Why is this the new normal for Bungie?

I remember Bungie telling us the biggest lie ever about the need to have a DCV. Game stability they said...the fact is the game this year has had so many issues to the point where I play the game with the understanding that something will be bugged. I see Bungie taking down the game every week for hours, which no other game is doing by the way, and nothing changes. When did we allow losing 2-4 hours every weekly reset to be the new normal experience in Destiny. This wasn't a thing. And if the game was better I would be willing to not say anything but the year of episodes has had the most amount of bugs I have ever seen in this game. Act 1, Act 2 and one weekly reset had issues on launch in this episode alone. We pay 100 euros to have 80% of cosmetics in eververse and bad game experience. Yes the story is good (this season...) but it's not enough. Bungie has always talked about high quality bars but I guess there are no bars now.

  • What issues are you having? I have been playing since the D1 Beta and I rarely have issues playing. I think a lot of the issues people have are due to their PC's or their ISP's. I have never really had a bug or a glitch happen that kept me from playing and enjoying the game. Sure there might be broken abilities for a few months but nothing that keeps me from playing. I often wonder if the people who complain so much are playing on like phone hotspots or Mcdonalds Wifi lol

      • My understanding was the [b]D[/b]estiny [b]C[/b]ontent [b]V[/b]ault, plainly removing parts of the game, was due to the sheer size of everything and consoles at the time wouldn't be able to handle it, and players wouldn't want to keep Destiny 2 if it meant 98% of their hard drive was 1 game. Stinks, but physical limitations exist. As far as bugs in 2025, I have noticed the "known issues" in their TWID growing each week and not being resolved. Just adding to the pile with each bit of content drop fed. But they lost 17% of their workforce, lost staff who've been around since the beginning, are beholden to the Sony shareholders, did not deliver sales that triggered contractual loss of their own company, don't have the staff to test bugs beforehand or now the staff to fix bugs timely... and it's all running on an ooold engine. But when the stars align and everything does work, I have fun!

        • You’ve been following all the news last few years with Bungie ? Bungie are a former shadow of themselves now . Really bad decisions made from upper management, how they treated their staff and players . D2 is what it is now …bungie are just purely maintaining to keep the money rolling in to fund marathon and to stay afloat . The whole original team are gone now and the devs are being told what to do .

        • This is a weird post just to say how you don't understand how maintenance on a game works. Also, it's a video game. You can handle not playing for a little while they do maintenance, and if not, then you definitely are someone who needs to be forced to take a break from it while they do said maintenance.

        • It's an online game expect servers to be taken offline for maintenance especially for a old engine that wasn't designed for this

          • Brother, every live service game out there has maintenance downtime.

          • To allow would imply we have a choice in the matter, which we obviously don't.
