In spite of Destiny’s smooth launch, there have been a few hiccups here and there, but nothing that hasn’t already been dealt with by the game’s developers at Bungie Studios.
Some Destiny players on the PlayStation 3 are encountering what’s known as the Boar bug. It’s an error code that prevents players from connecting to the online servers. Thankfully, Bungie has issued a fix for the bug. To do that, you’ll need to create a temporary new PSN account.
Before you get your feathers in a ruffle, this doesn’t mean you’ll need to delete your existing PSN account or anything like that. It’s simply to do with an authentication issue and a way to bypass it as a workaround.
So here’s what you’ll need to do (via VG247)
- Install Destiny.
- Before launching the game, create a new PSN account. Ensure that the region of your new PSN account matches the game’s region.
- Launch Destiny to download the update.
- After the update is downloaded, sign out of your current account and back into your original PSN account.
- Launch Destiny.
It's as simple as that.
