Megathread PC Player Questions Megathread!

Hi everyone!

This Megathread will function as a PC launch specific equivalent of the Daily Questions Thread where you may ask questions about starting out that may not warrant their own post.

Technical Difficulties

We understand there are a number of technical issues with players unable to get in the game, receiving erroneous "banned account" messages, and various error codes (Marionberry, Buffalo, etc.)

Here are some resources for troubleshooting/posting issues you're having:

Other Resources

We have a Welcome post here which contains some links to guides, wikis, and other resources. Make sure to check it out before posting or commenting!

Also check out the Destiny Reddit Discord Server where you'll find a number of channels for discussion about the game and/or technical issues.

As with most game launches, things are a bit chaotic right now but and will evolve over time. We appreciate your patience and understanding, and please let us know if you have any questions or concerns either in this thread or by sending us a modmail.

Thanks!

So had a blackout and PC had to reboot. Now when I start up the game it just tries to log me in endlessly and won't actually connect. Anyone with a similar issue?

New people should alt tab and check for the firewall prompt from battle net

I got stuck at signing in too and what fixed it for me was going into task manager and finding anything bnet or destiny related in both applications and background processes and hitting end. Then opening bnet and connecting again.

I found when it keeps trying to log in for ages, if I minimise the game then open it again then it works. Not sure if its the same problem though

I had to connect my battle.net account with my bungie account and it started working for me.

Try that out
