Patch 1.1 for Cyberpunk 2077 is now available on PC, consoles and Stadia! In this update we focused on various stability improvements, which you can find outlined in the patch notes below. We will continue this work in patch 1.2 and other upcoming updates. At the same time we will keep fixing the bugs you encounter and listening to your feedback on how to improve the overall game experience. Stability Various stability improvements including:

Active Ability Halo Drones: Deploy a cluster of halo drones at your location that will fire a barrage of rockets in the direction you are looking. Note: We have increased the inner and outer blast radius of these drones from their values on PTS. Passive Ability Legend’s Contract: Gain 1000 extra cash per down.
New Mode: Sabotage (COMING FEBRUARY 5TH!)
Welcome to our newest limited-time mode, Sabotage. In each round of this 4v4 match, both teams fight to take control of a neutral bomb and detonate it in the enemy team's zone or eliminate the enemy team's tickets. If you have the bomb, be careful because the enemy team can see you! Similar to Strikeout, you can respawn as many times as you like until you run out of tickets. A best of five rounds will determine the winner and you'll switch sides each time!
Each round lasts 4 minutes.
Each team has 40 tickets.
The respawn time is 7 seconds.
A team wins by planting the bomb or having the most tickets left when the round ends.
There is no defend time once you plant the bomb.
While a player is holding the bomb they are revealed to friendlies in green and enemies in gold.
The bomb will reset where it spawns if it gets thrown off the map or is idle for 30 seconds.
In Season One we are introducing boosts that you can earn at various levels in the Battle Pass. A few important notes:
These boosts will increase your base experience gained by 100% before bonuses.
Only one boost can be active at a time.
Once activated, the boost will continue running even if you are offline.
You can view and activate your available boosts in the "Boosts" menu found in the bottom left corner of the main menu.
Ranked Season One
Tiers and Divisions The climb to Rogue is not an easy one, and we want you to have a real feeling of accomplishment as you move up through the ranks. Season One will better define where players stand by introducing 6 new Tiers from Bronze to Rogue, the first five containing 5 separate Divisions.
Bronze
Silver
Gold
Platinum
Diamond
Rogue
With the new Ranked system, we want to create competitive matchmaking, and with this in mind, we are introducing new features to place you with players close to your skill. At the beginning of each Ranked Season, players will participate in 10 placement matches and placed in a Tier and Division based on their performance. The second way we are improving matchmaking for Ranked is the inclusion of party restrictions. In Season One you will not be able to queue in a party unless all members are within 6 divisions of each other. Reputation Gain and Leveling With Season One, we are removing the Level Reputation earned per match and providing it in a different way. The following changes have been made:
Rewards given at each level have been doubled.
Contract rewards have been increased significantly (300 and 500 per contract).
Contracts renewal will now provide you with 3 contracts at once per day instead of 1 every 6 hours.
New contracts have been added.
Some contracts have been adjusted to make them easier to achieve.

So I've been reflecting on Stadia as a service while trying to sell my premiere kit on Kijiji(planning to get back on Stadia after CCwGTV support). I offered to explain a couple potential buyers how it works and how they can test for free with a pro trial before making the purchase. They were actually pretty impressed how it ran on their laptop pretty smoothly and with their own PS4 controllers. Which brings me to this post. Do people not understand that this is legit the best thing to happen to gaming since online play? Sometimes I think we forget how far we've come as a society in terms of technology because we're living in it. If you told me 10-15 years ago that I had the flexibility of being able to play streamed next gen games on any potato laptop/phone with no input lag for a small monthly fee, I'd join in a heartbeat. Yes the library sucks for now but its getting better everyday and always available as a neutral option even if you own next gen consoles. With services like Xbox Gamepass, its clear flexible cloud gaming is the future so why people are choosing to have an expensive middle man is something I don't understand. The only reason I can think of is for exclusives which is fair and will probably be a reason I buy one of these consoles eventually when theyre cheaper. But as a patient and casual gamer, I'm completely fine with Stadia for now and hope it sticks around. The only criticism I have for Stadia is that there should be an option to download the game for life for offline play. It should be your responsibility as the owner of the game to ensure you have the hardware to run it if you want to play offline. If I pay $80 for a game like steampunk and theres a month I dont feel is worth paying Stadia for, I feel I should atleast have access to it offline. With that being said, this is a minor inconvenience I'm willing to put up with for fact that we live in an age where we can freakin stream next gen games on minimal hardware. EDIT: So TIL that you don't actually need a Stadia Pro membership to actually play games you purchased before:
What happens to the games that I purchased if my Stadia Pro subscription or trial subscription ends?You'll still be able to access and play the games that you purchased when you no longer have an active Stadia Pro subscription. Note that non-subscribers can stream games only up to 1080p resolution and 60 FPS.
Source: https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/49925 What’s better: One gift, or a bunch of gifts? Yeah. We thought so too. Today we’re releasing a few exciting things to enhance everyone’s Destiny 2 experience. Whether you’re a seasoned Guardian or a New Light, this is a great time to explore the world of Destiny. Kicking off the free updates are the next-gen optimizations originally announced during the launch of Beyond Light. These start with cross-play functionality that enables Xbox One owners to play with Xbox Series X|S owners and PlayStation 4 owners to play with PlayStation 5 owners. Guardians are immediately able to journey to Europa with everyone upgrading to next gen. Additionally, the new consoles tap into their cutting-edge hardware to vastly improve load times throughout Destiny 2. Everything from launching the game to opening menu screens and navigating through inventory became snappier and more responsive. The optimizations arriving today bring even more to the next-gen table (it’s a floating holographic table). Stunning 4K 60 FPS is now available on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. Not only that, but on supported displays, there’s even an optional 120Hz Crucible Mode that cranks things up to 120 FPS during Crucible PvP matches. Another first for Destiny console players is also landing today: Custom field of view settings. Now, the power to fine tune a Guardians field of view from narrow and focused to wide and perceptive is available on console. Upgrade from the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of Destiny 2 today absolutely free. Next up is the new Destiny 2 Companion App. This time-saving app allows players to swap gear loadouts, retrieve lost items from the Postmaster, manage clans, track progress, discover when events go live in game, find fireteams, and much more. Today’s update adds the ability to acquire bounties prior to an activity while they’re hanging out in the Tower, floating in orbit, or even completely offline. Want to launch Destiny 2 and get straight to the action? Grab those bounties in orbit, at the Tower, or before logging in. Download the app on iOS and Android today. Image Linkimgur 4K 60 FPS activated, Companion App installed, field of view locked in? It’s time to go get Hawkmoon. We called our shot on the Season of the Hunt page and now the quest is live. The fan-favorite Exotic from the original Destiny returns – time to hunt the Hand Cannon that makes every bullet count... some more than others. Image Linkimgur Last but not least, the Prophecy dungeon is back! The stylish dungeon originally released in Season of Arrivals returns and is available to all players. Whether you were too busy trying to save entire planets from the Pyramid ships or you’re new to the Destiny community (welcome, btw), everyone who missed out when it was first launched can now take a ride down the rainbow road. Image Linkimgur Thanks for reading and thanks for playing. Enjoy the holidays!
Source: https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/49918 This week at Bungie, we prepare for next gen. It’s been a while since we last spoke. I mean, it hasn’t been too long. We took a quick week off for holiday, but we’re back to the grind. There’s a bit to catch up on. Since the last TWAB, new Exotics have been discovered throughout Europa. Banshee has found new memories. The Deep Stone Crypt has been infiltrated. A dinosaur was sent into space. Quite a few of you have been asking about raid statistics. It’s always fun seeing how many players took on the challenge for a completion during the first week. We dug through our databases and found some fun stats to share, and we’re happily surprised by how many of you completed your first ever Jacket Quest. Day 1 Stats (Unique Raid Activity Clears)

