The ENTIRE History of Overwatch Glitches: 2016 - 2023

[@bonic7217]

I think you should have mentioned the mystery heroes emote glitch. When that was around you could give the character you spawned us emotes of other characters creating horrors beyond human imagination

[@plagueman049]

I literally did not know about this and now I need to look this up

It's obvious that the physics bugs that were happening were all because of Sigma.

SIGMA BAL-

[@sleepy_kurro9626]

Not sure if you forgot or not, but there was an out of bounds glitch on shambali monastery with sombra. You could just be under the entire map and shoot people from below

[@treysentalbert5258]

Oh and on top of temple of Anubis, haven't watched yet

[@gegitherein6039]

There was also a bug with Torb where you can get 2 overloads with one and it was extremely easy to do, just spam E and you get 2 free overloads, this was the same time as Bastions ult bug.

[@getromire]

5:42 This isnt actually the spawn doors unable to open, McCree here somehow spawned at the wrong control point and that's why the spawn doors arent opening, also notice how he cant change heroes.

[@badhydra78]

Who

[@Luna29191]

@@badhydra78you must be a new player, Mcree was Cassidy before his name changed. Because it was a name of one of the staff, and the staff was a women abuser

[@greg3118]

I remember often getting one on Watchpoint: Gibraltar as Reaper where I could teleport into a crate on the second point. I could shoot the enemy when they were by me but they couldn't shoot me. If I did that, my team would have to 5 v 6 the entire third point because I couldn't get out of the crate.

[@liamellis5250]

A lot more of these bugs are entirely visual than you may first realise, most of the spawn door bugs (they've cropped up multiple times) were visual and would only look like they prevented you from moving through when in reality if you held forward for more than a couple seconds you would seemingly teleport from one side of the door to the other.

[@vicsterb25]

The fact that you didn't mention mei walls when going out of spawn literally flipping you and allowing you to fly is crazy tho

[@moai3937]

5:57 this isn’t a bug🗿 the junk just placed a new trap

[@graf_renner6153]

you forgot the meiwall out of spawn bug ( where your character got tilted to the side after it broke )

[@DiscoFlye]

The bug I personally experienced the most is back in ow1, Dva ulting will teleport you to the sky outside of the map and then you just fall and die

[@ShirmaAkayaku]

My favorite bug has to be the infinite bot glitch. You could have around 24 to 32 Bastion bots on the enemy team and see debris everywhere. You could also do 12v12 with it too. I miss the bug so much, they promised to make it into a feature on the forums, but never implemented it. The closest thing we have now is 18 dummy bots in the workshop.

[@grumpystrawberry]

Take a shot every time he says, “game breaking”

[@immune855]

the one about junk trap instantly being destroyed - that is when junk places a new trap whilst someone steps into it. the one where spawn doors wouldnt open on oasis, he literally spawned on the wrong map. if you didnt know, on control maps, ALL of the maps are rendered into one big map.

[@prysm2599]

Let's remember that at first the Mercy super jump was considered a bug

[@raven6139]

They patched a pet dragon. Now it only works for you

[@Fosilkat]

You forgot the symetra turrets, and the numerous interactions between either mei's wall or symmetra's teleporter that could allow to make indestructible objects or throw anyone out of the map

[@ParadoxAAA]

I'm relatively new to OW so I didn't even catch that the first "bug" was a bug until you said it because of how natural it looks. Wish Blizzard would have kept it or properly implemented it as an official mechanic.

[@kubaxterg9994]

5:50 no you got it wrong, he is in the wrong spown, thats the problem

[@ohtue9911]

I had a funny bug back when orisa came out, when you used the puppy emote the puppy was static but facing the other way, so when the puppy was suposed to be licking her face it looked like she was rubbing the puppies butt on her face instead and laughing 🤣

[@magicalsleeper]

Yes I remember that one! 😂 definitely game breaking. That poor puppy😢

[@TheHellsingHQ]

*sigh* 2016-2018 I miss those Golden Years of OW. The best and the most fun OW will ever have.

