PS3 NHL 2015 freezes

i paid $69.99 for a game the freezes every time I play live the life mode. Wheres the patch and why is it taking this long? I see a lot people with the same issue and theres no solution? Is the way to treat the people who bring you sales? I'm not a happy camper and I feel like throwing the disk out the window this is soo frustrating!

    Have you already tried to reset your console: 

    1. Turn off Playstation 3.

    2. Hold The power button down; The system will turn on and turn off once again.

    3. Once the System has been shutdown, re-press you finger until you hear 2 consecutive beeps

    4. When you hear the 2 beeps take finger off power button.

    5. You will be prompted to plug in your controller via usb and then hit the PS button

    6. The Recovery menu will pop up.

    7. Select Restore File System.

    This will delete any corrupt files off of your system. It won't delete any game data. 

    Cheers

    This is actually a known issue, which I posted about last year:

    http://answers.ea.com/t5/NHL-15/Live-The-Life-consistently-freezing-Xbox360/td-p/3580525

    I am very surprised to see this EA guy actually posting a reply, since he ignored my original thread when it was one of the hottest on the first page.

    I am also surprised to see this EA guy NOT informing you that this issue is a known one. Probably because they do not plan on fixing it, so they want you to just clear your cache and keep starting over until NHL16 comes out

    Hello!
    When i am playing the carrier mode "Live the Life" i am always get stuck after around 20 matches in OHL.
    During my first save it happen after 20 matches..
    So i thought it only was a bugg that i could not play in London Knights so i started a new "Live the Life" with Oshawa Generals.
    This time the exactly same thing happens after 23 matches. When it comes to day 27 november the whole console just freezes, sometimes i can turn off my ps3 as regular with the remote but sometimes i must turn it off by holding in the power button.
    This is so sad because i really love the new mode "Live the Life", how you get interviewed and you get to upgrade your player in what you want, but as i said it is so sad because i cannot get further than 20 games in OHL.

    Any advice?

    Best wishes

  • I have a new to me PS3.  I have been troubleshooting an issue where I freeze in Live the Life and EASHL between setup and ice during the EA Sports logo swooshing screen right before the ice scenes load.  It is not a regular connectivity issue because I can do other things online in the game and I can also play COD online.  I was wanting to know if anyone has had this issue and if you were able to resolve it.

    Notes: 

    I have a wired connection and it works just fine.

    This is the only game I have issue with and only in the particular modes I have stated above.

    Unplugging the system and rebooting does not fix the issue.

    Any help would be appreicated

    I don't know how many times I have done this 100 times, and make it just a little further when I do it, but still freezes. I was told upgrading to a PS4, would definitely take care of the problem. This is bs, and no way to treat loyal fans of EA sports games.
