, with lag and janky hitboxes, I do not want to play anymore. Wake me up when PvE is a thing.

  • RoyalGeekz Usagi ✨ BunTuber | SLEEPY ARC (@RoyalGeekz) reported

    Is this week kinda bad luck? Or god is pulling on my toes..? The whole neighborhood power decided to cut out mid Overwatch comp, LIKE BRUH...!? 😭 WHOEVER OR WHATEVER CAUSE THE ELECTRIC OUTAGE, IM SHOVING YOU UP MY AS- 😡

  • Incompetenttttt Incompetent 🍥 (@Incompetenttttt) reported

  • Basik_px Basik (@Basik_px) reported

    @MRW_SSB Unfortunately I don't think there's ever any hope to fix Overwatch

  • MRW_SSB MRW @ Metafy (@MRW_SSB) reported

    Yep 3 days in Overwatch and I’m already over it. No mics in comp no one is good Zarya and Orisa are broken this game sucks

  • rfloufi E.A Respunch not partner (@rfloufi) reported

    @Thordansmash Instead of making an Apex 2.0 on pc console they made an Apex 2.0 on mobile funded by billions of dollars of benefits made on the old broken Apex 1.0. EA RESPAWN are lazy and greedy hope MW II, WARZONE 2 overwatch 2 or other games will take out a lot of players from Apex

  • EzekielOrro Ezekiel Orro (@EzekielOrro) reported

    @MrElectricNick @LogPowerslave Overwatch 2 has been fun, but I agree with this absolutely, there are way too many unresolved issues within the company and the cases against them that makes the game feel like a very big smokescreen. Unfortunately for them this is the digital age and we have the internet.

  • ifitsnotfun1 If It's Not Fun (@ifitsnotfun1) reported

    @Negrosis2049 People acted like they cared but then all those spineless worms got overwatch 2 on day one; to play or to stream, and few gave a **** or at least talked about the issues. I genuinely can’t see a good reason for playing that game whatsoever

  • greendaylover45 Getaway Driver (@greendaylover45) reported

    it’s so funny how people are arguing whether or not overwatch 2 is bad when i was able to identify every problem with that game in under an hour on launch day

  • KingDooDooFart NLSGR 💙🤍💛 (@KingDooDooFart) reported

    Been banned for the whole of overwatch 2 season 1 this game is a piss take I haven’t left a single game yet I’ve just been unlucky and had **** power fix your game @Blizzard_Ent

  • Juls_Martin03 Juls Martin (@Juls_Martin03) reported

    @PlayOverwatch hey, so i've been playing OVERWATCH since the first game but when i downloaded OVERWATCH 2 i didnt got the founders pack and also my origins skins got deleted... is it a common thing? Are you guys gonna fix it?

  • Whylamar20x “Yeah metro boomin make it boom” (@Whylamar20x) reported