[@nancewest1120]

I remember back in overwatch one getting banned in comp for 9 months because I used the mei ice wall glitch in the snowball game mode on the Antarctic map that let me get behind one of the blocked off rooms.

[@therebelfrogy9287]

Thank you Dittoz for reminding me the good days of Overwatch. Your video bring back my Overwatch memories, even if it's good or bad, and remind me why I love the game so much

[@ryzacraft]

The gameplay at 5:45 wasn’t just a case of the spawn doors not opening. It would sometimes spawn a player at the wrong control map. For example, the Cassidy spawned at the garden while everyone else was on city Center or university.

[@mateotorres0730]

This video has been brought to you by truthorange and the US Army.

[@Youlge]

my favorite bug was being able to fling yourself across the map as brig if you shield bashed and whip shotted at the same time

[@GoatPersonThing]

there is actually still a payload bug, sometimes when youre on it, it doesnt register that you are, and the game ends

[@rubenanderies4880]

I remember playing in the game browser and just seeing people outside the map and they teach you how to get there.

[@CrowMaiden]

there's a couple from OW 1 that i didn't hear mentions of, so here goes; - there were entire sections of maps you could glitch into as Mei using her wall and spawns on Oasis that you could glitch out of and into the skybox. they were most common on the PTR, but they happened on the actual game, too, to the point that the devs had to beg people not to use them in games. they were most popular to mess with when Junkertown was being released. - 0.00 bug. also around the same time, it was incredibly common for the payload to be such a miniscule amount from the end that it showed the distance remaining as 0. very fun when you lost a game while 0.00m from the end. i haven't seen it in OW 2, but just because i've said that, i can guarantee i'm gonna see it. - Rein. just Rein. they 'fixed' him in 2018 (i think), but that lasted for about a day. explanation; charge and his ult weren't working as they should have been. charge has always had a 50/50 chance of sucking you in or throwing you out to the point of even the rein being surprised when they go for a charge and suck an enemy into his grip. Rein's ult has always been buggy, and the worst of it was mentioned but the incredibly common--as in, still happens--version of it either hitting people it shouldn't hit or not hitting people on the edges of it despite the fact that it definitely should've hit them wasn't mentioned. i'm just glad i don't play Rein. - the payload's detection for whether anyone's on it or not has always been funky. my favourite is when you're kissing the payload, face pressed against it, and lose because apparently you weren't on it. incredible. ditto with control point. the amount of times i've seen an enemy on the point and the game goes 'nah, they're not on it' is often enough that i remember seeing it. - Roadhog's hook was mentioned, but i want to note that it still happens. not as badly, but i've been hooked through my teammates in a way where there's no way i should've been hooked, and i've been the Roadhog who hooked someone through their teammates. the surprise when i went to hook a D.Va who was in her mecha and got a Mercy that i didn't even know was there and we both stared at each other for a moment. hilarious. honourable mentions for OW 2: - AI in vs. AI games can get under the map on Shambali and shoot through the floor. it seems to be only the AI who can do it, at least, but the example i've seen was a Bastion. - the weird amount that the game just doesn't detect you using shift on Kiriko and Moira. works on Mercy, Winston, D.Va, Rein, Lucio, Junkrat, Lifeweaver... basically anyone else with a movement ability on shift, but not those two. also had a friend in another country have the same issue. - just after the game was released (like, first month), i witnessed my friend teleport to someone as Kiriko and fall through the floor. it was King's Row. she teleported to someone who was on high ground next to the pipes after payload capture (i cannot figure out how to explain where), appeared there, and was evidently close enough to the wall to just not hit the floor's collision at all. - on Antarctic Peninsular, the pipes on one of the maps (what is it with this game and the pipes?) work in the same way the front of the ship used to on Lijiang, Nepal, and Ilios. there is still a specific point in one of the AP spawn rooms but not the other where it doesn't count as being inside the spawn and so teleports you back to the middle of spawn. this only works when the doors are closed, because that's when you shouldn't be outside spawn. it was a larger catch area for it, but when they fixed the ships (after 6 years), the catch area for the pipes shrunk. favourite one. i love sprinting to the pipes and then appearing in the middle of the spawn room like the world's best magician.

