    @Blizzard_Ent overwatch 2 is so broken and full of terrible abilities, I actually had to drown my hamster in my nephews sink.

    Okay now that Overwatch is free to play, imma need to see some more women in this Overwatch League because a paywall could have led to a discoverability issue, but there's really no excuse now.

    @ItsChloe73 @RyanOwen21 @SamitoFPS I’ve been playing overwatch since 2016 as well and I’m a mercy main, she can still do good heals. But she needs to be kept alive, the big issue as a support is we can stay alive because there is no such thing as a tank anymore And lack of communication because no LFG.

    @NihilistSaberYT @SMii7Y Fortnite kids will still play every game like it's fortnite after all these years*. It's a problem with every game currently especially in crossplay, Apex, Halo, Battlefield, Overwatch, even ******* Counter Strike now. If a player can't hit their shots on PC they just spam jump.

    The only thing I can think I'm the only one affected out of my friends is because I played Overwatch originally on my PS4 and now linked my accounts on my PC. FIX. THIS. I JUST WANT TO PLAY COMP. It's ridiculous that yall punish people for "leaving" unranked/quickplay games

  • Chaddiekins

    Playing apex and tbh I haven't complained of lag one bit today. Idk if that is server improvement or the map or my ISP but give thanks. Still gonna get into more overwatch tho

    For people having issues with the Overwatch League drops, I'd recommend logging in on a different gaming console. I mainly play PC but downloaded OW2 and logged into Xbox to see if I got the Carbon Fiber Pharah Skin and ended up claiming 500 League Tokens out of nowhere lul

    Overwatch, why ******** do I get into games and get disconnected and get a ******* penalty for not being able to get in? This is the only game I lag this ******* badly

  • Dakiis_
    𝐃𝐚𝐤𝐢🇺🇦 (@Dakiis_) reported

    So I got about 9 hours of overwatch league skins and 60 tokens but I've been watching for around 22 hours. I don't really care about the skins because they put out on nov 15 but they didn't say anything about tokens. @overwatchleague please fix the tokens

    @andrew_jrt thats a video game issue not a overwatch issue

  • WHIPodcastKeith
    Bagging, Boarding, Boxing (@WHIPodcastKeith) reported

    Just a reminder that Mei was only removed from Overwatch 2 due to a combination that requires Kiriko and Blizzard can’t remove Kiriko without admitting the character they built the whole game release around is broken.

  • LegacyKillaHD
    Michael (@LegacyKillaHD) reported

    Love how these AAA live service multiplayer games launch with atrocious monetization features (Halo Infinite, Overwatch 2, etc.) & simply go "WHOOPSIE" when they face extreme backlash for being greedy, acting like they weren't at all testing the waters. We see what you're doing.

    Graphic update did my scenes in. It’ll just take a little to fix it and then I’ll be live with some Overwatch!!

    @PlayOverwatch you need to fix your game. Why tf does Hog have 700 heath, he can heal himself, and insta kill with his hook? Why are you changing Sombra to the point where she's basically useless instead of changing her back to how she was in Overwatch 1.

  • WaySide46
    WaySidePanda46 (@WaySide46) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Heya, So I have a problem. I logged on to my Overwatch Account and Notice that 200 of my League Tokens have disappeared. I have not purchased anything with them, and the support site isn't really helping in terms of how to fix this. Is this a bug?.

    @Halo If @PlayOverwatch takes this long to fix itself it’ll literally be a “dead game” like overwatch 1 was not long ago…

  • alsagone
    Hakim 🏳️‍🌈 (@alsagone) reported

    It costs 2600 Overwatch Credits And of course, you have the typical problem of the credits being bundled in packs 500 (4.99€)/1000 (9.99€)/2200 (19.99€) So the entire bundle costs you 25 euros :')

    did blizzard fix the bug where the game crashes your entire pc when you launch overwatch 2 or no?

    @Blizzard_Ent Signing up for accounta, phone numbers, customer service, etc. You've gotta be the worst company in the world for it. Honestly the amount of effort I've put in to play overwatch just so you can't verify my phone number is insane. Your company seriously sucks.

    Daedric Abyss (@8lue_Dra6on) reported

    @MAJ0RGG I never thought I'd complain about hitscans in a game... I could never play them and I used to think that Widowmaker in Overwatch wasn't broken. Mainly because I like to go braindead and face-tank things. But hell, I could not move when being shot at!

  • FR3DFOSSIL
    FR3D (@FR3DFOSSIL) reported

    I recommand, Do not buy blizzard game. Once they had serviced Destiny2 but now... Once they had serviced OverWatch but now... Do not buy games in blizzard battle net app, they probably stop service and delete game. #Blizzard #dontbuy
