Friday, October 10 | Final Verdict
Current State of Service: Good
Summary: Server performance has been stable. Some users experiencing network issues.
Destiny's launch month has been a stable one, with no major service outages or severe issues. Bungie has released several updates to the game, in some cases adding features and in others fixing bugs. A handful of limited, in-game events have also been cycled in an out of Destiny.
Joystiq staff have encountered no serious problems throughout the first month of Destiny's availability. Bungie notes that it is still working to resolve network errors affecting certain users, and some can be rectified by making home network adjustments. The most prolific error code is "Zebra," which signifies an issue that Bungie considers to be a high priority. These problems don't appear to be widespread, and for our part, Joystiq has received very few reports from readers.
To that end, Destiny's overall State of Service is Good. Our time with the game has been essentially problem-free, and Bungie is actively providing updates and improvements on a regular basis.Service News
