Mine maybe froze once since I had it about a month. It does stutter sometimes which is weird, like it looks like it freezes for like 10-15 seconds but then unlocks itself. I also noticed that the PS3 fan runs LOUD AS HELL when I play this game.

Yes it froze a few times on me. It froze on me during singleplayer and multiplayer. Rarely on singpleayer and typically on multiplayer.

Are you all using mics? If so, unplug them. I know it sounds stupid but I was on another website and people said if you unplug your headset, it'll stop the freezing. I used to have major freezing issues( atleast every 2min), but since I disconnected my headset I haven't had any issues.

Personally, I don't have a mic. I hope your advice is going to be useful for those who have one though.

I am in the same boat.... IF me and my wife are playing on the same server then disconnects in 10 mins. Other wise I seem to hard freeze in the game when playing online in about a half hour. I rented the game and planned on buying but this lock up is turing me off...

It has froze 3 times since I have played it and I have logged 23 hrs in online. Can be annoying, but is shold not deter you from buying the game. It is a lot of fun.

It started freezing on me a bit a few days ago. But that doesn't kill my pleasure in killing others. XD I'll just turn my PS3 on again and carry on.

Okay I Think I've Figured Out A Solution For Those Of You That Don't Wan't To Reset Your PS3/360 Every Time It Locks Up, Next Time It Happens Eject The Disk And Remove It From The Tray, Then Try To Access The Dashboard/ In Game XMB, If It Works It Should 1). Bring You Back To The Main System Menu (XMB,Etc.) Or 2). The In-Game Menu.

Sorry for my english.. I'm french.. I play to it since almost 1 year, this is my best game. But I got some frustration with this game, still frozing often. Many time a day. This is happen if I play alone or online. I have to reboot the system fk every time. They should do something for it, this is not a problem which come last day... It is from the beginning of the game.

That is one of a number of things that can happen when trying to force games above the native resolution. Also if media shareing in on in the PS3 XMB menu can cause problems. Then another problem could be the servers or the NAT connection (NAT3 can cause problems with mics while NAT2 doesn't have problems with mics). There are other things that can cause problems.

Well I havn't played since the 3.0 firmware update but it never froze, now Mercenaries 2 that's a whole nother story. It really shouldn't surprise anyone that an EA game doesn't run smooth and kinda reinforces the rumors of poor code by EA preventing cross game chat update, oh well. You could try deleting your install and reinstall to see if that helps it any.

ugh yeah, this game started freezing on me each time i played... ive been off of it since half way through the summer. A shame too, I went to fully rank up, i was really enjoying this game. Here's to hoping they support the servers in the next game (lilbigplanet has a similar issue with me, restarts my ps3 each time i try to exit - and yeah i know you need to wait until the harddrive is not running, but it's alllllways running..)
