No longer receiving ammo/orb/consumable/patrol drops or event notification text

Summary: No longer receiving ammo/orb/consumable/patrol drops or event notification text (e.g. - "<PSNID1> killed <PSNID2>" in Crucible) Platform: PS4 Description: Since House of Wolves was released*, I have frequently run into a bug which causes the following issues to occur simultaneously: - Enemies killed by myself, Fireteam members, or Guardians in the same area no longer drop ammo of any kind - Once I run out of all ammo, I no longer receive the "free" ammo refresh that gives you back some of your primary and secondary ammo and am forced to use a synth (which does still work properly) - I no longer generate Orbs of Lights when killing enemies with my Super, regardless of the number of enemies killed. I am however still able to see and collect Orbs generated by teammates. - Killing enemies (myself or by others) on Patrol missions that require item collection does not drop the items for me. If I have Fireteam members with me they see and can collect the items without issue, otherwise I am unable to complete these missions myself. - Glimmer consumables also do not drop. This is most noticeable when defeating a strike final boss such as Sepiks Prime that otherwise always drops at least 1 glimmer consumable. - Abilities do not appear to be affected by gear and may even be recharging slower than normal without factoring in gear . This was most noticeable in a Crucible Control match in which I had 100% Intellect and scored 2500 pts before the first person on either team scored 1000 pts. The other team then started getting their Supers when my meter was still ~50%, and I ended up with only 1 Super before the game ended. /end douchey humblebrag - Almost all notifications are no longer displayed for me. In PvE, this includes notifications such as "<Teammate1> died" or "<Teammate1> revived by <Teammate2>". I do however see the notification when Fireteam members generate Orbs of Light. In PvP, this causes all notifications to no longer appear other than the notification shown when I'm killed, (which causes increased sadness). This issue seemingly occurs at random. I know that's not possible but I say that because I haven't locked down solid repro steps yet. For example, I originally thought it may be due to being around too many other players. I thought this because when running the new Queen's Wrath bounties with friends, I'd have at least 1 other Fireteam member plus a few other randos in a public space. I would observe the issue during a Wanted 250 rep bounty and then run off on my own for the 100 rep Wanted bounty on the same planet. Once I was several areas away and fighting the targets for the 100 rep bounty, the issue was no longer occurring. However, I have also seen the issue occur when I'm on my own running a Nightfall. Once a friend joins my Fireteam mid-Strike the issue no longer occurs. This issue is most often resolved once I reach the first checkpoint of a strike or story mission, however this does not resolve the issue 100% of the time. I have also seen that once it is resolved via a checkpoint, the issue can still occur after a later checkpoint. I have even seen the issue occur for one room in Prison of Elders, then not occur for the next room, and begin occurring again in the room after that. The issue will sometimes be resolved after a squad wipe/restart of a round in PoE, but will then occur again after another restart or advancing to a new Round. When this issue occurs, I have not experienced any issues with end of mission/Crucible game reward drops, level-up packages, or rewards from chests. I plan on uninstalling and reinstalling Destiny and the DLCs to see if this resolves the issue, and if not will reply with videos. *Full disclosure and at the risk of "voiding my warranty", shortly after HoW was released I also started using the [url=http://bit.ly/1BZwd00]Destiny Item Manager Chrome extension[/url]. While these issues could also be related to that, based on their subreddit, Bungie.net open bug threads, and the powers of Google, I have not seen any similar issues reported caused with or without their tool. Repro Steps: 1) Start a Fireteam with 1 or 2 other members (being Party Leader or not does not seem to matter) 2) Load into a public area on Patrol where other Guardians are present 3) Pick up an item collection Patrol mission and begin killing the required enemies 4) Have Fireteam members yell at you for not firing on enemies after you've run out of ammo and are no longer receiving ammo drops 5) Melee all the things
