Why can't I use training mode in PTR?

Did anyone else get this? Maybe they’re updating the training mode!

Thank you!!! Hoping for a new balance patch when it comes back. I wonder why they’d need to shut down training mode though…

There was a bug with the training bots and Sigma’s ultimate. Might be fixing it.

Honestly hope they improve the AI,

Was playing custom game with AI today and my “hard” Ai Allies just kept one vs 6 the entire Enemy team. (Aka feeding)

(Have to stick to medium I guess)

Also we need some expansion to the training grounds

I doubt that would require completely disabling the training range though unless it was something that caused crashing

Hopefully they’re updating and expanding the training grounds and testing it internally before putting it back on the PTR. The training range definitely needs updating. For one, we need flying bots that fly in erratic patterns and shoot at you so people can practice against a training version of pharah.

I also want one big training bot with 1000 Hp, so I can practice more as a Tank buster in the practice range.

The patch notes list that they fixed a bug with sigmas ult interacting with training bots so now I highly doubt it
