Destiny 2 should receive hotfix 2.7.0.2 today, January 14, on PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Google Stadia. However, the planned update has been postponed.
Actually, a small fix for Destiny 2 was supposed to be implemented tonight, January 14, in the form of a hotfix. However, this has been postponed. Bungie officially announced this via Twitter. Additionally, the winter Dawning event is supposed to end today.
No maintenance work and server down in Destiny 2 on January 14?
The maintenance has been postponed: For Destiny players in our region, hotfixes usually come at an inconvenient time: after work.
In the past, maintenance has typically been scheduled from 5 PM to often 9 PM. The corresponding update is usually available around 6 PM – at the same time as the weekly reset.
However, today these maintenance works are cancelled. At least that is what the Destiny developer announced on Bungie Help on Twitter. It currently looks like you can enjoy your evening with Destiny in relaxation. The reason for the postponement is currently unknown (8:15 AM on January 14).
What should change with update 2.7.0.2 in Destiny 2?
Tonight is the planned end of the Christmas event. Even without the hotfix, the Dawning will likely go offline for the rest. So take the time until then to bake properly and collect rewards.
Update 2.7.0.2 was also supposed to fix some known issues in Destiny 2. A fix for these errors was announced:
- A bug causes Tess’ Eververse icon in the Tower to flash, even if you have nothing to do or collect there. Not a game-breaking bug, but still annoying.
- Significantly more disturbing is the bugged obelisk in the EDZ. It was actually planned for Guardians to finally interact with the object without any issues today. Clearly, a little more patience is needed here.
Moreover, Bungie was supposed to address the exotic bow Wishender with today’s update. This bow deals insanely high damage in certain situations. However, most players do not perceive this as an issue.
On the contrary, for many, bows (okay, one bow) are now really fun for the first time. The community manager has also forwarded this feedback to the relevant teams at the Destiny developer. He does not rule out a possible bow buff in the future.
So it looks like the Robin Hoods and Legolas impersonators among the Guardians will have to wait a little longer to shoot powerful arrows.
These issues are also known: Bungie’s development team informs that they are also working on other issues that are planned to be addressed later:
- The quest for the exotic bow Leviathan’s Breath causes difficulties. The weapon from Season 8 cannot currently be approached by all players.
- The gesture “Wacky Laughter” is causing trouble. It cannot be unequipped once it is already equipped.
- Also, the gunsmith Banshee-44 is causing frustration with his bounties.
