Servers keep crashing (Season 11) *Battle.net problem?

I have the exact same issue. Getting disconnected multiple times a game both in queue and mid game on xbox. started having issues disconnecting in season 10 but they’ve gotten way worse since season 11 started.

Server error middle of the OW2 match, I play defense as a Mauga, at the last minute I fly out of the match due to a connection error. Usually in a similar situation I don’t even get the chance to return to the game, but this time I was able to log back and avoiding getting another penalty after leaving. This happens to me quite often these days.

This has been happening to me on multiple computers on multiple networks, so i don’t think it’s an issue on my end.

Last night, disconnected from 4 games but was able to rejoin by restarting OW2.

This morning, disconnected from one game TWICE, then the following game once. I am now sitting waiting for ban to end. This game is unplayable.

‘YOU ARE SUSPENDED’. I can’t even complete daily challenges like ‘Complete 3 games’ because of this connection problem. If I fly out of the match for about ten seconds, the game does not give any possibility to return to the match, because a replacement player has already been put in my place. This penalty system sucks!

I was hoping the midseason update would fix it but I still can’t log in and it’s frustrating that I can’t play on my main account when I’ve played since the open beta 2016, had literally everything from overwatch 1, played every comp season since season 1 of overwatch 1 and top 500 in a few arcade modes, going into overwatch 2 I’ve had hit level 200 in the battle pass in every season, I’ve gotten the majority of stuff that came from events excluding legendary missions, and 5k gauntlet rounds. I’m pissed because I’m not banned or suspended and I can’t log in, I’ve given a lot of money to blizzard because I love overwatch and the fact I can’t log in on my main account is (insert profanity) frustrating. I just want this fixed so badly. I haven’t been able to log in since basically the beginning of the season and thinking I can’t get the new titles and icons from the new update is saddening. Please fix this blizzard. There are like 4 others having the same issue that I found online

I very rarely get disconnected, but every couple of weeks I’ll get a few days when, out of, say, 10 server IPs the game will connect me to, 6 will get horrible packet loss and exponentially increasing ping spikes that will get into the thousands. Oftentimes I won’t even be able to leave the game without waiting more than a minute for the screen to load. This is NOT an issue with my connection, I have tried many pingplotter solutions and for every other provider I’ve tested, I’ve had no issues. But on some specific IPs for Overwatch servers, simply no information will get through. Latest issues were on the day of the midseason patch, but it seems to be mostly fixed now.
I have made a post previously detailing the specific addresses that were causing me problems before on this account if anyone wants to compare, but I’m pretty sure those were changed in the meantime.
My current conspiracy theory is that Blizzard wants people to play Arcade more since that’s basically all I’ve been doing to avoid getting leaver penalties XD

Same issue. I started playing season 9 and had a few crashes here and there through season 10; but in season 11 it got way worse. The only solution I’ve found around it is to reconnect to my wifi after every match which is just getting annoying, and even then it doesn’t work sometimes…
It’s gotten to the point where the game’s unplayable for me apart from a few matches in the start. My connection is fine in literally every other game, and it is for Overwatch as well, but the game seems to just disconnect me for no reason every few matches. Before this, I grinded out the BP fully to the last title really early on into the season purely because I enjoyed it, but now I’m not even able to due to this.

I have been a regular player for years, and have probably quit mid-match less than a dozen times since I started playing in 2017 or so. I have been crashing out of games with “connection to server lost” and then the little reconnect just spinning pointlessly over and over.

I’ve updated my drivers, I’ve checked my FTTP internet, I’ve checked my IP, picked the repair and patch option for overwatch. Changed the graphics settings… I’ve run out of ideas and the more I play, the more I’m getting SUSPENDED. I’ve never been suspended and I can’t believe that this issue is still ongoing.
