Yeah I used the 388.13 for a short time and it didn't crash overwatch in the short time I used it but 388.13 wasn't playing nice with my other games it was giving me real bad stutter on grand theft auto 5 and locking to 45fps. I always reset my overclock to stock before playing overwatch.

Just had another game just now hoping the latest crash was a one off and this time it blue screened me with nvidia error. Luckily it happened mid match and I got back in in time to win the match. But guess I can't play this game any more until nvidia release a new driver because 388 was an instant crash the one before it crashed after a few mins and now 385.41 is crashing. This is on latest version of windows.

I probably went my first 500 hours on this game without a crash when I was on my 280x but that all changed when I updated my drivers and windows. Was really hoping it would be working perfectly on my new system as everything is different.

Edit: Just see they released a new driver 388.31 I will try that.

EDit: Just went to see the nvidia driver thread to see what people were saying about the new driver when I see people talking about windows auto updating there driver to 388.13 and just checked mine and guess what windows had changed my driver version without me asking WTF never knew nvidia done this.

So 385.41 has still never crashed on me it was windows updating to the 388.13 that has caused my crash.

You will probably see my post from a few weeks back up until then I had never had a single crash after a lot of hours but I was on out of date windows 10 and old AMD drivers as soon as I updated my amd drivers the problems started I still to this day can't play overwatch on that pc 3570k and 280x without "rendering device lost"

I installed done fresh install of windows latest version with completely new pc with gtx 1080 and the only driver I can find that doesn't crash overwatch is 385.41 any of the newer ones on latest windows is a crash for me.

My problem is now windows is updating my gtx 1080 graphics driver without me asking. No other games crash on either pc.

Thinking of trying overwatch. Is the GoTY edition worth it or should I just try bog standard

The game was just free this last weekend if you wanted to try it, too late now though.

Yeah don't pay extra for skins as soon as you sunk a few hours in the game you can get any skin you want and they keep bringing out better ones with each event.

All dlc is free on this game.

You can pay for extra loot box's but the game gives you so many just for playing you would have to be mad to buy any.

Anyone know if they will push Moira out in the current comp season? Or will they do the right thing and not import any changes until the end of the season?

i think they said she would be ready at the end of the week? Maybe I'm wrong.

She's good but easily countered. D'va's defense matrix swallows her orbs etc so that takes away most of her options.
 
done my placements 3700.. not to bad as i stopped playing after mercy changes were made last season as it ruined the game imo but she seems a lot more balanced now with cast res done some pretty sick sleeps on her during res :)
 
Im getting ******* sick of disconnects on my team.

Ive tanked 500SR in 2 days because on the second round, even on easy wins someone on my team disconnects.

I played 12 games this evening, and in 7 of them lost because of disconnects. The other 5 I walked over the enemy (seriously, when you tank this much MMR trashing the enemy team is easy as long as your team STAYS CONNECTED).

Its ruining the game for me.

Yeah blizzard really need to fix the game so many people getting the rendering device lost or just straight crashing.
Just look through the technical support section see how many new people every day have rendering device lost error.

Anytime your pc gets a tdr error overwatch will crash.
Windows is pushing out updates and the more people that update the less people that can play the game without crashing.

If you look at the sticky on the site AMD users need to use a driver before 17.7.2 because the 20 or so releases since then don't work with overwatch.

This was fine AMD before fall update as aAMD users could just use 17.7.1 to play overwatch but problem is now these old drivers do not work with the fall update.

The problem is getting worse as times go by and more people updating drivers windows.

I thought my problems would be gone switching to nvidia but I still get crashes the latest 3 drivers had to roll back to 385.41

It doesn't effect everyone it only when you get a tdr error the game just crashes. Any other game would keep going if your pc got a tdr.
 
I had a weird game yesterday. It was a control game on Oasis. It was 1-1 and in the final game it was still very balanced... the our only healer (Lucio, yes we were solo healing with Lucio!) casually announced he was going afk, thanks for the game. 30 seconds or so later he disconnected, just as we capped the point at about 90%. A man down we couldn't hold the enemy off and they took over and took it to victory. :(