A final fun fact: Over 979,680 Guardians unlocked The Lament since the quest went live. That’s a LOT of sword damage. Now that we’ve covered the time that’s passed, let’s get back to business.
Light Keepers – Charity Update!

Return of the Banner
With the raid done and dusted, Lord Saladin is ready to get Guardians back into the Iron Banner. This will be the first Iron Banner to feature Stasis powers, so we’re all excited for what’s to come. Image Linkimgur For any New Lights out there, Iron Banner is a limited time 6v6 Crucible activity with Power-enabled combat. While artifact power is disabled, you’ll want to infuse and equip your most powerful gear before jumping in. Similar to Control, there are three zones on the map for your team to capture. The more zones you hold, the more points you get when defeating Guardians. If your team is brave enough to capture all three zones, the opposing team will be locked out of capturing zones for a short duration. In other words, this is your time to shine while your enemies cower in fear. To say it clearly, capping those zones is one of the most important things you can do. Stay close to your teammates, slay your enemies, and enjoy the spoils of victory! Lord Saladin can be found in The Tower, offering Iron Banner bounties with pinnacle-powered rewards. If you’d like to adorn your Guardian in Iron Banner-themed loot, he’s got you covered. Two weapons from the first year of Destiny 2 have been reprised, now featuring random rolls! Additionally, the Iron Will armor set is making its return, updated to accept new combat mods. Image Linkimgur Iron Banner begins at 9 AM on December 8, running through 9 AM on December 15. Truth be told, you’ll be downloading an update right before Iron Banner becomes available. You know what that means? It’s time for a patch note preview.
It's All in the Patch... Notes

Don’t Fall for an Imposter
Image Linkimgur Since the Deep Stone Crypt raid went live, we’ve been watching numerous fireteams take on the challenge. For some, it was their first trip through pinnacle content in Destiny 2. Exploring new zones, encountering new bosses, and earning new loot is always exciting! For others, this was an opportunity to take things to the limit by taking on the challenge solo. Who needs a backpack? Movie of the Week: Solo Slayer Video Link Movie of the Week: Beneath the Ice Video Link Movie of the Week: Band of Bro Video Link If you’d like to throw your hat in the Movie of the Week ring, make sure to tag your video with #MOTW, submit it to the Community Creations page, and include any and all contributors to your video in the description.
Piecing Art Together

