The final remark of the Overwatch patch notes of the 24th of July comes along with a wide list of bug fixes on aspects of the game that were deemed problematic. Though considering that such a list focuses on minor, unimportant fixes of rare issues as well, the most notable of bug fixes are best to be featured.
On a general remark, there were some general updates on display and activity which involved:
- Added a note to Sombra’s Hero Information page about her ability to remove her own Translocator
- Removed the Shield Generators Destroyed statistic from players’ Career Profiles
- Added a button that allows you to queue into the selected game mode once the group becomes full

To the more troubleshooting part:
- Fixed a bug that caused the group leader’s UI to appear that they’re canceling or leaving Waiting for Players when using a controller
- Fixed a bug that prevented players from receiving an AFK warning for not moving after receiving the No XP warning for not being in combat
For custom games:
- Fixed a bug that prevented groups electing to spectate from being placed into the Spectator section of the Custom Game they’re trying to watch
Regarding Endorsements:
- Fixed a bug that caused the Team Information screen to display an Endorsement level of a player who left the game
- Fixed a bug that prevented the Endorsement input from opening the Endorsement tray if it shared that input with another input
Lastly, for when looking for a group:
- Fixed a bug that caused all game modes to be selectable when adding a player to a group
- Fixed a bug that prevented the Choose Roles menu from offering a default role when accessed
- Fixed a bug that prevented role icons from displaying on hero portraits
