Get disconnected from server to main menu and can´t rejoin

Bug Report
1

Hello.

This bug occured a few times since last update.
I’m playing as usual and sudenly i get out of the game to main menu.
If i press rejoin match, nothing happens and a few seconds later i get a message on chat “Failed to connect to server”.
Strange is that i can continue chatting with the team i was playing with, but can’t rejoin match.
If the match is at the begining, i can still join a few minutes later, but at that time my team has already lost the match… not all bad as i don’t get suspended.
Problem is when the match is in an andvanced fase and this bug occurs.
If the match ends before i can rejoin, i get suspended… and penaltie points of course…
I could see that when this happens, i get many friends connecting back and starting Overwatch 2 at the same time and that is not usual.
Please check what’s happening since last update.
This never happened before and nothing on my hardware, software, internet, etc changed this last months.
Game version 2.6.1.0-116744 @ Windows 11 Home 22H2 (22621.2283) with everything updated.

I don’t know how it works if ur team still can win but you are not really connected to the match.
The problem here is bigger then that, cause it occured to me a few times now, and it can lead to a ban and it’s certainly not my fault…

Same here. Will launch a comp game, fails to connect, then receive a suspension for match abandonment
