At the end of the game after the final whistle but before the highlights. Florida @ Miami.

80% of the games I play. Of 80% of the games I play, 40% of them freeze randomly when players are about to line up at the LOS. The remaining 60% freezes after I've invested 2 hours in the game, and it sticks on the loading screen to return to the main menu.

Game play updates...gameplay updates....gameplay updates.....is it too freaking much to ask for a game that at least PLAYS when I turn it on? I will never ever buy another EA product. This is just awful. This update for October quite literally did nothing for me. Am I the only one??!?!?!?!?!?

Where does it happen exactly? At the end of the game it freezes before the highlights and it happened when going to the manage highlight screens. Never happened before the last patch.


It would be much easier to live with if it did not happen at the end of the friggin game.

The game doesn't freeze..but after every game is completed it says "Autosaving Game Process" and it says that forever. The game saves what happens but it's quite annoying to have to reset, also with how long the "Please Wait" screen takes..I know turning off Autosave is an option, but sometimes I forget, and should I REALLY have to even do that?

Note: It was working fine before the latest title update.

.Where does it happen exactly? About 50-60% of the time after I play the game and try to exit back to the dynasty menu, it freezes in the loading screen. You know when it happens because there's no music playing and it freezes (even though the loading icon is rotating); I've waited over an hour, nothing, so I end up having to shut the console off

This to a "T". Figure your crap out EA. The only thing that is wrong with this game is the fact that you don't know how to freaking let it run efficiently.

Jesus I miss the days where there was competition... that way I could buy 2K instead.

I seem to be having a different sort of freezing issue. I am reading that most of you guys have freezing during or after the game when trying to upload stats. I haven't yet experienced any of that. My issue is that my current user opponent and I can't even get past jersey/playbook selection screen during an online dynasty match. The game freezes while showing that both teams are 'ready'. I always have to quit the game from the PS menu and start all over again. We have tried many things, me invite him, him invite me, waiting 5 minutes before setting to ready, no custom playbooks, nothing works. We both have played other users no problems as well as checking our ps3 network settings. Any advice would be awesome since this is a conference title game. I don't want to continue holding up our dynasty and would hate to simulate the game.

Off-line Dynasty

Any game track cutscene, half-time cutscene, end game cut-scene.

It was like this in the beginning, then there was a patch that fixed it...and now the current patch un-fixed it.

Good decision! I picked up a used copy after reading about the patch and then reviewing Fist's slider thread about fixing the DB glitch. I'm sorry I did. I've had three in-game freezes out of seven games I've played off-line Utah State dynasty. One occured with 4 minutes remaining in the last quarter of a 14-14 game, another happened with 16 seconds left in a blow-out and the third after challenging a playcall, the next thing on the screen was a blocky-looking background scene from the intro, frozen in-time.

I've played for years and though I've had my share of funky plays, until now I've always been able to complete games. Stupid me, I thought this stuff was fixed! EA is treading water!

Where does it happen exactly? I'm OC in my offline dynasty. It will go through pregame intro then regardless on how coin toss goes. It will freeze as soon as I press X to sim until I'm on the field.

How does a game get worse with the patches? I’ve just tried to play a game twice and the game froze up at a different points each time but allways when the highlight comes on. The game freezes up some many times in offline dynasty that’s its unplayable. How about this for a patch take out the highlights.

Happens 1 out of every 6 games for me or so. Last night, Played the game, froze doing Player of the Game. Today, went back and got through the game, showed me one picture then just cut to black. Sick of it.

I get this quite a bit too. I can't understand after a couple patches, my freezing problems got worse? Things weren't so bad after the first (or was it second) patch. Now I'm happy if the game doesn't freeze if I didn't skip a cut scene.

Speak of the devil, just had it freeze on play of the game. I've never had any freezing problems with any other games on my 360 that are close to this bad.
