Update: Xbox Live’s Core Services are now down too. Users may experience problems signing in to Xbox Live on all devices.
Bungie today opened up Earth’s Moon to players for a limited two hour window, telling players to “show our servers what war really is.”
Looks like it worked.
I experienced the crash first hand, as I was gaming on the moon with a friend when we disconnected from each other. After checking our friends lists, we were no longer able to invite each other or matchmake with others. Destiny’s public stress test has succeeded in successfully crashing Xbox Live.
The official Xbox Service page says Social and Gaming are Limited, telling us that “Xbox members, are you having trouble viewing the online state and activity of other users on your Friends list? Hang in there, we’re working to get everything back to normal as quickly as possible. Thanks for your patience during this process. Another update is coming your way in 30 minutes.”
Looks like Bungie is aware of the issue on their end, and working to correct is.
Even tho way more players on PSN, this never happened to us. Seems like all that "xbox live has better servers, more stable" than PSN is just talk.
