Connection issue bug

I lose connection to games randomly and get put on the main menu for a while before it reconects me to the game but my friends say i am still in game and if i press keys whilst on main menu i am still moving in game. this is not an uncommon occurrence at this point it can happen multiple times per game

This isn’t a bug, but rather a connectivity issue. Please edit your post and relocate to #technical-support. Include a WinMTR in your reply.

There’s a bit of lag happening in your ISP’s network (186ms response time), but no major packet loss. Does anything else disconnect when this happens?

no it seems to be only my overwatch, i am normally in a discord call at the same time which i still retain connection

Okay, since that’s the case, I recommend opening a ticket with the staff (click Support in the top right corner of any forum page). They may be able to track down what’s closing that connection but not others.
