Bungie has now acknowledged the problem<\/a> in its FAQ. It’s little more than “we are working to figure it out” but, when you’re otherwise hopeless, this is good news.<\/p>\n

However, Corey at work started getting disc read errors too, and his were on a freshly-transferred Elite system, right outta the box. Paul found him a simple workaround that seems to be holding for him, and it’s working so far for me: Don’t continue your game using the “Resume Solo Campaign” option at the main menu. Instead, load up the game from the Campaign menu, as if you were going into a co-op mission. Just play from the beginning of the chapter you’re stuck at (in my case, “The Ark”). The load was very slow, but it load worked. I am watching the opening cinema to that chapter now and I’m able to play a little bit, but if I die, I get a DRE when it tries to reload. Also, I get a DRE next time it tries to load new content, after my first battle area.<\/p>\n

Yes, I feel stupid for not trying this option before, but even though I can only get about five minutes further into the game, it gives me greater hope that this problem can be completely eradicated with a title update\/patch file. This is a fine manual workaround in the meantime. If you have this problem and Paul’s advice works for you too — or doesn’t! — comment and let me know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
