Depends on what that third-party content provider is up to at the time. Whether they are limiting speeds/connections, time of day, how saturated their network is. They probably provide updates for some other companies, since that’s their sole purpose.

That’s not true. I was able to update immediately upon patch release.

1. AAA companies upload their patches to a third-party, which can share with users.
2. Users connect to the third-party and download update.
3. The third-party in this case is limiting download speeds and number of connections.

You can argue back and forth about it being Blizzard, but I can promise that won’t fix this for you.

• It is intended that Mei’s Cryo-Freeze makes her untargetable by friendly abilities. This was implemented on May 19 with the note, “Now behaves like Mei’s Ice Wall when it comes to interactions. Cryo-Freeze will block line of sight and collision in much the same way.” Previously, Mei’s Cryo-Freeze would block damage and break line of sight from enemies, but it is now intended to be more consistent and behave the same way for allies as well (i.e. Cryo-Freeze also blocks friendly abilities, projectiles, bullets, etc)
• We will take a look to see about the change in number of ticks. There was not an intended change to Mei’s freeze rate
• We will take a look at Mei not stopping Reinhardt’s Charge / Wrecking Ball. Mei’s Cryo-Freeze is intended to serve as an immovable object (on...

Today’s experimental card features a few balance changes we’d like to try out (and if successful, add to the live game). Check out the Experimental Mode patch notes here.

We’ve been hearing feedback about Brigitte that she feels too powerful overall. We’d like to try some changes intended to bring Brigitte’s balance more in-line with other supports. This test will be focused on a key change to her Repair Pack that no longer grants additional a...

Hey there, we’re aware of the bug on the replay viewer, sorry for this issue. We’re working on an updated build for the upcoming games, unfortunately we’re unable to make the fix for games that were already played.
