In the world of Destiny 2, a planned downtime is approaching, so the Guardians will have to take an unwanted break from the search for Riven’s secrets in Season 23. MeinMMO has the exact times of the downtime for you.
18:10: No delay. The update just went live. On PC, it is 374.87 MB in size. Download it, and you can restart Destiny 2.
18:00: No feedback from Bungie yet. The servers remain offline. But the patch notes are already available.
15:15: Destiny 1 and 2 will be taken offline due to expected maintenance.
What you need to know today: Today, Tuesday, Destiny 2 will be temporarily shut down for updates. The servers will not be accessible, and players will be logged out of the game.
Bungie has not been doing its updates weekly anymore. Therefore, there has been no maintenance interruption for two weeks. However, maintenance is still necessary in the long term to implement technical improvements, fix bugs, and ensure the overall stability of the game. Also in light of the upcoming DLC “The Final Shape,” Bungie is working on optimizing its systems:
- Bungie has equipped its data center with new hardware.
- Recently, the Destiny 2 game services have been able to restart automatically as soon as they detect problems.
- Currently, they are working on load and stress tests for
The Final Shape
and new features to accelerate the recovery of parts of the Destiny infrastructure.
In this article, we have summarized the procedure and schedule for today’s Update 7.3.0.1. This way, you know when you cannot play.
This season will be briefly interrupted today by the update:
Maintenance on 05.12. – All times for the server downtime
These times are important today: Bungie informs its players via Twitter/X about the planned downtime. The planned downtime is 2 hours and 45 minutes.
This is the exact schedule for the maintenance:
- At 14:00, background maintenance will start on all platforms.
- At around 15:15, the servers will go offline. Players will be automatically kicked from the game.
- During the downtime, Bungie will gradually roll out Update 7.3.0.1 so that players on all platforms can download and install it.
- At 18:00, the shooter is expected to be back online, and you can log in again.
- Maintenance will continue in the background until 20:00.
Also, be aware that third-party applications and the official companion app may not be accessible correctly for a while, so you cannot use them.
What changes with Update 7.3.0.1 in Season 23
What will be included in Update 7.3.0.1: Bungie has a publicly accessible to-do list of items that are currently not functioning correctly in the game. This is actively influenced by Destiny 2 players by reporting bugs on the Bungie forum.
The following bugs are currently on Bungie’s to-do list:
- The maps of the Great Arcana in the Season of the Witch erroneously state that they expire at the end of Season 22 and not the end of Season 23.
- Some new Guardians may not be able to spawn in the Tower Hangar when trying to complete the quest “A Guardian Rises.”
- When the automatic melee setting is activated, glaives almost always execute double melee attacks.
- Guardians may receive a BIRD error in activities with high combat density when they use builds that can defeat combatants in large numbers in a short time.
- Bungie is still investigating the issue where Guardians cannot fully complete the challenge “There Can Be Only One” in Crota’s End.
- Some emojis in the fireteam finder will not be available at the start of the beta test on certain platforms.
- The dismantle perk does not refund the ammunition for fusion rifles correctly.
- The offering for the Oracle cannot be submitted at the Oracle machine.
- Checkmate control does not count towards the progress of the weekly challenge.
- The rewards for Guardians who have completed the seasonal activities “Riven’s Hideout” and “The Weaving” are not dropping regularly.
- The pulse rifle “Belisar-D” no longer drops for players who complete their placement matches in the competitive crucible.
- The title “Star Baker” is no longer available.
- The “Festival of the Lost” quests are still showing up for some Guardians.
- Some rocket launchers are no longer displayed in the preview screen.
- New dungeon and season armor sets will be displayed in the appearance screens of players, even if they are not unlocked.
- Activity Ghost mods use placeholder icons.
- Occasionally, Eva Levante’s head may be missing.
- Veist auto rifles can partially rotate out of the screen in the inspection view.
- Players can die by finishers if the enemy dies before the finisher animation is completed.
- The armor mods “Mighty Friends” and “Radiant Light” require at least one armor charge to be activated.
- The resilience stat determines the damage resistance of the previous tier when it is a multiple of 10. A resilience of 100 provides the intended benefit in a reasonable way.
- If you die in the boss arena of the Hypernet Power Strike, the Guardian’s ghost may get stuck in the ground.
- Player name changes are not infinitely customizable via bungie.net. Several “number Guardians” are still waiting for the option to change their player name again, instead of receiving the message “You have no name changes available.”
This is not an exhaustive list of all known issues, but rather a targeted list of specific sources of bugs. If further defects occur within the game, it would be helpful if you could inform us in our comment section.
