Upcoming Destiny patch to fix exploits

4.4
A new Destiny patch is due out on January 13th, which is to fix many exploits that players have found. One of the many exploits getting patched is the "LAN exploit" in which players used to defeat the boss Crota. Also included in the new patch is an increase to Vault of Glass weapon levels.

Check out the list of full patch notes:

Crota's End - Updates
The existing Pit treasure chest reward moved to killing Ir Yut, the Deathsinger. She has a chance to drop Exotic weapons and armor, class pieces, and Radiant materials.
The Pit treasure chest will now contain Radiant Materials.

Pit Encounter
Removed the physics impulse caused by exploding lanterns.

Bridge Encounter
Players will now be required to cross the bridge in order to complete the bridge encounter.
Players will now be required to wait for the bridge to be completed prior to crossing with the sword.

Deathsinger Encounter
Fixed a rare case where the Shriekers would not spawn, preventing players from reaching the Deathsinger.

Crota Encounter
Two Swordbearers will no longer spawn at the same time at the outset of the encounter.
Crota will now recover from his kneeling state after a player quits.
Fixed a bug that allowed players to remove the "Presence of Crota" using a Radiance Warlock's Fireborn ability.
Fixed a bug that made the Oversoul appear destroyed to some players in a Fireteam when it was actually still active.

Vault of Glass - Updates
Exotic weapon drops in the Vault of Glass are now Level 32.

Getting Swole in the Crucible
The Raid crew wasn't the only team readying tweaks heading into and out of the holiday season. Our Crucible designers have a few things in the works to add some spice to the early goings of 2015.

Asylum, The Anomaly, and The Burning Shrine maps will be added to existing Clash and Control playlist rotation.
Iron Banner will return, with updated rewards, running from January 13th through January 19th.

-Skittle Nice to see that some companies are fixing glitches and bugs.


Most try, but only make it worse.


I've never heard anything so true, they always just make it worse, very rarely make anything better.


It's only because we are used to the glitches and bugs that it's almost normal for example on call of duty games when they nerf guns everyone hates it because they are used to the way it is used.


And when they nerf said gun, they buff a different gun. Than that is OP, etc.

Hopefully they don't just make it worse, that would be horrible

It's nice that they are patching exploits, maybe they need to patch them quicker though.
