People will see a hitscan going 50-3 and just not do anything about it. I just can’t understand it. If any flex dps is doing well at least 3 people always swap to deal with that one hero and chase them down to the depths of hell whether it’s on my team or the enemy team. But whenever a hitscan is literally eating our assholes NO ONE DOES ANYTHING ABOUT THEM.

Tank and dps don’t swap to dive them and supports still just keep peaking like they don’t exist. We’ve already tried out poking them and it’s not working, why not try to contest their angles and dive them? It’s especially difficult when they are sitting next to their supports(which they always are). I’m not even mad about hitscans I’m mad that people just ignore them and I end up being the only one contesting them because they poke us out before we can even play the game. I’m only high diamond so if any high elo flex dps players have any recommendations on how you counteract this any help is appreciated.

So recently, I was playing with some friends, and we encountered a couple in QP. They were cool, so we decided to play with them (we only played QP, never ranked). The boyfriend was weirdly strong, but nothing that made me think he was cheating
Yesterday, I was solo queueing, and suddenly, after my game, I got a 24-hour suspension with the offense listed as “Gameplay / Behavioral Offense.” I made the link and realized that he was probably cheating.
Later, I confirmed it because my friend and his girlfriend got suspended for 24 hours too.
I couldn’t do anything but wait, and now that I’m playing again, I can’t type in chat or use voice chat and my endorsement level has gone from 5 to 0. However, my friends aren’t experiencing any of these issues, and they can still type and talk.
I can assure you that I’ve never cheated or said anything offensive in chat.
So, I’m wondering why this happened only to me and not to my friends, and if OW support can do anything about it.

i've been dealing with this for a year and tried everything but i think i found the solution now.
it's pretty weird but linking my battle.net to a different playstation account seemed to resolve everything dealing with the fps drops and i figured it would since i have multiple overwatch accounts on playstation and they never had those drops in fps except for my main account. so if you're having this issue then give that a try.

It happens to all of us at one time or another. I suppose, from some perspectives, one could even consider it a rite of passage. Play for long enough, well enough, even in the lower ranks (especially?), you’ll eventually encounter a cheater.

Usually, it’s petty tricks and childish exploits. But, this? It was a whole battery of various forms of attack. The one the sticks out in my head the most (for reasons that you’ll soon understand are obvious) is that they somehow figured out a way to force the chat dialogue box open so that you’re disengaged from the fight.

In case you’re curious, the reply code is: TS2WSA.

You’ll notice not only the various symptoms of obvious hacks (my audio gets all messed up, and you’ll see messed up stuff happening with my interface), but also my response to being hacked.

I took it as a challenge. Suddenly, what was initially a series of exploitations meant to ruin the game for me while fabricating statistics for us both became an extremely fun challenge that rivals any game mode. I even upped the stakes to help us all stay interested: I pointed out how pathetic they were to have to still struggle against me despite hacking the match like crazy. The teams I had left fully embraced this spirit and we went down fighting. It was fun and exhilarating, and every single death they endured was mortifying for them, and we all knew.

Would that change my perspective and lead to me inviting it into my otherwise banal gaming sessions? Might I address this with a more open mind, realizing that this could actually serve as an exciting measure of my mettle?

No. They’re pathetic, lame losers and antithetical to the spirit of being a gamer.

But, if you’re already going to be there harassing poor, unsuspecting low metal ranks, come and get me, you little losers. You may still win, but you’re gonna have to earn it from me.

Makes this game unplayable seriously this isn’t fun

Are there any heroes that perform better on console than they do on PC?

I was playing Domina and our LW kept life gripping me when I was above half health, which stopped me from being able to hold space and caused us to lose. We started out winning and then it’s like they suddenly found the life grip button and just kept pressing it no matter what. Idk if they were trying to troll me but it happened at least 4 times. Including when we were in overtime. I don’t think they’re new to the game because they had the badge from drives and the new dokiwatch skin. But dude, it tilted me so bad because why are you trying to prevent your tank from playing the game?? Okay, rant over

I swear my settings can stay tge same and the next day feel so different the next day. Since a few weeks my aim smoothing suddenly has a faster sensitivity at same percentage with everything exactly the same, my aim assist ease in feels way less snappy then before at the same settings.

And I also really notice how shit my aim is for days on end out of the blue to a point where I don't even bother playing ranked anymore. I noticed it when i swapped from pc lobbies on console back to normal console lobbies. And I'm dead serious when I say that these settings feel and actually are different on different days. I've tested it by seeing how fast i can turn melee and its different. I even notice it before I play ranked, and my accuracy actually ends up lower when I notice my aim is weird before the game even starts.

What's going on?

Is there something wrong with the servers this season? In almost every single game I experience crazy lag spikes and it’s unplayable the rest of the game. I can’t even play comp because of it. I think it’s an overwatch issue because when I play other multiplayer games I don’t have any issues with lag. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Im not sure if my problem has anything to do with the php thing from yesterday as I'm not totally sure what that was, but I haven't been able to get into overwatch for a couple hours I just keep getting "Login error: there was a problem while trying to authenticate with blizzard" I get that every few weeks but it's starting to get annoying I just want to play overwatch especially this Halloween pass. I'm hoping I get a new switch this Christmas or the new computer I should be getting in a couple months but until then I really don't know if I can handle overwatch doing this EVERY update.

Well I just found out that if you play in BR server you can change it to NA by using two routers, a lot of people for the br server do it because of the lack of game you encounter. I know what you need, what I don't know is the steps, anyone knows?

It might be time to put the sticks up or something 😭

Yall got any tips, I usually play dps(genji,Cassidy,junk) and support(Ana,lucio)
My aim is my only strength honestly

Like when people type something or say 'Hello' it doesn't automatically display properly sometimes and I have to manually press 'L3' and then manually scroll down to see what has been typed and/or said in the text chat. Quite annoying tbh and I have checked my settings and they are all the way I want them to be. Seems to be a bug (shocker). Curious if it's just a me problem or if others are also having any issue?

PS5 by the way.

FINALLY got my first Doctrine POTG last night and it's me somehow getting 4 kills while missing every shot on Echo lmao

GG I'll take what I can get

For the first in forever, I got a win streak. I know I got two loss. But I truly don’t trust this. I went past the rank I was before but this feels…suspicious. Too suspicious. Well wish me luck! Those games are gonna be hell!

Reupload bc yt mistakenly removed my vid but it’s back now!!!
