PVZ PS3 keeps freezing
hello, this happens alot! and is getting more frequent. i load the game click on the game type and its searching for ages .... then it freezes the whole Ps3 causing me to switch it off and on. It ...
Yes, on Garden Ops, and many times on G&G.
Though, it's been months since I don't complete a garden ops, and not because we die or anything: because it throws me away from the server, and yes, it throws me out from the game and my friends stay at the same session sometimes: some other days, like today, it throws away 2 or 3 persons, staying maybe 1 person at the session (the host maybe, if there is?).
As I also say, this doesnt happen with the rest of online games I play at the same console.
Also, today the Walnut hill bug at G&G happened to me 3 times in a row, and I just desisted.
Could you place a token at my user id to check error logs or else?? It's just incredible that your QAs are not being able to reproduce the bug, when it happens to me almost every day I play:
As a user, I just want to be able to join a G&G session on Walnut Hills, without having to reset my PS3 from the system button when it gets frozen on the loading window.
- My client is installed at the console, I downloaded it from the PSStore.
- My level is 149 and I have 1.800.000 credits to spend.
- My PS3 is a slim 200GB version, from 2 years ago + or -.
- I play with headset, 'Tritton' brand.
-The bug only happens on joining a G&G session: if Walnut Hills comes later on the session, it loads perfectly.
-You can guess the bug happened when the loading white flower icon stops moving.
Thanks
If just you is being removed or everyone but the host, it sounds like connection problems. Might want to yours/their NAT settings and what not, although that would not be related to the freezing.
All progression is server side, so you could even take your account to another PS3 and have all your customizations, characters, coins, etc.
If you're able to get the Wallnut Hills crash multiple times in a row, you're probably trying to join the same server again and again. Try another mode for 15-20 minutes then go back to it.
I reinstalled the client, and the problem is still there.
However, Overclockd, I repeat it: the walnut Hills bug is not happening when I'm already in any session: if Walnut Hills comes before I join another G&G map, this NEVER happens: the load is fine and I can play the map always. It's just when I want to join, without having played any previous session. And it makes me have to turn off the whole system, without having played a single second.
This bug happens 90% of the times I join walnut hills, and as there are 4 maps, it's 22'5% times I want to play this mode. And normally, it's the best mode: Suburbination, Gnome bomb etc are always empty.
At this moment, I just ask for a 'Cancel Button' on map loading, because today I tried three times, at different hours (so, not joining the same session), and happened again. And, be sure, I will ALWAYS hit that Cancel button on Walnut Hills. By the way, it's even the worst map on G&G: quite hard to defend by the plants, too easy for the zombies.
And, on the Garden Ops issue, I simply don't play them anymore.
On the other side, the Mega-Flower Map design is awesome. And the bug never happens on that one, neither on the Golf Field or the Cucumber rocket (I'm sorry I don't know the exact names: my client is in spanish).
Four times now.
In half an hour I'll try the fifth
Honestly, I don't think it's connection issues, I think it's just that this game is another game meant for the newer generation of consoles. I go through the same freezing when trying to Load G&G, But it only happens like 1/3 games except for every game like yours does. The game has lots of issues with it already even when you do get into a game; examples being falling through the ground, getting shot by invisible players, and having to have the terrain around you load by standing still for a couple of seconds. This all can easily be put in sync by dying once or twice, But I still find this unnecessary to do just to play a game enjoyably. Another huge issue with playing G&G is that the frame issues are insane at some points of game play. Most of the time when you spawn you are running at around 30-35 FPS, but when you get on the capture point My PS3 turns into a Microsoft power point presentation, In other words around 12-18 FPS. It makes the game almost unplayable and honestly, I don't want to sound like negative Nancy here. But I think EA + Popcap made a big misleading gimmic on selling this on Xbox 360 + PS3, It's kind of ridiculous. Now, I'm not shaming on the developers here, just there decisions. I know there is other game modes that are playable, still running at around 25-30 fps, but in the secondary game modes you only receive 2000-2500 coins per game! Compared to 10,000 - 15,000 in G&G! That's a HUGE Letdown too. Overall, Game is awesome, just not on PS3 / XBOX 360. R.I.P Dave's Mansion
this game is the crappiest game i ever had. It crashes my ps3 all the time and i am connected wired. All the games are alright except for this one. I want a refund. I should have bought a physical disc so I can trade it in for a better game. This issue was never solved and now its worst in Ps4.