We frequently check Twitter, Instagram, and our very own Creations page for things to highlight. That’s a wrap for this week. A bit to look forward to next week, and even more over the course of December. Thanks to that community art, I've just realized it's almost time for the Dawning. More on that soon… Next week will be our final TWAB of the year. We’re entering a period where many of our employees will be spending time with family, celebrating the end of a year, and recharging for what’s to come in 2021. We’ll still be around to respond to your feedback, process bug reports, and keep the servers running. Now, it’s time for me to raid. Looking for a better roll on my Trustee scout rifle from the Deep Stone Crypt. Any suggestions? Cheers, -dmg04
How I shipped my game solo on consoles & how you can do that too (Q & A)
After a good launch for my game, i started to get some random questions from users across all the channels, but there were one user on reddit (u/TamoorGames) who had many questions and he sent them in a very nice and organized way (mostly asking about the Xbox and Nintendo Switch for each question), i did answer him. Although i own the answers, i did ask his permission to put his questions alongside my answers in public, just in case it can help someone. So, Enjoy it, and feel free to AMA. Q.1: Have you signed up as Individual or as a company? Or enrolled into Xbox Creator Program? Can you please share the overall process in a quick brief. - Singed by myself for both platforms, i only had to contact the ID@Xbox team, show them my game, they first didn't approve it as it was not polished enough, so i did try once more time after a couple of years, and then it was approved, and everything started from there. No not Creator Program, and tbh i don't even know what is Creator Program, will google it later. For Nintendo, I did reach out the Nindies guy who was always on the youtube videos and on twitter (he left by now, a new guy came, and that new guy just left a year ago or so). But in general, this is how i showed my game, just reaching out the nindies team leader. ================================================================================== Q.2: From which country you’d signed up? Is the Xbox Developer program available for developers all around the world? I’ll signup from Pakistan - I did from China while I'm not Chinese, i would say Microsfot is the most open company, they don't have per region issues, like for example if you are in China and try to sort things with Sony or Nintendo, it won't be that easy...not at all. Because you've then to go through Japan office (due to region), but then you targeting the western market and English only game...it becomes a lot of communications and troubles. ================================================================================== Q.3: Can we publish any game on Xbox? Or first we need to get concept approval from Xbox and then we can start our development. Or does Xbox have any categories on which we can only develop our games? e.g. shooting, puzzle etc - While the certain answer for this question is not from me, but I would say any game. Xbox & Switch are platforms, mostly for gaming, despite the fact there are some apps in there (YouTube, Netflix,...etc.) so whatever your game genre or type is, I'm sure if they like it they won't mind it on their platform. ================================================================================== Q.4: Which Game engine have you used to develop your game? I am using UNITY. Is it good for Xbox or i’ve to consider any other game engine? - Unreal. Any Engine is good for any platform. Don't let the engine be your biggest issue, we're are in 2020, all Engines are great and most of them are cross platform. if you are not so confident about Unity, you can just remember it made Cuphead, Ori franchise, Max & Magic Marker, and many more Xbox exclusives. And if we start thinking about Unity games made for Switch, we will have endless list! Even more than Unreal based titles, as Unity already prove that it is super optimized engine for Nintendo devices since the WiiU and 3ds. ================================================================================== Q.5: Can you please share the list of Hardware that you used for Xbox development and testing? E.g. Does Xbox have their own development kit or we can test our game on any Xbox? Which Xbox you used? - Yes, i used devkits. With that said, i learned that any Xbox One (consumer device) can be turned to a devkit mode. I tested my game on Xbox One S & Xbox one X (the weakest and the Powerful one, so i can grantee the performance). For Nintendo, i can't explain what hardware i did use, but once you are approved you've access to the documentations where you can read about the different hardware types, and then you can based on your use and game type or development type request the hardware that you need. But all in all, for any platform, you need their hardware (aka devkit). And at least one device per platform. ================================================================================== Q.6: What are the main reasons for rejection from Xbox? And what factors do I need to consider while developing my game? - If you mean rejected as a project to be released on the platform, I guess when my game rejected first time, because it hasn't a "Full playable loop". Start, Play, End, Restart if you want. It was a punch of levels, not connected, no UI & lots of Debug menus. Xbox team (or any other platform) they need a very clean and clear vision so they can decide.. ================================================================================== Q.7: What kind of Legal document and other Document Xbox require? This will help me to save time by preparing in advance. - Most of the documents as far as i can remember, they send to you. You don't produce documents, you just read and sign (of course if you find it make sense and nothing against your goals or considerations). Xbox was the least demanding, Nintendo was fine, no magical papers were requested. But Sony for example would require your last fiscal year revenue breakdown and documents to proof that! ================================================================================== Q.8: Do Xbox have their own tools for leaderboard, cloud, ranking & in-app purchases? - Any Xbox player already know, all that called Xbox Live (which is a set of services), and most of the engines does have high level interface to deal with those services. Don't worry :) and there is always documentations and pages to help you, either at Xbox websites or at the engine (Unity at your case) site. For Nintendo it is different, i don't have any online features in my game, because online in Nintendo is treated differently, where any user on Xbox have online access and online features, in Nintendo the online features you purchase as a product (per month, per year,...etc.), so it is common to find many games doesn't have leaderboard or clouds save,...etc. But again, all engines already have the high level interface for those features, regardless you will support them or no. ================================================================================== Q.9: Can you please share the complexities of the Xbox development as you’d mentioned in your message? Like which development steps i can follow to avoid delays and rejections (Any Tips and Tricks) - I was already familiar with the platform[s] (remember I'm already a game engine programmer), but what was new and seemed complex to me was the "rules" of the platform. Those are things you must read about at your first days of developing for the platform, due to NDA i can't talk further about that. But what i meant by the rules it is for example how to save, when to save, for example a platform would give you limit/bandwidth for saving calls per second, where other platform won't care and give you unlimited calls. Or what is the status of a player while playing (online/offline), some platforms won't care, where others would care a lot about that. Can a player change account while playing or not, some platforms would require, where others would not even allow.....etc. those are thing that vary between the different platforms, and they were the reason for any rejection i had (the ignorance of the rules). Because even if your game is already complete and finished before the port, the port to a platform is not just hit "Build", you have to "re-adapt" the game for the platform. ================================================================================== Q.10: What advice would you like to give yourself, if you are starting today as an Xbox Developer? - Don't rush things. And try to "Understand" the reason behind any thing in the platform. If you just adapt the game for the platform rules, you will have lots of complications, because you could make something to fit a rule, but it break with another rule. If you understand perfectly the platform, and the reason behind everything, you will not suffer during development. ================================================================================== Q.11: What are the things you wished you knew when you were starting as an Xbox Developer? - as i said, the platform set of rules. It takes time to know them correctly. ================================================================================== Q.12: Can you please share any other tips and tricks or would like to add any point/Question if i am missing? - just focus on the game more than on what platforms you need to target. If your game is good, solid, bug free, the platform stuff won't take much time. Also some info about how to be recognized by platforms could be changed, I've been Nintendo developer for long time, even before the Switch device announced, and I've been Xbox developer since 2014 i guess, when the ID program was announced. So things might be different, might be easier or might be harder now, not quite sure. ================================================================================== Finally, few more points:
I'll tag him as soon as i get his approval, i wanted to put his name, but yet there is no answer from him.
All questions were duplicates, one version for Xbox and other version for Nintendo Switch, for the sake of making this shorter, i put the Xbox question version only, but each answer is about both.
I wanted to put all those in Audio/Video format, but dunno, it is not my thing, and I'm not good at it.
The game (if you're interested) is Chickens Madness, which is now on Steam, Xbox& Switch. Solo developed in 7 years.

