Why did Destiny 2 go offline?
As of yesterday (January 24th) the Bungie team has shut down the servers to resolve an issue with player progress. In fact, several users had complained about the loss of achievements, seals, catalysts and other game progress. The problem has gradually become more and more extensive, forcing Bungie to have to permanently fix the bug. To do this, the development team had to take the game offline.
Our investigation and testing continues. To set expectations, this issue will not be resolved tonight.
We are estimating a timeline of 3-4 AM PST tomorrow, January 25, for our fix to get deployed. Timeline subject to change.
More info will be provided once available.

On the game’s subreddit several users have expressed concerns about how downtime will affect their ability to complete the various timed events limited set by the game. Several players have asked Bungie for the possibility of recovering the two lost days, perhaps through a rollback of progress and timed events. Currently Bungie has not officially responded to these requests.
Meanwhile, in addition to server problems, Destiny 2 is preparing for the release of Lightfall, the game’s seventh DLC out February 28th.
