Destiny Update Reveal Interesting Details abut Trials of Osiris

Bungie’s Latest Destiny update breaks down how many players had a perfect scorecard in the Trials of Osiris

Last weekend Destiny players got their first crack at the new PvP event the Trials of Osiris that arrived with the House of Wolves expansion. Teams of 3 went head to head in intense matches to try earning their chance at amazing loot. Turnout for the event according to the latest Destiny update was greater than anything Bungie could have hoped for with 3.8 million matches taking place Friday through Tuesday. An unbelievable number for a PvP event of any game that showed how determined players were for that loot.

Interest in Trials of Osiris seemed to have shot up after video popped up showing what teams with a perfect score card received. Access to a hidden area on Mercury with a special loot chest that everyone wanted to get their hands on. The question was how many players were able to say they had a perfect score card, 9 wins/0 losses, when the dust settled? Bungie’s latest Destiny update broke it down, showing that only 299,001 players racked up a perfect score. Of those 299,001 players Bungie says 188,442 graced the halls of the Lighthouse, the special area unlocked with a perfect score card.

Meaning that nearly two-thirds of the players who came out with a perfect score went onto reap the rewards the Lighthouse had to offer them. An extremely small percentage of the total number of players who joined the Trials of Osiris event. The more surprising number to come out of the Trials event was the number of kills the Destiny update reported. Over the weekend players racked up 118, 627, 301 kills in their run at the ultimate prize. Proving the PvP event to be one of Destiny’s greatest success stories yet.

Fantastic as the event success was not everything went off without a hitch this weekend. In the Destiny update Bungie says that despite their new connection recovery system a large number of players still encountered problems. Losing their connection and being forced out of the event, although the developer promised their looking into the problem. First however they are going to deal with a much bigger problem that cropped up during the Trials of Osiris, cheating.

Bungie reports that some teams gained their perfect scorecard by disabling the enemy teams internet connection forcing them out of the match which counts as a forfeit. Anytime a team forfeits a match in Destiny their opponents are granted the win so these cheating teams were able to rack up nine wins without ever having to fight. Bungie says they were watching the event closely and are now going to deal with the most “egregious cheaters” who will receive a temporary or even permanent ban from the game.

Finally the Destiny update provided heat maps from last weeks Trials to show which area of the maps were fought over the hardest and where snipers liked to hide out. Unfortuantely the PvP team isn’t planning to reveal any details about the next set of Trials maps until the event starts on Friday. So players who like to strategize will simply have to wait.

Helldivers 2 proved to be a surprising success, highlighting the unpredictable nature of the gaming industry. As per Circana analyst Mat Piscatella, it currently ranks as Sony’s seventh highest grossing game in the United States to date, trailing behind a trio of Spider-Man titles, a couple of God of War games, and Ghost of Tsushima. It’s only been on the market for less than three months and is not even being sold at full price.

According to Piscatella, a significant factor contributing to the game’s success is its release on PC. He mentioned that, based on Circana’s Player Engagement Tracker, the game has consistently ranked first in terms of active users on Steam in the US since its launch, including April. The release of Helldivers 2 on both PlayStation and PC has been an extraordinary triumph.

He stated that Helldivers 2 has already become the seventh highest-grossing Sony-published game in history. Without a PC, it would not currently be considered one of the top 20 games. While I’m emphasizing the success of the PC SKU, it’s important to note that I’m not disregarding the success of the PlayStation SKU. I just wanted to clarify that. This launch has proven to be incredibly successful.

Prior to the release of Helldivers 2, Sony made it clear that they would be launching their live service-style titles simultaneously on both the PS5 and PC. The success of this approach will undoubtedly strengthen their strategic vision. It will be intriguing to witness if the company reveals official sales figures in the near future, as the title appears to be one of the platform holder’s most successful sellers to date.

Shift Up, the Korean developer, seems to be reconsidering its contentious alterations to the Stellar Blade outfit. In a message to fans, they have urged everyone to stay tuned for updates and expressed gratitude for the passionate feedback from players. For those who may not be aware, a petition gained significant attention over the weekend when gamers discovered changes made to a few of the game’s costumes through a day-one patch.

The launch day update includes a fantastic New Game + mode, but some players were disappointed by the changes made to protagonist Eve’s outfit. These alterations sparked debates about censorship. Director Hyung-Tae Kim later clarified that this was the studio’s original vision, but he acknowledged that it may require further persuasion to win over users. Internal discussions were also underway to address any concerns.

There is no definitive confirmation regarding the reversal of the outfits, but considering the language used in the statement and the widespread controversy surrounding the alterations, it is highly likely that a future patch will restore the original costumes.

Unfortunately, Stellar Blade will not be available on PC, at least not initially. Currently, the game is only available on PlayStation 5 starting on April 26, 2024.

Regrettably, it appears that there is no indication of a potential PC release for Stellar Blade in the future. In most cases, trailers for PlayStation timed-exclusive titles conclude with a disclaimer that specifies the duration of their exclusivity.

In the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth launch trailer, it is explicitly stated that the game will only be accessible on other platforms starting on May 29, 2024.

Regrettably, when it comes to the stellar blade, there is no indication of such.

It’s important to note that Sony Entertainment Interactive published Stellar Blade, unlike Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. This means that the chances of it being released on PC or other platforms in the near future are even slimmer.

However, it is worth noting that there is a chance the game might be released on PC in the future, given PlayStation’s track record of bringing their exclusive titles to the platform. However, it could be a while before this comes to fruition.