Hey Guardians, Here's a megathread for the upcoming maintenance that will bring us Update 3.0.1 & the Next-Gen-Patch (PS5 & Xbox Series X|S only). All posts about the maintenance & next-gen-patch will be redirected to this thread.
Downtime will begin when this thread is one hour old. Some features of third party apps (like DIM) could be disabled right now.
Game Downtime is 1 HOUR (until DAILY RESET). Maintenance will take another hour after that to complete.
Most of the time the game is (more or lessContacting Destiny servers...) playable during the ongoing Maintenance after the Downtime is over
Patch & Patchnotes should hit at DAILY RESET as well.
Please note that maintenance isn't fully over until one hour after reset, which means third party apps (like DIM, and your beloved DTG_Bot) might not completely work until then!
Next-Gen-Patch
A highlight of this patch is free Next-Gen-Support for PS5 & Xbox Series X|S, for all those lucky enough to snag one. Here is what you can expect (please read this article for all details):

[IMPROVED] Free Elegy Sell Glitch - No Targetting Mode
Final Update: Now patched
UPDATE: Video out now https://youtu.be/10FfMrPJZ5A There is an easier way to do the Elegy Sell Glitch without having to join someone else in a different targeting mode. This is good for Xbox if they don't have friends playing GTA at the time of doing this glitch. It can also be done on PS though. Requirements:
Arena Workshop with Bennys Mechanic
Free Elegy in Arena
RC Bandito
Spawn location somewhere else than ’Last Location’ or ’Arena Workshop’
Steps:
Enter your workshop and stand in front of the Bandito. (Be ready to disconnect)
Press whatever button you use to modify it. Wait 3 seconds.
Disconnect, go back to GTA, accept the error alert then reconnect. (XBOX: Go to settings, network settings - go online/offline) (PS: if you prepared it then double tab to go to network settings)
Once you load in story mode start a new invite only.
Once loaded into online, go to your workshop.
Once inside, go to your elegy and modify it. You should notice that it does not go into the workshop.
Sell the vehicle and immediately after selling spam right d-pad (the one you use to modify the car) until you get a white loading circle in the bottom right. Then wait 10+ seconds.
After waiting, press A/Cross, you should hear the sound in the background of you modifying it.
Wait 10+ seconds.
For Xbox, press B then B again. For PS, Circle then Circle
Press A/Cross.
After a couple of seconds you should load in and have the money!
Notes:
If you messed up with controls will have to restart GTA.
Remember to wait for those seconds that I told you in this post. If you don't it will glitch out
While this is harder to hit sometimes, you don't have to join someone else.
Also the title is spelt wrong but I can't change it
If you keep joining into workshop try this: Set spawn location to last location. Run far away from Arena and go into creator. Go back into online and start from step 1

