Bungie also confirmed that update 1.1.1 will still be implemented this month. The patch will introduce compulsory match-making to weekly heroic strikes, removing the ability for players to solo them. This will affect all levels of the Weekly Heroic, though Nightfall will remain unaffected. Matchmaking has yet to be implemented for Raids, which Bungie says are more reliant on “groups of communicative players who are invested in each other.”
Other changes which are part of patch 1.1.1 include a fix to the heavy ammo bug, balance fixes to weapons, and the ability to view a player’s in-game reputation with faction vendors.
Destiny’s next downloadable content pack will launch sometime in the second quarter of this year, and is called House of Wolves. Bungie has said it won’t make the same mistakes in this DLC, with plans to improve the progression system.
