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.

Thanks for all the support and advice concerning this matter. THe game is able to load up just fine, and I can say that I'm experiencing no lag or freezing at all and I can safely say that everything is back to normal for me....for now anyways. How is it for everyone else, I'm on ps3 btw.

Currently playing right now. Haven't logged off since I'm afraid I'll run into the issue if I do. Played a few games of My Team and Exhibition games and it's fine.

LOL, its seems like that the 2k dev team fixed the problem. I was able to load normally and no freeze what so ever.

Ok I got mine to work but I had to start the game without being signed in to my gamertag. Once it went to the create player screen, I just made a generic guy and let it proceed to the main menu. After that, I logged into my gamertag and it.took me back to the start screen. This time, when I pressed start, it worked normally.

have got the problem on xbox 360.

signed out from live and the game loaded fine.

signed back into live after the game was loaded and its loaded my profile setting correctly.

I don't know if my problem is related but I was playing fine this morning. I turn my xbox off for a couple hours and now when I try to start the game It freezes at the title screen.

I have tried deleting stuff and tried to start up while offline and it freezes at the same spot.

Edit: I signed off my gamertag and made it to the create a player screen. Went past that and then signed in. After signing in it went back to the title screen and Froze at the same spot again.

# 49 Speranza21 @ 05/07/13 05:25 PM

Yep happening to me on Xbox. Start up the game, and it freezes

# 50 Steve_OS @ 05/07/13 05:25 PM

For me.

360 boots up to "Loading custom shoe data. Please do not turn off your Xbox 360 console... (and then freezes)

PS3 boots up fine, but the online rosters are using the default start of the season rosters. Haven't attempted anything else online.

I'm on PS3 and I still have the "loading custom shoe data" freezing problem

This is my problem as well.

What i noticed while playing a friend online today for the 360 was the rosters and gameplay resetting. The scoreboard disappearing and euro 3pt glitch kicked back in like the game use to play before the updates.

Both those problems were fixed with Online Data updates, not a patch. If Online Data has been temporarily disabled or reset to default while the team is working on the issue, these issues will be there. As soon as Online Data resumes its normal service, those issues will go away again.

update*

played up to hal time in an association game and quit and saved out and it froze again to say loading shoe file.

# 60 Nox_Caelum @ 05/07/13 05:59 PM

Ok, so I logged in fine yesterday, went to log in tonight and it froze, tried again froze, and gave up. Decided to come on OS 'cause I'd remembered seeing a few threads about the game freezing at start up and found this thread. I've signed out of the PSN and got into the game fine.
The one thing I want to say, is that about a month ago my internet was cut off and I coudln't connect to the PSN, and then while trying to play 2K it would freeze when it prompts you to press START at the main screen. I just find it odd that about a month ago I couldn't get into the game unless I was online, now I can only get into the game if I'm offline.
