Even more Sombra Bugs in 1.26/1.27/1.28 [With Video's]

Thank you all :smiley:

I will keep on going to record my game in search of bugs and every time I find new ones to add on top of these and sometimes it hopefully will raise the awareness of blizzard and even more players.

  • added Bug 10 where Sombra can’t go into stealth

That would be great :smiley:

Video of translocator bugs I’ve been dealing with. Thought I was destroying it or it got destroyed but it happens so often that it can’t be a reoccurring coincidence.

Thanks, I added it to the main post.
I don’t really know the layout of Sombras on controllers but what I get out of your video it seems like “R1” is the normal Using TL (“e” on PC) button but sometimes it just destroys it by pressing “R1” it seems random but do you think it could have a trigger that makes it do that?

Anyway, this is a pretty serious bug. I hope it gets fixed

(Ps. I know its rude to ask but could someone please reply I can’t post updates on new bugs if not because I’m not allowed to post twice in a row. Would be nice, Thanks :sweat_smile:)

you’d be correct. For console players R1 is the teleport button. And that’s what I thought was happening too but it happens too many times for it to disappear precisely when I’m trying to teleport.

  • Added bug 12 where Sombras hack changes targets without resetting

So does it happen after/when or before you press R1

Because if it’s after/when it could be:

  • A hardware (controller) problem maybe some kind of short circuit If you can try a different controller to be sure it’s a bug on the games side

  • Some kind of Game sided but that randomly swaps the controller layout or maybe it has a trigger of some kind that changes the layout?

If its before:

  • I have no idea what it could be really.

So for the end:

Somvra Sorry for the quote its just so you see this for sure.
If I remember correctly you play on xbox do you have the same issue as TacoReaper or is this a Ps4 only problem?

It always happens precisely as I’m pressing the button. Like right when I press it it gets destroyed and goes on the 2 second cooldown

Yes for sure !!! It happens occasionally now that I think about it.

This game is such an unbelievable trash. How can such a bugy game be esports. Ridicoulous. Trash. Even to trashy for the trashbin. Stop playing this retarded game. The ranking system is a big joke. I lost 8 games in a row with 4 gold medals. So I get punished, cause my teams are bad?

  • Added bug 13 in which Sombra can Contest the payload by translocating into it (game-breaking blizzard please see this and fix that thanks.

Warning: Don’t do this in an official mode of Blizzard.

So its a Bug game sided :thinking: I don’t have a console so if someone had time could you try and test Symmetras Teleporter? I mean just go into a private game pick sym place Tele and press R1 (or whatever button it is on Xbox) normally you should not be teleported but if the but is not only Sombra related sometimes you should get teleported. If you understand what I’m trying to tell xD

I wouldn’t go this far but right now the new Sombra is really buggy (even a few bugs that break the game) so I hope Blizzard sees this and can start working on fixes.

Wait, are you saying that if you press the interact button to destroy the translocator on Sombra while you are next to Symmetra’s teleport, then you will teleport first instead of destroying the translocator?

There is this problem with sombra on console since the last patch, that I thought was mine but nope, more friends are reporting it, I play on xbox and when you hack someone your frames drop dramaticaly, everything looks glitchy but only during the hack then you get frame problems for a bit, just happened to me yesterday and it’s so annoying, but I’ve been told in PS4 te game sometimes crash when you do and MP, will try to bring some video fotage later today

Well, that’s not what I’m trying to say but that is, in fact, true and intended by Blizzard you use Syms Teleporter instead of destroying TL if you’re in range of it and press the interaction key.

But what I’m trying to say is the bug TacoReaper had and you too apparently:

where if you pressed “R1” (TL key “E” on PC don’t know which one on xbox) TL gets sometimes destroyed and goes on a 2s cooldown could be to the whole layout or just for Sombra so to test it someone who has a console version of Overwatch would need to try it with sym by going into a private game, picking Sym, place teleported, then stay in range of it but instead of pressing the interaction key press the Key that’s bindet to Transloceter on Sombra and teleported on Sym and see if it will teleport you (what it should not because you don’t press the interactions key) Its kinda hard to explain and I sadly can’t test it my self

What I basically want to test is, is the bug just Sombra related or overall interaction key related.

I aware of that bug but blizzard already said they fixed this one on PTR so I did not include it in my list
