Tracer used to Recall across the entire map

In 2015, Tracer could teleport from one end of the map to the other with a little help from a friend.

Fun fact: this used to work for Reaper and Sym too. Teleporting a Bastion into Hanamura point A was always hilarious and constantly resulted in.... nothing really since the enemy Ana always sleeps him with his tank sized hitbox but still it's the journey not the destination

Imagine tracer IRL going on a road trip or something and she just recalls home by accident

[cromanticheer]

While it's absolutely a developer's nightmare, I love all the weird shit that happens from simply having stuff like a teleporting character and an object-summoning character in the same game.

I wanted to document one of my favorite old bugs before moving on to modern bugs with OW2...and trust me, there are a lot of them to cover.

honestly i think having the tracer recall into what could be a precarious position makes more sense with her lore, and would incentivize tracers to be more careful.
it would also be funny if in lore tracer just does not trust any kind of vehicle in fear of recalling behind it(like the jets she used to fly)

2 fun facts
1. If the play of the game is not noteworthy to show a player character then it will automatically default to 0, 0, 0
2. This was also possible with Reaper's teleport though it was in a different way

The quality of your content is insane. Keep it up!

[rajkanishu]

The Blinx music is what makes this truly special <3

Genuinely inspired, high quality, and educational overwatch content is so refreshing and is highly appreciated!

[halloeverybodhi]

So basically because the floor doesn't exist anymore tracer teleports to the big bang location?

[BringBackLFG]

I'm SO happy you are making content about overwatch and its history! The demonstrations you used to show what could have been possible were amazing!

[nemotzu]

I remember clearly back when this still existed in the game, and I never found out the reason as to why this would occur. Thanks for clearing it up for me, Marblr. I've finally found out now after a little over 6 years.

3:23 If I had a nickel for every time tracer's recall bugged with Mei's wall to let me get out of spawn, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot... but it's weird that it happened twice

[reddieredtoons]

I really hope I see this channel blow up when OW2 comes out, the quality is out of this world

i had a Mercy bug on Volskaya recently that propelled me to the World Origin :D
i was trying to superjump to Echo that was running out of ult and i managed to time it just right for (i think) Mercy's fly-to coordinates to return as 0, 0, 0 (probably because the Echo ult copy is sent to these coordinates and then deleted)
great video as always!

You have a perfect voice for this kind of informative content! Love what you are doing, I learn so much although I’ve played for 4 years.

This is such an obscure interesting fun fact and a very well presented one at that! Thank you for sharing!

[Justus-evmd]

I would love to see an explanation of the mei wall spawn door bug that tilts the players view, one of the most imfamous overwatch bugs

[loganji]

Interesting how blizzard decided to make the world origin of some maps so far away from the actual map

[raptoricooo]

These are very well made vids! Pleasantly surprised and looking forward to seeing more!
