Xbox Lockups Troubleshooting

[legacy-GDMFL68]

I experience a bunch of lockups of Loading screens. Through a bunch of XBLive playing and a few systemlink games, I think I found the "LINK".

Whenever I am playing with a bunch of people, no one changes character or weapons everything is fine, loads the next level correctly.

Whenever someone changes a weapon or changes character, the next loading screen will ALWAYS LOCKUP!!!

I have replaced my DVD Laser already, and no luck. It's not hardware! There is a DEFINATE link between people changing weapons/characters and system LOCKUPS.

This also happened to me with the Demo disc, I just assumed it was due to being a demo.

PS: Also, It is very annoying when a XBLive game ends and you get dumped back to the main menu.

One last thing, It is also very annoying when my Xbox locks up and requires a reboot. When you go right into Xbox Live, Friends, Join game: UC2 does not recognize the Active profile. Requiring me to press back, which takes me back 5 screens to the main menu. (Usualy resulting in the game being full).


Just my 2 cents, hopefully if you have lockups, this theory will become apparent as well.

I have expirenced them,but they dont happen very often. I would say that its not a problem for me.

Normally it's when I respawn as someone joins not when people change charaters or weapons. But this morning IDK wtf it is. I've just been freezing not even locking up. I'll be playing along fine then the game will just freeze until I power off my XBOX. I hope this gets fixed soon I really love this game...when it works :/

I bought this game on day 1 and have been having a blast. However, over the weekend I began to experience these same problems. I was about to get first place in a very good and close deathmatch game I was in, and as I was making the final swing of malcolm's staff, everything froze. It reminded me of the hoplessness of the black screen of death from the dreamcast version of the original Phantasy Star Online.
It happened a second time when I was playing Lauryn's tourny mode to unlock brock, and a third time during the fourth challenge mission.
And my xbox is brand new because my old one busted (lasted me 3 good solid years though). I'm hoping it's possible to patch this up.

I've owned this game since tuesday morning and have no idea what everyone is talking about.

I know what you guys are talking about relating to people joining and the end of the game, apparently everyone "lags" a little on each. I, myself, have not had an issue locking up on joins or "end of games".

I haven't played for a day or two but I hope there is some sort of quick fix for these issues
