Unversity at Buffalo update:Here is an email from UB's network admin:
Good morning [REDACTED],
To update you on the issue where we yet stand, we have not been able to resolve the problem based on the information at hand. We are pending an official solution from our equipment vendors which will enable the game to be played, without compromise in our network's security, quality, and availability.
We've reached to our vendor in hopes that a solution will become available, and I've written Bungie to see if they've been working with our equipment vendor, or could provide us with more information on the sitatuion.
An official communication regarding the status of this game will be released soon, but, in the meanwhile, I wanted to let you know that we continue to monitor the situation for any action we can take to resolve the issue.
Regards
[REDACTED]

Hey everybody, this was all Zilphy who has been getting the information, I am just relaying it to all of you. Thank him not me!
-
Thank you for doing this. When I called them earlier today the girl on the phone didn't even know what I was talking about. Hopefully it can be fixed soon!
-
Make sure to thank Zilphy! He is the one who has been getting all the information!

That's exactly the same issue I encountered upon calling them, thinking calling would be better because I'd be able to speak with someone directly. I called twice, and both times, the girl had no idea what I was talking about, even after allegedly "checking" on the issue after putting me on hold.

Yea, it was incredibly frustrating. Especially since some guy from UB IT was the first one to tell me that Destiny wasn't going to work before I had even attempted to play the game. Typical UB though.

I'm sorry to hear that...an issue like this is brushed off by most people who are unaffected by the issue. I live on campus and have Destiny but can't play it. Being part of UBIT just gets me a little closer to the fine details of this issue. I dig deeper than most others would working there because not only does it affect many gamers here at UB it also affects me and I also want it to work too! But in my position I have very little control over the ultimate decision at UB. The staff there are good people and I love working with all of them and it's a really good on campus job to have. Anyways the point I'm trying to make here is that there are people at UBIT who care about this issue (including myself) but there are limitations to how much we can do about it. That email is the current state of the issue. The reason I've been updating people here is because I know some people at the help desk don't know what this is and I just want to make sure people here get the accurate information because some people won't tell everything or won't know enough about it. **Sorry for the rant**

Well, I appreciate what you are doing and just the fact that you guys are trying is good enough with me haha. Judging from a lot of these posts, most schools are just brushing it aside. I'll make sure to keep checking back here for any more updates. Thanks again!
-
I was about to email UB IT but I see that you already did. Thanks for taking the initiative with this issue I appreciate it.
-
That's unfortunate indeed, but I'm glad that there is a resolution being actively sought after by our IT Department. Thanks for the update, I (and I'm sure others from UB) greatly appreciate it.
-
Basically a waiting game now for UB students, to others don't bother emailing Bungie, our guys are working on it...don't crowd their inbox that will lead to a slower resolution time.

Your IT department is so much more helpful and nicer than the one here at temple
