People will see a hitscan going 50-3 and just not do anything about it. I just can’t understand it. If any flex dps is doing well at least 3 people always swap to deal with that one hero and chase them down to the depths of hell whether it’s on my team or the enemy team. But whenever a hitscan is literally eating our assholes NO ONE DOES ANYTHING ABOUT THEM.

Tank and dps don’t swap to dive them and supports still just keep peaking like they don’t exist. We’ve already tried out poking them and it’s not working, why not try to contest their angles and dive them? It’s especially difficult when they are sitting next to their supports(which they always are). I’m not even mad about hitscans I’m mad that people just ignore them and I end up being the only one contesting them because they poke us out before we can even play the game. I’m only high diamond so if any high elo flex dps players have any recommendations on how you counteract this any help is appreciated.

It happens to all of us at one time or another. I suppose, from some perspectives, one could even consider it a rite of passage. Play for long enough, well enough, even in the lower ranks (especially?), you’ll eventually encounter a cheater.

Usually, it’s petty tricks and childish exploits. But, this? It was a whole battery of various forms of attack. The one the sticks out in my head the most (for reasons that you’ll soon understand are obvious) is that they somehow figured out a way to force the chat dialogue box open so that you’re disengaged from the fight.

In case you’re curious, the reply code is: TS2WSA.

You’ll notice not only the various symptoms of obvious hacks (my audio gets all messed up, and you’ll see messed up stuff happening with my interface), but also my response to being hacked.

I took it as a challenge. Suddenly, what was initially a series of exploitations meant to ruin the game for me while fabricating statistics for us both became an extremely fun challenge that rivals any game mode. I even upped the stakes to help us all stay interested: I pointed out how pathetic they were to have to still struggle against me despite hacking the match like crazy. The teams I had left fully embraced this spirit and we went down fighting. It was fun and exhilarating, and every single death they endured was mortifying for them, and we all knew.

Would that change my perspective and lead to me inviting it into my otherwise banal gaming sessions? Might I address this with a more open mind, realizing that this could actually serve as an exciting measure of my mettle?

No. They’re pathetic, lame losers and antithetical to the spirit of being a gamer.

But, if you’re already going to be there harassing poor, unsuspecting low metal ranks, come and get me, you little losers. You may still win, but you’re gonna have to earn it from me.

i've been dealing with this for a year and tried everything but i think i found the solution now.
it's pretty weird but linking my battle.net to a different playstation account seemed to resolve everything dealing with the fps drops and i figured it would since i have multiple overwatch accounts on playstation and they never had those drops in fps except for my main account. so if you're having this issue then give that a try.

So recently, I was playing with some friends, and we encountered a couple in QP. They were cool, so we decided to play with them (we only played QP, never ranked). The boyfriend was weirdly strong, but nothing that made me think he was cheating
Yesterday, I was solo queueing, and suddenly, after my game, I got a 24-hour suspension with the offense listed as “Gameplay / Behavioral Offense.” I made the link and realized that he was probably cheating.
Later, I confirmed it because my friend and his girlfriend got suspended for 24 hours too.
I couldn’t do anything but wait, and now that I’m playing again, I can’t type in chat or use voice chat and my endorsement level has gone from 5 to 0. However, my friends aren’t experiencing any of these issues, and they can still type and talk.
I can assure you that I’ve never cheated or said anything offensive in chat.
So, I’m wondering why this happened only to me and not to my friends, and if OW support can do anything about it.
