NBA 2K13 Freezing? 2K Sports is Aware of the Issue (FIXED)

08:51 AM - May 7, 2013 by Rotatingkitchen

It seems there are some issues when loading up NBA 2K13 today. For PS3 users, the game seems to boot up fine, but the online rosters have been reset to default. On the 360, users are freezing, during bootup, at the above image. The only way around it, is to disconnect from the Internet.

UPDATE: (As many have pointed out, if you have custom shoes, you will freeze on both 360 and PS3.)

2K Sports is aware of the problem and are currently working on the issue. This post will be updated as we get official updates.

Let us know what you're seeing.

Mine freezes whenever it gets to a menu that says "Loading Custom Shoe Data..." I even went ahead and deleted my two crappy user created shoes so it's gotta be something with them implementing new shoes, because those are more important than the many players that 2K has neglected to add in its roster updates.

Currently logged into NBA 2k13 as we speak. Scared to exit out and not be able to log back in lol.

I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH.

DO NOT DELETE YOUR SAVE DATA UNLESS SPECIFICALLY INSTRUCTED TO BY 2K STAFF. IF THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE ONLINE DATA, DELETING YOUR SAVE DATA WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE. DO NOT BLAME THE 2K TEAM IF AFTER THE PROBLEM IS FIXED YOU'RE LEFT WITH NO SAVES TO CONTINUE AND HAVE TO START EVERYTHING OVER.

The 2K dev team is looking into the issue. Until then, stay offline and away from online modes and you shouldn't encounter any problems.

I'm on 360 and my game completely freezes at the following screen:

Dunno if it's related to everyone else's issues or not. The crazy thing is I don't even have any custom shoes....But this is highly unfortunate.

Again, just because it hangs there doesn't mean you should delete your custom shoes (which as you said you have none). Wait until instructions arrive from the 2K team. Do you get that freeze even when not logged in to Xbox Live (or when offline)?

I deleted my custom shoes anyways because they were really ugly and I just never got around to it. How do I get instructions from said 2K team?

LD2k has posted on Twitter that the dev team believes the issue to be resolved. Does your game still hang when loading?

# 29 dubaitaib @ 05/07/13 03:32 PM

For me it freezes at the beggining, when it is loading all shoes and that. I cant get to the main manu

# 30 GudStuffzz @ 05/07/13 03:39 PM

Still freezing on the custom shoes loading part.

So this is happening to me on xbox

# 35 SuperNova854 @ 05/07/13 03:52 PM

Just like how two previous posters said. My game freezes when it goes to the loading custom shoes part. Once again, on Xbox 360. So it isn't/wasn't just on PS3.

Team is on these issues. Please continue to leave real-time feedback here as well on twitter. They're narrowing down on the issues behind it.

# 39 Leftos @ 05/07/13 04:07 PM

Can everyone please try disconnecting from any online network (Xbox Live/PSN) or completely disconnecting their console from the internet and telling me if the issue persists?

# 40 Brandon_2535 @ 05/07/13 04:09 PM

I'm missing official shoes since the loading screen freezing fix went live. Not sure if it's related or not.