C.A.M.P. Shelters
Head underground with C.A.M.P. Shelters, which are instanced interiors that you can add to your C.A.M.P. and customize to flex your creativity as a builder.
We’ve added a brief new quest, called “Home Expansion,” to the game that all players must complete in order to gain access to the C.A.M.P. Shelters feature.
Begin the “Home Expansion” quest by reading a Shelters Claim Center poster in Train Stations throughout Appalachia. Or, find your way inside the Claim Center by locating a key in the northern Forest region.
With today’s update, we’re introducing our first three C.A.M.P. Shelters, which each offer a different sized space to build in, and feature their own layouts and styles.
Vault Utility Room: After completing the “Home Expansion” quest, all players can claim the Vault Utility Room for free in the Atomic Shop.
Please Note:Since we decided to release Steel Dawn early, only the Vault Utility Room will be available on November 24. The Vault Lobby and Atrium described below will arrive at a later date.
Vault Lobby: Fallout 1st Members can claim this medium-sized Shelter this month in the Fallout 1st section of the Atomic Shop. In the future, it will be available to all players for Atoms.
Vault Atrium: The largest of our first three Shelters, the Vault Atrium can be purchased using Atoms.
Once you’ve claimed a C.A.M.P. Shelter, you can access its interior by building the associated Shelter Entrance in your C.A.M.P.
Your C.A.M.P. can contain one of each type of Shelter that you own, and you can build multiple Entrances to the same Shelter.
Find your available Shelter Entrances by scrolling to the new “Shelters” category in the C.A.M.P. Build Menu. Select the Entrance you’d like to build, and then head inside.
Every Shelter has its own build budget that is separate from your main C.A.M.P., as well as any other Shelters you’ve built.
Your Shelter interiors will be saved as you build, so you won’t lose anything if you relocate your C.A.M.P., move your Shelter Entrances, or if your Entrances get destroyed.
Since they are instanced, Shelters are able to offer sizable build budgets. Currently, each of our first three Shelters have larger budgets than your main C.A.M.P.
We’ve relaxed certain build restrictions inside Shelters by introducing a “Toggle Snapping” option that you can turn off to place objects anywhere you’d like, or turn on to snap objects to each other or the build grid.
Additionally, use the Shelter Control Panel inside of each C.A.M.P. Shelter to quickly scrap or repair everything you’ve built so far.
A common suggestion we’ve received from Atomic Shop aficionados has been to reduce bundle prices for players who already own some of the items they contain. With today’s update, we’ve added pricing tech that will do just that.
Going forward, if you own one or more items in a bundle, its Atom price will automatically reduce accordingly. The more items you already have, the lower your adjusted price.
Bundles that have been adjusted this way will now display your price vs. the original price.
Items you already own will be marked in each Bundle’s description.
We’ve also added a new “Bundles” category to the left-hand side of the Atomic Shop menu so that you can more easily find all of the bundles that are currently available without having to hunt for them on multiple pages.
Additional Atomic Shop Updates
Backpack Flair: Add even more personality to your characters with Backpack Flair! We’ve added two Backpack Flair slots to the modify menu for Backpacks that you can use to add cosmetic Flair.
Going forward, keep an eye out for different Backpack Flairs that you can unlock in the Atomic Shop, claim from Season Scoreboards, or earn as rewards in-game.
Backpacks you crafted prior to the Steel Dawn Update will not have Backpack Flair mod slots. Craft new versions of your Backpacks to cause the Backpack Flair slots to appear.
Please Note: While the Backpack Flair system is live as of November 24, Flairs themselves are not yet available. We will let you know as soon as we add them on a later date.
Fallout 1st: Items that have special discounts for Fallout 1st Members will now appear in the Fallout 1st section of the Atomic Shop while they are on sale.
These items will now also display a Fallout 1st icon, both in the Fallout 1st category and in their appropriate sub categories in the Atomic Shop.
Lunchboxes: In addition to earning Lunchbox rewards from a Season Scoreboard, or buying them with Gold Bullion in-game, you can now purchase them for Atoms in the Atomic Shop.
Lunchbox buff descriptions and the chances to receive each buff have been added to the “Lunchboxes” section of the Help Menu.
Daily Ops
New Items: We’ve added a number of new rare rewards that you can earn by completing Daily Ops. They include Plans to craft Brotherhood Recon Armor, the Crusader Pistol, Plasma Cutter, and Hellstorm Missile Launcher.
Plan Rewards: Say goodbye to duplicate Plans! Non-tradeable item Plans that can be awarded by Daily Ops, like the War Glaive Plan, will no longer continue to drop as rewards after you’ve learned them.
Mutations and Enemies: To help keep Daily Ops feeling fresh each day, we’ve made an adjustment to prevent the same enemy mutation and faction from appearing two days in a row.
Hunger and Thirst Updates
We agree with feedback from the community that our hunger and thirst mechanics could feel a little too punishing. We’ve decided to remove the negative effects when you’re hungry or thirsty, and buff up the bonuses you receive when you’re fed and hydrated.
Going forward, your Action Points, Health, and Disease Resists will no longer be negatively affected when you haven’t had anything to eat or drink recently.
Instead, you will receive buffs that increase depending on how full your hunger and thirst meters are:
Hunger: Gain +15 Max HP when partially fed, up to +35 Max HP, +35% Disease Resist, and +1 Strength when fully fed.
Thirst: Gain +15% AP Regeneration when partially hydrated, up to +35% AP Regeneration, +35% Disease Resist, and +1 Endurance when fully hydrated.

