I'm not the only person who has encountered this game-breaking bug. There are LOTS more people who are having the same issue and are most likely madder than I am.

I've managed to get 2 workarounds working, but they fail shortly after.

I'm sad and angry.

That sucks hard...

Is there no way to extract the savefile and just re-install ?

RE: The Free Thread - A Zombie Riot - 10-27-2012 12:41 PM

The problem itself seems to be tied to the gamertag and not the actual game.

Because I created another gamertag to see if it would freeze. Never did. Not once, out of 2 hours of playing. And on my main, it froze like 20 times. It's frustrating beyond belief.

RE: The Free Thread - LoneWanderer - 10-27-2012 12:42 PM

Had an idea for a superhero/horror/morbid black comedy novel. Maybe for the next Nanowrimo.

I've never heard of a gamertag causing a game to glitch... That's like saying that a nametag stuck to your chest is what's making you trip over the sidewalk.

Hope you find a solution - maybe tech support could help

DuWayne Mysojynus, the headless superhero from Downtown Iqaluit, was running through the streets in search of someone to save.
"HELP ! HELP !" came a call from an alleyway.
DuWayne ran towards the sound. Rounding the corner, he saw a man getting attacked by a three-legged dog. Using the powers he had learnt from his grimoire, he summoned all the arcane knowledge of his ancestors, wrapping himself in the aura of wisdom. He then got bored of charging up his powers and shot the dog with his 9-mil.
"Oh thank you DuWayne Mysojynus," said the bystander. "I knew I could count on-" the man stopped.
DuWayne had severed the dog's head and placed it upon his open neck.
"That's not really your style DuWayne," commented the man.
"Woof woof," replied the superhero.
And they both laughed, had many children and grew old together.
THE END


Aaaaaaand copyrighted - sorry bro

So, every night I've been playing Dance Central 3; I've been dancing (like a right tool by the way) to The Hustle on hard difficulty as a bit of a warm up before I go suck at some other one...


I still don't have a Trans-Am yet. Angry

RE: The Free Thread - LoneWanderer - 10-28-2012 06:10 AM

I've decided to pursue political science instead of journalism. I'm thinking of taking up philosophy as well. Philosophy and politics seem to go together.

In all fairness - that's the best way.

That's quite a leap - what made you change your mind ?

Mainly it was a friend. He rekindled my enjoyment of politics. I've always had a knack for it, but never really had the heart for it. I wasn't mature enough. Plus, I'd be able to provide for my future family and not have to worry about our next meal. I grew up that way, it's not what I want my children to go through.

I also enjoy burying my friends alive in a cave with no wave of escaping.

Hey this, might help you. It sounds like the same problem that one of my friends had for Gears 2. Give these threads a try. (For Gears 3 but some contain Xbox fixes)

Click me and click me

For Borderlands 2, this might help.

Sounds reasonable enough. I love me some politics
Will you be enrolling in the winter semester, or waiting until next September ?

RE: The Free Thread - LoneWanderer - 10-28-2012 09:40 AM

I'll probably wait until september. I still have a few things to take care of before my enrolling.

RE: The Free Thread - BumblebeeCody - 10-28-2012 10:25 AM

SO I went to MCM and saw ALI HILLIS (Lightning Final Fantasy/Liara Mass Effect) and COURTENAY TAYLOR (Jack Mass Effect/Ada Wong Resident Evil 6) and yeah they were signing stuff. Was awesome but there were "complications" all didn't go as I hoped T___T Still though. So close, so cool.

Oh and MCM need to get their shi- together and shorten those lines. >: (

It's a mass problem. And thousands of people are having it. It sounds stupid, but explain how I can go on my toiR eibmoZ A gamertag and play for a couple of hours and not have a freeze. Yet go on my A Zombie Riot gamertag and have it freeze within 30 seconds of the game loading.
Too lazy to edit. But I just spent about 12 hours today hanging out with a friend that I haven't hung out with in a couple of years. It was a fun time. Heck, we even watched a football game together (and that's saying something because I don't care for football). I was more sitting there letting a few cats sleep on me.

I had a fun day, at least.
