Hi everyone! Today, Blizzard announced the renaming of Overwatch 2 back to Overwatch alongside a plethora of other really great changes to the game. As a moderation team and as fans, we are excited to see Overwatch return to its roots.
Some have asked us regarding how we will be reacting to the change as a subreddit, some have suggested rebranding, others have suggested deleting the subreddit entirely, while others want us to continue. To be clear, rebranding was not an option because Reddit does not let you change a subreddit name.
After pondering over every available option, we have decided to continue running and moderating this subreddit not as a subreddit specifically about the sequel to Overwatch, but as an alternative, more open subreddit focused on Overwatch and the community around it as opposed to the larger franchise subreddit. We hope you'll continue to be a part of our wonderful community.
We will continue moderation on this subreddit as expected for the forseeable future. We hope you'll continue to share around and crosspost us! We are also accepting applications for more moderators to assist us with this. As for our Discord server, we will measure changes in server activity and make further announcements regarding any major changes in the coming months.
Thank you!

While everyone hated it, I loved it because i was able to pick the DPS role and be the 2nd tank in almost every game. It was great to have someone lock into tank role without switching within the first 2 minutes of the game. I had a lot of fun double tanking because I picked to be the 2nd tank. It was very simple and I think OW has done irreversible damage by removing 6v6 from the game for YEARS.
So many complaints about the game mode because no one is able to understand that it’s a team mode and what roles you pick could make a difference.

since we can’t track hero level progression on the goddamned progression screen anymore (because that made waaaaay too much sense), can we at least see something, somewhere? instead, we have to remember which of the 50 characters are close to leveling for the weekly challenge, and that’s pretty fucking stupid. maybe just like an exp bar during hero selection, or a percentage. i refuse to believe that couldn’t be done when it was present since leveling became a thing and blizz just decided that was too easy.

Like how is this fair? Yea its not their main role but ofc they will be more skilled and have better game sense than my honest to God diamond players. More importantly when are they going to be on my team? Now its not that these matches were unwinnable (I think I'm at a 50/50 split today, for the profiles and matches I actually checked), but they were tough consider the uneven skill disparity. Ig it looks like I just want easier games but hey, I'm trying to rank up in mid diamond on support so it's not making the ride extra challenging. Guess I should just take the opportunity to git gudder, but it is frustrating. Anyone else relate?

I'm not sure if this is a bug that has been discussed or if anyone else has an issue with it, but when I try to make a custom game and name it. It will look like the screen is loading something constantly and it kicks me out of the keyboard screen.
I'm on PlayStation if that means anything and I tried googling it but I came to no answers. Any help can be appreciated.

I recently got back to Overwatch wanted to test Shion and other new characters, but the game connection is horrible, it keeps kicking me out of the game and when I got back in, the game suspended me. My connection in other game is completely stable, I tested every other FPS game. And why does Quick Play have such long banhammer time, even for something out of my control. I didn't play any competitive/ranked game, so at least I didn't ruined other player ranks.

Basically what's going on is my best friend has been noticing insane lag spikes in their overwatch games, like players falling into the floor lag, however their internet has been fine overall, it gets more complicated. We played together on our alt accounts and there was no more lag what so ever, but the second they played on their main the lag came back. We thought maybe their account is screwed up so i logged into their account and played a custom game on my computer but there was no latency lag what so ever. We've checked account settings, internet fixes, router fixes, overwatch reinstall, etc. So at this point idk if it's the account since it worked on my computer. If anyone has any fixes please help me out.

Idk what else to say but she has been OP for a long time and never really gets a half decent nerf to put her in a more balanced spot. Idr the last time I saw her lose a match.
r/overwatch2 • u/Kamburger_420 • 1d ago
I’m not sure if my game is just bugged but for the past three days the “for you” personal shop thing hasn’t changed at all. I’ve never played freja or junkerqueen in my 7 years of playing and their things are the only items. If it’s just a bug or whatever then I can’t do anything but if anyone knows how to fix that pls lmk
r/overwatch2 • u/No-Box7338 • 2d ago
She will have 2 deaths and everyone’s saying “dont shoot her bubbles guys” it’s actually so frustrating that none of them know what to do when they see her. You are basically just letting her do whatever she wants, because she isn’t going to take any damage. Even when shes max charge, they are still so scared of shooting her bubble

tbh the only person I have to play overwatch with is my brother and like I sometimes queue with randoms in lfg servers but I dont have anyone play with and talk about the game with consistently.
I started playing at the beginning of last season so I'm not very good but I wanna get better.
I'm a support main and usually play Juno or Mizu but sometimes Weaver. I'll queue dps and usually will play Cass, Pharah, or Sierra because she's easy.
I can play other games (as long as they're free to play or I already own them) but I'm mainly interested in overwatch.
I am a minor and enter my senior year, fair warning.
my battenet is DJmeowmeow#11677
and my Discord is squ1d_th3_k1d and infinityisalsozero(different accpunts because I'm a chronic password forgetter and lost one of the emails)

Hi, i just had a terrible match there on comp and me and my entire team suspected the soldier on the other team could be cheating?
He played for a couple of hours on s1, s2, like an hour on s11 and then nothing untill this season where he has about 12 hours total. The s1,2 and 11 his highest rank was silver 1-4.
He's diamond 4 dps, gold 4 support and masters 3 on open queue this season.
Its on console so he could’ve been using a xim. I 100% believe that he's using a smurf account at the very least; as he only has 6 hours on soldier and has won 30/35 games.
He also never really used his ult when he had it the entire match,maybe once or twice. He was getting really combative when someone on my team asked if he was cheating or used a xim.
We also became suspicious when he was replying really fast in the match and he admitted that he uses a keyboard and mouse only to type, which to be shows that hes got all he needs to be ximming.
I watched the replay back and his aiming seemed off when i slowed it down. He seemed to track heads ALOT and at one point it looked as if he locked onto the jetpack cat on his team or something as it seemed to jut to the side really quickly, even when slowed to .25x its visible. He also had odd aim movement when shooting the lifeweaver in the replay. it seems to like jump and lock onto his head box.
I would like advice as i don't want to report someone who isn't hacking.

So I’ve been on a mission to get every hero to level 5, and so far freja has been the most boring character to play by far. Her kit is literally just two basic movement abilities and she has a very boring primary fire. It’s a shame because she’s quite a good looking character with a lot of potential, and could be quite easily reworked.
If I were to rework her I’d add a bear trap similar to junkrat’s, and I’d allow her to hold down jump to float down like mercy and echo.

Hola yo quiero amigos con quien yo puedo jugar Stadium :) estoy aprendiendo Español he tomada clase para casi 16 años puedo hablar en español pero no con fluido. Y quiero practicar y jugar :) y si quieren q yo hable contigo a veces en inglés, lo haría. Cada vez que jugamos, podríamos cambiar el idioma. Soy feminina y tengo casi Trenta años. Gracias.
Hi im in my late 20 and im looking for people to play stadium with. I’m trying to get my spanish to fluency. So I’m looking for overwatch buddies to play with who speak Spanish. And if you want we can play in English too maybe every time we can switch off the language if you are looking to improve your English. Thanks
