  • QuincyPSZN 🇾🇪 (@QuincyPSZN) reported

    @EskayOW OKAY IT WAS AN OVERWATCH ISSUE I THOUGHT IT WAS MY INTERNET

  • _MIIGHTY_ Mighty (@_MIIGHTY_) reported

    Smfh how is it that it's 2022 and we still have these **** games. Played overwatch 2 today mid way through the competitive ranked placement get error coded how does this **** happen...#Overwatch2

  • FullmetalD_ FullmetalD (@FullmetalD_) reported

    @BlizzardCS still no solution to the freezing a crashing issue in overwatch? I've had a ticket in place for about 4 days now.

  • canrists ghost. (@canrists) reported

    @SplatBaller97 @Flyguyty13 And also you're tiptoeing around the problem of them only making Overwatch 2 free to play just so they could make the monetization scummy as hell. It's the same reason they shut down Overwatch 1. So people are forced to play the new (worse) f2p version.

  • Dragonlord941 Dragonlord94 (@Dragonlord941) reported

    and if it's already been used on a another account then you have to get a brand new phone number order to play OverWatch 2. and their customer service can't even override it or bypass it either it is unfixable you cannot do anything even the company themselves.

  • bibbalibba bibba (@bibbalibba) reported

    Why is overwatch so behind bro if ur internet ***** up even for a second you don’t even get a chance you just instantly get disconnected. Literally in every other game if that happens u jus lag for a bit.

  • SiahMars King Turtle 🐢 (@SiahMars) reported

    @TheRealJTV4K60 Overwatch 2 was everyone sadly. I hope they fix it so more players can play.

  • Dlux26_ D-luxington (@Dlux26_) reported

    I’ll say the biggest issue I have with overwatch which I’ll admit I am guilty of sometimes but the fact that some of the more used support hero’s have good damage so the people who play them end up using them as another dps rather than healer and it makes your team struggle

  • khearts_sora SORA (@khearts_sora) reported

    @BlizzardCS I also have trouble accessing the PVE part of OVERWATCH TWO

  • puptartist Melon 🍉 CANCER FUNDRAISER EVERY STREAM🍉 (@puptartist) reported

    @OverwatchCaval why overwatch execs goofy as hell shipping out this unfinished flop at least it's free, too bad there was also a forced-payment glitch. lol.

  • tukiiOW Tuki (@tukiiOW) reported

    Next Overwatch issue question, anyone else being thrown into random Asian servers on OCE/AUS & having their ping boosted to 165-200ms? I'm hoping that gets rectified quickly cause the latency is boned W/ some matches unplayable @BlizzardCS @PlayOverwatch #Overwatch2 #Overwatch
