With the release of Destiny 2: Warmind and patch 1.2.0, a few annoying issues have popped up.

Yesterday, Bungie outlined a workaround for the Heroic strike bug, which prevents the game from launching players into a Heroic strike despite them picking the right playlist.

In this week's blog update, the developer published an expanded list of all problems it's currently tracking.

One of the biggest issues is that Crucible fireteam matchmaking changes introduced with update 1.2.0, many of which players were looking forward to, were instantly disabled. The other big one is that Bungie has taken away access to Rat King as a result of a bug, meaning no one can use it.

Clan XP rewards, which should reward players with Powerful Gear, has instead been giving out engrams capped at 340 Power.

A fix for the Rat King issue and a few others will be released in hotfix 1.2.0.2, due for release Tuesday, May 15. For the full list of problems, see below.

-Crucible Fireteam Matchmaking
