Game Freezing?

atlyoungin · 12-24-2008, 12:56 AM

Is anyone having a problem with freezing of the game?

It's happened twice on consecutive times right after halftime of a game I'm playing. I'm in Season one with the Falcons, game three, playing the Panthers.

I really love this game but it's always something happening

Happened to me a lot. Getting a new copy of the game seems to be the only fix. Don't let EA reps talk you into blaming your 360 like they did me.

It is a problem with the game. Makes it hard to play every game in a season. Game likes to freeze in the 4th quarter for me. Grr...

Have you guys tried saving the game to your hard drive? That may fix the problem as then the game wouldn't need to spin while playing.

clearing your cache definitely fixes the problem, at least for a few months. then youll have to do it again. it wont delete anything off your hard drive, but you will have to re-download any game updates youve gotten. this is assuming you are using a 360. just search clear xbox 360 cache and youll find instructions on how to do it. its easy.

Installing to the hard drive fixed my Madden, so it's possible it could fix HC as well.

Freezes are annoying...they don't happen during inopportune times for me at least though. However, I am getting irritated with the freezes from time to time.

I have a PS3 and I am wondering...is there a way to download the game to my hard drive?

Any help would be appreciated. If the only answer is to buy the game off of the Playstation network that would be absurd and a waste of $50 because I already have the game.

Cheers!

I installed my into the hardrive now it works just fine plus is a little faster. definitely do it.

I installed it on my hardrive but Im realizing my freeze only comes when I try to delete plays from my play book. And it only happens when I change coaches...

The only time it freezes on me is when I try to download option plays. It is just crazy, I have tested it many times and made sure they are different plays from different creators.
