Destiny 2 has a crashing problem on the PlayStation 4 Pro which is affecting a sizeable number of gamers playing specifically on Sony’s supercharged system. While the CE-34878-0 error doesn’t appear to be hindering everyone, it has proved prevalent enough for the platform holder to release a statement on the bug.
Writing on Twitter, the firm said that it’s collaborating with developer Bungie to fix the dreaded blue screen of death: “We're aware that some Destiny 2 users have seen crash issues on PS4 Pro,” the company said. “We and Bungie are working to resolve, thanks for your patience.”
Our understanding is that the crashes mostly come about during Crucible matches, though this is by no means the only area where errors occur. Hopefully a patch is released soon, as this is clearly an issue that needs to be fixed quick.

This is the kind of thing that crops up not only in the games QA, but also during submission. I'm surprised Sony let it through given its happening to so many people, then again, maybe both they and Bungie never encountered it in testing.
I have 2 Pro's and have not encountered this issue on either one. Several players in my clan have had this issue a long with another clan mate that can't play the game past the 4th story mission because it crashes there every run. Just seems so random.
I am yet to get this for my PS4 (If I do). After buying Destiny, and all expansions on 'both' systems, I don't know that I want to spend £160ish over 3 years 'twice' again. Granted that £320ish did provide me with thousands of hours and whilst that is a 'lot' it did work out as my 'best' value on a purely 'cost per hour' basis - under 10p per hour...
The most issues I have seen on XB1 though is a few 'minor' connecting to Destiny 2 servers messages. Its prevented me from picking up an engram or swapping my gear around for a second or 3 but so far, that's all I have encountered.
I wouldn't mind picking it up on PS4 for the Pro and 'additional' content - as well as to play with the PushSquare community - I enjoyed that with D1. However I also know that purchasing the game itself is just the start and more investment will be required over time. I also don't know if I have the time or inkling too run 6 guardians through all the content...
I have only had one crash on my Pro in 20+ hours of play. That said I never mess with the Crucible. I'm a PVE guy all the way.
I must be one of the lucky ones too. Racked up about 40 hours over several days of play and not a single crash on my Pro.
Just in case anyone is keeping a running tally, I've also completed (nearly) all of the adventures and the campaign, and I've never had a crash on my Pro. Like Splat said, however, I've never messed with the Crucible, either.
Haven't had a single crash on my Pro in about 40 hours, but I know people who have had one or two.
Not had an issue and have a pro from a launch batch if that makes a difference?
I have had several of these crashes on my D2 LE Pro (irony!). All have occurred in Trostland. First 2 were within a few minutes of loading the map. One occurred near the finish of a public event (arrrgh!!). The last occurred walking back from a completed mission. They seem very random.
No crashes for me. Glad it's happening to lots of people though, higher chance they'll take it seriously and get a fix out quicker..
Haven't had any crashes, but my video and audio is cutting out for 1 second, at random while playing. No other game has done it, just destiny 2.
@shafedog247 Maybe he could try a fresh install sometimes it helps.
never encountered this problem. I have played over 30 hours.
The game was unplayable on my pro, didn't work at all the introduction froze and crashed every time when you meet zavala
Well I'll be damned. It just happened to me right now.
It's happened to me--one moment I was playing fine, and then I got an error screen without any warning. I'm still loving the game, though!
..only 2 of these crashes since Wednesday (non-stop playing it!) but I've had a few instances whereby I've gone to the farm and then it's a black screen and "there's a problem with your Bungie account" - as if it's their servers or something - and you have to reset the the game (usually after unlocking engrams) - that's happened a good handful of times... :/
