Overwatch: Torbjörn Exploit Not Yet Patched, Blizzard Looking Into A Fix

Blizzard apologizes for the bug.

Posted By | On 21st, May. 2017

The Torbjörn turret glitch has been a troubling thing for a number of Overwatch players for some time now. It’s basically a bug that allows players to place Torbjorn guns and turrets inside of walls- you don’t need us to tell you why that can be disadvantageous for a lot of players. Apparently, a lot of players have ben exploiting this glitch and making use of it to their benefit in the game, and this still hasn’t been patched by Blizzard, as was reported by a Reddit user recently.

However, Blizzard are aware of this glitch and are working to make sure this is addressed as soon as possible. On the Reddit page linked above, Blizzard’s lead software engineer Bill Warnecke posted a reply to assure people that Blizzard was working on a patch for this glitch. “I’m not certain what the status of this issue is but I’ve sent this over to QA to make sure it’s fixed as soon as possible,” Warnecke said.

“We take exploits like this seriously. Please do not abuse this bug. If you’re in a match with someone who does abuse this please report them. Apologies to anyone who had been in a game and affected by this,” he finished. Have you come across this bug recently? Tell us in your comments below.
