Destiny update 1.2.0 released, but not activated

Depending on whether or not you were on Destiny earlier today, you may have noticed a slight hiccup that kicked you from activities. This was a result of Bungie pushing out the new Destiny update 1.2.0.

The new patch, which you are required to download, did… well, nothing. Yet.

According to Bungie, the update was pushed out, but not yet activated. The actual changes it brings with it will go live at "a later date" which Bungie has yet to announce.

Bungie has yet to provide actual patch notes for the update, but highlighted a few changes coming to the game's PvP with it.

• The spawn locking issue currently affecting Iron Banner will be fixed
• Legendary items will be added to post-game reward tables for all Crucible activities
• Your first match in the daily featured Crucible activity will earn you a new reward package each day
• Reputation and Mark gains will double for each completed Crucible match
• Etheric Light has a chance of being included in Iron Banner reward packages for Rank 3 and Rank 5
• And, finally, these maps from The Dark Below will become the domain of all and be added to the standard rotation for select playlists: Pantheon, Skyshock, The Cauldron

While Update 1.2.0 doesn't yet have a release date, Bungie did previously say it will go live "shortly before" the May 19th release of House of Wolves.