Source: https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/49751 This week at Bungie, we’re beginning our descent to Europa. Every release, we have a long conversation about what we should show players leading up to launch, and what we should leave for players to discover. We want to build up the sense of wonder as a new Season or expansion makes its approach without spoiling everything that’s coming. With just a week to go before launch, we’ve almost reached our destination. Video Link Our Beyond Light Launch Trailer went live last week. A ViDoc, exploring Beyond Light and Season of the Hunt, is available for your viewing pleasure. We’ve released our Season of the Hunt calendar to help you plan out your days for the next few months. Image Linkimgur All that’s left is a quick preview of patch notes and a maintenance timeline. After that, we leave the rest to you.
It’s All in the Patch
Over the last few weeks, our goals have been to set expectations. We’ve covered the Destiny Content Vault, upcoming Sandbox changes, Gambit tuning, and more. These updates aren’t mind-blowing or overly game changing, they’re just nice little morsels to chew on in the final days leading up to launch. In any case, we hope you like the following quality of life appetizers before your meal is delivered on November 10. Archives Beginning November 10, two new kiosks will be available in the Tower. First up, the Quest Archive will be found next to the Postmaster. Our hope is that this removes some of the confusion when trying to track down the odd quest that you previously discarded. Additionally, this will be the place for any veteran players to pick up the New Light Quest on November 10, if they have a strong desire to experience new player tutorials and the (re-)introduction to the Cosmodrome. Image Linkimgur Next up, the Monument to Lost Lights Exotic Archive will be found by the Vault. Here, players may acquire various Exotics and Legendary Pinnacle/Pursuit weapons that were once available through now-retired quests. As many of these Exotics were tied to lengthy quests or difficult objectives, we wanted to make sure their prices reflected those previous efforts. Players will need an amount of Glimmer, destination materials, masterworking materials, and an Exotic Cipher or Ascendant Shard in order to purchase the Exotic or Legendary which they desire. We’re also introducing a currency, Spoils of Conquest, which can only be acquired when completing raids. This currency will be required for Exotics previously tied to Vaulted raids. Image Linkimgur In the past, Exotic Ciphers were very limited in nature. While you can expect one to be available as part of the Season Pass, Xur will also offer a quest to earn one Exotic Cipher on a weekly cadence. Now, let's move on to some traditional patch notes... Crucible
Trials of Osiris
Trials of Osiris Power level requirement increased to 1210.
Added ADEPT weapons and weapon mods to Flawless chest rewards.
Additional information here (link TWAB).
Maps
Added physics blockers to some out-of-bounds areas on Altar of Flame.
Added physics blockers to some out-of-bounds areas on Exodus Blue.
Added physics blockers to some out-of-bounds areas on Cauldron.

Added toggle functionality to the character screen, allowing the player to make a choice between Light and Dark subclasses.
Character screen visuals updated depending on player choice between Light and Dark.
Character Creation
Changed selection from "Male" & "Female" to "Masculine" & "Feminine."
Guardian head and hair models have been replaced with improved versions.
Several color swatches have been changed to better represent the applied color.
Player’s previous head selections are still used.
Misc
Fixed a bug that prevented online friends from showing up in the roster on Stadia for players with more than 100 friends.
Fixed a bug that occasionally prevented players from earning progress on bounties when joining an activity in progress.
This most notably impacted Iron Banner bounties and could cause players to have their Artifact Power bonus enabled during Iron Banner matches.
A few Sandbox changes that we missed in our Sandbox preview
Traveler's Chosen
Reduced muzzle flash intensity.
Point of the Stag
Increased Point of the Stag's Max Power Level to 1310.
Divinity
Fixed a bug that prevented some weapons from dealing precision damage to the Divinity cage (e.g. Eriana's Vow).
Hunter Dodge
Increased Hunter's Dodge cooldown by a few seconds.
(E.g. Tier 4, old cooldown: 22 sec. New cooldown: 26 sec.)
Anti-Champion Mods
Anti-barrier rounds will now penetrate Taken Phalanx shields.
All Anti-Champion mods have been shifted to armor, rather than taking a weapon mod slot.
Orbs of Light have been changed to Orbs of Power as they can now be consumed by Light and Dark subclasses.
Before we end our patch note preview, we do want to call out the collectors among you who have been talking about the impending removal of Expired Ramen Coupons from your inventories. We know this one stings a bit. It’s a byproduct of us cleaning up inventory systems and doing general maintenance. We want to a provide a parting gift before these coupons are tossed into the bin. These coupons can’t be redeemed for spicy ramen, but they can decorate your desktop for as long as you desire. [4k – SPICY RAMEN COUPONS] Image Linkimgur …and there we have it. Full patch notes will be released on Tuesday around launch time. Stay tuned!

