How to Check the Destiny 2 Server Status

In Destiny 2 you will be given the responsibility to protect humanity from various alien races. You will find yourself up against not only these aliens, but also other players. The Destiny 2 servers have a pretty high capacity to hold all of the players, most of the time.

Unfortunately, sometimes your mission to save humanity can get interrupted when the servers act up. This can be quite frustrating but luckily there's a way you can check to see if the servers are down or if it's actually on your end.

Players grow in frustration when the Destiny 2 servers go down unexpectedly.

The Destiny 2 servers occasionally go down but Bungie will be sure to update players as to the status. /

If you're getting the dreaded error when you try to log on, have no access to your character, or the Tower, then chances are the servers are down. Before you begin blaming your own network and start troubleshooting on your end, check with Bungie. Thankfully, Bungie tries their best to keep players up to date with any maintenance or technical difficulties.

These server errors have been occurring even before the Honeydew Error in The Final Shape DLC. This error indicates there are too many players trying to access the server at once. Though no matter the error, Bungie is on top of it.

The Bungie Help page on X are constantly updating their player base with what's going on with the servers. Typically they will schedule maintenance to the servers and let everyone know ahead of time on the Bungie Help page, so there are no surprises. However, sometimes the unexpected happens and when it does, they seem to be on top of it to let you know.

If the servers are down, you will be limited with what you can do on the game. One thing you could do is take your time to customize your character. Other than that, you'll just have to wait and continue to check the Bungie site for updates until it's back up and running.

IKEA is offering paying roles at a virtual furniture store inside Roblox. Why? I don't know but I sort of want to apply.

The Co-Worker Game is being launched in Roblox on June 24th, allowing a few lucky gamers to earn money working at a virtual IKEA. The Swedish furniture chain claims this is a way to experience IKEA's "unique approach to careers" with a "non-linear career journey" but there will be interviews.

OMG WHAT! /

Unfortunately, you're not alone in this desire and many other gamers will be frothing at the mouth to help customers find virtual nightstands or even locate where the meatballs are so you'll need to apply like the rest of us.

The recruitment process includes a questionnaire and will require an updated CV — videos can also be submitted. Yeah, some people want to work at fake IKEA so bad they are begging for it in videos so good luck getting a digital interview.

Just another reason to never get up from your gaming chair. We know you planned to finally leave the house this month to find cute napkin holders at IKEA but don't even worry about it. You can now do that in Roblox.

“We’re excited to be the first brand to launch paid work on Roblox to showcase how we do careers differently, bringing our unique careers philosophy to life. At IKEA, there is no set route to career progression," said Darren Taylor, Country People and Culture Manager, IKEA UK and Ireland.

There are many ways to learn and grow at IKEA, and that's what IKEA on Roblox is all about.”

How to Fix the Honeydew Error in Destiny 2: The Final Shape

Destiny 2's long-awaited DLC The Final Shape has arrived but it's come with some issues. Here's how to fix the Honeydew error code in Destiny 2.

The Final Shape is the conclusion of the current Light & Darkness saga, making it one of the most exciting DLCs in a while. Destiny 2 players have been anxiously waiting for its arrival but the release wasn't as smooth as some hoped.

When Destiny 2 players try to log into the game or click on a certain mode, many have received an error code that reads "Honeydew."

The Honeydew error is simply du to a large amount of players trying to jump into the same server at once. This creates connectivity issues. It's not really a surprise after fans waited so long for The Final Shape and seeing a peak of 300K players today, but it's still concern for anyone wanting to experience the changes.

Bungie has acknowledged the Honeydew error that has persisted in Destiny 2. They are actively looking for solutions but there is currently no official fix.

Meanwhile, players are urged to restart the game and reconnect to the activity they were trying to access. Doing this may take a few times. This has been a solid solution in many instances but is not a true fix for the Honeydew error.
