@RickyRexx I feel like Overwatch was popular for a little bit at least. The problem was they kept changing things.

@madsiesss 1. Thats stupid and bluntly a bad move, there releaseing it now to cover there bad press, thats it 2. So what, why kill overwatch one, you can have both without issue 3. Thats simply just untrue, not to mention a gross overreach because hardware bans are a thing

@theMoneyFolder In all honesty, Overwatch 2 needs to crash and burn for both the sake of Blizzard. They need to stop making such idiotic changes for no reason.

@Kemmo_Ado But that’s the big issue with Overwatch right now is that the core game isn’t fun. It used to be but since it shifted its focus on e-sports, it became less of a game to have fun with and instead a pool of tryhards that want to break into that scene

@Naminesdad @iHadeel_x it is basically scamco's attempt at a gundam overwatch, but it is rife with problems that i don't think it'll survive beyond extremely hardcore gundam fans, since the only thing it has going for it is that it is f2p

@BlizzardCS @acidicnerves Which anyone on pre-paid service, it doesn’t work. Over 40 million people are on pre-paid service. Good job putting the final nail in the coffin of Overwatch.

Apparently you can't play Overwatch 2 without enabling 2FA. No problem, but those of us who use a prepaid service (Cricket, Metro, etc) can't use our numbers because they are prepaid and not post paid. WTF! @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS @Blizzard_Ent

@volskayadottxt Same! I hate to admit it but I'm needing to use my friend's number (She doesn't play Overwatch anymore and I'm stuck in the USA for now) but the plan I'm on isn't allowed so that's why I need to use hers which sucks. I hope blizz can maybe fix this or at least clarify more!

@bajwablast I feel you because I guess I have visual limitations, in raid if too much is happening on screen I literally can’t find the markers 😔 I used to have trouble in Overwatch too, if too much was happening on screen

Smurfing must have genuinely been a massive issue in Overwatch. It’s one thing for players to “feel” like there’s a problem but for Blizzard to force phone verification and only allow 1 number per account is wild. #Overwatch2

@SophiaNarwitz Okay so no one had a problem with them adding a phone number verification to wz but oh God forbid overwatch requires it now

@shackle_ton so does overwatch have a huge smurf or bot problem or something? I'm really not sure why they're doing this.

@jj_no_jarrett @PeteyQ12 @MercuryCDX Nothing spells ill informed more than people who attribute that problem to Overwatch the game. Not only was the player not an Overwatch player, Blizzard is a multibillion dollar conglomerate whose decisions don’t reflect dev teams
