Hey there, Bahrain is indeed a new location that's being introduced with the 1.47 update that was released today.

Germany is a location that has been available for a long time but is only used during abnormally high demand times like this patch. While we want the best network quality possible for players in all locations, more sites affect matchmaking quality, so we're always evaluating that trade-off.

Cheers

Will this be on the latest patch with the fly-jump nerf? Really want to see how Echo looks without the abusable hyper-mobility.

Hey there, they'll be playing on the most recent build that went to PTR late on Friday night.

Cheers!

This is definitely a late patch. It seems to have been posted at 8:27pm.

Sometimes you gotta shake it up.

Hope you have a great weekend.

Hey there, I did just update the PTR. We moved a bit faster with this one (kicked people offline) given it's a bit late in the night where we are, sorry for that disruption.

Patch notes are here, hope you have a great weekend.

I just hope that the Overwatch team aren't putting themselves or their families at risk for this.

The Overwatch team is fortunate to be able to work from home. Thanks for thinking of us. <3

Hey there I haven’t seen an elevated rate of LC-202 for any platform or region. Apologies that you’re having issues, please post any additional details here if you continue to experience issues.

edit: My initial investigation shows some elevated errors rates for ISP "Telstra Internet". We'll do our best to get in touch with their operations center, but if you are a Telstra customer and can reach out to your support that may be worthwhile as well.

As a side note, I understand this is a hassle, As an engineer on a game that requires the internet, regardless of where the problem is I want to help resolve the issue.

Thanks for taking the time to make this post and bring the issue to our attention.

Hey there sorry for this, I’m looking into what’s happening.

I believe I may have discovered a bug /u/billwarnecke — I played a couple of Experimental Play matches to completion and there were no Replays saved from those games on my Career Profile.

Hey there, we're aware with an issue that's preventing replays from showing up. We're working on a fix, once it's complete they will appear.

Cheers

edit: this is fixed now, thanks again for the report

Hey there, the issue last night was a database cluster failure and we're confident that issue is resolved. If you're having connection stability issues today we'd need to look at what specifically is happening for you, it won't be the same issue as last night.

I understand the important thing is you're being disconnected and it's impacting your competitive rating, just wanted to add clarity for others who come by the thread.

If you can take some time to post on our tech forums we have folks there who can help troubleshoot. I'm not at the office at the moment, but I haven't received any alerts that indicate widespread failure this morning.

Cheers, and ...

Audio is broken still. If not worse than before. Same issue.

1.45 release for the audio fix. Sorry for the delay.

thanks for bringing this to our attention. we looked into this and apparently this was auto-actioned. we've worked to correct this and it should be fixed now. we're fans of itsjieyang's content (especially the patch break downs!) and we're sorry this happened!
