(Fixed) Nepal, shadow/lighting issue

Seems that the patch halfway through season 6 has broken something on both the daytime and dawn version of the Nepal map, on all 3 segments of the map.

It appears to be something with how light and shadows work, as some areas and objects are incredible dark for no reason. Most noticeable is the dropship spawn areas, the ship itself is almost entirely pitch black while the doors are not.

Some other objects such as statues are having the same issue, being almost pitch black for no reason.

Thanks for the screenshots, I forgot to mention I’m on console but I’m glad it looks that way on PC as well.

It’s incredibly jarring. I thought the map didn’t load properly the first time I saw it but it keeps happening. It’s not just the map the heroes themselves will also appear extremely dark in some areas almost like a silhouette. They should disable to map until its fixed.

I just noticed the effect on other maps, but it’s usually the background outside the play area. I don’t know what it’s called, skybox? One good example is the ice outside of the practice range.

EDIT: Not sure when it happened but this has been fixed now.
