With a little over a month left until Destiny 2 Lightfall releases, the game isn't in the best of shape from a technical point of view. Amidst the case of character deletion in the community, the company has to shift its priorities to keep its player base and launch intact.

A recent post on Reddit by u/Sir-Shady brought up multiple instances of technical issues, and many in the community share the sentiment. While the entirety of The Witch Queen did face similar issues, players hope that Bungie will change things up for the better before Lightfall's release.


Bungie is in a tight spot due to technical issues in the current Destiny 2 season

The Destiny 2 community has been pretty vocal regarding the lags and bugs in Year 5. Bungie even had to reduce the number of players in a single instance, just to fix the delayed response in a user's inventory.

However, the company is yet to launch a permanent fix. Other problems include delayed responses upon activity completion, connection issues, crashes, and much more.

The latest Reddit post that addresses the concern comes from u/Sir-Shady, who stated the following:

"Constant delays with rewards and xp, characters deleting, horrible connection in pvp and even PvE. I’m just as excited for Lightfall as everyone else but this is super concerning."

The Redditor said they were open to suggestions and even provided one of their own:

"I won’t pretend to know a fix but this really only became a huge issue with Witch Queen, so I imagine something they added then is the cause of this. Maybe it’s weapons leveling up or something. Either way I hope it’s sorted out soon."

The post is understandable as they think the recurring issues are due to something that was added back in February last year, such as The Enclave or Crafting. While that might be the case, players aren't required to pinpoint the issue.

Instead, they can head over to Cozmo's (community lead) feedback post on Reddit to let them know about any ongoing problems.

Most Redditors shared their problems regarding the current season and the entries that came before Destiny 2 Season of the Seraph. As mentioned earlier, players have come swarming in with reports of their in-game characters getting deleted due to server issues, which is probably the worst bug ever in Destiny 2.

Hence, Bungie has a lot to take care of ahead of its major expansion release on February 28. The new core gameplay features will include in-game LFG, loadout managers, LFG ranks, and more.
