All,
There is currently a known glitch in the coding of the Microsoft XB1 code with regards to those in the preview program specifically the Alpha users (not using the alpha software but those receiving the most unstable versions of the OS) that is NOT allowing certain games to work. One of those games is Destiny. You will not be able to connect from the XBOX Live Servers to the Bungie switching servers which will NOT allow you to play your game.
While I appreciate your frustration and anger towards this, I hate to say it but this is part of being in a test program. As a coder, I can tell you being part of this program is great but you will ALWAYS run into issues like this (same as if you ran the Microsoft Windows Preview builds). The repair patch may be several days to a week or so out to re-patch the update and fix it. When you signed up for the program, they warned you that there may be issues with games/apps/etc. while in the program as the test community is who helps work these bugs out.
This problem is NOT an easy fix. It will take some time. That means you may be out several games for quite some time until that bug is chased down. Occasionally, you can reboot your console, your router and your modem by allowing them to sit unplugged for >2 minutes; it MIGHT allow you to play for a short time but eventually you will be back to the same situation you are in right now.

Xbox is garbage. Yes I can say that when I went through three 360 in a short time frame. I'll give you a bump for this topic for awareness.

Cross your fingers for Thursday/Friday.

UPDATE: Xbox One Insiders - Preview Alpha MP update. Internal tests passed today. Pending sign-off tomorrow am we will push to Alpha ring (Thurs PM)
-
I'm in the alpha ring on 4 consoles didn't even notice this till yesterday. I'm 400 and have just about everything and at least 400+ strange coins so I haven't much to do on Xbox at the moment. Been leveling up my PS4 character. Finally got jade rabbit yesterday! Hope they do fix it soon I'd at least like to get my weekly and packages from reef.
-
This is fine I think perfect many Thanks for the help and sorry I did not see your message and I could not read it but thanks for the information

Update: Xbox One Insiders - Preview Alpha update on MP - Testing fix internally on flight rings to ensure fix works, will provide update later today https://mobile.twitter.com/workwombatman/status/834100783704530944

FYI, tests failed today. May be fixed tomorrow but not looking likely.

T-T-T

Fair play to you, my friend. Though it appears obvious, it needed saying. As part of a test program, it isn't always plain sailing. Yes, they've broken it but they're likely working tirelessly (and if I know Microsoft, probably whilst looking down the barrel of a gun) to get a fix to us as soon as possible. And not a 'patch' which suggests temporary repair but a 'fix' which will mend the problem and likely prevent it or anything similar happening again. And for all those asshats flitting around cursing and threatening lawsuits etc... it didn't say 'flawless' on the box, guys. Mistakes happen, issues arise. The best thing you can do is build yourself a bridge and get over it. So far the Insider Program has been nothing but some occasionally funny looking text and a great way to get the sweet new features first. Now it's risen up and bitten ALL of us in the ass. So get over the issue and get over yourselves. It'll be fixed when it's fixed and not a moment sooner.

Destiny is about the only game i play. I wonder if Microsoft is going to add the days we havent been able to play to our accounts?
-
I can confirm this. I haven't been able to sign Into Destiny since the alpha update. Sucks. It's only happening with Destiny to my knowledge.
-
What is the reward for being a beta or alpha program tester? I never heard of this program. What do you get from being part of it, in the end?
-
Yea its been two days for me now. I was just more worried that something got screwed up with my destiny game. Everything else was working fine (well mostly) but I just couldn't get on to destiny. Glad I finally found an answer, thanks. Gonna wait it out this time, but might get out of the preview program. It's not worth it not being able to play a game.
-
i dumped the insider preview , waited 12 hours for the downgrade prompt for the 4gb downgrade loaded destiny & can play , did not have reinstall my games
-
Thank you for the update. I was searching for an explanation as to what was happening. Now I do not have to wonder anymore. Overall, I'm happy with the Insider (preview) program. As you stated, it's voluntary and is used to help fix errors before they are fully rolled out to everyone. Again, the update is very much appreciated. I'll move along to another game until the issue is fixed. Good luck and happy travels guardians!!
-
Thanks for posting this!
-
Bump again, this is really frustrating and still no response other than 'we're looking into it' on the main forums.

Edited by irishfreak: 2/19/2017 12:26:04 PMAny idea on which build/ring has the issue? I did have some trouble trying to launch destiny yesterday but it did eventually work. (just checked and im not on that build yet so its all good)
-
I don't have the preview and it still saying the servers are down and gives me the error code:marionberry but all my other stuff works so it's not just the alpha users
