REPRODUCIBLE Sym TP bug with video

Bug Report
1

This is an example of the teleporter selfdestructing on map geometry, in a spot I’ve been able to reproducibly use. As you can see, it’s finicky and inconsistent but some sort of hidden rule of geometry will destroy our TP. This happens on many maps and I will populate the post with further examples as I find them.

NB - This is an absolutely gamebreaking bug which can lose the fight and is totally unprecedented for any other hero. What other heroes press a button and have the ability go “poof” and go on CD? Imagine if pressing recall on Tracer had a chance to just not work yet still go on CD. It would be hotfixed within a day. If this is too difficult to fix, please just refund the cooldown when it happens. Easy and everyone is happy.

NBNB - You also can’t TP turrets off of a payload but that’s another post to exhaust myself on.

It would be extremely nice if they fixed this. They could refund the TP if it dies within a margin of it casting, or have it be pushed away if the hitbox is inside of something, or simply disallow you from placing it in those spots. This is something that happens to me reasonably often as Symmetra and it’s always super grating to have the TP explode instantly and then have to wait 12 punishing seconds to try again.

THIS is so frustrating. I’ve made a post about this in the bug report section months ago but to no avail.

She’s not allowed bugs that help her, but she’s allowed bugs that hold her back :cowboy_hat_face:

Yet another one of the exact same scenario, with it affecting my ally, denying our planned push. Please understand how devastating this bug is:

Crazy that this bug hasn’t been fixed in the YEARS since this post was made
