Ghost Scans in Tower and HELM
Pertaining mainly to interactable ghost scans in the tower and HELM. Others may exist, these are just the ones I have noticed.
Why do some of the interactable ghost scans not generate any content, specifically the lore audio or commentary/immersion content respective to the scan? My ghost performs the scan and it makes a noise as if it registers and then it does not say anything. I feel as though I remember some, if not most, of these producing commentary previously. The few other people I play with have the same issue and we have been for a while. Is this an issue others are having or should I be pursuing a fix? Are they just previously used assets copied to different locations or are they no longer being updated/used?
Thanks in advance for any insight.

2 RepliesSadly these have been broken since the end of Shadowkeep, if I recall correctly we were notified by Bungie that they were being removed prior to that, as I remember racing to scan them all. Occasionally you can find some that work, I think the one near Banshee-44 still works but I haven't interacted with it in a while. Curiously, they added "new" scannables after that was changed, the one you mentioned in the H.E.L.M. and also at least one more in the Duality dungeon, in one of the Psion rooms at the 1st boss fight area. Neither of those have ever worked yet to my knowledge but my assumption for this anomaly is because of how (at least how I am led to believe) the Tiger engine works, these points were most likely "copied & pasted" from older content's objects but not linked to any new or previous lore. It ised to be very fun to hear the audio cue, pull out your Ghost and see where it was looking to find a hidden scannable, not sure why this feature was removed but hopefully one day they will make a return.

Thank you! I think the Helm scan without dialog started in Season Of Defiance and in Season Of The Deep in the room before the Boss encounter, there's a terminal where you can initiate Ghost to scan but no dialog happens.

2 RepliesI was under the impression the scan messages were no longer relevant to the story and are otherwise outdated.

I agree! im not sure where they went, google doesn't seem to turn up much either
