Destiny: The patch 1.1.2 is coming tonight, brings a larger vault, much more [Update]

In the MMO shooter Destiny, Patch 1.1.2 will be deployed this evening, April 14th. The update is expected to bring a larger vault, a different ammunition distribution in the Crucible, and numerous other changes.

Yesterday was really busy in Destiny: The new DLC got a release date and a trailer. But that’s not all. Last night at 1:00 AM our time, Bungie tweeted that Patch 1.1.2 is set to be deployed on Tuesday evening, April 14th, our time. The exact time is not quite clear. One can possibly expect that the servers will be shut down between 5:00 PM and 9:00 PM for the deployment of the patch, Update 1.1.2.

Update 1.1.2 brings mainly small improvements to daily life in Destiny

We have extensively introduced the content of the patch over the past few weeks. While no new game content is coming, there are several improvements that should significantly ease life and gameplay in Destiny.

• Some strikes will be made easier, which have so far been considered too long and tedious
• The bugs in the raids “The Glass Chamber” and “Crota’s End” are to be eliminated, especially those of the final bosses Atheon and Crota
• They want to significantly enlarge the vault

• Expanded options for graphic and sound settings are coming, especially color-blind players should benefit from this
• Players will be able to wear the helmet in the Tower
• Players can report others if they are not playing during strikes
• A sort of “child safety lock” will be introduced, so that one cannot accidentally delete exotic or other important items
• The ammunition distribution in the Crucible will be regulated differently, both green and purple ammunition will become rarer
• And much more that has not been revealed yet

The patch notes are not yet available. It is expected that there may also be some balance changes for weapons.

Update Tuesday, 6:00 PM: It is now 9:00 AM at Bungie. They have confirmed via Twitter that players can expect the Update 1.1.2 in the next few hours.
