[i]From the Destiny 2 Development Team:[/i]
Over the weekend, as we monitored your progress in Destiny 2: Forsaken (and grinded ourselves), some new issues came to light that require immediate attention. In some instances, fixes to the game will require code changes, but there are some immediate server-side actions we can take to safeguard the player experience. Our bar for rapid responses like these is to address issues that impact the economy that makes Destiny 2 a game that is engaging over a longer timeline. As we take action, we will not be issuing any bans or restrictions to players who may have benefitted from the following…
[b][u]Status Updates:[/u][/b]
[quote][b][u]Raid Chests:[/u][/b] Players have found their way into Raid spaces and claimed gear from bonus chests. Those chests are being suppressed until we can properly isolate them to Raid activities. None of the rewards they have granted will be rescinded. [/quote]
[quote][b][u]Prime Engrams:[/u][/b] An exploit was discovered this weekend where players could earn Prime Engrams at a rapid pace using the Prime Attunement buff. At this time, Prime Engrams are designed to grant small power gains over time. Acquiring large amounts of Prime Engrams in a short timeframe reduces the frequency in which you earn Prime Engrams as you continue to play the game. Some players who have used this exploit heavily may find that Prime Engrams will not appear for the next two to three weeks.
As such, this will provide a very small short-term gain for those using this exploit, but have negative long-term effects for a player’s power progression. We are investigating a fix for this exploit. In the meantime, [b]we highly recommend that players do not use this exploit.[/b]
Players who are earning Prime Engrams while playing through the game naturally will not be impacted by this issue in any form.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Weekly Challenge Reset:[/u][/b] Weekly Gambit, Crucible, and Heroic Story Challenges were impacted over the weekend by an unforeseen Milestone reset. Players who completed Challenges after the faulty reset on Saturday were not given powerful rewards, and will not receive a proper challenge reset on Tuesday for these activities. We are investigating the cause of this issue, and will deploy a fix at our first opportunity. Additional information may be found in our [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/248331271?sort=0&page=0]#Help Known Issues thread[/url].[/quote]
[quote][u][b]Gambit Suspension Issues:[/b][/u] We are currently investigating an issue where players are being suspended in error from Gambit due to disconnections. Until resolved, players may encounter 15 minute suspensions when disconnecting from Gambit matches. We are currently investigating server side changes to matchmaking for this activity to mitigate the issue. Additional information will be provided when available.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Masterwork Core Economy:[/u][/b] We have just made a server-side fix to correct an issue that was compromising the economy for Masterwork Cores. Until a permanent solution can be deployed, once players reach Legend rank in Gambit Infamy, they will only be able to acquire the Trust Handcannon once.[/quote]

The gambit one especially hurts. just remove the penalty altogether until it can be fixed. don't leave it in.

So nothing about the "economy" actually. Or even about how we get shafted out of our "powerful engrams" due to no fault of our own? Subclasses? Well of Souls? Pfft .. I thought this was going to be important.

Edited by Justin_Giver: 9/10/2018 8:01:43 PMthat is a bs response to the powerful engram or lack thereof. Some of us are trying to get raid ready and by messing with our progression we may not be able to raid because we will not get a reset for Tuesday. WE GET SHAFTED. The appropriate thing to do would be to hard reset everyone tuesday so that everyones weeklies and the dailies simply start a new and forgive everything that happened previously. I used my time on the weekend to run another character through the story and to run my first character through the weeklies.. I find out now that my scheduled game time screws me out of not only next weeks progression but, last weeks as well. That isn't right at all. Those powerful engrams were not my fault, neither was my choice to play based on the schedule you had told us would happen. Yet because of your glitch, I as a player loose out on two weeks worth of powerful engrams. I honestly can't see how you plan to fix this unless you provide me with powerful engrams prior to friday to make up for your mistake. Also, are you really asking players not to play the game in fear of tripping the faulty weekly reset issue of no powerful engram and no reset for next week?

Telesto Glitch?

Awesome response time with notifying the player base. Hope the fixes come soon!

Edited by Corrupted Light: 9/10/2018 7:56:58 PMAlso looks to me that if someone plays the game alot will get their prime engrams nerfed because they chose to play the game alot to get more? No one even new about an exploit until like today..... so I played blind well for 8 hours straight got a bunch of prime engrams now im being nerfed because of it? Fix your shit man...

The raid glitch is really worthless.... in why people are upset. Almost all the gear people got from it didn't even have raid specific mods. Also it was low light level. People should be more concerned about there being a powerful engram exploit if we are talking about worlds first and that will have a WAY bigger impact than 2 piece of raid gear with a low light level. Also, it's in Bungies ToS that exploits are not bannable unless people use 3rd party manipulation to cause them.

