  • Jacob_elam AdmiralJames (@Jacob_elam) reported

    @BlizzardCS I booted up Overwatch 2 and none of my collection transferred over. I’ve played Overwatch since launch and still have the same account. Is that a known issue?

  • LoganasaurusRex Logan Smith (@LoganasaurusRex) reported

    Overwatch 2 launch is awful. I’ve now got a PS4 and PS5 version of Overwatch 2 on my machine, and neither of them carried over any of the cosmetics or the fact I purchased the Watchpoint Pack. So I don’t have any heroes unlocked and there’s seemingly no way to fix it. Great job.

  • Stryxus Stryxus (@Stryxus) reported

    It seems the Overwatch 2 DDOS has subsided. Now I gotta wait in queue for another 30,000+ places.

  • tgtkai tgtkai (@tgtkai) reported

  • PAYMEM0RE ur mom (@PAYMEM0RE) reported

    Haha overwatch is getting DDOS'd rip to a legend

  • ncarvern913245 Nathan Carver (@ncarvern913245) reported

    @TheyCallMeDSP: There is absolutely no way a DDOS attack is the reason nobody can play Overwatch 2 today. EVERYBODY had been predicting this would happen when Blizzard did ZERO to properly prepare for a free to play launch. Making up excuses is embarrassing for a AAA game de…

  • bsmiffff breazy brea ✨ (@bsmiffff) reported from Hot Springs, Arkansas

    I DIDNT ASK FOR OVERWATCH TO MERGE TO OVERWATCH 2 & THEN SPEND 2 DAYS NOT PLAYING CAUSE YALLS SERVERS WERENT READY!! I just wanna play man, I would’ve been fine playing the OG one til y’all smoothed out all these problems 😵‍💫

  • Hellboy484 Hellboy (@Hellboy484) reported

    @PlayOverwatch yo why does it keep telling me to buy Overwatch 2 when it's free?! I'm on Xbox series S and it keeps telling me that the trial version of the game is not available to play!! Fix this ****!!!

  • AidnThaAssassin AidanThaAssassin (@AidnThaAssassin) reported

    i just want to play overwatch 2 but every time i get to the front of the queue they send my *** back to 30,000 because of a stupid error

  • ozonevolt Vvolt (@ozonevolt) reported

    @PlayOverwatch I downloaded the game, but all of my progress from Overwatch did not carry over to Overwatch 2. Is that an issue that is happening to others and will I get my stuff back?

  • ssrjazz ssrjazz (@ssrjazz) reported

    @DragonNephium @Qwik It’s a DDoS. Everyone legitimately trying to get in to Overwatch 2 is exacerbating the issue.

  • halfthealphabet abcdefghijkl091 (@halfthealphabet) reported

    @naevisleaks bad overwatch 2 isn't letting me play bc ppl ddos'ed all the servers

  • HelenPaage Helen (@HelenPaage) reported

    @Drustanlived @Qwik Why do you have to be so mean? Like, can you just at least stop saying bullshit and appreciate the overwatch team trying their best to solve these issues?

  • Starlaxttv Starlax (@Starlaxttv) reported

    I never was that into overwatch…BUT NOW that I’m not allowed in. Im all of a sudden obsessed. There is only so many “login errors” this boy can take. The most British game EVER. Waiting in a Q just to re-wait in that same Q.

  • AyyRPG Andrew Hicks (@AyyRPG) reported

    Alright, going to push stream back to 7 tonight to see if this overwatch 2 queue problem starts to resolve itself. If things haven’t progressed by then Apex legends it is.

  • FemBoyHange Hange (@FemBoyHange) reported

    IM STILM NOT IN 😭 @PlayOverwatch #overwatch fix this please

  • AxleCat Luke (@AxleCat) reported

    I find it funny how the Overwatch 1 launch had practically zero issues but nobody can get on to play Overwatch 2 on launch day lmao. Tbf it is apparently due to a DDoS attack but you'd think they'd have measures for stuff like this.

  • turtlegoals blob (@turtlegoals) reported

    approaching hour 4 since the overwatch 2 launch and still no fix

  • setholopod Seth (@setholopod) reported

    *Overwatch 2 has launch issues due to a DDoS attack* Community: "OMG BLIZZ HOW COULD YOU, YOU SHOULD PREPARE FOR THIS, WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG, YOU'RE SO ****, 3 YEARS IN DEVELOPMENT!" I'm sorry, I'd love to see y'all try to prevent and fix a DDoS attack. Y'all are the clowns.

  • aeronieee465 Nodesdam (@aeronieee465) reported

    so overwatch 2 i now available in the PH and might as well other asian country. i have been scrolling the past 5-10 minutes loooking at ppl in a queue with more than 100 ppl. the reason for a long queue was a Ddos attack
