We will monitor the situation as it develops, and if once Bungie releases an update, we’ll add it to the article. In addition to the server downtime, Bungie is also actively working on a patch. While there’s no word if we are getting one today, we’ve listed the Destiny 2 known issues . Note that this is not the complete list but a target list of issues for the game.
Destiny 2 Down Known Issues:
- Changing the platform setting “Others can communicate w/ voice, text, or invites” does not take effect until the game has been restarted.
- Players running Destiny with an integrated graphics card may encounter gameplay performance issues if the integrated graphics card does not meet the minimum required PC specs.
- Laptops with Intel 12th generation Iris integrated graphics may crash in high-demand environments. Players can mitigate these crashes by ensuring Windows 10 is set to use only discrete graphics when running Destiny 2 via Windows->Settings->Graphics Settings, and selecting “High Performance” for Destiny 2.
- Players using the PlayStation 4 version of Destiny 2 who receive BOAR errors should ensure that they have successfully downloaded the necessary Compatibility Files prior to entering the game.
- Season Passes will be applied to the first account that signs in. If you plan to Cross Save but will use another character set, it’s recommended to set up Cross Save before logging in. For more information, click here.
- To access Iron Banner, players must reach Guardian Rank 4, complete the Crucible introductory quest, then speak to Lord Saladin and complete the Iron Banner introductory quest.
- Epic Games Store players receiving “Time Skew Maxed” and RUTABEGA errors may need to update their launcher. If this doesn’t help, players may have to press the Escape Key repeatedly after selecting a character to skip the opening cinematic.
- Players progressing through The Final Shape campaign in a fireteam should avoid joining missions in-progress or swapping characters during the campaign to ensure progress is correctly recorded.
- Players may experience a crash when attempting to reshape a weapon that is no longer present in their inventory. This can be resolved by beginning a craft of a new weapon then backing out.
- The Micah-10 quest “The Veiled” cannot be completed unless players have completed the first mission of the Beyond Light campaign. This mission is available for all players to complete.
Once we get an update from Bungie, we’ll let our readers know.
