@KOR_Vanguard @PlayOverwatch Playing on PC doesn’t fix your positioning and strategy. Being good at aiming and being good at overwatch are overlapping but distinct skills.

@lordbepis If they do it right. It would fix a lot of problems that console overwatch has. However.. If they mess up. This feature could kill the game for console players.

@BlizzardCS coming back to this to let you know it's unresolved. I am not having issues in other games, hell, even overwatch works fine so it's not a blizzard thing, idk why wow specifically doesnt work

How many maps are there even gonna be for multiplayer? How many game modes? Even Overwatch 2 is adding a PvE mode to the sequel. EA literally pulled all multiplayer from Dragon Age, which could have been cool, because of Anthems only multiplayer issues. Im just confused.

I also feel like this is going to be a test for Overwatch 2, to see if it's actually possible to make Overwatch 2 cross-playable without it causing too many issues. Really liking the changes and stuff that's being done 💙

@Jay3OW They have no cross play between console and pc for comp. Making the whole cross play experience useless in my opinion. If it works for apex, and fortnite then why is it an issue for overwatch? Just another way overwatch will still be behind other games.

@Mehrdad46520072 @_Sarenji_ @purrezii well duh lol it gives off the image that they care which can still at the end of the day be beneficial. it's ridiculous that other games can do this but overwatch. clearly shows that it is lagging behind.

@Romudeth People had absolutely no issue with Black Ops 4. Sold great, good game, good playerbase.. but it’s CoD so it got a pass. Same goes for overwatch, immensely successful paid multiplayer game. Multiple ways to get into this battlefield without paying full price, I see no issue.

@ericbellgaming Easy way to fix this is to just make players get tested. Pretty sure overwatch does

@JUNKERKlNG Are you also having trouble getting in the game? Or is that just them working on Overwatch?

i dislike overwatch now, it's super grindy and toxic, blizz sucks and is bad, and overwatch 2 looks like it's going in a bad direction that isn't attempting to fix any of the problems i had with the first one but i still have a torbjorn nendoroid on my desk 😔🙏

@edeniaspride How? How did you do it? You've played Overwatch longer than me and I'm wanting to literally break a TV and delete this game and begone of all my problems. How have you not lost your mind?

@BeaminginBurger Who am I hoping for? Diluc, Shadow or Tails, Ryu Hayabusa or 2B (as very unlikely as that is. Who am I guessing it’ll be: Either Crash, a Monster Hunter character, Eggman, Jonesy (I hope not), or Tracer Overwatch, We should watch it live together.

@digitalspork @EvilToaster Overwatch released a rainbow player picture thingy but said nothing did nothing and its not even called Pride its called rainbow. They just like to ignore the social issues they claim to care so much about

@Romudeth Like I’ve been saying I think it depends on the game. Battlefield games have historically always had a campaign so this feels like cutting content and raising prices. Now if it was overwatch or some other online only game and they raised the price I’d take less of an issue

@xMBGx People bought Overwatch and Black Ops 4 with no campaign. So I really don’t see the issue here. Prowl just like to complain. I never seen anyone mention they play Battlefield for the campaign.

@48H1N4V84N3RJ33 @YourOverwatchYT Overwatch felt diverse when it came out because nothing else was. Now that games show more diversity, we can clearly see that the game failed to be representative in the way it set out to be. It’s also had multiple issues of stereotyping and showing appropriation as okay

(@mrsheepkyle) reported
@marlphobic @PlayOverwatch Probably because the switch wasn't designed to run overwatch well, developers keep pushing out ports of games for the switch that run awful, overwatch, apex, fortnite etc. Just for a quick buck, don't expect a fix until the rumored switch pro comes out

@VibinWithViolet The most confusing part is that COD has way more pride stuff going on, so this isn't even an Activision problem—it's specific to the Overwatch team.

@true_jek_art Overwatch as the first FPS rep over the much more genre influential (or, as much as I hate the word, deserving) picks that are DOOM or Halo as well as (on the Activision side of things) turning Crash's chances to mush (at least on fighters pass volume 2) ...😐

@ivxmusic for some games i think crossplay wouldn't be fair because of how much easier a mouse and keyboard is to use than a controller. for games like overwatch bc of competitive? crossplay would be an issue. but sea of thieves? dead by daylight? crossplay just MAKES SENSE to have

(@danno_omen) reported
@Crusader3456 @Logmey92 I think the issue comes with the franchise. The franchise has always had a campaign and multiplayer. So to me you are cutting content and increasing price. If this was say overwatch 2 which is adding a campaign to a MP only game than I can’t say much about a price Increase
