After 7 minutes of "loading...", had limited controls and black gameplay screen.

After 3 reboots and numerous errors I finally got into the game after loading for about 7 minutes, but it was unplayable. My controller had limited functionality (analog sticks and d-pad didn't work), and the gameplay screen was black with some UI elements. Other screens (map, customization, etc.) looked fine, it was just gameplay that didn't appear.
