Overwatch 2 devs rush to repair a number of heroes after Could patch goes haywire

A mess of pesky bugs and glitches have crept into the Overwatch 2 servers after the Could 9 patch got here in to nerf all people’s favourite heroes, and to buff long-forgotten characters—and Blizzard is already on the case.

Due to the mid-season Overwatch replace, heroes like Doomfist and Sigma had been by chance nerfed into oblivion. A number of new glitches noticed Sigma’s final voiding all of his different talents, whereas Doomfist’s block was merely made redundant. Followers might be happy to listen to the builders are already engaged on a repair.

In addition to these Sigma and Doomfist updates, Rammatra and Kiriko are additionally going beneath the microscope, Aaron Keller confirmed in a May 11 tweet.

Rammatra suffered the identical blocking situation Doomfist players discovered yesterday, which flared up due to the mid-season patch.

Kiriko’s issues, nonetheless, have been lingering for months, with the builders solely now having a look at it. The assist character’s Swift Step capacity was utterly ineffective, with the glitch nullifying the transfer totally. Gamers would click on their Swift Step bind with the hopes of teleporting to a teammate however to no avail—they wouldn’t teleport wherever.

Sigma’s glitch saw the tank flying like Pharah after utilizing his final capacity. The subsequent stage of the glitch made all his talents turn out to be unusable, which means Sigma would solely be capable of casually fly across the map utilizing his main fireplace. The tank hasn’t been put again into aggressive simply but, so odds are they’re testing him out in additional causal Overwatch modes like Fast Play to see if anything flares up.

Blizzard additionally mounted an odd digital camera shake situation that they’re persevering with to research in case there’s additional points concerned with the glitch.

Now that almost all of those have been solved we are able to return to Simga’s flooding our Overwatch aggressive video games, and Kiriko’s teleporting to teammates with poor positioning.
