Stuck on Connecting screen after selecting A to play
I am logged in to Xbox live gold
Worked fine yesterday
Updated: Performed every possible procedure on the console to try and fix this. ( HARD RESET< POWER CYCLED< RE-INSTALLATION< ACCOUNT RESET< CLEARED PERSISTENT DATA CACHE< RESET MAC ADDRESS SETTINGS< REFRESHED SYSTEM TO MFG SETTINGS< CREATED ALTERNATE XBOX LIVE GOLD ACCT< REMOVED EVERY POSSIBLE ROUTER SETTING THAT WOULD HINDER CONNECTION (firewalls included) < ABLE TO PLAY OTHER GAMES ON LIVE.
Firstly I started out by contacting Xbox live 1h later after doing everything possible to fix this on their end they told me to contact Bungie because its their server issue. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTACT BUNGIE FOR HELP!!!
Connection info: 29.## Mbit/s DL 7.## Mbit/s UL. Open NAT all ports are open.
IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT!
---------BELOW------ Conversation with Xbox live support--------
Albert: Thanks for the details and for performing all the steps by the way. Be right back.
Albert: Thanks for patiently waiting, Jesse.
Jesse: No problem. I appreciate the help
Albert: I'm able to check that your account is actually all good our end. However, I got a confirmation from our Servers Team and we indeed have gotten alerts from Bungie Servers that some users are indeed not able to sign in to their accounts. This is actually and internal third party Game server issues, and some users were able to sign back in after the Game Publisher was able to refresh their accounts on the game server's end. To fix this, I highly suggest you contact Bungie (or Activision- Game Publisher) to refresh your account and allow you to connect to their server. Here are their contact information:

I returned the Xbox to the store and got a new one which resolved the issue. While this is not an option for most people. This fixed the issue. I believe changing the MAC address was part of this fix. Possible server lease renewal issue I'm not sure.

Hi switch on your console don't go into game go to settings then system hit clear local saved games ,don't. Worry game will sync after you start it up works for me this happens from time to time if you exit mid mission or turn of console mid strike good luck I hope this helps

Are you using best dns servers for your area? I dont know if it would fix problem but its worth a try

Caps don't help

ADD:: I created a second Xbox live gold account and am still having the same issue. If that helps any possible solutions at all. Thanks

What exactly are you seeing? Do you receive a message with an error code of some kind? What is it? Are you on a black screen with an icon in the lower right, that won't go away? I'd take what that Microsoft person said, with a grain of salt. There is not a reset of accounts required.

Did you try a hard reset
