  • shook3msalty deadpoolisdad (@shook3msalty) reported

    @LiranKaufman @XxSilverIrisxX You have to make a ticket and if your lucky they get back to you within 24hr period if it’s about overwatch two it’s a complete **** show and I don’t your pc is the problem it’s the fact they launched a game that is abysmal broken to all hell with as many problems as fallout76

  • Raitsuku Rai (@Raitsuku) reported

    Doing a windows reset to gaming pc. Hopefully should fix some problems. It’s taking days, but I’d assume it’s the 10tb hdd. Audio issues, disconnect issues, crashing to bsod when opening only overwatch 2, etc. Hopefully clean install and redownload will fix things.

  • Stephenchastai8 Stephenchastain (@Stephenchastai8) reported

    Wtf @Blizzard_Ent why is overwatch 2 not working for me

  • awfuljapes ✨Skeleton Japes✨ (@awfuljapes) reported

    Halo Infinite's meta right now is terrible in multiplayer. Splatoon 3 is rage inducing. Overwatch 2 is broken for me again. Fortnite is the only game I can play right now.

  • Mpuma_31 Mpuma31 (@Mpuma_31) reported

    So I played Overwatch 2 for the whole day It's literally OW1 but with lots of bugs, server issues and no progression at all :/ Wouldn't recommend really :v

  • KittyBean366 KittyBean (@KittyBean366) reported

    Your losing players. @OverwatchEU @PlayOverwatch @Blizzard_Ent You desperately need to fix everything or else this game is going to die very quickly… fix the problems and don’t be lazy with the updates. We need overwatch back…

  • KinoMystbleidd Kino (@KinoMystbleidd) reported

    I still can't login to Overwatch 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

  • claymorespears Whaler (@claymorespears) reported

    So far the only people I've seen legitimately complain (not just pointing out issues) about overwatch 2 have been one tricks

  • ZeldaTheGoat SpoopTina 🦇🐺 | BLM 🏳️‍🌈 (@ZeldaTheGoat) reported

    Damn. Gotta say how disappointed I am in @PlayOverwatch 's rollout of #Overwatch2 . It's heartbreaking. Truly remarkable the amount of errors and problems. But what's worse is I feel like the heart and soul of what made Overwatch 1 stand out above other games is gone.

  • KatsuneKit Kat | 🦊 Elf-Fox VTuber (@KatsuneKit) reported

    Like, it makes me genuinely start to miss overwatch 1. I would rather pay like $40 for the game, have lootboxes and my level back as well as maybe the battlepass and their shop for extra flavor. Like, there are ways to work around the legal trouble Blizzard had before w/ them-

  • TTVNerdyAJ Super Freaky Girl AJ (@TTVNerdyAJ) reported

    Does anyone ever get kicked out of a chat as soon as they open Overwatch 😭 i don't even join the parties and the message pops up #Overwatch2 if anyone knows how to fix it, please let me know 🥺

  • gothikbby wet *** hallowussy👻 (@gothikbby) reported

  • yxxngislvt Mia (@yxxngislvt) reported

    Almost 6 days after overwatch 2 release and I still havnt been able to play for more then 3 hours, and still in a log in loop, this is literally ridiculous fix your game @Blizzard_Ent @PlayOverwatch

  • lheyitsminal HeyItsMina (@lheyitsminal) reported

    also forgot to say this, but overwatch 2 is so much better when you can login and play the game. Now lets hope for the phone number restriction to get removed from new accounts.

  • Rgray56801100 ukar (@Rgray56801100) reported

    I was able to login to overwatch by removing the phone number from Battle net, try it ! #LC208 #Overwatch2

  • b2n101 b2n (@b2n101) reported

    How is it that 2 days ago, I'm able to play Overwatch 2 and not have a single issue besides sometimes having to queue, but as soon as @PlayOverwatch do a maintenance update to fix lc-208 errors, I now get an lc-208 error everytime I login. Worst game launch in the past few years!

  • Pungle__ 💀Punghoul💀 (@Pungle__) reported

    Overwatch 2 doesn’t have nearly as bad as a game problem as it does a community problem.

  • adrian892173 the tank destroyer (@adrian892173) reported

    @Brandon95562869 @PlayOverwatch But why we have been playing for so long without issue why now why wait till the second one to force this on us why not have us do it when overwatch 1 was a thing I was looking forward to playing with a very close friend I met through overwatch and she was able to get in buy not

  • squishywifey squishy (@squishywifey) reported

  • Torchwood79 Torchwood79 (@Torchwood79) reported

    After four days of not seeing my cosmetics, and constantly getting error code LC-208, my account has been merged, and I FINALLY got in and was able to play #Overwatch2. Yeah, it’s Overwatch.

  • GameTimeArt Noted Arthur Author (@GameTimeArt) reported

    Having to uninstall and reinstall Overwatch 2 for a 3rd time to see if that will fix the disconnection errors. All I want to do is play your stupid game without having to jump through hoops @Blizzard_Ent.

  • Archmage2k9 Trevor (@Archmage2k9) reported

  • SpencerJ97 Spencer Johnston (@SpencerJ97) reported

    @PlayOverwatch can’t play the game because of my phone plan definitely not worried about my protection with overwatch never had a problem before

  • cyboarnetic ⚡Dr.Porkenswine ⚡ (@cyboarnetic) reported

    Going on day 4 of not being able to play Overwatch 2. Whoever thought that sparse updates on technical issues RIGHT AFTER LAUNCH was a good idea was sorely mistaken.

  • xueleraithe2nd xue (@xueleraithe2nd) reported

  • tweetcibai zarifn (@tweetcibai) reported
