I've had this happen to me since .29 and has carried over into full release. Guide doesn't appear. Also think it could be reason game isn't saving correctly for me. Had a game save that got corrupted after the guide issue. The date on game save was random date back in 1969. Could not load save after hard reset. Thus is a major issue. Game breaking.
Also want to add when the guide issue occurs no saving occurs during game play even though it still shows auto save icon. After quitting and saving out of the world and trying to copy save a notice pops up saying a copy can not be made at this time. Everytime it does that if you hit the guide button there is no guide. Then after while of trying an xbox message appears saying the system needs to be power cycled by hold xbox logo for 10 seconds to shut down.
