Destiny 2 Dev Tracker

I'd like to add more context. My reaction to this wasn't solely off of the one report, but that a few personal friends and community members had commented on the joke feeling offensive, some of whom said it put focus on their disabilities. While many had never heard the joke in this context, quite a few had. Sometimes it's a breakdown of regional slang/slander, other times it's simply not meeting someone who desires to hurt others with the specific joke.

That said, the broad statements and phrasing of my response was harmful in the overall conversation. I put far too much focus on one group, as opposed to speaking to how the joke can be harmful and insulting to many, even if it was meant in good fun. To anyone who was hurt by this, I absolutely apologize, and am taking the time to learn and do better in the future. I had made another comment on twitter, but this was an example of me taking the stage and speaking on matter that I should have left to others. I would much rath...

This is something the team is looking at. Not just for Tommy's Matchbook, but all Season Pass exotics and catalyst quests.

I don't know if players would retain the full buff, or if quest progression requirements would be reduced with a portion of the buff still active, but they're on the case.

Once we have more info, we'll let you know!

We reduced the requirements in hopes of offsetting some of the sting. Many apologies on that one.

I've actually had several people reach out to me recently about this and sent their feedback to the team last week. Thanks!

The team believes they have identified the cause, but are still working out exactly how to fix. Earliest we can expect this to be addressed is fall.

We’ll keep you in the loop if a fix is found and can be made earlier.

Yeah that is generally the reason.

Lights that are part of the player sandbox can appear anywhere in our world, so we can't carefully cater the scenes GPU cost towards them, so they have to render quite cheap, achieved through both limiting their size or the complexity of the lighting effects — thankfully these lights tend to be temporally quite rapid so you can get away with it. Since we know that combat won't be present around flashlight areas we can use more expensive lights that are actually casting dynamic shadows on their surroundings.

Generally speaking the cost of a light is proportionate to the amount of pixels that it hits on screen, rather than the shape of the light (omnidirectional, spotlight, line, etc.). Things like shadow casting are so costly that we enforce a total number of shadow casting lights that can be on screen at a single time, this is why you won't ever find the effect on any lights that are part of the player sandbox.

I'll make sure it's logged.

Looks like this is planned for the july update. We'll keep you updated when we know more.

In the best way.

Thanks for throwing this together. I believe the player support team is tracking the majority of these, but I'll check with them to make sure.

We'll have a quick patch note preview tomorrow for 2.9.0.2, which is scheduled for next week. More controller remapping issues will be addressed (dodge issues) - along with a few other general bugs (S10 AR quest missing).

We're cooking up another patch that should be out in early July. Will try to get an update next week on what's included in there - but some of the issues still need investigation.

As always, be sure to post issues directly to the help forum on Bungie.net. That way player support can pull your account data and we can get a better snapshot of what state your character is in.

Confirmed. It's a direct donation to St Jude.

Just because you can fix something doesn't mean you should. Maybe it was better broken.

That is definitely feedback I can give the team. I'll let them know that many players would rather the powerful rewards continue to drop from Umbral Engrams.

Working on a fix for these.

Some have already pointed out some of the technical reasons on why some fixes are able to made quickly, while others take more time. If we ever fix something within a day or so that usually means that it was something that was able to be fixed server-side and didn't require a lot of testing to verify. It's always nice when we have that option, but it's not always the case and most bugs require an update to the game which is a much more complex process that takes more time and testing.

We have an update currently in flight which should go out tomorrow that addresses some high priority issues such as the controller sprint bug and a blocking issue on the opening quest. Sorry that these fixes take some time. We're working on it.

You should really give us a mechanism for infusing the newer version of the SAME WEAPON into the old one.

I'll definitely share this idea with the team. We're sharing all of the feedback on reissued weapons we are seeing. I've seen some players say that if weapons are reissued they should have updated perks. Let us know what you think.

Speaking with the team, they're looking to add more of these in Season 12. We'll have more info over the summer, so stay tuned.

Yep, we've been passing feedback that many players don't enjoy this large power bump between seasons. Let us know if you think the smaller 10 power bumps between seasons was fine or if you would only like to see power bumps during expansions.

Looking into this now, thanks for the report.

It's a copypasta.

Yea it will apply to both the current items you have and any future ones you earn.
