  • cemeteeryy cemetery (@cemeteeryy) reported

    overwatch is going to decay sooner than later if it does not get its stuff together.. the matchmaking is completely broken, SMURFING IS STILL A MASSIVE ISSUE and the game still feel stale. they learn nothing from their past mistakes #Overwatch2

  • KalanVTuber Kalan Miizure // Certified Gamer Daddy (@KalanVTuber) reported

    I really wanna play some Overwatch, but it's a struggle with my broken chair. I have one on the way, though so I should be able to play some OW next week without sitting awkwardly. Also joined a privater server for Twin Saga since they took down the global version. 👀

  • The_1_Orange The_1_Orange (@The_1_Orange) reported

    The "Inflated SR" problem in Overwatch isn't due to the new ranked system, it's due to the number of new and old players coming back. In order to gain SR, you have to take SR, thus there is more people to take SR from.

    @bayleefmaster @Wario64 of true solo. The battle pass/live service doesn't bother me. I have the fortnite , overwatch 2, fall guys,multiversus, etc. I like live service gamea but this particular game I think it's gonna be it's downfall.

  • KaizenWasTooken Kaizen (@KaizenWasTooken) reported

    @some_zelda_nerd Before you kill me I've only played Overwatch from that 1 Game Trial Nintendo Switch Online had so I don't know if Mei is insanely broken or not 💀

  • AzureEnjoyer69 Azure#1859 ➡️⬇️↘️ (@AzureEnjoyer69) reported

    @MegZX4_ all of which crash, freeze often, or run at like 2 fps. by some miracle of pc gaming, overwatch 2 and ffxiv run ar a stable 60 fps for reasons i cant comprehend

  • BigTendiez HIMalayus (@BigTendiez) reported

    My main issue with Overwatch is that it’s not enough enemies to kill lmaoooo. Something slightly underwhelming about killing 3/5 of the enemy team even though that’s 🔥 technically speaking

  • Lento1z Lento1z (@Lento1z) reported

    From m4 to d1, but how is that possible. I have games now with people that don’t even know how to play… it’s terrible pls overwatch fix this

  • StrangeoSyndro StrangeoSyndro (@StrangeoSyndro) reported

    @TeslaSciences @TheSobaMask Problem is we all did this we complained about Q's in Overwatch 1 now we have no queues really. The phrase, "Be careful what you wish for" is appropriate here. We've been had. We've been had by ourselves

  • oaktrea 💜ᴏᴀᴋɪᴇ💜 (@oaktrea) reported

    Overwatch server error just saved my ******* life omg

  • quagsired rat miki (@quagsired) reported

    I’m just mad I never fixed my cpu problems with overwatch I CAN PLAY ANY OTHER GAME THOUGH???!!

  • llamaemilia Renaissance Era (@llamaemilia) reported

    Man leavers in comp is a huge problem in ovw2 like even worse than overwatch 1

  • TheLonely_Wolfy Lone Wolf (@TheLonely_Wolfy) reported

    @BasmanCape @BayzedDionysus @DeminoTheDragon BP have always been cosmetics my boy, the problem is that they are causing a lot of problems by making exclusive things, causing the player to not let play anything else because you need to unlock everything of the BP. Ex: I have the BP of Fortnite, Overwatch and Halo…

  • BlazeballThomas slowdown1990 (@BlazeballThomas) reported

    @JohnnyOmegaManX @cheesgulp29118 @EWEPart2 and it doesn't matter if it's over a "lego" game. it's still a game. yougo play COD,or even overwatch or whatever you play and someones using exploits on you? you wouldn't be like "Oh this isn't a huge problem". you would most likely mald or report the person and get em banned.

  • AbyssStaring Angry Bi Enboy (@AbyssStaring) reported

    @little_lizzie22 "It is immoral to ship Hammond the hamster from Overwatch with Winston the gorilla from Overwatch because Hammond is fourteen." Nevermind the logistics of shipping a hamster and a gorilla; the problem is that the hamster is underage. Irl hamsters living 2-3 years notwithstanding.

  • TaviPM_ Content Creator Tavi (@TaviPM_) reported

    @AquaticFGC That kind of thing used to happen tk me in overwatch a long time ago, it ended up being a graphics card issue

  • SWIFFTKID SWIFFT (@SWIFFTKID) reported

    @Lerman_Levi @iFireMonkey I've seen a few different theories, one of them being that a spray tied to the skins was directly traced from an Overwatch spray and so they don't want to release the cosmetics until they can find a replacement out of fear of legal trouble. Or they just aren't finished lol

  • GrimPixls 𝓘𝓽'𝓼 𝓟𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓬𝓮𝓼𝓼, 𝓽𝓸 𝔂𝓸𝓾. (@GrimPixls) reported

    also, only freaks w/parental issues e-threaten people ON OVERWATCH Please see a therapist

  • MusicSliders MusicSlider (@MusicSliders) reported

    Sorry about the last few min. Of the stream. Had problems but it's fix and I'll be playing overwatch next week.

  • KaynenLeong KaynenLeong🐏🍵(chibi comms open 1/5) (@KaynenLeong) reported

    @miss_moonbie @GoingGeeek_ttv I had a similar issue when i first played overwatch 1 when it came out a few years ago. I could only play for a good 2 or 3 hours before i'd get a headache. But as time progresses and i became more used to the game. 1st person POV became a lot less headache inducing and more fun!

  • cizcofps cizco (@cizcofps) reported

    @DerrekOW NEED TO FIX SOME STUFF BUT GOOD **** TODAY OVERWATCH

  • d3Lta_fpss Δ (@d3Lta_fpss) reported

    overwatch became 5vs5 now so it is really important for one person to actually do their job one broken character like sojourn can flip the whole table without.effort.

  • BlazeballThomas slowdown1990 (@BlazeballThomas) reported

    people don't ever look at the big picture. someone cheats on roblox is like "Not a big issue". someone cheats on your favorite game like COD or overwatch or fortnight and you go "I hate these cheaters". hypocryits smh.

  • drowningserene (blank) (@drowningserene) reported

    @K41OW @Kephrii highlighting issues in the game ≠ complaining about something that every other streamer has already been complaining about for weeks even though the overwatch team is actively trying to work on the issue

  • SerarelDeer Serarel (@SerarelDeer) reported

    the matchmaking in Overwatch is so broken lol
