The Destiny conversation is only getting louder, as players are continuing to protest about the series apparently coming to a standstill. The newest twist is that Destiny 2 players plan to overload the servers on June 9 as an act of defiance.
If you’ve not been keeping up with the Destiny developments, oh boy. It’s been a wild month as Bungie announced Destiny 2 was getting no more updates. Not only that, but the news on Bungie making Destiny 3 after Destiny 2 isn’t good either.
With a petition ongoing and accruing serious signatures by the minute, the community has come up with another initiative.
Destiny 2 Slam The Server Party Invite for June 9
Community uproar has been on full display with the Destiny petition. Find out more about how to sign the ‘Save Destiny’ petition and all details right here, for more information.
Now, a Reddit post has gained traction and started to appear across all social media platforms that mention Destiny 2.
‘Everyone – Log in on June 9th’ is the simple message on the Destiny subreddit.
User w1nds0r has a plan:
We need to at least smash Marathon’s all time high to show them they made the wrong decision.
Heresy was amazing, the edge of fate story was interesting. They let this happen by doubling down on bad system changes and ignoring player feedback.
I feel like everyone should make a decent effort to log in on June 9th to show them this is a franchise worth continuing to invest in. If you can, try to get your friend and clan mates to all log in when the last update drops, it’s our last chance to send a message the franchise is still valuable. That’s all really.
Take care!’
The post has thousands of upvotes and over 1K comments on the idea. Now, yes, Reddit represents barely a portion of a game’s worldwide playerbase.
But it only takes one message or one movement to make a difference.
But the message is also being spread across other forms, including X.

Even if hundreds of thousands of players log in on June 9, it doesn’t mean Bungie or PlayStation will even blink an eye. All you can do is try, so we’ll see what happens come June 9.
