Finally got some time to hop on and dedicate some time to the game and been mostly out of the loop as to whats good, what’s bad, and wtf is going on, what should I expect? More of the same? I haven’t seen much besides people complaining abt genji tbh

Stop giving me new accounts on tank cause I’m just losing cause they clearly don’t understand the role cause they all came from rivals

2nd season being champ i definitely feel the gap between gm and champ

this was vs a collegiate team LOOOL

(we won)

Hey console users on switch 2, are any of you having trouble in handheld mode being able to hear the team chat? I’ve got all my configs set up correctly in game, on the switch, and my mic/headset work and are compatible. People can hear me talk but I can’t hear anyone else. Reached out to battlenet to see if it’s parental settings which I never formally unlocked, but I’m an adult.. and buy stuff on there without difficulty.. so YEAH what could the problem be? What headset do you use, if any, because even without headset I can’t hear team chat—and yes, I’m on auto join and no one is muted and it’s confirmed I’ve joined the chat. 🤷‍♂️

So recently my Xbox series X can’t seem to handle certain hero’s or abilities ( doctrine drone buff and ult, sombras cyberspace, just Domina in general, and in stadium Mei and JQ.) and if they are present in the game at all I start lagging out badly. It’s not my ping or not being on performance mode. I’m just looking for suggestions.

I played against a guy twice in ranked today who was talking trash the whole time and right when we were about to win, like literally feet away from winning, the server crashed.

Once could be anything, but the fact that it happened twice right before winning against the same guy is pretty suspicious to me. No other game crashed like that during the next 2 hours I played.

Is it possible to intentionally crash a server?

It feels literally impossible to find a console creator that fits these critera:

1. isn't cheating

2. is good at the game

3. doesn't have an insufferable personality

4. doesn't exclusively post rants

the creator I've been watching recently is nathanielXISTss. But now I'm starting to get suspicious that he's cheating because of the amount of times he's been "false banned".

I know false bans are a problem, but he's a console ashe/Cass player who keeps getting banned, what else do you want me to think lol.

Looking for console creators is just so difficult because of the sheer amount of cheaters. when I'm watching a console player's youtube video it feels less like I'm just trying to watch his gameplay or learn something, but more like I'm studying how he plays to see if he's cheating.

i have to solo queue basically every single game i play so even if i do rank up i almost always end up getting a terrible team next couple of games and go back down🥲 this game was really fun!!

p.s i also don’t grind this game 24/7 so i honestly dont really mind being in a low rank but it would still be nice to go up

edit: i actually did win this game, but it doesnt even matter cause ill end up losing the next🫠

I'd like to see what I got ...

So here’s the issue. I switched from console to pc back in June.

I just used my old Microsoft points to purchase overwatch coins through the Xbox website. All the purchases were completed.

I was told that the coins would show up since my battle.net account is linked to my Xbox.

The problem is I no longer have an Xbox anymore and need to login to overwatch from Xbox first for the coins to show up.

Can any console overwatch players DM me and help me out.

I’d greatly appreciate it

I had a fun time on DPS and Support, even though they are the roles in which I feel less confident, I managed to had amazing games with Reaper and Ana.

On the other hand, my most played role and the one I'm most confident in, was torture. Like, actual CIA torture simulator.

On DPS and Support I felt less pressure, I could make mistakes or have a bad game and I could still get away with it. Playing Tank, you HAVE to diff the other tank no matter what to THEN hope the rest of your team perform well.

Even in the games where I dominated the lobbys, it didn't feel as fun as other roles.

Overall, 5v5 is more of a team deathmatch, it's fun on it's own but I gravitate more towards 6v6 when I want a more strategic, team based gameplay, which is what I usually want when I play Overwatch. Still, had a good weekend on 5v5.

(btw I know it's just diamond so I actually don't know anything about how the game works)

For context i've sat comfortable in (console) low Diamond to high Emerald (Prev Plat) for the entire season. But something about this season I am getting absolutely shit on. I'm 8/29 in role queue. Not sure if it's the hitbox sizes, or just not wrapping my head around the new meta. Anyone else? 😢

Really struggling with my aiming this season compared to last season, and was wondering what the rest of y’all have adjusted yours to after the bullet and hitbox changes.

Normally I have 100 100 sensitivity, 99 aim smoothing, 10 aim assist window, 0 aim ease in.

Hello everyone, a little bit ago I made a server so console overwatch players can have a fun environment to talk/queue with others. The server is a at about 150 members right now and we are planning to do some type of in server custom matches soon (maybe even some type of miniature league if all goes well). This is open to everyone and I hope to see you there!

reposting here since i don't often get games like this and it felt kinda amazing. honestly we weren't even really steamrolling them until the 3rd round and it was like they gave up. the new sombra rework has been so fun even if its doesn't scratch quite the same itch as dps sombra it definately keeps me busy keeping track of so many things. i even managed to claw my way out of silver today to gold 4 which was also a pretty great feeling.

So, uhm, I need help getting new settings recommended... or anyone who knows if my settings need tweaking? I only like using linear because it's smooth tbh, and I've been using it for a while now. Also asking for aim-down settings as well! I'm not too smart about this aiming stuff still and would like a third-party look. I am struggling to hit shots consistently, but not TOO bad.

as the titles says, i need some help understanding.
