Getting massive ping spikes since ~Dec 20

Technical Support

I have been pretty much unable to play overwatch 2 ever since the holidays began (roughly since december 20). It seems almost every match I get put into, my ping and IND just spikes constantly, creating massive rubber banding and teleportation issues. My ping and IND is normally 50-60ms and 20ms, respectively. But these past few days, I am getting spikes in the 200-400ms range (for both ping and ind) all the time.

Overwatch is the only game that has been giving me any issues. Even other blizzard/activision titles (namely world of warcraft and warzone 2) have been perfectly fine.

The issue is not my connection. I have ran endless network tests with multiple different tools and my connection is fine. Using a VPN does not fix the issue, either.

I don’t know what to do. Are the servers just overloaded from there being so many people on during the holidays or what?

Haven’t run into this myself. Can we see the endless network tests?

Connections to other services aren’t a good way to test the connection. Just run a WinMTR to the Blizzard servers like the sticky says to do.
