Destiny 2 Update Adds Masterworks Weapons, Full Patch Notes

Published

on

Destiny 2 is at it again with another update to try to calm the fires of an angry, frustrated and disappointed fan base.

The update has been released following the latest batch of server maintenance. Bungie has released the full patch notes and details for update 1.1.1.1.

Prometheus Lens, has now been fixed, nerfed due to it’s overwhelming power in PvP, a move that anyone could have seen coming a mile away. Bungie commented on nerfing the gun by saying the weapon was “outputting too much damage too quickly.”

The Faction Rally Token exploit has been resolved and a bug that prevented HDR support from working on PS4 and PS4 Pro has been addressed as well.

The Prestige Leviathan Raid’s Power level requirement has returned to 300 and Bungie has addressed non-DLC owners being locked out of content. Trials of the Nine will be open to all players as long as the map isn’t locked out with the DLC.

Here are the patch noted according to Bungie.

Overwatch 2

Blizzard is leveling up their efforts to thwart cheaters and misconduct within Overwatch 2, as the company aims to penalize players who are friends with cheaters and will amp up their monitoring of voice communications.

The company detailed this in the brand new update for its Defense Matrix Initiative, which is focused on curbing “gameplay sabotage, abusive chat, and cheating” stating their plan to come down on players who team up with cheaters, and more.

Blizzard admitted that cheating in Overwatch 2 is a problem and has “actioned over 50,000 accounts” since the game launched and starting in Season 3 they will be actively identifying players that purposely team up with players who are regularly flagged as cheaters, and will also face potential discipline.

Overwatch 2 will also have improved protection for streamers, as the issue of Stream sniping continues to be a problem, and in Season 3 they will be “introducing new streaming protection features that should be a huge step toward enabling content creators to share Overwatch 2 with their fans safely.”

Blizzard is encouraging players to report any disruptive or problematic behaviour in their matches.
