Destiny Freezing on Download Screen

WearyFeline088 · Jun 18, 2015

Hello everyone. I purchased Destiny and tried to install it today. Unfortunately, the 360 went into sleep mode towards the end of the installation and we had to restart the game. Every time we restart the game, however, Destiny reaches the installing screen
and then freezes. Sometimes it brings up an Xbox Menu, like the ones that appear when there is an update to a game. It never displays anything before freezing again. One time it proceeded past the install screen, told us that we'd have to reinstall it, and
then sat on Destiny's Signing In screen doing nothing.

Is this something wrong with the game, does it normally take this long for Destiny to load? We were waiting ~10 minutes on each screen before the next one appeared. If we have to uninstall all our progress on Destiny, how do we do so?

:)

Does your XBOX360 freeze?

I faced screen freeze problem 2 or 3 times, and it was because of the faulty game discs. But there are some other reasons that make your screen freeze while playing. Overheating is a most common reason. You may have a look in this article that explains it- Xbox Freezing Solutions.

I have posted a thread in how to's and tutorials forum that explains the solutions for screen freezing problems in details-- How to solve your Xbox 360 Screen Freeze Problem.

Sorry to hear you're having issues. It does indeed sound like you may need to uninstall and reinstall the game.

Head over to Settings>System>Storage and select your storage device then search through the Games section to find Destiny and delete the game. There is no need to worry about your saves, they're stored on the server.

After that clear the cache by Highlighting the storage device and press Y and follow the instructions.

Restart your console then head to Settings>Accounts>Download History (if you bought the game digitally) to find and reinstall it.

I can download the game on to the hard drive with no problems, and the game plays and gets to the press start screen, but it still freezes on the loading screen
