Hi Overwatch and Esports Fans,

Thanks to all of you who downloaded, installed, tried out, posted awesome clips, and gave us feedback on the Overwatch World Cup Viewer over the last month.

As we announced when we released the beta, we only planned to provide the feature for about a month and that time has come. We currently plan to shut off the Overwatch World Cup Viewer at ~15:00 (3pm) PST today (Monday Dec 3) in case there are any final moments you wanted to capture. =)

After that, the INSTALL button in the Battle.net App will change to an UNINSTALL if you want to reclaim the disk space. Tom Powers will have a more official ...

They were originally designed for peacekeeping purposes, sort of like the original OR14s.

Hey there, sorry for this issue. One of our UI engineers is taking a look at this and we think we may have a solution to work around this. Unfortunately it may not make it in until the 1.32 patch.

Cheers.

Hey Everyone, we have a fix for this internally and hope to push it out with our next patch.

In the meantime, there is a workaround. Reset your user volume sliders back to 100 and turn the game down using the Windows volume mixer in the Windows sound options.

Thank you all for bringing the issue to our attention.

Hey folks, PTR build 53030 is now live which includes these changes. Cheers!

This post is to track further updates to the PTR as we make them. The following changes are planned for a PTR patch that will probably come on Monday.

Brigitte

• Shield Bash
  • Damage reduced from 50 to 5
• Inspire Passive
  • Cooldown reduced from 1.5s to 1.0s
  • Duration increased from 5s to 6s
  • Total healing increased from 80 to 100

Dev Notes: Reduces Shield Bash’s damage reduces her total stun combo damage potential while still allowing Whip Shot and her basic melee attacks to retain their full strength. Brigitte is a hybrid tank/healer, and lately we’ve been reducing her effectiveness by reducing the power of her non-healing functionality, but we want to make sure she is still a viable pick so we’re increasing the uptime of her Inspire passive to help increase her overall healing output.

Doomfist

• Seismic Slam
  • Victims no longer lose air c...

Disclaimer: This is not a complete list of all currently tracked issues affecting this build of Overwatch, rather this is a targeted list of some known specific issues with this release.

Patch 1.31

Heroes

Ashe

• When spectating Ashe her player outline draws around her gun and scope

Bastion

• While firing in siege mode, bastions bullet shells eject backwards

Brigitte

• Brig’s weapon re-appears late after waving
• Shield Bash does not do damage to barriers
• The smoke effects from Whip Shot flicker if you move while casting it

Hanzo

• While using the meditate emote Hanzo’s bow continuously rattles

This is something we are definitely looking into.

That would actually be up to the community managers. I technically CAN but I will leave it up to them to add or not.

The newest 1.31 PTR has Windows Spatial Audio re-enabled. Please keep the feedback coming on this feature. These reports have been extremely valuable for us.

Hey there! So there actually was a small change (though relatively minor) for Soldier: 76 that seems to have gotten left out of the notes. I’ll try to get those updated but people may have left for the day.

Soldier: 76

• Tactical Visor
  • No longer makes Helix Rockets auto-target enemies.

Developer Comments : The intent of Tactical Visor is to make Soldier: 76 unable to miss during its duration. However, Helix Rockets have travel time, so if they were fired directly at an enemy they would often miss a moving target at further ranges. This change allows players to freely aim Helix Rockets while still auto-aiming his primary fire.
