I've been running into a couple issues with the game since MoT, one I have seen mentioned and supposedly addressed but it still keeps coming back, and the other I've yet to hear mention of.
The first is with Ada-1's Synth bounties. I don't know exactly what triggers it as it seems to be arbitrary but I am once again being locked out of picking up new bounties. This time around it first locked me out on I think Saturday, but then "unlocked" at the weekly reset. However after picking up a single bounty it locked out again. It seems that some coding for the seasonal bounty limit lockout is still in effect and is triggering at random after turning in a completed Synth bounty. Given that there are no "seasons" any more and supposedly such restrictions were meant to be removed it seems likely that there is still some portion of coding that has escaped the purge. Ideally I would like to see all form of restrictions removed from these bounties (including the "only one per type at a time" restriction; if I want to load up on a dozen PvE Threader bounties to speed things along it should be allowed at this point), or at the very least have the requirements dialed down significantly. But just having it so I can complete and turn in any number of bounties in any window of time without getting locked out again.
The second bug I've been running into seems to coincide with any "maintenance" and occasionally the normal weekly reset. I will be blocked from logging in by an error message claiming "parental controls" do not allow my account to access the game. There have never been any "parental controls" on my account as I was an adult by the time I ever had an account and there are no kids around that I would need to enable any controls for.

[/quote] That's not a bug, you get 1 new bounty per week per class and can hold a max of 10 at once. [quote]Armor Synthesis bounty completion has been reset to give players an initial 10 available.

One cause is the game not being properly quit at the time of shutdown (ie simply turning the console off without quitting it first but you have sleep enabled). It's unlikely Bungie are going to issue any fixes for it at this stage because its got a easy workaround and the final gameplay bug fix was a while back, anything future is critical/emergency with the chance of an upkeep.

3 RepliesHey there, for Ada-1's bounties, please see the following from the 9.7.0 patch notes. https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/Article/destiny_update_9_7_0 [quote]Updated Threader Bounty Reset: No longer resets seasonally, instead players will earn one additional threader bounty, per class, per week. New bounties available each week at weekly reset.

So if you've hit that cap, then were allowed to pick one more up after reset, and were immediately restricted from getting more, that sounds like what is happening.
