Why cant I join my brothers fire team

I am trying to join my brothers fire team in Destiny but the game comes up with the error of "Unable to join target player. Please try again". My brother and I are on the same network and we are able to join other peoples fire teams but never if one of us is in the fire team. We are trying to prgress through the story together and this is preventing us.

  • All you have to do to fix this problem is to make sure you have both finished the mission where you recieve the warp drive. After you have both completed this, you should be able to join the fireteam.

  • I have the same issue with my fiancee. We were so addicted to destiny that we had to buy another xbox one so that we would be able to play. After this recent update, we haven';t been able to join. It says unable to join target player. We have reset the consoles, reset the router, existed, relaunched the game, cleared the cache, changed the modem, and even changed the channel on the router, we also tried tricking the router and gave one of the xbox's a different IP and that didn't work. This is seriously frusterating. IT would be nice if they would fix this issue or have a customer support number to contacft to resolve the issue.

  • Hey bungie why don't you fix this already. I've already spent around $150 to play your game and now I can't even play with the people I want to. So you even care or are you just out for the money?

  • Fellas i found the fix for me go to Settings, System, System Information and change your console name to something like PS4 then your name. After that go to Account informaiton in settings, and click restore licenses then reset your PS4. Do that on both ps4's and you should be good. This worked for my brother and i

      • It literally sounds like every time someone finds a fix, it gets patched so that people on the same network can't join the same fireteam. We had it so that resetting the ps4s together usually fixed it and now it does nothing.

          Also having the same issue and was super frustrated. We had purchased a second Xbox one just so we could play destiny together! Out of desperation we changed the DNS one of the Xbox's to Google's public DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and surprisingly it worked! Just thought I'd share in case it works for others. EDIT: This worked yesterday but doesn't seem to be working now...
