14 DAY TRIAL // With the server maintenance of yesterday in the rear view mirror, the team at Bungie in charge of Destiny is getting back to its regular program of events for the community, which means that a new hunt is being prepared, targeting members of clan PRIMEGUARD.
The Bungie Bounty will take place from 6 to 8 PM Pacific Time today on the PlayStation 4 and all those who are interested in taking part will need to own The Dark Below expansion and be ready to engage in Clash.
The official announcement adds, "Enter matchmaking. If the fates choose you to fight them, you'll have a chance to win an emblem that we reserve for the bounty hunters. To match skills and wits with our special guests, two of our own prime Guardians will be on their team."
The list of gamers that members of the community need to take down in order to get a special emblem include: Dattowatto, leopardsteaIth, Nostradomass, Hycubis, and pointcow and RogueProphet, who are both Player versus Player mechanic testers at Bungie.
The entire Bungie Bounty event is also streamed on the Twitch channel of the company for those who cannot actually take part.
Destiny is getting ready for a big update
The developers needed to issue a few Twitter messages yesterday to make sure that players did not believe the downtime was related to the deployment of the much-awaited update 1.1.1 for the social shooter.
But the company still maintains that it will deploy it on all platforms before the end of the month, which gives them three more days to make sure that all its changes are tested and the overall game experience is improved.
The main order of business is to deal with the heavy weapon ammo issue and there are also changes made to the user interface of the game and the strikes will use matchmaking in order to make sure that more players are engaged with them.
Destiny is also preparing for the launch of the House of Wolves expansion, which will introduce a new end-game raid, more strikes to play through and a variety of powerful gear and weapons for the Guardians to use once they reach a new level cap.
Release is expected to take place during the second financial quarter of this year, according to the developers.
