Overwatch 2 - Players get blurry/stuttering when high latency

Technical Support

Hi!

As the title says, I have now noticed a strange “bug” with the game. I live in Japan and sometimes plays with my friends in Sweden, which of course places on our servers that are either close to them or close to me.

However, when this happens, the person that gets high latency (around 250ms) will see that other players “stutters” around, their model rubberbanding back and forth making it incredibly hard to play. This happens only for player characters, the rest of the game looks fine. Also, this is the first game ever that I have played that has this kind of behaviour.

I assume this is related to high latency as this only happens whenever someone has high latency. If the latency is low, this doesn’t happen at all.

Is this a known issue?

Thanks!
