Destiny 2: Beyond Light is sort of right here and Season of Arrivals is coming to an in depth. As Bungie preps the web game for a bunch of recent content material, there are tweaks needing to be made for sure actions inside the present game. With main tech tweaks within the works, one of many points being briefly affected is the extremely popular Prophecy Dungeon.
In a current Bungie weblog publish, Destiny engineering director David Aldridge opened up a bit of bit about a few of the tech upgrades that shall be inflicting a brief disturbance in what gamers can and can’t partake in. The crew is shifting its mission scripting mannequin to run on the Physics Host as a substitute of the present Mission Host, which you’ll be taught extra concerning the distinction here. The total purpose behind this modification for the devs to have the ability to create extra “novel mission mechanics” with full entry to the game state versus the restricted choices offered by the Mission Host.
This new change is rolling out with Beyond Light, but the change isn’t as easy as pushing a button. Bungie, in a transfer of transparency, talked about that it’s potential that this roll out will embrace bugs at first whereas the behavioral adjustments regulate to the brand new host. According to Aldridge:
“The new scripting setting modified many behaviors in advanced methods, and you might even see attention-grabbing conduct adjustments or bugs in pre-Beyond-Light missions (and public occasions, and comparable) that have been initially constructed and examined on the earlier system. We’ve examined these missions closely and stamped out many bugs, however some will undoubtedly slip by way of. We’ll be monitoring and fixing remaining bugs over time. In some instances, these points have been extra extreme – for instance, they prompted the Prophecy dungeon to be unavailable briefly. We’re all excited for its triumphant return, slated for the top of this 12 months!”
Another addition to that is that gamers can now fireteam it up within the Tower versus having to cycle by way of an extended Tower reload. That could sound small, however as an avid Destiny participant I’m really trying ahead to this fairly a bit. Currently, even when you’re on the tower along with your pal in the identical server, it nonetheless boots you again to house. Being capable of hyperlink up extra seamlessly goes to be a pleasant little adjustement in the long term.
That being stated, this modification goes to imply a few in-game aspects will should be adjusted in anticipation of the aforementioned bugs. One of these actions is the Prophecy Dungeon, which is actually probably the most attractive dungeon created to date (to me). Not to fret although, will probably be again this 12 months. In a comply with up Reddit publish, Bungie confirmed Prophecy shall be again earlier than the top of December. So far, the neighborhood has been very understanding of this resolution and are glad the removing is not everlasting.
For now, Guardians can stay up for the street forward when Destiny 2: Beyond Light launches on November 10.
