Destiny 2 gamers storm servers with Weasel errors, over 100,000 Steam players for final update

A bunch of Guardians trying to make their own fate have banded together to send a message: Destiny 2 is ending, and we are not happy about it. Destiny 2’s final live-service update, Monument of Triumph, launched around a half hour ago and the game lists over 110,000 players. So many players logged on at the update’s launch, in fact, that it’s causing Weasel errors abound.

Many are now currently unable to connect, putting a bittersweet damper on the mood. But for players hoping to send a message, this one works, especially if the Weasel errors are due to the mass influx of gamers that Destiny 2 hasn’t seen since the launch of The Edge of Fate expansion last June. I would expect the numbers to climb throughout the day as more players are able to connect, especially tonight. “We are investigating a rise in login and error codes affecting all Bungie games, Bungie.net, and the Destiny 2 API,” Bungie said on Twitter/X. “While these errors appear to be dropping, we will continue to monitor the issue. Players may be placed in a queue when logging in again. More information will be provided when available.” Funnily enough, SteamDB also went down shortly after I took the above screenshot. It seems like many are interested in just how many Guardians are playing the update’s launch. I fear it’s too late for it to save the franchise, but I admire the dedication of Guardians everywhere trying to show that they still love the game. While waiting for the servers to stabilize, players can peruse the update patch notes that are tens of thousands of words long, highlighting a massive list of quality-of-life updates, including all sorts of buildcrafting, the return of the Director navigation map, and a lot more.
