A new Overwatch patch is currently in development and now available for testing. To share your feedback or report and issue, please post in the PTR Feedback or PTR Bug Report forums.
Please note that the below patch notes only include changes currently available for testing on the PTR. While many of these changes will also be available on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in a future patch, the PTR is PC-only and therefore will only reflect changes coming specifically to that platform.
General

The action is at an all-time high with our newest hero: Ashe. Take on the enemy team as a legendary outlaw armed with the Viper, a level-action rifle which can be shot from the hip or with aim down sights, increasing her firepower significantly. Light your enemies on fire with Dynamite and gain the upper hand in any situation using the Coach Gun, which can be used to propel yourself to coveted vantage points or blow away enemies. When the going gets tough, get tougher by calling in your omnic sidekick Bob. On the field, he’ll use his arm cannons to shred enemies while you pick off yellow-bellied opponents on the run.

Read moreCurrently, if you play Ashe on PC and have higher than 60 fps, the aim down site (ADS) animation can look choppy or "stepped". There is no lag going on. The ADS still happens at the correct speed. But the animation looks can feel a bit off.
In an upcoming patch, the ADS is smoothed out regardless of how high your fps is and should feel much better.
Unfortunately, right now, the patch that it is fixed in is 1.32 (1.31 is on the PTR right now). We're looking into pulling the fix forward but it's unlikely. It's a lot of code and needs a fair amount of testing so we don't want to rush it and risk breaking something else.
Apologies for the issue.
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
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.

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
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.
