@OWAnonymous_ Overwatch on Switch had the worst lag, the worst graphics but... the Community was the heaven on Earth.

@schildhoused It's hard to say, I think it could be a problem of too many lines in the water. Things like CoD or Overwatch league hit one player base and they are locked in. Feels like sim racing can be more diverse and spread out if you will but I'm not really sure.

I hope people that have an addiction to overwatch realize the problem it creates in their life and stop being in denial. it's not healthy and not worth ruining your life for whether it be not sleeping or abusing Adderall

@beardedstranger I ran into that problem where pubbing it was only fun half the time because nobody wanted to coordinate, but playing with friends got us put into the extremely sweaty bracket. I know that's not a unique problem for overwatch, but it felt extra bad there.

@BlizzardCS My Overwatch group/team voice chat do not work. I cannot hear teammates and they cannot hear me. I have gona through all the troubleshooting online and cannot get in contact with anyone from CS. How do I get this issue fixed.

@GolazoDan It's weird because they're always late? Like it's been 3 or 4 years since the overwatch fad faded out, the new assassins creed is a live service when that died two years ago, why are they so bad at this?

The problem with Overwatch 2 isn't that it's taking a long time to make. The problem is that Blizzard cut back on content during this waiting period. We haven't had a hero since Echo (April 14, 2020) or a new comp map since Havana (May 7, 2019). This is a big problem.

Broken 2016 overwatch was the best and most fun, 217-present is just hot garbage.

@YX_Fallen_Angel @OWAnonymous_ I have two theories. Theory one is that they think they can just nerf everything else about the character instead of fixing the problem. Theory two is that they’re going to rework him for overwatch 2 instead of doing it now.

@PlayOverwatch I know how disappointing you guys are as a company I'm not expecting much from overwatch 2 but please fix the pharah and mercy combo

@diegosaurs Fair enough. It’s been awhile since I played overwatch but I remember pubs sbmm being pretty bad. I also want to say I just don’t think it’s exclusively an apex problem but I wish it would change too

@BottlesTheMole @NintendoAmerica They did the same for Overwatch and Crash Team Racing

@lesbicyn I mean, csgo feels completely different to cod and so does overwatch. There are sub genres of FPS games and in those sub genres they do feel the same. But i think the main problem with FPS market are god awful sequels to games that don’t need them. Cod every year became stale.

Hearing Overwatch haters makes my brain go numb cause all their problems are fixed now cause they haven’t played in 3 or 4 years

@TipsOutBaby The problem with the overwatch league was for one the franchising that in itself did damage. After the first couple months I stopped watching but I'm sure constant metta changes and characters being added mid season also had part of the problem.

@speedcolaa this is a big issue i have too! id love to see overwatch do more charity events, but its rly obvious that people only care abt the skins 😭

@Sinferno0816 @1haiku_ Was 4600 top 60 in overwatch. Never fought a 6 stack unless my team was a 4/5 stack. Valorant had a huge issue with 5 stacks going against solos when it first came out so they fixed it, crazy apex has been out for years and they can’t do that.

@acidlure @_giuseppe32 It's also worth noting SOME mods (especially NRaas mods) will really hurt performance (contrary to popular belief). ErrorTrap and Overwatch are fine, but StoryProgression, Register, etc. cause lag.

@SpawnWaveMedia with that teaser is obvious that is either a Mobile Game or a Rated E-T game as a service in vein to Overwatch
