  @HubPointless Also if there were ever a topic not spoken about enough, it's this exact issue here. Counter Strike, Overwatch, Valorant, Doom is basically Halo 3 customs with player speed at 150%! Sprint is a gimmick that's fun, but it was never Halo's core experience. Halo 3 was that in spades

  @yseasoned @Greenpig117 Because overwatch simply missed its chance to be a good game again i'm afraid. Their lack of trying to improve until they had competition is the embodiment of everything wrong with live service games.

  @CarlHigbie One or two overwatch plinks would solve a lot of troubling issues.

  @Bloomzor @DumbsYT @Necrit94 I tried to argument it further on another answer. The problem is that I don't know why does he say that so I can't really fight it with arguments, from my perspective league is not on a bad spot and has been on way worse ones. Like overwatch or Fortnite release

  Bello! Me analyze Overwatch clip, very critical, like minion! Clip show payload game, lotsa beams, explosions, maybe cheating by Whisperz, bello! Giardia_ow mad, call for ref, suggest foul play. Cheating big problem in Overwatch, FACEIT got strict rules, ban aimbots, wallhacks fast. But maybe not cheating, could be hero skill or game bug, like lag, look suspicious, bello! Need FACEIT check clip proper, ensure fair play. False blame hurt too, make game toxic. Truth matter most, investigate fully, bello!

  @SamitoFPS @MarvelRivals Support is always a problem in every game Overwatch League Rivals Unite Always the most brain dead and broken role.

  @The_JBS I have no problem with the targeted strikes on regime leaders, nuclear scientists, and nuclear infrastructure. Providing intelligence and overwatch with planes and ships.

  @StrawbTangerine By all means, prove me wrong. I'll wait. I can't wait to see what brilliant, reasonable and well thought out argument you'll bring that doesn't involve dodging the issue- oh wait, that's right, you can't. Go back to playing Overwatch and maining Venture, no one cares.

  @FredGra91716482 @ThatLoganJames @MewZe_ becomes fun" because that's not something I felt playing the OW beta back in the day or when I started Rivals a few months ago. the shields aren't NEARLY as dominating as they are in Overwatch and so far visual clutter isn't too bad. My main problem with OW was the...

  @bnpar26 @GagasLeftT0e It is a problem. DVA has been broken since the start of overwatch. She still is, she is after Freja the most banned tank in higher ranks

  @arceus227 @JunosHyperRing @PlayOverwatch Overwatch isn't fun, that's the problem, and como don't give you rewards, actual rewards for ranking up, the only progression is the battle pass, which if yo don't pay get nothing

  gamja (@gamja2174) reported 25 minutes ago

  @Gracellynn6 @Vodible @MarvelRivals Agreed. Overwatch has some of these issues as well, but at least OW has taken a firm stance that it’s going to be a competitive game and Blizzard at least officially supports/acknowledges the Esports scene and gives it a stable/sustainable league/structure.

  I kind of have a problem where I associate things together by words. A tweet will be like “this is a bad omen” and mentally I’m like “omg omen from overwatch?”. Or someone texts something & I’ll latch on to one word that I remember is in a song lyric and send them the song lyrics

  @Symmetraupdates Ah I see though I’ve noticed people just hating to hate lately with Overwatch. Oh? Same issue too? :(

  @DarkDragonMasta You’re right, the other live service games are charging $10 for recolors and $25-$30 for costumes (Fortnite, Overwatch, Diablo). Name a live service game that is cheaper than MR? BP next month? All BPs in all these games give maximum value, that’s not even the same comparison.

  @BlizzardCS Can I talk to a human about hacking in overwatch two. If given the opportunity I will work actual work weeks to find and implement ways to help this problem for very reasonable rates.

  @MulticamOw overwatch had this same problem.

  R.T (@RyanTmhg) reported 32 minutes ago

  @CY4N4R4 I don’t get the issue, you know how the game plays it’s Overwatch the same as it has for years. Map voting is coming everybody knows this why are people upset it’s not in the trailer if they know it’s coming.

  BIG HABIBI ENERGY!!! (@justjoddat_ttv) reported 33 minutes ago

  I haven't backed out of any Stadium game on purpose - it's been driver crashes and me trying to figure out the problem and now I'm on a 1 hour suspension. I couldn't even rejoin my game when I IMMEDIATELY relaunched Overwatch.

  @genebbyy Heh now if they would just sneakily add my oc into overwatch I’ll fix everyone’s problems

  Jay (@reiandsunshine) reported 38 minutes ago

  @EXCELSlOR_ Sounds stupid, but Lucio from Overwatch or Doomfist, there was a rumors way back about OW coming to smash, but after like some Hong Kong issue it soured the water

  @Bluah97 Sensor is decent, I think it’s either 3370 or 3395, and it performs amazing in game, no issues when playing any game, and doesn’t feel any different than any other mouse using a 480hz monitor in Overwatch

  @_foulDOOM Same issue I had with overwatch. This game needs communication and people only talk when you are having your worst game in a month lololol
