Blizzard admits bug made Overwatch 2’s best DPS hero overpowered
Everyone makes mistakes, but when those mistakes lead to Overwatch 2‘s most powerful (and arguably most annoying) damage-dealing heroes becoming even more overpowered, you’ve got to fess up to those mistakes and make things right.
Blizzard owned up to a pretty significant mistake today in the season five patch notes, uncovering a bug that “that was setting Tracer’s maximum weapon spread” to be “smaller than intended” on her Pulse Pistols. For those out of the loop on the semantics of weapon spread, a smaller spread means that the rounds fired spread out less when the weapon’s primary fire is held down, thus ensuring better accuracy when sprayed.
