Overview
- Patch 1.0.5.2, which Bungie released Tuesday, removes a slide-cancel trick in the extraction shooter that let players keep speed by pulling equipment or using the Thief Grapple during a slide.
- Bungie says fast repositioning must spend a charge, build heat, or add risk, and it warned that it will treat future movement exploits the same way.
- The update boosts loot across Outpost’s Pinwheel and reopens its Destroyed Wing entrance, adjusts the Tox Warden arena in Outpost, fixes a fall-through spot in Cryo Archive, and improves Armory performance plus contract, UI, text chat, and localization issues.
- The team is still running live experiments, with the Duos matchmaking test moving to Outpost on Wednesday at 10 a.m. PT.
- Players should expect hotter fights around Pinwheel with better rewards, and early reports suggest larger strongbox payouts there, though Bungie has not confirmed those specifics.
