So i here’s the thing…
I left from ending match that was about to hit the score screen and after i reached the main menu i put myself immediately into competitive match queue before the main menu was properly loaded in with background textures/models.
To my surprise it seemed like it had found a match straight away because the top most option of the main menu displayed the option “Rejoin match” but then i realized something was wrong because the competitive match queue was still displaying the searching game and time in queue box.
I tried clicking the rejoin match which did nothing and after that the leave queue button which didn’t do anything either. Soon after the competitive match actually started for real and the game started to load the map BUT the main menu was still on screen on top of the loading screen and finally when i reached the hero select screen the main menu texts were still being displayed. Once the heroes spawned in the map the main menu shenanigans prevented me from controlling my hero and i didn’t have the option to leave game using the esc button BUT i was able to interact with the main menu options, that includes the possibility of browsing the hero gallery with skins and stuff. The only option left to me was to use task manager to kill Overwatch which meant that the match got cancelled.
PS. I know you can’t restore the lost SR but i thought this was bad enough bug that you guys should know about this incident.
