The shop has a progression level

I literally cant believe this but i guess im not surprised. Idk if its a bug or what but when looking at single item non bundle shop pages it shows progression level 0 next to the word “shop” in the top left. I know its not the heroes level cuz the moira wicked reign skin says 0 even tho mine is at 7. It also shows for the hero purchase page on the just the hero option

Finally the sort of progression that would actually encourage us to play.

If this is real then I am maxing it out immediately!

Was gonna make a new thread but I found yours…

So does ANYONE have a higher shop level than 0?

will anyone admit it if they do?

You could make a top 500 leaderboard for it that rewards a cow, whale and pig player icon.

Some of these takes, I swear.

No, the shop doesn’t have a ‘progression level’. It’s a visual bug, because that’s the precise location where the progression level icon sits when you’re looking at individual heroes on their hero page.

It’s the same with the D.VA T-Pose visual bug that appears when you look at some of her intros. The T-Pose appears because when you’re previewing the animations, the floor isn’t rendered, so you can see the T-Posing D.VA that sits beneath it.

One would think someone would have tested this out and fixed it?

It’s not gamebreaking, but for a big company to have stuff like this just hanging out in their production release is pretty gross.

You’d be surprised how easy it is to miss bugs.

Especially since 90% of the stuff available in the shop is bundles where that visual bug doesn’t appear.

Perhaps now that people have found said bug, it will be fixed. As for the T-Pose bug, that I don’t think will ever be fixed, because it has to do with scenery not being loaded when you preview animations. When you view that same animation at the end of a game, the scenery is present so you don’t see the T-Posing D.VA.

There are “well you gotta jump on this thing on a sunday then use the super item while facing 45 degrees to the west” bugs… then there’s 2 clicks into a storefront bugs.

At the very least someone should be going into the shop and going through the process of buying something for each item as a test.

The constant discovery of basic QA level bugs, bothers me. Blizzard polish used to be a thing. Now it is not.

You’re probably right about it never being fixed. But it’s because they don’t care or test. When you sell something, you present it in it’s best form, you don’t go… “well it’ll look ok when you use it in reality”.

You’re giving excuses for things that a AAA should not be letting slip through or asking it’s customers to accept. Especially when asking for money.
