I am trying to install the most recent update/patch for DESTINY 2, Update Version 1.23 (August 28th, 2018) and it Won't Download. Every single. Destiny 2 update: 1.13 patch notes LIVE following PS4 and Xbox One server down time NEW Destiny 2 update notes have been released today, following the launch of the 1.13 patch on PS4, Xbox One.
Destiny 2 players can download the Warmind DLC right now, but it's apparently not working for everyone. Mere moments after release, Bungie has responded to licensing bugs with the game's latest expansion.
'DESTINY 2' DLC NOT WORKING? ACTIVATE YOUR LICENSES.
The most common problem facing Destiny 2 players across PS4 and Xbox One right now is that its content isn't available in game despite the content being purchased and installed. Bungie responded to these matters via an official tweet.
'Console players that purchased the Season Pass may need to activate their licenses to the Warmind expansion to enable access to the content,' the message reads. 'This can be done through the console game library or by navigating to the console store page for the expansion. On PS4, for example, you may need to scroll over to 'Library' and tap the icon for Warmind. On Xbox, a quick trip to the Warmind page on the Microsoft Store might solve your problems.
If the fix doesn't work immediately, try rebooting your console and starting the Warmind DLC again. If you can't use Warmind at all or can't share the DLC like you used to, these steps should get things working again.
STUCK ON INITIALIZING, GRAPHICS PROBLEMS
On PS4, another common problem with the Warmind DLC download is that it gets stuck in the initializing phase. To fix this, a full restart of your console should do the trick.
On PC, users have reported issues with graphical glitches. Reinstalling Warmind should fix it, but you might also need to update your graphics drivers to. Go to the drivers page for your card, likely AMD or NVIDIA, and download the latest build. New drivers are known to solve bugs like these.
'DESTINY 2' APP NOT WORKING
Unfortunately, if you've encountered any issues with the Destiny 2 companion app, these are due to changes in the software as a result of the expansion. If your characters don't load properly, they will in a short while after service has stabilized. There's no fix besides patience for this one.
Destiny 2 , and its Warmind DLC, are available now on PS4, Xbox One and PC. Both free and paid updates have been released.

Now that the Xbox One is upon us we are hearing about (shocker) a handful of different Xbox One launch issues. The main problem seems to be a disc drive fail, which we discussed early this morning. But another problem seems to be vexing gamers: Xbox One games won't install. And if your Xbox One games won't install then you can't PLAY Xbox One games and now you're looking at a $500 Netflix machine. Fortunately, there seems to be a fairly simple solution if your Xbox One games won't install.
OXM is reporting that the best solution for Xbox One games that don't install is to simply disconnect your Xbox One from the internet. A similar method has been discovered by Nerdacy. The logic behind it is pretty simple. There are a ton of people all trying to download the same updates from servers right now so when you put a disc in the Xbox One and it won't install it's likely just sitting in a queue trying to download an update first. If it can't get the update it will wait and wait and wait and, after six months of waiting for the console to arrive those first few minutes can be torturous. I know. I set up my Xbox One last night and every passing minute felt like an eternity.
Here's the step-by-step on what to do is you Xbox One games won't install.
Step One: Disconnect your console from the internet.
Destiny Update Won't Download
Step Two: Power down your console by holding the power button in for ten seconds.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT power down the console while it's trying to install/download an update. Use the home button to cancel out of the installation before powering down.

Step Three: Turn the console back on and retry the install offline.
Step Four: (Assuming the install works) Reconnect to the Internet and all is right with the world.
It's worth noting that a slightly more involved solution is being touted on Nerdacy. This involves relatively the same logic (getting offline for the game install) but recommends going to Settings and restoring the factory defaults first. You'll have to set up your profile and all that good stuff again, but if the above steps don't work you might want to give the factory default trick a shot before you try the offline install.
