The last two weeks or so, I've been unable to log into the game without completely disabling ProtonVPN, despite whitelisting every executable file in the game's installation directory (destiny2.exe, destiny2launcher.exe, miniTicketDbg.exe, and battleye/BEService_x64.exe). If I attempt to log in without first disconnecting entirely from my VPN, I'm met with an infinite loop of messages claiming the servers are unavailable - no animal error codes. This wasn't an issue until semi-recently, so it must presumably be something that changed in how Bungie's servers interact with someone using split tunneling.

Edited by RadeonXT: 3/29/2022 4:20:17 PMHello, this is because destiny does not support steam proton. battleye software also kicks this off on most VPNs because VPNs can be used in a way to circumvent IP bans. This is why it will not let you connect because battleye is unable to get your IP for your server to connect to their server. Using a VPN on its own would not result in a ban. However, if the VPN introduces networking issues causing your connection to other players in Competitive game modes to be less than optimal it could result in suspensions from Crucible and Gambit lasting anywhere from two weeks to two months at a time I would check out this article also regarding steam proton if you are using this ever: [quote]Steam Play Proton: Destiny 2 is not compatible with Steam Play's Proton. Attempting to circumvent this incompatibility will result in a game ban.
