I am having massive problems when trying to find a game after the last update because when i im about to join a match or anything that allows me to play the game a small aband apears saying “applaying update” and then disapers and nothing happens. untill i get forces of the game with a “unknown error (-5)”.
I have tryed to verfiy the games files but that has had no improvments and the problem fixes from the more infomation button has not worked aswell.
I have some screenshots of the error message and applaying update screen but dont know how to attach them.
Hey there Firefoxflame,
I’m sorry to hear that you’re having this error when trying to join a match of Overwatch. We’re currently investigating this error, with a consolidated thread on our US Forums.
Currently, can I first ask you to check your Computers Date and Time settings, and ensure that they are set correctly. Once you have done this, please open your Battle.net Application and click on Settings underneath the Overwatch Logo and select “Scan and Repair”, let this complete, and once done, select “Check for Updates” in the same menu.
Another thing to try that seems to have worked for some players is to change the Overwatch Region/Account option above the “Play” button, please try selecting a different region (Americas, or Asia for example) and then run the game, start a Quick Match and see if you get the same error, or if the update can be applied.
Sorry again for the trouble that this causes you, but as I mentioned, we are investigating this and hope to find the cause, and resolution soon.
