In Destiny 2 maintenance work is expected today on PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Google Stadia – including server downtime and a new hotfix – Update 2.9.1.1. Read everything about the procedure and patch notes here.
This is what to expect today: A new update is scheduled for July 14 in Destiny 2 for all platforms and systems. The hotfix 2.9.1.1 is waiting for download this evening.
The hotfix is now available for download on all platforms. On PS4, it has the version number 1.56 and is 157 MB in size.
This is accompanied by maintenance work and server downtime. So today, you will not be able to play Destiny for a while. MeinMMO will inform you here about the important times and give insight into known issues.
Maintenance on July 14 in Destiny 2
The maintenance work will start earlier than usual today and is expected to last until the evening. If you want to switch to Destiny 1, it should be noted that the servers are also being maintained there.
These are the important times:
- At 15:00 German time, the maintenance work will begin
- At 15:45, the downtime will start – the Destiny servers will go offline. Players will then be removed from their activities and returned to the login screen
- At 19:00, the servers will go online again, the update 2.9.1.1 will be rolled out on all platforms – a bit earlier, the hotfix has been live since 18:25. After loading the update, you can log back into Destiny 2 (remember the copy process)
- By 23:00 tonight, the maintenance should be completely finished
Destiny 1 players, by the way, can return to the servers as early as 17:00.
Note: As always, during maintenance and the time afterward, there may be queues and login problems in Destiny 2. But also, if the time window until 23:00 is quite large, you should be able to start again shortly after the reset (19:00).
What changes with hotfix 2.9.1.1?
This is what we know: Currently, it is not really known what is included in hotfix 2.9.1.1. Whether the rather long maintenance work results in additional content for Season 11 or if some fixes will be implemented, we will only find out in the official patch notes.
These issues are known to Bungie and are being investigated (via Bungie.net):
- Players should only destroy Savathûn’s Eyes using the exotic pulse rifle “Withering Image“. Progress does not count toward the triumph “Hive-God Optician” in the “Triumph Moments 2020” seal if a player destroys Savathûn’s Eyes with the spheres generated by “Withering Image”.
- The armor mod “Glowing Blade” does not always display with armor from Season 11.
- The energy converter mod does not grant super energy if a player already has more than 50% of their super. This is intentional.
- Raid armor ornaments for “World Devourer” and “Star Stream” are no longer displayed in players’ collections.
- Some players cannot progress in the quest “Means to an End”. While Bungie continues to investigate, players can continue the quest with another character or join other players who have already started the mission.
- Players who have not collected the reward after completing the quest “Means to an End” in a previous week will be excluded from receiving and completing it the following week. Players can reacquire the quest in the week following the blocked week.
- Players who cannot start the mission “Interference” may be able to play and complete it by joining someone who is already in the mission.
- We are still investigating the BEAVER error code that frequently appears on the Steam platform.
Perhaps one of the noted annoyances will be resolved today.
What’s in the patch notes for update 2.9.1.1 / 1.56 for Destiny 2
When will the patch notes be available? The official patch notes for update 2.9.1.1 are now available.
Here we have linked the English change log since the German version is still missing:
However, there are no big surprises or nerfs/buffs on the agenda.
What do you think is included in today’s update? Is Destiny 2 possibly preparing for the big evacuation of half the solar system? After all, the relocation of the NPCs is supposed to take several weeks, and recently we could tackle the preparation quest.