[@souza9369]

I miss Genji super boost so much, it gave so much vertical movement and was useful for strats

[@JETTZ340]

On Nintendo switch it’s common in some arcade games the entire map will be bright and neon and you can’t see at all except for the enemy’s outline

[@Riy4dhr]

The dragon visual bug is the best

[@Sma1lON]

And it still works

[@divinegopher]

Encountered a bug yesterday where the spawn doors for the capture point maps would not open for my team, after losing the first point the enemy team all ran up to us after not seeing us and they also saw that our door was closed and would fall off the map if they tried to walk where the door normally opens

[@RoseGoldKR]

I don’t want to ruin the fun but a lot of this video is wrong so I thought I’d explain it in more depth: 0:35 the hog hooks were insanely busted, but they were not technically bugs since that’s how blizzard intended to implement hook. They were for sure badly thought out and were correctly changed to reduce hitbox and need LOS but not bugs. 2:40 this isn’t a roadhog bug, character models quite often get stuck in places they aren’t meant to be and still happens to this day. 4:40 sombra was much more used for these types of bugs since you could get translocator into many more broken areas of the map than reaper tp 5:47 the bug here isn’t that the doors closed, you can see the rest of his team are on another map inside oasis but he is stuck in one of their previous maps, that’s the bug. 6:10 I don’t think this is the arrow bugging out, I think it’s the hitbox of the arrow hitting the hitbox of the wall she is standing beside so it got stuck as if it was just hanging there. Poor choices of mechanics from blizzard but not a bug, just a bad decision again. 6:19 there are many spots even in ow2 that still contain stall spots like this but it’s not that game breaking since he can just use mines to get out or now we have the automatic jumping mechanic that detects when you’re stuck and will boost you out. 6:32 doom here didn’t fall through spawn, he literally just walked out of the spawn and jumped off the map due to his mouse sensor messing up. This is not a bug and it is also not blizzards fault, the guy just walked off. 7:34 this is a bug but it’s not that “Mei frozen = can’t kill”, it’s that the bastion was frozen while he was in the middle of animation so his character model showed that he was still mid animation but his hitbox went back as if it had finished. 8:48 drawing on payload maps is very rare but it’s not a bug. There are certain places in specific maps where the payload automatically pushes itself to an area like here on dorado or 2nd point eichenwalde. 10:27 this is also not a bug you can see on the left side of his screen he has the lost connection icon, but the genji dashed during his connection lost so he continued with that trajectory since there were no packets from the server to update the player that the dash had ended. It’s a purely client visual issue and not a bug.

[@BabyMayCry]

Genji's Ultimate dragon animation where it stays on him is back btw.

[@pierspinelli8352]

You forgot a very known one! In the Antartica base map, you could have entered into celeing with mei wall (In the spawn corridors part) and shoot enemies from there

[@bakurasensei]

Roadhog hooking people through walls should be considered a war crime

[@shadowbrawl142]

Remember the Infinite Bot glitch in ow1? Now THAT was a fun time. Imagine pressing Q with mccree on a big horde of 30+bots and killing them all at once

[@theduckster1236]

10:55 the amount of times I've deflected and still got shot or hooked and we I get out of the hook my deflect is gone is crazy

[@myujaa823]

I think my favorite bug of all time was the one where you could get inside the walls with Sombra's translocator in the vault door in the first defender spawn on Dorado

[@Nova_novie]

Idk has anyone else noticed this but in mystery heroes when u have the capture the point and its about to be second round u press tab and u can just see what characters the enemy team has

[@number0017]

Suprise he never brought up that one bug that would automatically kick you out, put you back in the game and kick you out again that took Blizzard 1 full year to fix.

