Overwatch 2 Known Issues - October 25, 2022

so can someone please clarify what early access means if i cant play the game?
i get the LC-208 error, or the bc-153 error.
tried all the things that supposed to be the “solution” but still cant play…

I paid money for the beta, early access etc but now i just cant play??
All we read is “we are working on it”

GG Blizzard, well played again.

got in for a game near launch, been getting login error ever since.
The Game is completely UNPLAYABLE for most, why is this not a “known issue”

Their servers can’t handle the number of players, I try to login, get put in a queue and eventually get disconnect when the server is trying to find me a game server.

Not sure why they made it free to play if their server infrastructure can’t handle millions of people connecting at the same time. I will ask for a refund for my 40 euros if I can’t play tomorrow either.

They made it F2P because of Greed thats why …

a bug would be nice, the game is actually unplayable for maybe most people.

I got most of the heroes locked for some reason even though i’m a returning player.
I know im not the only one having this issue.
Also, the problem is not related to the merging accounts because im a PC only player.

The saddest part is that the game designers and the ones that make characters skins where so hyped about us seeing their work… now Internet is all over blizzard with dooming only while those designers expected to be congratulated and followed and loved… i wanted the same for them they did an amazing job with ow2 designs for heroes but no… here we are all angry and or sad because there’s tons of issues with the servers and unlockables

I was really hoping I’d wake up to some news… Progress… A working game, maybe

I would say at the top of that list is peoples whole accounts being wiped, not just one skin.

During that time I didn’t really keep counted how much OWL tokens after buying it and thought they gave a refund or whatever.

But don’t worry they refunded my tokens already

My account was fine this morning other than a few missing cosmetics. I had all my heroes unlocked. After playing a few matches I went back to the main menu to see that almost all my heroes were LOCKED! I could understand if it was an initial account merge error but this didn’t happen until almost 24hrs after my merge???!

Yep. Mine doesnt launch either. All my drivers are up to date, game has been removed and reinstalled. Deleted the battle.net folder, done all other known remediation steps outlined by Blizzard found here - Overwatch 2 Doesn't Launch - Blizzard Support and still no avail.

Really wish there was a voice chat on this forum so we could all vent to each other.

Played a few games at like 2 AM, had all my characters. Got into the game briefly just now and have less than half. Did not merge accounts, have always been PC. Also got dropped almost immediately as well.

Now I have this ugly cat icon, that I’ve been staring at that isn’t even my Xbox accounts icon LMAO

I have my skins, I think all of them, but I am treated as a new player. I cannot play D.Va for example, which is hilarious considering she has the Pacific Division skin equipped and that carried over.
I also kept having issues in queue. once it went to zero, the game failed to connect to the server and then, I had 20k people ahead of me again. Only worked when connecting to EU servers.
This whole launch is a total mess. Currently everything about OW which used to be a really wholesome game for me as a casual player, just feels really bad:
the massive launch issues, excluding people with prepaid phones (so everyone can be a hero, being inclusive etc is only when you have a post paid plan?), accounts losing their cosmetic, veteran players being treated as new players, the insanely greedy monetization. This game has lost so much of its magic for me, I wonder if I even want to keep playing once the issues are resolved.

Ouch that sucks idk if mine is right

Tbh it’s frustration. Once people are able to access the game they’re more than happy to commend designers. Unfortunately, the server issues prevent a lot of players from appreciating the work. I personally haven’t been able to log in since launch but was impressed with the Beta so am excited for when this begins to get sorted. :slight_smile:
