If it hasn't happened to you then its easy to brush it of as just people moaning but at the end of the day the freezes shouldn't be there in the first place. EA need to get this fixed for the guys who were good enough to part with their hard earned cash just to get faulty product.

i absolutly agree!!!

Another freeze, this time while playing a game in BAP.

How can they release a game with this glaring issue?! Pretty embarrassing EA...

yea i got many freezes playing BAP specially if its showing the replay of a penalty and i press "B" so i can skip the replay and whoolaaa.... my game freezes while my 360 still working. all i can do is turnoff my 360 and on again. even my controller is not responding when it freezes.

you know why EA have that pre-release game you can d/l if you pay? because EA is so cheap paying their own Quality Assurance and making their paying customer their tester. I just have to laught it or else you get so frustrated and pissed your whole gaming experience playing their game.

hopefully 2K will step up on the ice or another developer to give us another option for playing NHL. i remember 2k released their 2k3 and blasted out EA for several years. i guess the best way to hit their lazy QA and failure to hear BaGM (IMO) is have their Sales hit below par so they will smarten up like what they did in NHL 07.

I think the freezing thread over at the EA forums have know been stickied. Hopefully that will draw some more heat to the issue.

So does signing onto psn mean the game will be freezing? Cause I've played a few hours and no freeze yet, and I use custom music also. I haven't signed into psn since before i got nhl12, so does this mean that I shouldn't sign on until this problem is fixed?

I don't play that online league or any online mode except HUT. So if I signed onto the ea servers just to download the roster/tuners and then signed off psn,do you think my game would freeze or not,because that's all I really want to sign on to do.

For those that have read several threads/posts...is the freezing as bad on the 360, as it seems to be on PS3?

I'd like to start my GM mode [on 360] but if the freezing is pretty bad there too...I'll just wait then.

Any info is much appreciated.

Remember how I hadn't had any freezing problems? Spoke too soon. Third game of my offline BAP, I hit pause, and it freezes. I was not signed into either the PS network or the EA network.

I didn't have any problems with freezing in NCAA 12, so maybe this is my penalty?

Quote from one of the developers on the EA forum:

Hi all, First off, I want to assure everyone in the forums that your issues are not being ignored. Just because someone is not in here posting a response to every message does not mean we aren't aware of your issues. The team here is all hands on deck trying to reproduce your issues. What we need from people who are seeing issues is information. We have testers and developers here trying to reproduce your freezes and crashes, but alot of times we are just not seeing it. This could be because you did a step that we haven't done. With NHL12 being as big a title as it is, there are many variations of sliders and settings that you may have set that we need to know when trying to reproduce your issues. Going forward, when posting in this thread about a crash or a freeze, please give us AT LEAST the following info. Console: Online or Offline: Which game mode were you in: Wired or Wireless connection: What did you notice right before you froze or crashed: Where did the freeze or crash occur (in gameplay? in a screen? NIS sequence? please be speicfic): If you are experiencing a crash and have posted in this forum, please check your PM's. The dev team will be reaching out specifically to users and requesting more information. Thank you.

Not trying to sounds disrespectful toward EA, but isn't this something that should have been taken care of by the QA department at EA Canada?

I mean I know that they can't find EVERY bug before release but com'on, I got a freeze on my copy within 15 games.

How come it has become the norm for EA to release games, and let the masses be their free beta testers where they might or might not even fix the problems?

Something it just really wrong with this attitude they have about this IMO.....
