Overwatchplayers have been battling it out on its Ilios map since the game’s launch in 2016, fighting for control over the map’s lighthouse. Since players have to be inside the lighthouse to take control of the point, few bother to fly above it or pay attention to the top part of the structure. Because of this, manyOverwatchplayers are just now discovering a flaw with the lighthouse that they can never unsee.
As pointed out by Reddit user VanarchistCookbook, theOverwatchIlios map lighthouse has a flaw in that the top part of it is off-center. This was demonstrated in a video clip whereOverwatchDamage hero Echoflies to the top of the lighthouse and walks around, confirming that it is indeed off-center. It’s unclear why Blizzard designed it like this and it’s unlikely to get changed, but this discovery has elicited some interesting reactions from the community.
