How does Destiny 2 save?

Arqade Asked by DragonChampion7 on April 23, 2021

Sorry, I’m new to the game and was wondering how to save the game/know when it autosaves. This was not explained in the (very limited) tutorial. I don’t want to lose all my progress so far.

Gear will be saved the moment you acquire it.

Mission progress will be lost if you quit. Most of the time, missions are short enough that it should be considered "acceptable" if you have to quit early. Once a mission is complete and you return to the solar system map, that mission counts as completed.

The intro tutorial is actually a collection of missions, and I'm pretty sure if you quit during one, it will bring you back to the most appropriate starting point.

There are checkpoints in some missions that it reverts to if you die, but these aren't stored after quitting.

Destiny and Destiny 2 are always online RPGs and the games will be continuously saved. It would be almost impossible for progress to be lost, and there is no need (and no possible way) to manually save.

Go ahead and play and quit whenever you like and you won't lose experience, gear, or bounty progress. But if you are in the middle of a story mission, patrol mission, strike, raid, crucible/gambit match, ect then that progress will be lost and will need to be redone.

To add to the previous answers, your data is saved to your account while you play. Everything you do is stored on your account's database entries. A list like this is generated based on the data that is saved on the destiny servers, and your game is loaded based on the values that you've accumulated so far. So your PlayStation/PC will send a query to the destiny servers that hold this information like, SQLConnectionString = "server:10.10.103.424 userid=admin pass=password" SQLQuery = "Select * from savedCharacterValueTable"--this table holding queries of it's own that ask the other tables for information(like a bodyArmorTable and a weaponTable). The results are stored on a list. then loaded to your game on startup.

A list like this is easy to load from. Account #:1232323 Class:Hunter Items.Weapons = [Gun1, Gun2, etc.] Items.Head = [Helmet1, Helmet2, etc.] Items.CurrentlyEquipped(Head=HelmentGreen,Body=ArmorLastLoggedOffWith,MainGun=gun1,SubGun=gun5) Glimmer = 100000 Total Strikes = 500 Crucible.Control.Total = 200 Crucible.Control.Win = 150 Crucible.Control.Loss = 50
