Thumbs down Game Freezing Etiquette

After going the better part of two weeks without any games freezing, I thought they finally patched this bug. I was wrong. In my past 6 games, 5 have frozen. I was leading in the late innings in 5 of those games. I got credited with the loss in all 5. The one game that I was losing I quit immediately, because it's only fair.

To the people who say "It's only a video game, who cares? Just quit.": yes. It is just a video game. If this happened once in a blue moon- fine. But how is it fair that I should get 6 losses in a row when I am WINNING? If you're argument is "Just quit. Play for fun." That's fine when you can complete a game. But if I'm going to spend an hour of my life playing a game, it's pretty sh*tty to get multiple losses that I shouldn't. The game of chicken to see who quits first is really pathetic. I'm not going to just let my ps4 sit there for hours hoping the other guy quits first.

Whoever is losing should quit- I think that's common sense. If it's a tied game- then just suck it up. If you're losing- you should quit. Don't be a baby and sit there for HOURS just so you can get a "win".

Agreed, I have been preaching this. Ill just quit cause I rather play another game then have a 2 hour freeze off. But people show a little respect.

Did you play last year? This was a daily occurrence. For me at least, things have been pretty solid this year.

Last year, I was always the first one to quit whether winning or losing but it started affecting my health. So now, I find other things to do to take my mind off of it before I eventually quit.

This used to happen a lot playing ncaa 14. I used to get really stressed about it and would wait it out most of the time. Now I'm over it, if my game freezes I'll wait maybe a minute or two then quit. It's not worth the stress.

Honestly when this happens to me I wait it out and the longest I've had to wait was like a half hour I just switched to my X1 and watched Netflix

Or you could just play the CPU.

I grew pretty tired of the characters I would find online in diamond dynasty.

Re: Game Freezing Etiquette

If I was winning, I'll leave the game running and go do something. I expect my opponent to just give me the win.

If the game is tied or I was losing, I'll immediately turn it off. I'm fine with taking the loss in that situation.
