Losing hero and total time played in my Career Profile

On launch day of Overwatch 2 I was able to get a screenshot of my time played, whenever I logged on today I noticed that I am missing lots of hours on a couple of heros.
The most notable being:

  • Total time played (1,623 → 1,126)

  • Ana (313 hours → 142 hours)

  • Mercy (101 hours → 42 hours)

At first I thought this was because QP was no longer in the game, but you are still able to filter to it so I don’t think that is the issue.

I’m having the same issue. I had well over 100 hours on Mercy at the end of Overwatch 1 but it went down to around 40 after the merge. At first I thought that maybe it was still transferring over so I played a few games to see if that would give it enough time to fix itself. After I went back and checked though, my playtime on Widowmaker suddenly dropped from 94 hours to 9, when it had been fine before those games. All that Mercy playtime was a huge point of pride for me and I’m really upset about this.

If it helps any, I played Overwatch 1 on PS4 exclusively and am playing Overwatch 2 on PS5.

i feel that… my Ana was crazy i was about halfway to surpassing my most played hero only to have her disappear from second place, shes not even in my top 5 heroes now. My friend noticed it and her Mercy playtime as well, my mercy playtime is down by alot too.

tbh I feel like blizzard is running through the mud rn. They are probably a bit over their heads atm. One thing is fixed and something else breaks. It sucks cause tbh ive been there, it sucks.

But as annoyed as i am over a lot of this i do have faith that once things start getting smoothed over and dealt with, (hopefully sooner rather than later), that most issues will slowly disappear. I tbh wish blizzard had done a slow roll out rather than just dropping everyone in at the same time etc. As like a touch of the water to feel the temperature, spot bugs before servers were packed etc. theres things that will always not go right day 1 but its a wee bit on the frustrating side because theres a lot going on all at once. I am quite frustrated of this launch, (its been pretty rough, i couldnt even play the first two days). And well i may somewhat understand the flip side of everything, but i gotta say man its starting to get to me.

I mean i dont work here so i cant truly say whats what here, but thats my thoughts on everything (including this bug).

Do you think we’ll get all are Career lifetime stats back to how they were, I’m having the same problem. It’s very upsetting to me and I really would like your thoughts

I hope so, i (as the poster above me alsp said) take a fair amount of pride with my heroes.

Not only that i often compare stats with friends and players in higher ranks. (Yeah sure ik ik stats dont make you win). but for example if i compare bap stats with higher ranked players i can see things like their average healing is lower than mine etc. Means i should balance myself as a player to maybe doing more damage during team fights etc. (bad example but you get the idea).

Its not gonna make me top 500 but having that baseline of results and stats helps me formulate better play styles so i can get better at the game and at heroes im not the best at. I think these stats are important for people like me so i 100% agree

I put alot of hours in this game and what’s being show with my stats is false. Very upsetting and I take alot of pride in my stats too, I care. If all that’s gone I’m extremely frustrated and honestly mad.

This happened to me too! My Moira hours were 120, I checked my OW2 career profile, and she was down to 62?? Not to mention I’m missing hundreds of hours from D.Va, Pharah, Cassidy, and others collectively :frowning: I hope this gets resolved soon, stats mean a lot to me personally
Edit: not to mention that some of my heroes are completely untouched in terms of hours

Do you personally think it will get fixed? Really like some reassurance. I don’t see much reason of playing if my stats aren’t getting recorded.

As long as my stats are accurate and true I’m happy. Has this ever happened in the past? Sorry if I’m asking a lot of questions this is just very upsetting to me

Same here! And don’t worry about it at all! :3 This hasn’t happened to me before, so this is a shock. I completely get it! I’ve been so bothered and upset since I found out, considering Moira is one of my most important mains

I noticed as soon as I played a game of Lucio in quick play my time for Lucio just reset in that mode. I had around 15 or so hours with Lucio in quick play and it disappeared after I played a match with him so kinda weird hopefully blizzard fixes this.

Very kind thank you. One more question, do we know when the next update is. I want to play but I feel like I shouldn’t cause nothing is getting tracked I believe (to me I see no point playing). Do you know if my games are still get tracked regardless of them showing up on my caeer profile or not?

I read some update stuff from Blizzard, all of the stats and other stuff are saved and archived, it’s just having trouble displaying it. They’re working on it right now but it might be a few days. I would just keep checking periodically. I’m personally gonna keep playing since it tracks all of it regardless.
