    Mercy and More Nerfed in Overwatch 2 Season 3

    Blizzard extends a helping hand to some Support Heroes, except Mercy.

This patch will offer some buffs to most of the support Heroes in Overwatch 2, except for Mercy who is actually getting nerfed a bit.

    When it comes to support Heroes in ranked and "high level play" Mercy was...

    Blizzard Wants to Make Overwatch 2 Ranked Play Suck a Little Less

    The community has been vocal about their problems with ranked play and changes are coming.

    In the coming weeks, Blizzard plans to make some changes to Overwatch 2 that should make both matchmaking and ranked competitive play a little bit better. These are areas that fans have been complaining about for months, ever since the game's release really, that are only now getting addressed.

    In their latest developer blog, Blizzard says that they have "seen feedback on matches...

    Total Gaming Network's 2022 Games of the Year

    It is time once more to talk about the best games that have come out over the past year. As the case has been with previous years, this list of games only includes the titles that I have personally played to some degree. In addition, the games on this list are games that were released in 2022 unless otherwise stated for some specific reason. As I am the only one posting content on the site, this is as much a "Total Gaming Network Game of the Year" as it is my personal Game of the Year selection. ...

    Critical Issue Delays Mei's Return to Overwatch 2

    The mid-season patch has been delayed to an unspecified time.

    On October 31, Blizzard gave Mei mains at least one reason to be afraid. It was that day when Mei was disabled in Overwatch 2 due to an issue with her Ice Wall ability letting players access inaccessible places and out of bounds areas in maps. A fixed Mei was set to return as part of the mid-season update, but that patch has now encountered some issues of its own. That update was initially set to be out today for players....

    Double XP and a Free Skin Offered as Apology for Overwatch 2's Bad Launch

    What will the apology compensation be for Overwatch 2 as a whole though?

    Blizzard is offering players double XP, a weapon charm, and a free skin in an effort to apologize for the abysmal launch of Overwatch 2. The studio extended a written apology to fans for the myriad of issues that impacted the game for several days right when the game launched on October 4, 2022.

    Overwatch 2 will have several double XP weekends coming up that will let players catch up. The game was...

    Modern Warfare 2 Players Need a Phone Number to Play

    Pre-paid phone numbers may not work.

    Activision Blizzard seems to be very keen on ensuring their potential players have mobile phones. You guys all have phones, right? When Overwatch 2 launched just last week, Blizzard had a policy in place right from the get-go that you needed a cellphone in order to play the game. The catch there was that this ruled out those using pre-paid phones.

    For a lot of people, this meant that they were now unable to play the game (Overwatch)...

    Overwatch 2 Suffering from DDoS Attacks on Launch Day

    Blizzard and server issues with a new game launch, name a more iconic duo.

    Overwatch 2 technically launched today, and you may be inclined to believe that were you able to actually get into the game. Unfortunately for most people not in a special priority queue, you have been met with long login wait times or just no response from the server at all.

    According to Blizzard president Mike Ybarra, the Overwatch 2 servers have been hit with "a mass DDoS attack." According...

  • Overwatch 2 Framerate Cap Upped to 600 FPS

    in News

    Overwatch 2 Framerate Cap Upped to 600 FPS

    This is all due to the power of the upcoming RTX 4090.

    When Overwatch 2 comes out, you will be able to run it at 600 FPS if you want (and can). This is apparently thanks to Nvidia teaming up with Blizzard on Nvidia Reflex support for Overwatch 2, which subsequently allowed the studios to increase the cap. The two companies are taking that slow and pathetic 400 FPS cap from the first Overwatch and cranking it up another 200 FPS.

    Nvidia confirmed that framerates of over...

    Overwatch, Diablo, and Call of Duty Coming to Game Pass

    Cross-platform play also confirmed for these Activision Blizzard titles.

    Head of Xbox, Phil Spencer, took not to the Xbox Wire page but rather to the official Microsoft Blog to talk about some of the changes and concerns over Microsoft's potential acquisition of Activision Blizzard. In the blog, Spencer tries to put to bed fears that long-standing multi-platform titles like Call of Duty would suddenly become Xbox exclusive.

    In the blog post, Spencer also says that franchises...

    Blizzard to Halt Overwatch Loot Box Sales this Month

    The end of a (crappy) era.

    We already knew that Blizzard was doing away with paid loot boxes when Overwatch 2 launches in October, but we did not know until today when they would stop selling loot boxes in the original Overwatch. A new update from Blizzard says that they will finally sunset the sale of paid loot boxes on August 30.

    Ahead of that date, Blizzard is doing one last hurrah with an Anniversary Remix event. The event, which began today, will give you about three...

    Activision Blizzard Lost Millions of Players from 2021 to 2022

    But the number of developers has increased.

    Compared to the same point in time in 2021, Activision Blizzard is down several million players. The company's latest earnings call revealed that monthly active users went from 372 million at the end of March 2022 to 361 million players at the end of June.

    At the end of June in 2021, Activision Blizzard was pulling in 408 million monthly active users. This means that from June 30, 2021 to June 30, 2022, Activision Blizzard lost...

    Blizzard to Potentially Sell Overwatch Skins for $45

    So long loot boxes, hello overpriced microtransactions.

    When Overwatch 2 launches later this year, the loot boxes we have all come to know and hate will be no more. Replacing the RNG-filled boxes will be seasonal Battle Passes and apparently some optional cosmetic microtransactions that will allow you to, presumably, buy the skins you want without delay.

    This all sounds super great, until you hear that Blizzard recently sent out a survey that seems to suggest they are...

    Is Overwatch 2 Doomed to Fail?

    Reinventing a service or game is never easy, whilst there are a few that have done it in the past, it’s often not something that turns out all that well. There’s a reason why many services have a certain formula and approach that they stick to and is proven to work. Many of the biggest genres like betting for example will seem familiar in how they operate and even in the bonuses as players can check BetMGM Registration code in Ontario for bonuses for example – operators won’t try to reinvent...