[@nacl2315]

i’m pretty sure he just fell at 6:29

[@sirius1320]

The Background from the hero select screen shows a part of the map in realtime without players etc, but with the Sym wall...

[@pwla]

There is a bug in Shambali monastery where Sombra could get under the map and and moves easily and can shoot others but others can't and if there is a kiriko she can tp to her

[@samuelbromberg7293]

the clip at 5:59 with the junkrat trap wasn't a glitch. If you look carefully at the clip the junkrat put out a new trap causing the old one to dissapear.

[@ominusxl304]

I had a bad game breaking glitch where my screen was blurry in game, it happened a few times and I checked scary thing with the tv and cable

[@GamingChair420]

Bring back infinite bastion ult please it wasn't that good

[@shampooburns]

YO WHAT THE HELL i was watching this video and i thought i recognized the clip at 3:29 and i realized its MINE i look at the chat and its "Shampooburns: Hello!" and im freaking out like woahhhhh. i sent this clip to gaming curios overwatch montages YEARS AGO its crazy to see this again...

[@Kqntin]

the payload draw still happens, sometimes the games rndmly ends (even with some people on the payload

I remember there was one game that just said Unspecified and one team, it was a push map

[@JustaLamborghiniCountachWhoCom]

5:46 Yeah the spawn doors won't unlock, nothing else seems odd here

[@NERO-hz7lc]

90% of the bug I didn't know where there....than I realized most of them was on consoles....unlucky

[@lutte9194]

I played a match once and I was playing junker queen and when 2nd round started I spawned underground and nobody could kill me even after I asked them to and I stayed like that the entire match it was so unfair

[@eslot_]

I'm surprised I didn't see the emote swap glitch in here

[@tooncobbaut2770]

i mean the junk trap just means he placed it at the same time it triggered you so the old one that triggered dissapears

[@lennx978]

Sometimes I get kicked out and then get in without doing anything and then the upper half my HUD is not there😂 and players dont have there team color...

[@nimgol03]

Bro how did you not speak about the mei glitch were you could be tilted 45° ??? It was the most fun glitch to use in ranked

[@ksosb]

It's funny on how half these glitches are still in the game lol

[@Valors11]

You should’ve put the glitch where if doomfist emoted by the junkertown wall he’d climb it😂

The Widowmaker bug was not game breaking, she was just playing a 3rd person shooter.

[@Zoomer4U521]

5:11 the glitch isn’t even the most confusing thing here. What I’m more confused about is what the hell was the team doing? I just noticed they’re bots. They could’ve just been bronze 5 players but I see they’re bots now

That reaper elevator bug reminds me of the Simpsons episode where Homer sells his soul to the devil resulting in automatic doors no longer opening for him. Lol. Btw, you missed a pretty huge game breaking (as well as ocular health damaging) graphic bug on the Nintendo switch where some maps had their textures all replaced by pure neon colors BRIGHTER THAN THE FRICKIN SUN, making seeing anything almost impossible. Happened to me once in ranked. I thought if I cut my internet connection real quick, then close he an then come back that it might fix it. Nope. Got banned the rest of season 1. Weeee

The Widow bug is just a spectator bug so you cant see it

[@LampDoesVideogame]

>Going into the 2020s Oof. 2018, Brig's armor mitigated more damage than it was supposed to FROM THE DAY SHE CAME OUT UNTIL WORKSHOP WAS RELEASED. It was only found out because of players. At a point, Mei's wall literally tilted teammate's screens. Sym tele STILL teleports people off the map if they interact with it as it dies. That's been in the game since she got her original teleporter.

[@diablotry5154]

No. It teleports them to the map origin, which is sometimes off the map and sometimes in. Its very rare and not easily fixable because it occurs when the teleporter entity no longer exists while someone is being teleported, and so their position is set to default (0,0,0)
