After update 7.3.0.6 on Tuesday, there is still maintenance planned for today, Thursday, in Destiny 2. MeinMMO will tell you how this affects your playtime.
8:30 PM: Bungie has just successfully completed the maintenance. Players can log back into Destiny 2 immediately.
7:50 PM: The maintenance has been extended by 30 minutes.
6:00 PM: The Destiny servers have just gone offline. Players have been removed from ongoing activities and cannot log in until the maintenance is completed. The further schedule can be found further down in this article.
5:00 PM: Background maintenance has begun. During this maintenance, Destiny 2’s integration features on bungie.net will also remain offline, including the API.
What you need to know today: Today, Guardians in Destiny 2 need to prepare to take a short break in their galactic adventures, as Bungie will be taking a maintenance break.
This short interruption may seem like an unexpected pause for some Guardians, but it is crucial to provide you with the smoothest gaming experience possible.
As always, MeinMMO will inform you about the duration of the outage so you know exactly when you can’t play. Furthermore, we will update this article as soon as new information becomes available.
Maintenance on January 25 – All times for server down
These times are important today: Bungie informs its players via x.com (formerly Twitter) about the exact downtime. The servers are planned to be unreachable for a maintenance of 2 hours and 15 minutes today.
Here is the schedule for the maintenance:
- The background maintenance starts at 5:00 PM on all platforms.
- At around 5:45 PM, the servers will go offline. Players will be automatically kicked from the game.
- If everything goes well, the shooter will be back online at 8:00 PM and you can log in again.
Also, keep in mind that third-party applications and the official companion app may also not be correctly reachable for a while, so you cannot use them.
What changes with the maintenance in Season 23
Bungie has not specified the exact reasons for the maintenance. However, it is assumed that it aims to fix a recurring bug in The Convergence
. The developer stated:
We are investigating an issue where the “Belonging” modifier appears in the activity “The Convergence” after update 7.3.0.6. More information will be provided as it becomes available.
wrote Bungie via x.com (formerly Twitter)
While Bungie addresses this known issue, here are the latest problems that players reported to the developer in the Help Forum.
- Guardians do not receive the correct unlocking of the right Triumphs after acquiring ritual ornaments for the sword “Gallant Fire”.
- On some PCs, using the Alt key to access the desktop while the game is in full-screen mode can cause the image to freeze, requiring a restart of the game.
- The badge “Forged in Grace” does not display its name when players hover over the badge in the inventory.
- Some players are still unable to claim the title of the Season of Wishes as the last radio message is either faulty or missing.
- A Game2Give event emblem states that possession is required to equip it, even though it has been received.
- The Xûr glitch affects armor statistics.
- The post-raid statistic may incorrectly indicate that the damage dealt to the boss by all Guardians is 0. Name changes of players cannot be adjusted indefinitely via bungie.net. Many players are still waiting for the return of the option to change their player name instead of receiving the message “You have no name changes available”.
