Replay Camera Bug

This issue happens even after I restart the game or pc. It also happens regardless of map or mode (pc/arcade/comp)

When the replay first loads in with the free-moving camera, I (as the camera) spawn partially in the ground. I can rotate and look around, but I cannot move from that spot until I get un-stuck a couple of seconds after.

If I want to record something that happens to another part of the map, I can fly over there. However, if I time hop backwards or forwards (regardless if i’m using the bar or the 20 sec back/forwards buttons), the camera resets all the way back to where it first spawned, halfway in the ground and unable to move away for a bit.

First person/third person on a specific player does not have this issue. I can time hop with that with no camera resetting.
This is making it really hard to want to record something in specific, because as soon as I set the time marker to when it happened, it flies me back, and I cannot get the camera set up again in the right spot on time.

While I do believe this to be a bug, please try switching to any player view (tap any of the the Function keys if you are on PC). This is often a quick fix.

I’m seeing this same thing. Switching views helps but doesn’t prevent it from happening again the next time one time skips.

This happens when you are in free roam camera mode then skip the time.
Switching to any player view will not help fixing it. We have to wait for the fix from the blizzard team. This bug is happening to everyone :frowning:
