Updated on xbox one x, and the game will just randomly crash and close…no error. Checking mail, looking at weapons, totally random crashing.

The game seems to stop crashing after getting the Shrine Tutorial. Mine showed up super late.

My guild mate managed to get the Shrine Tutorial to show up by toggling through the Medals menu.

Hopefully Salty’s hotfix fixes that too.

The Shrine Achievement still doesn’t unlock on Xbox One though.

I reset my game and got the error on booting up the game:

Error  
There was an issue reading data from our servers. Please contact support quoting the error code: 8974927802

I can’t get on the game itself.

Edit: Tried again, got 0051171755. I guess the number changes after each error.

Restarted Xbox again, was able to load game and the Shrines tutorial popped up as well. So no crashes while interacting with the various menus and modes.

Still crashing for me. Restarted the console and redownload the game twice. Last a bit longer before crashing but still unplayable.

Edit: getting a pop up when login in “Sorry. Well this is embarassing. Our delivery agent don’t exctly know what to do with this purchase…”  
I don’t have any outstanding purchases this could be related to.
