    @PlayOverwatch For all of us getting upset over this game wether it’s the store or cross platform or any problems or issues stop playing the game! If enough people stop things will eventually get better. It’s why overwatch is rated the worst free game on Xbox rn so put this game on the shelf

    @BlizzardCS Can you please fix Overwatch, I can’t even play with my friends on PlayStation. And no one receiving their OWL rewards.

    I genuinely love Overwatch, I want this game to succeed. It’s just so frustrating to see a ranked system that’s been stripped of all its value. A full season of terrible balancing and sojourn not touched at all. Tons of bugs, issues, and a trash new shop system for cosmetics.

    @BlizzardCS The Shop button on my overwatch game will not show up. Is there any fix for this? This also affects my ability to redeem anything in the hero gallery with my credits as well

    End my suffering™️ (@Kyro100) reported

    Mfs wanna complain about people having private profiles in Overwatch when the stats page has been consistently broken. Maybe people don't want to see the 47 hours of Hanzo their roommate played when THOSE stats didn't get erased, but the rest were.

    @PlayOverwatch Good art . To bad the new tank is a pay to win all ready broken. anyone who can read an plays overwatch can see that. Rammattra counters all tank's. unblockable damage is the worst idea ever. Rammattra has to do 5 damage a sec to balance the insain dps he will do an have low hp
