Destiny 2 The Final Shape server issues leave players stuck in queue for hours BungieDestiny 2 The Final Shape marks the final chapter of Destiny 2\u2019s saga, the conclusion of a storyline that started with the original Destiny almost 10 years ago. And, with so many players vying to experience that story, the servers haven\u2019t been able to handle everyone trying to join. Even considering the DLC\u2019s massive file size that\u2019d require a lengthy download, the servers were almost immediately overloaded. Hours after launch, players still can\u2019t get in. And, according to those in both the Steam reviews and on Twitter\/X, there\u2019s a chance of getting kicked out even if you manage to get in. \u201cAbsolutely disappointed in the fact that I paid $60 for an expansion that I can\u2019t even play,\u201d a Steam user claimed. \u201cBeen waiting 3 hours to get in, I want my money back.\u201d \u201cI just don\u2019t understand why we constantly have these server issues every expansion lol how do they still not learn,\u201d said one X user. Bungie has confirmed its looking into these issues, but players aren\u2019t giving up on trying to brute force their way into the game. Bungie has since confirmed Destiny 2 is going through \u201cbackground maintenance,\u201d as developers try to fix sign-in issues while keeping the game live for The Final Shape\u2019s launch. Server issues aren\u2019t anything new for Destiny 2\u2019s expansions, since the wealth of new content attracts a ton of players who haven\u2019t touched the game in a while. Its nature as an always-online game requires players to log in, so servers getting overloaded makes sense. However, with the hype behind The Final Shape bringing in a player count of almost 300k on Steam alone, it\u2019s safe to say Bungie probably wasn\u2019t expecting their servers to be under this much load. What\u2019s worse, there isn\u2019t a formal queue players can wait in like, say, Final Fantasy XIV, a game that famously had to stop selling copies for a time because servers got so backed up. Players stuck in the queue have to keep trying to log in if they want a chance at playing the new expansion. Bungie has been posting regular updates on how server maintenance is going, and we\u2019ll keep you updated on if the situation improves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