Image Linkimgur Before we kick off a new year of Destiny content, we have a final round for Movie of the Week. 2020 isn’t over yet, but we’ve had a blast watching community-created content throughout Shadowkeep and its associated Seasons. Many thanks to those who’ve submitted their footage (and art!), as it’s kept us sane week over week. Here are your final Movie of the Week selections before Beyond Light brings some Darkness to the table. Movie of the Week: Thanks, Taken! Video Link Movie of the Week: Festival of the Lost, Parting Shot Video Link Movie of the Week: Give ‘em a hand Video Link Movie of the Week: SEVENTH COLUMN!!! ...AND ANOTHER ONE! Video Link Movie of the Week: It isn’t over until it’s over
Next week, we’ll have a new companion section for Movie of the Week. We felt it important to give the same spotlight to the artists of our community as we’ve been giving to those who create fun videos. To throw your hat in the ring, submit your content to the Community Creations portal on Bungie.net. If you also post your content to social media, tag it with #DestinyMOTW or #DestinyArt. We’ll snag a few winners each week and grant them some fancy new emblems. We’ve been here a few times. What was once months became weeks. Weeks have become mere days. Five more sleeps stand between you and Beyond Light. Well, that’s if you can even sleep the night before launch. I know I probably won’t. Many of you have been on this journey with us from the start. In the last year, numerous Guardians have begun their journey through New Light. No matter how long you’ve been a Guardian, we can’t thank you enough for playing. Stay hydrated. Be healthy. Treat yourself well. We’re almost there. See you starside. -dmg04
I(14m) recently got the new xbox and as you've heard it is in high demand and a lot of people wanted one for Christmas. People: me, my mom, 2 aunts, 2 uncles, 5 cousins. So this year has been rough on everyone. My mom lost her job for a bit, my aunts and uncles either lost their job and still are looking or lost it for a while and barely got it back. I lived in a small apartment where i shared my room with 3 siblings and my parents had their own room but they arent part of this. It all started when i buy myself an xbox with my own money. When it gets here i actually was moving since my grandparents let us stay at their house until my mom got a job since she lost it at the time. Since i was moving i didnt use it. Then a month later my mom actually got us a better apartment that let me share a room with only one of my siblings. Once we move in i finally use my xbox for the first time a couple days ago because i forgot i had it but found space for it. My sister doesnt play video games because she got her own switch last year so she barely used the tv in our room which i owned. Fast forward to Christmas where i have a cousins coming over with my aunts. Once they come inside they go everywhere even in my room and once they saw my xbox they were like "can we play the xbox, i havent used one" i said fine but only minecraft because again i just started using it. They used it for 3 hours but had to go eat and once they ate they asked my mom what they got for Christmas. She gave each of my cousins $20 because she didnt know what they wanted or didnt have the money. 2 of them got me some clothes which i liked very much since i didnt get any new ones this year. The other ones gave me $25 which i was really expecting nothing because i knew they've had a very rough year. Then once everyone gets their presents we just play card games and board games. i decided i was going to get some sleep they said ok and i said my goodbyes. Later i get woken up by my cousins saying that i have their Christmas present. By this time my aunts offer and say"uh no i need it more than you" i was just like shocked because i was still tired and they were very demanding especially when my cousins started asking "can we go home now i want to play the new xbox" i said no its not for sale and to get out of my room. Then they started calling me ungreatful for not letting them have it because they've had a rough year and my cousins just want it. When my mom came my aunts explained first then i told her my side and my uncles tell the truth and say that its mine and i should keep it since they kniw i bought it with my own money. My mom tells them to leave and they were just whining. I woke up and my mom apologized and my phone was blown up by my cousins and aunts saying im an AH. AITA? Edit:im going to go offline for a bit while i slowly go through this because i am a bit traumatized from all the drama especially since it was all from family which just makes me scared since they have keys but my mom is working on everything Edit 2: im going low contact with my family that was involved, my mom has also been helping me go through this, i have decided to hide my xbox, and for those wondering why my uncles and aunts have keys its because they would babysit my siblings incase if me or my mom werent here, but she changed the locks and is seeing if she can get a house with mortage to set up cameras. I am feeling a bit better but still very traumatized from the incident. Thank you for all your supporting comments

Burnt (Passive): Enemies hit by explosives are revealed for a short duration.
MIRV Launcher inner radius increased from 2.75m to 3.0m.

Increased ability activation sound volume and range.
Increased ability expiring sound volume and range.
Gl1tch
Fixed an issue that was preventing Gl1tch from hacking the APS device successfully
Phantom
The Nano Smoke ability will now block Fixer’s Thermal Vision.

MX-R (Dahlia, Trench)
Fixed an issue where the Base and Level 1 Upgrade had the incorrect range.
MLX Maw (Anvil)
Slightly reduced the maximum Bloom.
LMP-X (Gl1tch)
Increased Falloff Damage
LR15 (Phantom)
Fixed an issue where her un-scope speed was inconsistent at different upgrades

Tyr (Fixer)
Fixed an issue where this rifle didn’t have constant damage falloff.
GADGETS
APS (Trench and Anvil)
Level 1 upgrade now increases the max count from 1 to 2.
Level 2 now increases durability and detection radius.
C4 (Talon, Anvil, and Fixer)

Tripmine (Saint)
Damage was increased from 100 to 125.
Perks

Players with cloaked now show up “cold” when Fixer uses Thermal Vision.
Nimble Hands

