Destiny 2 PC players claim Bungie is banning them without justification

The Destiny series has finally made the leap to PC, and you know what that means: cheaters. It’s not that difficult to use tools to “hack” PC games to get an advantage, and that could ruin Bungie’s new sci-fi shooter. The studio is trying to stay on top of that problem by banning players, but some people are claiming the studio banned them for no reason.

On forums like Reddit, Destiny 2 players are claiming that Bungie banned them for using harmless programs like the OBS recording software or the Discord communications service. These are supplemental PC apps that inject code into games to enable special features. That’s similar to how hacking apps work, but they don’t offer any material advantage toward playing the game. Of course, it’s tough for these players to prove the reason for their ban because Bungie doesn’t say “Discord” or something like that when it bans people. Instead, players are working backward from information on Bungie’s help site.
