This Week At Bungie – 12/3/2020 | This week at Bungie, we prepare for next gen.

Tuesday (12/8) Update patch sizes seemed pretty important and worth repeating. If you were lucky enough to get onto a new console, plan accordingly since there will be no pre-loading and you will have to redownload the entire title.

When Update 3.0.1 releases on December 8, next-gen console users (Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5) will need to download the full-size game, regardless if they have been playing Destiny 2 since Beyond Light’s launch. This does not affect Xbox One, PlayStation 4, or Steam users. Pre-load will not be available for this patch - pre-loads are usually only available for expansion type patches and are not available for hotfixes or seasonal updates.

The estimated patch sizes for Update 3.0.1 based on platforms are as follows:

• Xbox Series X|S - download size: ~70.0 GB
  
• PlayStation 5 - download size: ~67.0 GB
  
  
• Xbox One - download size: ~2.35 GB
  
• PlayStation 4 - download size: ~2.09 GB
  
• Steam - download size: ~1.5 GB

Known Issues

• ...
  
• Multiple ships have their rocket effects floating behind the ship model.
  
• Shiver Strike Titan melee does not function with the Heavy Handed mod.
  
• Collections go back to the main menu instead of to the previous section.
  
• HDR isn’t working as intended.
  
• We’re investigating player reports that their veteran dialogue has been replaced with new character dialogue.

It feels good that the ongoing HDR growing pains were acknowledged through official channels. It would be great to hear more.
