Bugged Match Unspecified

Bug Report
1

So I just joinned this match, and it’s obviously bugged:

  • The timer is at 5:45 and not moving

  • The map objective at the top says Unspecified

  • The attacking team is stuck inside the 3rd spawn area (doors are closed)

  • Spawn rooms do not exist, if you return to your spawn area you cannot change character…

Cannot progress, game will not start (or continue, whichever)

Nothing is happening

Update:

I wasn’t able to view the replay until now, since it kept saying the game was in progress. What appears to have happened is that the attacking team won with 5:45 on the timer but it seems the game did not shutdown afterward, and as people left the game, replacement players kept joining a game that had already finished.

I’m currently in one of these bugged games. It’d be funny if it weren’t for the fact that I couldn’t trust Blizzard in the first place.

Same experience here on the 17th. The lack of acknowledgement is disappointing.

Same here. Was on Hollywood, stuck in defender’s last spawn, the theatre. Was a game of MH.

Happened to me on Dorado, I even managed to get into that lobby twice in half an hour (not in a row).

Hi! This happened to me, unfortunately, i found a way to fix it and not be put back in the game. The only way i found to stopping it is to go on social and block/avoid as teammate one of the players in that game. It wont put u in the same game again :slight_smile:

I just joined one of these, actually. It was funny because of how mentally insane we all went but… it was kinda annoying too.

I got a penalty for leaving one of these pretty annoying

I just lost my endorsement level 5 I’ve had for years because of this bug. I’m done caring about OW I think. This game is just disappointing. We all would have been better off if it didn’t happen IMO. Shame.

So… Is Blizzard thinking about addressing this issue? I’m about to receive a penalty.
Edit: Just did. Received a 12-game penalty. Thank you Blizzard! That was totally my bad :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

this is still happening

Same here for the Mystery Heroes gamemode.

  • Payload is at checkpoint already
  • Both Attacker Spawns are closed off
  • Payload is closed off even though it’s at the end.
  • Timer says 5:31 in this one compared to the 5:45 OP mentioned

I have seen this happen several time in the last week or so. always timer is stopped and attacker spawn doors are closed locking them in.

still happens, hopefully it will be patched tomorrow

Lost my endorse 5 due to it and dropped the game for weeks. I just couldn’t be bothered. Being punished for a bug in such a way was just gross to me. :confused:
