Actions speak louder than words. Your support said they do not revert leaver penalties. That is NOT okay. You are able to tell whose fault it was that they left

Yes the applying update bug is a thing it will say that then not load into the match as well as the game completely freezing and you needing to restart your pc

when frozen in applying update a temp fix is you opening task manager ending process tree and restarting overwatch

I ran into this bug when I was about 40+ wins into my open Q games this season and got kicked out of a comp game w/ penalty. I just got my 50th win in open Q but did not get my top500 rank… Does this mean my 50 win counter is reset so that I have to win another 50 games to get placed in Top 500???.. I’d rather not since GM Q time is like 20 minute a game…

Hey Craig, will leaver penalties and season bans by affected players be reset with the fix?

That’s not good enough when people are getting season bans.

Idk if its listed because I wont bother reading all your issues, but you should fix replays to properly load like back in OW1. Everytime I get a sick play and I wanna rewatch it I’m stuck in map intro screen and I have to restart several times (sometimes even the game) to be able to see it and get rid of the error - something which never happened in OW1.

I’ll save everyone some time. If you respond to the community manager he won’t respond back.

you not bothering to read it ends up in your problem sticking around

I am but another victim this bug and I really don’t understand how this is being brushed off under the rug with “apologies” when people are getting SEASON BANNED or suspended for 8 hours as I was for something completely out of their control.

This is ridiculous. Send it to some YouTuber and get more attention to this absolutely massive issue (it really is), maybe that’ll make them care.

Finally, this problem has been acknowledged. I’ll wait until an actual fix is out before I get another penalty. :eyes:

Someone in the bug forum sent a ticket to support asking, and the short answer is no. Because the game can’t tell if a person left on purpose or otherwise.

Then they should blanket unsuspend everyone. I don’t care if it helps people with bad intentions. We should NOT be penalized for something out of our control. I’m on an 8 hour ban now, and it’s something I’ve dumped money into.

I’m going to guess the update doesn’t contain PvE.

so apparently since your suggestion so kindly was to load into the practice range how would i then solve the issue of not even being able to load into the practice range? @craig I am now basically having a game with cosmetics that are basically rendered worthless just because i am totally left without resolution to even load a practice range. Great job indie company blizzard even rito does ur s**t better than you guys!!! <3 love from rito
by the way i have opened 2 separate tickets with you guys, ticket number #91434632 and ticket number #91443237 within a span of 24 hours at different working times for different regions both NA and asia pacific. BOTH replies let me state this again BOTH REPLIES to both ticket numbers are EXACTLY THE SAME not a single word is different at all. Good job i guess blizzard Mr Indie Game Developer

The funny thing is this has happened last season as well they refuse to fix serious issues with the hotfix system and just force you to find the information that you need to load a training range before hand

ive seen it when trying to save potg’s but it would quickly go away

So how will devs compensate us? its 100% blizzard problem.
