Signing up as well for this "known failure".
Freezes occasionally on a 80Gb Hong Kong bought PS3 with FW 2.0.
Game disc is brand new of course and the frst 2 freezes occured during the first few hours of gameplay.

Hoping for a quick resolution (IF Ubisoft even read this) to this issue or I as well will have to return this game as my fellow PS3 owners.

(Let`s just make this thread grow like that, and make it 10, 000 post in 3 days! Maybe then Ubi spots it )(Although I don`t own the game )

Nintendo took a hit with the Wii straps; its time you took a hit for Assassins Creed. Cutt your losses Ubisoft you've lost this battle!

and yes I own a wii and ps3 =]

JUST TO CONVINCE UBI WE ARE NOT TO BE MESSED WITH!!!

MOST POSTED TOPICS ON ALL THE UBISOFT FORUMS! (without general (introduction screenshot ect.) threads)

1. Uru experimental program thread & hotel thread?
2. assassins creed official art thread
3. assassins creed pc requirements thread
4. THIS THREAD :MAD:

THIS IS PROOF THAT:
#1 ASSASSINS CREED IS almost THE BIGEST GROUP OF GAMERS ON THE FORUMS...
#2 WE HAVE THE MOST PROBLEMS ANYONE ELSE HAS EVER HAD
#3 CONSIDERING THE QUICK SPEED THIS THREAD GOT SO BIG, GET YOUR ****ING ASSES TOGETHER!

I can understand much of everybody's frustration for I am going through the same thing with this game, but I think we are overlooking the fact that Ubisoft is most likely trying their hardest to hunt down this problem we are all facing as we speak. Clear your consciences on this matter for we will not be left in the dark for long since their reputation is at risk with such a mediated title. Not because we haven't recieved news from their behalf yet, means they aren't up to date with the situation, there are posts of this matter all over the web on several game-sites so rest assured that Ubisoft is definately aware. They gave us a chance to buy it, let's give them a chance to fix it...Hating won't solve it...

The goal shouldn't be to hit a certain number of posts within a 3-day timeframe, it's to fix the problem. It's Ubisoft's forum - so they likely are reading this...

I have absolutely no problem taking this thing back - as do most of this forum's 40+ pages of members...

Firmware 2.01 is coming for PS3 within a couple days. Sony's web site promises "increased stability" - whatever that means.

If anyone from Ubisoft is reading this forum -- can you at least update us? Should we be taking these games back? Are you going to patch the problem?

I think they have removed(destroyed and burned probably) all existed documents about AC, changes their names and moved to Antarctica LoL J/K

Can someone confirm this ?

I think I just experienced the "White Screen of Death" today. I went back into a different kingdom area from Jerusalem and you know when Altair is transported into the white background before the game finally loads into the wanted area ?

Well, I was moving him around in that screen thinking that would help the game finish loading to the area but after about 4 minutes, it stopped. Then when I tried to quit the game, my console beeped and rebooted.

Looks like I DO have to return the game.

This was in Memory Block 4.

That's another problem with the game. The loading time to another area takes forever it seemed and it made me wonder when the hell it'll finally load. Sometimes it's almost immediate and other times it really kills the fun.

Of Course it is...But it isn`t OUR goal.It`s Ubi`s goal, and we can`t do anything.
OUR goal is to post the FW.That`s what this thread for....
We need to have their attention first.
Oh, and WE WANT PATCH - OR RETURN OUR MONEY:
Put this in your sig.....

yes that is one of the profuse screens of death we've all received!

Okay. I thought I was one of those lucky ones who won't experience it but I guess it was just a matter of time.

Actually, originally when the game used up about 2000 MB of storage for the game saves, that made me suspicious too and now I see why it takes so friggin' long to load.

Originally when I continued the game, it left off where I was at yesterday. Then after the WSOD (White Screen Of Death), it threw me back to a previous save. STUPID GAME !

The first post.
Here`s a copy:
We are aware that some consumers are having issues with the PS3 version of the game freezing. We are investigating this issue very seriously and will come back to you with more information as soon as possible. In the meantime, we appreciate the feedback you are providing and welcome any additional information relating to your PS3 and firmware versions as well as details of where the freeze occurs. You can report this information directly to us via the official support channels or in this thread. Please refer to your game manual for details.

The following information is helpful:

- Type of crash:

“hang” (= where the screen is totally frozen)? in this case, was there anything special displayed on screen? (text message, popup window...)

“matrix-like” freeze (where the camera can still be moved)? in this case, did you notice a white popup (tutorial box) beforehand?

- Time played since the game was launched (ie “time elapsed since player started his game session”)?

- Frequency of crashes (if recurring)?

- Firmware version : 1.94 or 2.0?

- Connected to PSN?

- Information board activated? (2.0 only)

As soon as possible means they have no idea when.
Goddamn it.

Well, at least they wrote a response(in 3 days )

the point is Ubisooft, these errors were preventable I hope your not taking our rants harshly but positively. realizing cutting corners is not a good idea especially in the market you are in. With all the prerelease hype over the past year you wouldn't want to release a buggy game!

I do love this game but cannot play it until the freezes and bugs are fixed, its too annoying to restart when you are in the heat of an assassination, it ruins everything

i had both the hang crash and matrix-type crash.matrix type crash i had 2 times.while free running,and a hang crash when i was jumping across the roof tops.it happens 1nce and then i restart my ps3 and doesn't happen again,so far anyway.my firmware version is 2.0,i am connected to PSN but i take out my ethernet cable when I'm about to play the game.and i do not have my information board activated.please do something about this bacause i do not want this to effect my playstation 3 performance in any way.Kind Regards.
