@JasonKe27496216 @FroggerOW The sms is supposed to prevent hackers and cheaters if hackers can still ddos the game regardless then sms shouldn’t even be a thing all it does is block some fans who had overwatch since day one from playing the game they obviously didn’t think this through

Glad that the @overwatch team did the right thing and removed the SMS verification system for existing Overwatch players. From reading the forums, though, this will continue to be a problem for families when an adult does not want their child associated with an independent number

Well, tried out the Overwatch 2 game with @YuriPopCatsan yesterday and unfortunately it got hit with a DDoS attack on launch. Queue time was a bit unstable as well as trying to get in the game. But, we were able to play and despite it is currently facing, it's a pretty fun game.

Overwatch 2 minimized itself on my computer, continued to lock my mouse in place on my monitor, and crash my computer. I have never had a worse experience playing a video game @Blizzard_Ent @PlayOverwatch

Playing Overwatch 2 made me realize why I stopped playing the original Overwatch. It’s too sweaty for me. Go ahead. Tell me it’s a skill issue, and that I’m ****. I’ll wait. No no, I got time. Just tell me. Uh huh? What I thought. Keep your ****** responses to yourself.

@JasonKe27496216 @FroggerOW I don’t think u realize how many people who had overwatch day one can’t play cause of their phone plan millions of people but hopefully that update actually fixes this cause a lot of people with common sense understand what the problem was

@biggcstarks @PlayOverwatch No one on the Overwatch team deserves to go down for this. It's either someone higher up in Blizzard forced them to release OW2 before they were ready, or the DDOS combined with a huge new player base overwhelmed their servers (which isn't their fault)

Someone help me. I finally got into overwatch 2 and I have to do the practice range. Athena is telling me to hit triangle to see hero details but when I click it I get an error sound. And I’ve click every button on my ps5 and nothing. Anyone else have this problem? #Overwatch2

Blizzard deserves to see Overwatch 2 crash and burn. It’s day two and the servers are still being DDOS’d? Nope, that’s not how that works. They just didn’t prepare. The shut off a timeless game with the promise of a new masterpiece and it isn’t even playable.
