  @PlayOverwatch can you guys make it easier to get in because i wait like 10 minutes for 200 people to get in just for it to say like timed out or other crap then having to restart my game also can you fix the inviting glitch where you have to restart overwatch/battle net

  imagine paying for overwatch 2 stuff just to get shafted 3 days in a row with easy issues to fix. Lazy monkeys at @Blizzard_Ent dont know what they are doing.

  @NickOfTimeGames Yeah no problem! That was one of the main draws of Overwatch 2. But they realized it was going to take even longer to finish and fans kept calling for new content so they released 2 in “early access”

  3 maintenance updates later and overwatch 2 still having que timeout errors. Sheesh I was actually really enjoying playing again the last day or so but this is just getting annoying. Oh well. At least my account merge went through I guess.

  Alright @Blizzard_Ent I’ve nearly only ever play overwatch on Xbox and ever since OW2 released. Not only can I not play due to the server errors. But that $60 disc I bought 6 years ago seems to be useless at this point. Is there a trade in value? What am I support to play rn🫠

  @PlayOverwatch Hello overwatch team, I want to portray a problem that occurred to me, in the merging of overwatch 1 and 2 accounts, I don't know what the error was, but I lost all my cosmetics and I can only access the free characters, because I don't have access to the challenge

  Kenneth (@Kenneth_Iain) reported 26 minutes ago

  @ItsSucc @PlayOverwatch Yeah mine was PS4 to PC too -- I did have OW on both, but I merged it with PS4 pre OW2, and it says Overwatch is active on my account. I dunno -- my friend, Ash, says it's a bug, so I'm hoping they'll fix it

  @PlayOverwatch And people gave cyberpunk a hard time But this is so much worse of a launch Blizzard get a grip and fix things I still dont have any of my skins or game history from overwatch 1

  DeeJay (@DeeEnvious) reported 31 minutes ago

  @PlayOverwatch Hey! I noticed a problem with your game :). In the Pirate Ana skin she no longer has her bird in Overwatch 2. I will not be downloading your game until you remedy this and will actively advocate people to do the same.

  @PlayOverwatch I'm not able to play the heroes that I used to be able to play when I originally PURCHASED Overwatch. Please fix. Thanks.

  Overwatch 2 is straight up embarrassing. Imagine making an unnecessary sequel that's just f2p copy and paste of the first game, then shutting down service for the first game that PEOPLE PAID FOR, leaving them with the ****** copy and paste that doesn't even work half the time

• 
  Cody (@rebelheartedfox) reported 34 minutes ago

  @PlayOverwatch is literally the worst launch of a free to play game. Don't bother investing any time in it or money they take it happily and then give you nothing but promises of a fix. It's ridiculous and makes me ashamed to say I like #overwatch #overwatch2

  Looge 🍒 (@loogetv) reported 50 minutes ago

  @BlizzardCS - I’ve been playing Overwatch 2 since the release date… and had a successful merge from Overwatch 1. Logged into the game today to see all my characters are locked. Is this being looked into? I’m not the only person it seems with this problem.

  @dewliciouz I'm not an Overwatch player but, I just want to know if this is an issue that is about game preservation. Is it?
