Destiny 2 players beg Bungie to fix matchmaking exploit ruining Trials of Osiris matches BungieAn old Destiny 2 matchmaking exploit has now found its way into Bungie\u2019s revamped Trials of Osiris, and players are desperate for a fix to the issue that\u2019s ruining games for those on the receiving end. After struggling to find its footing inside Destiny 2 for more than a year, Trials of Osiris received a massive overhaul from developer Bungie in another attempt to revitalize the playlist \u2014 and this time, it seems to have worked out splendidly. Despite the massive success, Trials has hit a few snags in its second weekend during Season of the Lost, including the resurgence of something most players would rather leave behind: a game-breaking exploit that hands out free wins to the team using it. Disclaimer: we will not be detailing the exploit, and players should not make use of any unintended matchmaking functionality, as this is a bannable offense per Bungie\u2019s Code of Conduct. The issue first reached the wider Destiny 2 community when popular content creator \u2018GSXRClyde\u2019 shared a clip of himself and his teammates encountering an opposing team that used the exploit to rob them of a 5-1 Trials victory. As they prepared to enter the final round of that match, the streamer\u2019s squad noticed that the enemy team had started behaving strangely. \u201cMaybe they\u2019re trying to do some funny s**t to not take a loss,\u201d Clyde speculated. Immediately after, both the streamer and his teammates received a network error message and were booted from the game, followed by a \u201cmatch incomplete\/early quitter\u201d warning \u2014 intended for players who intentionally quit a competitive match before completion. Finally, as the cherry on top, the enemy team was handed a free win on a silver platter in what should have been a 5-1 blowout in favor of Clyde\u2019s fireteam.

This glitch has appeared in Destiny 2 before (plaguing the Competitive playlist in previous seasons), but this seems to be one of the first instances of an encounter with the exploit inside the revamped Trials playlist \u2014 and the replies to Clyde\u2019s tweet made it clear he wasn\u2019t alone. At the time of writing, Bungie\u2019s team hasn\u2019t responded to that tweet or otherwise addressed the clip, but it\u2019s likely they will work to get this exploit fixed as soon as possible, in order to prevent further instances of it occurring during Trials of Osiris matches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
