Patch Note Preview: Destiny 2 Hotfix 2.8.1.1.

This Wednesday, April 29, we’re planning to release Destiny 2 Hotfix 2.8.1.1. This patch will have fixes for bugs that have popped recently, and also has a quick tuning pass for a weapon that’s been shining a little too bright in the Crucible since Season of the Worthy began. Hard Light, a name that may either strike fear or pure joy in your heart, will be the subject of today’s article. Here are some notes from the team on how this weapon will be tuned come tomorrow morning: [quote][b]Dev Team: [/b]Hard Light has been at the forefront due to a combination of recent adjustments to improve its usability and the adjustments to Auto Rifles that came with patch 2.8.0. Most of the adjustments coming on Wednesday are to address its usage for mouse and keyboard users since the ability to precisely aim regardless of range allows you to use the weapon at longer distances, on top of being able to use ricochets more effectively. Although weapons like the Fighting Lion can also do what Hard Light does for indirect fire, they are generally less effective during a direct confrontation. Hard Light boasts a lot of great stats, and its impact grows with more players using it - eventually no cover is safe. As such, we’re reducing some of the aspects that allow for indirect fire and unexpected lethality in odd scenarios, while still retaining some of the bonuses to keep the flavor. Hard Light - Hard Light's damage falloff now floors at 0.7x (Auto Rifles use 0.5x standard). - Split ricochet bonus damage between PvE and PvP. -- PvE damage remains at 2.0x damage. -- PvP damage is now 1.35x damage. - Removed a hidden recoil adjustment that made the weapon more stable than intended.[/quote] Stay tuned to Bungie.net for official patch notes, and @BungieHelp on Twitter for updates on our release timeline.

  • When will Bungie wake up and realize the vast majority just doesn’t care about pvp or have any desire to partake in their version of it. Stop catering to the streamer pvp crowd and stop wasting time creating “watchable” nightfalls..... literally next to no one cares!! You know what does sell games? For starters dedicated servers, a clear direction of the game as well as the polished version you guys keep rambling on about but never deliver. You know word or mouth, reason myself and all friends quit is obvious right now and if the game was based more towards quality and fun vs. eververse and bounties maybe we would have stuck around. F2p is not the answer, seasonal passes with content that disappears is not the answer, time gated fomo is not it either and you do not need eververse either. Create a good game with quantity and quality, charge commensurately and stop trying to make the game for everyone, pick the few demographics you want and stick with it!! Stop trying to cater to literally every type of player and focus on smaller group. Because imo you are trying to please every type of gamer with destiny fight now but in reality non of them are actually happy.

      • Bungie: "it's all playable terrain". Omolon: it has zero damage fall-off. Hmmm... Well, at least we're getting some consistency; stating something to boost sells, and later reneging on that promise. Kudos.

        • So hypothetically speaking, I play a 6v6 crucible match and win, BUT 1 member of the match made team, not in a pre-made fire team was cheating and no one knew. The match completes and we all get rewards. We would all be banned for no reason through no fault of our own according to your policy Bungie. How does this make sense?

          • Ignored all other issues for the simple "see we are listening" fix.....does this really surprise anyone in this game anymore? People paid for content the devs jacked up and can no longer be used but hey, lets go show em we are listening. Similar to the emblem suicide no one cared or asked for yet dev time was spent and data was deleted. Still hasn't been fixed or restored now has it? Typical Bungie, wait until bigger issues overshadow the others and we all forget and move on. Now everyone will be up in arms about an exotic nerf and forget about some of the other issues for a time if not forever. We are so stupid and predictable.......

Some people haven't been able to play the game for months now due to this error, you also have to keep in mind that the people who are dealing with the error have spent money to be able to play the game. Another point to add is that the people who are experiencing the error are also missing out on the guardian games cosmetics, the night fall seal, the flawless seal, the almighty seal and all of the eververst cosmetics that are being sold in the store.

                • It’s not really exotic if the fall of is the same as other autos is it.

                • Kudos for the Hard Light nerf but the issue is all 600 RPM Auto Rifles, not just Hard Light. There's absolutely no reason for them to have as quick of a TTK as they currently do due to the nature of Auto Rifles where missing one shot doesn't hurt as much as with something like a Handcannon. (Spray type weapons should never be superior to precision weapons at higher skill levels) Also please look into adjusting Antaeus Wards in some way..preferably making the shield only block frontal damage so it at least takes some thought to use properly.

                    • It would be nice if you actually fixed the watercress and newt errors that are still making Destiny unplayable for a portion of the player base. Also somehow the patch yesterday has actually made it worse! There isnt even anything to do with these issues in the patch notes, they seem to be getting ignore. Yet it's now worse! Wtf Bungie!

                      • If the director thinks making us weaker each update is called a challenge, then he needs to go. I feel a lot weaker as a guardian this last couple of months than I ever have. Now correct me if I'm wrong but this is what resilience says as a stat. [quote] It increases the amount of damage you can take before dying. [/quote] So we max it out to 100% or 100%+ but I'm still getting my ass handed by everything in this game as if the stat is empty, a fake stat just like some of the mods in this game that are empty that they are there just for looks. How much damage we can take shows no different than when it's half of a 100%. All these activities have a power level to them but no matter how high the stat says I can increase it, there is no change at all in how much damage I'm taking. Who is the director trying to fool here?

                            • Still feel like the change "Fixed an issue affecting the difficulty scaling of several activities including Whisper of the Worm and Zero Hour missions." from update 2.8.1 is not properly set. With the current settings I cannot help my friends do these activities because the difficulty scaling is far too high. Considering these activities have a recommended power level of 750 why is there a need to have increased the difficulty scaling? Throw new players a bone.

                            • It is about time. Literally everyone and their grandma was hardlighting-it-up in the crucible. It was stale, boring and predictable. That gun became an eyesore. Not even complaining about getting killed by it, as I even used it myself for a time. Just tired of seeing it.
