As Overwatch players around the world take on Mercy’s Recall Challenge, there’s no time like the present to look back at Dr. Ziegler’s past and explore how this iconic hero became who she is today.

Heroic Inspiration

Years ago, when we were exploring ideas for what would eventually become Overwatch, one of the areas the development team had been focusing on was the concept of a class-based online shooter—an idea that stemmed from an unannounced game that had shuttered, codenamed Titan.

"We had a class meeting, where [lead hero designer of Overwatch] Geoff Goodman said something tha...

Hey there if you DM me your Nintendo Network ID I can have our live ops folks look into this. If Overwatch has never worked for you this may be due to compatibility issues with your wireless router. If it has worked for you previously it may be some network issues between you and our servers.

I wanted to make everyone aware of a change that we are making to our PTR Bug Report Forum and provide some additional transparency as to why we are moving in this new direction.

Starting today, each time we release a major update to the PTR we will be locking all old PTR Bug Report threads. The reason for this is to ensure that each new issue for the current PTR can be tracked appropriately. Recently we encountered an issue where an older thread from a previous PTR revision was resurrected due to similarities in the symptoms associated with the issue. We had closed the older issue on our side through our bug tracking software and additional comments were being associated with the wrong patch content. Had the new issue received its own dedicated thread, we would have been able to better identify and separate root cause much more effectively.

This change will not affect our normal Bug Report Forums, as any issue that makes it out to the live environment is tracked separ...

Really great feedback, I'll talk about this with people on Monday.

Performance on all platforms is super important to us. We’ve fixed a few common client crashes, and did a lot of work on performance in the patches. We will keep this effort up, and appreciate all feedback! It really helps us know where to focus.

Cheers!!!
