OCE network bug

I’ve played Overwatch since 2016 and have had a constant ping (ms) of 35-40 since then. Until about a month ago I’ve had nothing but 90-120 ms every game. I live in South Australia and I’ve asked many other South Australian PC and Console players if theyve had the same issue. They all confirmed that they have the exact same problem and that it must be Blizzard’s fault (all our internet speeds are fine n fast n dandy). Overwatch Team, there has to be a fault on your end in regards to networking because this game is frustratingly unplayable to me and this needs to be fixed and acknowledged. Thank you. Here is a WinTMR.

same, TPG fibre here. I left OW for a few weeks to play division 2, came back a few days ago, i’ve gone from my old ping which was always 40-50 constant, to now pinging 80-90 constant.

My point exactly. Good to have confirmation on the post that someone has the same problem. Hopefully the maintenance theyre doing right now fixes it.

If there’s still issues once maintenance starts we’d like to start gathering some info on this. Once we have enough we’ll be able to have it sent up to be looked into. I’ve listed what we’ll want below!

  • What server are you being placed on? This can be found in the netgraph by pressing Ctrl + Shift + N.
  • What ISP are you on?
  • A WinMTR test ran using the IP address in the netgraph. We’ll want to run this for a full match before exporting the results. When posting results, please encase them in a set of ``` (on the tilde key) like so:
    ```
    Link
    ```

Wow and i thought i was the only one. Ive just spent a week with tpg doing tests from their end and my end and doing all the blizzard tests and apparently everything is normal… but i know that aint right. I was getting 38-48 ms and now 70-90 all the time. South Australian here also. Tpg tells me that up to the 7th hop which they say they control is all fine. My issue is on the 12th hop every time. I believe thats the sydney ip? Anyway here is one of many test results.

Thank you. Please help us out, you’re killing us here.

Yeah ive been having this issue for 2 weeks or so now i contacted my isp they did tests etc like u guys said and there was nothing wrong on there end apparently im also with TPG in Adelaide. Trying to play ranked with 90-115 ping is really hard especially on hitscan which is frustrating. I use to get constant 45-50 ping forever now its 90-115 only on overwatch aswell. Couldnt post this earlier some forum bug made it so i couldn’t login and had to remove parental controls. Did all the blizzard article network issues troubleshooting its still the same its something on there end with the server etc please look into a fix i want to play but there’s no point with the high latency.
Cheers

I am also having this issue. Constant High ping, normally its 40-50 - Tasmania.
This is @#%%$@

Hey all,

For folks on iiNet/Internode, can you check out this thread for me? We need some information there. I’m checking some of your other ISPs to see if you’re also impacted, but for the smaller ISPs I may not be able to see enough data to confirm it.

after 2 weeks of trouble shooting with tpg and what felt like their whole technical support team from support reps to engineers, they were unsuccessful in identifying the issue. i told them a friend of mine had no issue over at Aussie Broadband and then terminated my account with TPG and switched providers. i only wish i did it sooner, also im back to my normal latency (44ms) again with no issues.