3 Replies[quote] Players who completed Challenges after the faulty reset on Saturday were not given powerful rewards, and will not receive a proper challenge reset on Tuesday for these activities.

[/quote] I'm not sure what Bungie can do to make this right for folks like me who thought the Saturday reset was part of the new 4 day schedule and ended up with useless 500LL drops. We'll be running behind anyone who found out about this problem later.

i did the chest thing and i don't know if it was just me but my weapon was absolute trash. it was at 500 light lvl hand cannon and was hitting for lower then my 495 light lvl hand cannon. so i just trashed it

Edited by Niinja Slayer: 9/10/2018 7:47:11 PMSo you’re giving me even more reason to not log in because I won’t be getting light level increases because of your problems with the game Bungie? I would love to play more but I’m not going to if your exploits in the game and accidental resets that didn’t even give powerful gear and I won’t be able to get powerful gear when the reset [i]does[/i] occur. This shouldn’t have consequences for any players at all. We should get our usual powerful gear on reset and Prime engrams should drop as normal throughout the week once fixed. We should not be penalized because we got more than you expected us to get. Good job Bungie. I get that these fixes take time but don’t penalize us player for your errors. Forsaken is a great expansion but don’t give us reasons to not log in because we can’t progress for the next week or two.

And what about people that had full consumables and didn't get the offering to complete the weekly bounty?
-
20 RepliesStill broken then? Can’t believe people paid good money for a DLC that’s suppose to be the saviour of Destiny 2. Only to find it’s gotten worse. It’s beyond unbelievable.
-
So the people who unknowingly completed weeklies get penalized, but those that intentionally exploited the game are good to go. What the actual -blam!-. So much for being raid ready by Friday.
-
Thank god im not at home playing forsaken as all these cheeses would really piss me off. Played forsaken from release to last Friday and managed to get to 515 light and I have to say having an absolute blast. I knew I would love this DLC and it’s ticked every box I was hoping for. Then last Friday I went on holiday to Portugal for 6 nights and this the first time I’ve checked the forums since I’ve been away and I’m now glad I’m in holiday. Hopefully you can get these bugs fixed by the time I get back but knowing bungie probably not. To any of the people that have raid armour and weapons you need to get a grip of yourself as your going to feel like shit beating a raid encounter for the first time and get a drop you already have and not having that feeling when you get a new drop. But tbh bungie should have never of let this happen as of course people are going to exploit it as they have done with every other cheese since Destiny . Just curious on one thing tho ! What light level is everyone up too now? I’m on 515 light from Friday and was hoping to be high enough light for the raid on Friday as I will home from holidays Thursday night and will grinding all day Friday

My power went out on Saturday night during the first match of gambit. It was only off for 8 seconds but when ps4 came back up & loaded destiny I had a warning saying if ti happened again I could be suspended. I had to laugh. I was put back in match for beginning of second round so that feature worked nicely.
-
This is complete and utter garbage I’m playing the game like I usually do and when a prime engram drops I pick it up and go turn it in as soon as I get it yet my prime attunment doesn’t go away am I suppose to stop playing so this exploit doesn’t cause me to lose out in the future And the people that glitched out of the map to gain rewards there not suppose to is A ok in your book Love the game dislike how your dealing with this
-
What about petra ‘s rewards not being powerful. I paid the 40 dark shards, completed oracle offering, and got 2 non-powerful rewards for it. I’ve literally watched streamers get powerful rewards for the same thing just 2-3 days ago. That makes 5 powerful engrams I’m missing. And no chance to get them next week. To top it off, my 3 powerfuls I did get this week were 3 warlock bonds - which wouldn’t matter by itself. But I’m literally locked out of content because of this...with higher ilvl npc ‘s being simply immune.
-
4 RepliesWhisper event is also bugged. The boss during the taken blight event doesn't spawn in.
-
well I guess all my characters are screwed out of drops next week.
-
2 RepliesTelesto is still the besto for Blind Well. 😏

3 RepliesWhat about exotic drops?

My mate just tried it....chest was empty

Thanks for the update!

7 RepliesEdited by V5thNov: 9/10/2018 7:29:37 PMSo your incompetence is going to f!ck a good portion of your player base because you can't reset the weekly powerful engrams smh, just when I think you're trending in the right direction you continually prove me wrong. You need to stop everyone in the game from being able to open the weekly powerful engrams after reset if you want a genuine race to world's first. I'm getting the raid done within the first 24 hours, you f!cking with my light level for putting time and effort into the game and for actually playing it is an insult. Get your sh!t together you morons.
