    Re: The Freezing Issue

    Console - Xbox 360
    Game Mode - Dynasty
    Teams Used - Cincinnati Vs Cornell
    Did You Call Time Out - No
    Updates - None (Right Out Of The Box)
    Auto Subs (Off/On) - Off


    What Happened -

    Ok, I've had two game freezes within the last 2 or 3 hours. One was showing the halftime stats and the camera touring the arena and it froze. The second freeze was at the start of my NCAA Tournament Game Vs Cornell. They were showing the line-ups and was just about to tip off when it froze.

    Now I have been playing my Xbox 360 pretty much all night. But I almost always leave it on over night and I've had it for 3 years. Nothing had ever froze on me before tonight. Do you guys think it's just from being played mostly all day? Or is it actually the game?

    I think it the problem may be when the game is touring the stadium showing stats and all the fans being crazy.

      Console: 360
      Mode: Dynasty
      Game: Syracuse vs. Colgate
      Auto Subs: Off
      Replays: On

      Game froze up on me midway through the first half of the game. I inbounded the ball, took a couple of dribbles and then the game just froze. First freeze I've had and I've played this game for over 3 weeks now. Re-booted and didn't change any of my settings and was able to get through the entire game with no issues aside from the usual replay stutter.

          Holy crap.. you leave your xbox on over night? Is it ever off? lol. That's not good for your 360 man.

          Anyway, I'm so disappointed EA isn't releasing a patch for this issue. I really want this game. I bought CH2K8 today and while it's still fun, it doesn't feel fresh and it feels a little outdated now. I play 360 and this freezing issue worries the hell out me. I don't want to spend money on a game that freezes every game. Oh well I guess.

          EDIT: Have any of you guys tried installing this game to your hard drive? I know I had freezing issues in Madden last year, or maybe the year before, and once I installed the game to my hard drive, the freezes went away.

            Revis, I have the game installed to my HDD. So far, the game has froze just 1 time and I've played well over 20 games, in addition to editing 100 teams. Seems like it helps. The replays do stutter and drop in framerate still but the game continues on.

              Sadly that doesn't fix this issue. I had this game when it released, but I sold it because it would not stop freezing on me. I put it on the hard drive, and that didn't make a difference. It fixed it for me in the 09 version of this game, but not this one.

                I had my 3rd freeze the other night on my PS3. Not to bad considering I have played this game pretty much non stop since my day 1 purchase.

                  I have had two freezes on my PS3, probably over about 70 games played.

                    Didn't have too many freezes to start out with in my dynasty (around 6 for the first year). However, in just my 3rd season alone I have had 12 freezes! Extremely annoying!!

                      You are more patient than me. If I had that many, I'd be trading the game in ASAP.

                        Because of the constant freezes, I went ahead and traded in the game. Bought a new one thinking everything would be ok. WRONG! The game froze during a timeout of the National Championship! Yes, the National Championship, not a more horrible time to freeze!! Rebooted my xbox, restarted the game, only to have it freeze YET AGAIN while the cpu was taking the ball upcourt! Replayed the game a 3rd time and, you guessed it, FROZE again with 7 seconds left in the game!

                        Never have I liked a game so much but been so utterly frustrated at the same time! If someone can file a class action lawsuit against Microsoft for detective Xbox 360s and win, then maybe some initiative needs to be taken either by EA or a third party against EA to fix this problem

If you experienced a freeze, please post in this thread following the template below. That way, Blackflash could quickly gather some information and relay it back to the necessary department.

                          If haven't or aren't experiencing freezes, please do not post in this thread. And please do not clutter this thread with conversation about the freezing issue. Lets keep this thread as organized as possible.

                          Template
                          Console playing on?
                          Game mode playing?
                          Did you update? If so, which dynamic update are you using?
                          What teams were you using at the time of the freeze?
                          Did you call a timeout?
                          Autosubs on/off?
                          If not during gameplay, which screen were you on when the game froze?
                          Any other information you can think of that would be relevant to helping find the source.


                          Thanks.

                          PS: Could a mod possibly sticky this thread. Thank you in advance.

                            Recently bought it for $20, and have only played Quick Games. No freezes yet. I am afraid to try a dynasty.

                              There's no freezing if you play it on a PS3. I have a PS3 for this game only! It's that good!

                                Man I'm really tempted to buy this for PS3 but for 35 at gamestop I'm not sure it's worth it.