Maps
The team has spent time extensively reviewing The Arena map for performance and crashing issues. We believe this map should provide a better experience and it will be available with this update. Made various bug fixes, collision adjustments, and object fixes to the following maps:
High Castle
Lockdown
Factory
Skyfell
Favelas
Canals
Added spawns on the Defender side of the map to the Warship.
Fix an issue where the camera could see through various walls.
Reply with your feedback and upvote comments that you agree with. I will compile a list of the best feedback for 2K. You can see the final list in this post or in our archive when the status says “COMPLETE”.
High-effort and easy-to-understand feedback is prioritized. For bug reports, screenshots/videos and instructions to recreate are required. For suggestions, provide thoughtful reasoning.
Specify which game mode your feedback is for and categorize it as a bug or suggestion.
To help with readability and voting, put one item per comment instead of an entire list. Please check the archive first to avoid repeating others.
Example 1:
Gameplay, Bug Players have cheerleader animations while standing around. (Video)
Example 2:
MyTEAM, Suggestion The difficulty sliders are not consistent across modes. The same difficulty on Domination vs. Challenges vs. TT Offline feels drastically different. A side-effect is that players cannot break even playing TT Offline in terms of MT spent on contracts vs. MT earned from playing.
Final List (Status: COMPLETE)
General
Bug: Many stats the announcers talk about in-game or show up in overlays are wrong. (Picture: Ex. LeBron won his 4th Finals MVP last season, not 2nd)
Bug: After a hotfix update around Christmas, many players on Xbox Series X are seeing a black diagonal line across their screen in at least MyTEAM and MyNBA modes. (Picture)
Play Now/Quick Play
Bug: Repeating for visibility, these issues have made tournaments extremely complicated -- When setting up a Play Now With Friends quick game..
Only the host can choose teams. The invited player is stuck looking at the match options.
"Randomize" option disappears
The home/away team sometimes swaps after you start the game, so players are not controlling the teams they picked.
Bug: Repeating for visibility -- When setting matchups and lineups before PNO games, the players list will sometimes shift around. Sometimes this lasts a few seconds, sometimes this never stops. (Video)
Bug: Repeating for visibility -- When setting matchups before PNO games, the matchup you select often changes the one above it. (Video)
Bug(?): Can't verify, but two people have reported that wins/losses from Play Now With Friends games are counting towards their online record.
Gameplay
Suggestion: Tune the frequency of charges. The animation and foul call seems to trigger too frequently.
Art/Likeness
Bug: Knicks 2021 City uniform shouldn't have an orange trim. (Pictures: Real-Life vs. Game)
Suggestion: Repeating for visibility -- Some colors look unnatural. You can see the reds on the Cavs and yellows on the Lakers jersey and court are very washed out. (Pictures: Lakers 1, Lakers 2, Cavs)
Suggestion: By default, the Lakers should always wear black accessories with the Mamba jerseys. Users have to edit this manually every time.
Suggestion: Update the Lakers court for the 2020-21 season with a new star. (Picture)
Suggestion: Update the bench wardrobe to match the 2020-21 season.
Suggestion: Update the wardrobe for coaches since most no longer wear formal suits.
Suggestion: Update team colors for the Atlanta Hawks, they no longer have neon in their palette.
MyPLAYER (Builds/Badges)
Bug: Post-game recap badge progress bars have visual glitches that cause players to think they are not earning badge progress.
Scenario 1 (good/normal): Progress bar shows the original amount, animates the current game's progress being added, and ends with the new final amount.
Scenario 2 (bad): Progress bar skips the animation, immediately shows the new final amount, but the audio effect of the progress bar animation is still played.
Scenario 3 (bad): Progress bar in the post-game recap does not match the progress bar in the Badge Upgrades screen.
These scenarios can sometimes even happen at the same time, making things more confusing. (Video: Finishing/Shooting/Playmaking progress bars move normally, but Def/Reb progress bar skips the animation.)
Bug: Some players get negative badge progress. This is not a visual glitch and players have to earn their way out of the negatives. (Picture)
Bug: Some PS5 players are having their MyPLAYER Appearance reset if they use their console's Rest Mode.
Suggestion: Allow players to save multiple face scans and switch between them with all the other faces under MyPLAYER Appearance.
Suggestion: Display each save's overall rating on the MyCAREER main menu page. It's hard to distinguish between two save files that are the same build.
MyCAREER — NBA Career
Bug: Many players are not getting any audio during team practices. Audio works fine everywhere else (NBA games, City, etc)
Bug: Repeating for visibility -- Instant replays and Player of the Game are no longer triggering, even if enabled in the settings. Even the sponsored ones like Mobil 1 block never play.
Bug: Some players are seeing the Minutes Played stat display the wrong number in any box score for NBA games they played in. (Picture)
Bug: Scene Subtitles setting resets to "off" on PS5 every time after restarting the game.
Suggestion: Allow players to pick jerseys and accessories for both teams once that ability is unlocked.
Suggestion: Mark goals as completed during games, especially the "assist X player on a basket" goals.
Suggestion: Once all endorsement incentives in a tier are completed, show "None Available" instead of "None Active".
Suggestion: If you win a coach's challenge, you should get back the teammate grade you lost for the foul.
MyCAREER — City/Pro-Am/Rec
Bug: Non-Garage Hoops courts in the City don't show shot feedback if you are shooting around by yourself.
Suggestion: Make the AI in Rep have better tendencies on defense, it's too easy to green shots over them. Increasing the AI to 85 OVR was a good idea, but their playstyle seems to be the bigger issue.
Suggestion: Allow players to earn Rep in Pro-Am, the mode lacks an incentive for players right now.
2K22: Instead of filling in Rec games with generic AI players, fill games in with AI NBA players. Doesn't have to be superstars, it can be below league average players.
Bug (CURRENT-GEN): NBA Store in the Neighborhood often displays an error message. (Picture)
Workaround: Go to Swags and then go back to the NBA Store and it will work.
MyTEAM
Bug(?): Add quick substitution options (starters, bench, 3pt, quick, etc) back in during gameplay.
Suggestion: Repeating for visibility -- Holding Y/Triangle no longer makes your teammate cut to the basket for a lead pass. Possible to add this back? MyTeam players liked this to help complete Challenges.
Suggestion: Show progress bars during games to reflect agendas and Evos that players are currently tracking.
Suggestion: When editing a lineup, it would be nice to be able to click one button to start moving a card. Having to select the card and then scroll to the move option feels onerous and unnecessary when there are unused buttons in that menu.
2K22: Adapt the advanced minutes/rotations options from MyNBA where you have full control over when players are substituted in. This would be helpful with Dynamic Duos.
MyNBA
2K22: “Add Jersey” feature for players to download singular jersey designs without having to completely redesign the team.
