    Alpha skip ahead. Unable to play games online


    Hello! I have only tried Apex and Fortnite… but I am unable to get into the games to play. Apex says I’m unable to contact EA servers and Fortnite won’t go past the title screen.

    I haven’t tried other games because I don’t have gold right now. I did try the games on PC and have no issues booting up and playing either one.

    I have restarted my console (holding power button) and have restarted my router multiple times and still have issues connecting. Any ideas?

    I have the alpha skip ahead program. My OS is 10.0.22557.1505.

    I'm in xbox insiders delta, sooooooo...

    That feature is only available to Alpha,Alpha skip aheads & Beta Insiders at the moment.

    As you are in the Delta ring you will still need gold to play any games online.

    Unfortunately registration ended a couple of days ago - https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2018/06/29/alpha-skip-ahead-registrations-closed/
    If that is case then..... they shouldn't be sending out messages inviting you to join. Christ, I am starting to feel a bit pee'vd about the whole Microsoft experience just now. Over the Xbox console years.... from day 1, its been:

    • 1st your an Ambassador
    • Then you get kicked
    • then its a stupid 1 day ban
    • Then your Insider
    • Promoted to Alpha Skip ahead program
    • Buy the new Xbox1X
    • download content to new Xbox1X
    • that includes the Insider Program
    • But hey.... NO Insider Alpha Skip Ahead
    And now the registrations are closed???? WHF?

    Ok, I went over the top with the bullets.... Please bare in mind people, that I've just turned 46 and now fall into the category of grumpy bugg** .

    Hi

    Unfortunately once the Alpha Skip ahead tier reached capacity and they had to stop accepting additional new members. When the invites were sent out there would have been places available in the Alpha Skip ahead group however once these
    places filled up no additional members (even with invites) could join at this group.
