Saint Jericho Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 So I am just now getting around to playing this game, even though I got it on the release date. I had other games to finish, so I held off on starting this one. I heard about all the problems people were having with this game, so I intentionally waited a while for that reason too. Since it's been more than a couple months, I figured Bethesda woulda fixed the problem. When I popped in the disc, it did a 8MB title update. Despite that, I have been playing this game for about 5 or 6 hours, and it has frozen up on me 3 times!!! Is it still doing this for anyone else, or am I just the lucky SOB??? On a random note: Anyone notice that the Brotherhood of Steel's initials are just Son of a B***h initials backwards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeatherbottomMR Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 just save often if you are freezing up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malkaiah Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I had EXACTLY this problem, installed to HDD with title update, then it kept freezing on area transitions. I uninstalled it and the problem went away. My theory? The game basically expected itself to take longer when loading a new area (which it does when not installed) and the patch just makes the game unable to cope with loading so quickly. Then again, I had a crashing issue myself, when doing the final battle on the Legion side, a couple of rooms before the finale it would keep crashing at the same moment, regardless of how I went about it. Installing the game solved that problem, but then brought about the transition crashes. Now I've uninstalled it and it's working fine again, went all the way through a 4th playthrough and both DLCs without a single crash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The weird thing is for me though, only 1 of the freezes occurred at a transitional area. The other two occured when i was just walking around Goodsprings. I got lucky though, cuz after the last freeze i just took a break, came back to it an hour or so later, and didn't have any problems the rest of the night!

Nolifegrimmjow Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I had the same problem. I noticed it anytime my graphics were lagging a bit. I upgraded to the xbox 360 slim and I haven't noticed the problem since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeTroll Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I had sme freezing issues on my first playthrough, then after finishing I left the game alone for a bit, so wanted to grind more chievos and started a new game, new 250 gig hd so decided to install the game since I had time to, now it freezes like crazy, seemed odd to me... guess I'll stick with playing from disc only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
