    Hi All

    Have been playing BF3 and am at "Between A Rock and Hardplace"

    Went to play it yesterday and Xbox turns on, Loads Game and can select campaign, load game

    But it starts to load and then just stops, I can hear a definite noise reduction from the Xbox

    Some people are saying this is BF3 Bug

    I do not have RROD

    Any ideas?

    See if other games work, if there is freezing then RRoD is most likely on the way.

    If you find the problem is just with Battlefield 3, try clearing the system cache

    I don't play the campaign much at all, but multiplayer does freeze quite often. I just turn off the console and let it rest for a bit and it works fine again untill the next freeze. This only happens on BF3, the other games the kids play Seem to work fine, and Skyrim gets low frame rates at certain times in the game, but struggles on.

    Hope this its of help.

    Had this happen to me this morning.
    Start a multi player game and I just get a black screen. The only way out of it is to dashboard the xbox and start again which means going through the ****ty booth up for battlefield.

    This game used to be so good (battlefield2) they have made a complete balls of the new one.

    Have you installed it to the hard drive? If you have, uninstall it, then clear the system cache, and load the game and check if it stutters again. Then if not quit to the dashboard and install BF3 to the HDD.

    Have you installed the optional texture pack?
