Hey there, thanks for the post. We've been digging into this since we first heard about it and are working to get a fix out quickly. We do consider this an exploit, and we want to caution people not to abuse this bug.

Cheers

Currently sitting in a 10 minute solo queue for support, came here to see if others had noticed anything "off."

Paging u/BillWarnecke to put this on his radar.

EDIT: solo queue competitive for support ended up being 12 minutes.

Thanks for the ping, should be better now, sorry for that

The queue times are back after the latest update.

Hey there, we made some more adjustments and things should be back to normal. Thanks for the note, sorry for that. Cheers

Hey there. Our patch note release process is manual, and sometimes mistakes happen. We're still planning on releasing the Anniversary event on the date we have had scheduled, which isn't, and never was, today.

After my last comment I just had another 11 min comp queue with my duo and I both queuing for support only (PS4 NA East). It’s 4pm on a Sunday too. Trust me when I say I’m not complaining because I know this is norm for DPS but it’s definitely not the norm for tank and support role queues. Something is definitely not right here.

u/billwarnecke - I’m very active on this sub and there’s have been a LOT of posts and comments from users experiencing this same issue in the last couple of weeks. Some users have also mentioned reporting this issue on the Blizz forums as well with no response that I’m aware of. Is that this something on your radar by any chance?

Hey there, I made a note on another thread, just a bit ago. We looked into this and made some changes, thanks for the reports and sorry for the hassle. Let us know how it looks over the next few days. Cheers

Hey all, thanks for the reports. We looked into this and made some adjustments to help. Sorry for the hassle, please let us know if times seem better going forward. Thanks!

Lots of love to our partners in the Overwatch League! <3

Hey there, an update we pushed caused a problem. We're working on resolving the issue now, apologies for the disruption to your games.

Why not on console?

Hey there, there was a little delay on PS4 getting the update but it should be all set now. Cheers

I’m pretty sure that’s unintentional. It must have a variable that just increments based on the first number, and since it’s own name already has a number (76) it starts counting from it.

It’s intentional.

Is this also on ps4?

Yes

Hey there, Bahrain is indeed a new location that's being introduced with the 1.47 update that was released today.

Germany is a location that has been available for a long time but is only used during abnormally high demand times like this patch. While we want the best network quality possible for players in all locations, more sites affect matchmaking quality, so we're always evaluating that trade-off.

Will this be on the latest patch with the fly-jump nerf? Really want to see how Echo looks without the abusable hyper-mobility.

Hey there, they'll be playing on the most recent build that went to PTR late on Friday night.

Cheers!

This is definitely a late patch. It seems to have been posted at 8:27pm.

Sometimes you gotta shake it up.

Hope you have a great weekend.

Hey there, I did just update the PTR. We moved a bit faster with this one (kicked people offline) given it's a bit late in the night where we are, sorry for that disruption.

Patch notes are here, hope you have a great weekend.
