Forum:Red Rock Canyon freezing

I'm playing on the PS3, and every time I go to Red Rock Canyon, the game freezes. I cannot move or anything. The rest of the game world is totally fine, but I cannot advance Oh My Papa, Cry Me a River, and For the Republic, Part 2 because of this freeze. I have to take the disk out of my PS3 and put it back in to reload the game. What can be done? Thank you. Bldudas 13:19, October 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * When you say freezes, do you mean you just walk into Red Rock Canyon and everything stops instantly or is there an extreme amount of slowdown before hand? The latter can sometimes be fixed by patiently saving(during the slowdown, use another save slot just in case), shutting down the PS3 then restarting it and reloading that save, The former is more indicative of something seriously wrong with your game and might be impossible to fix. I know this because I've had it happen to me because I used a specific way to deal with Benny(which the game apparently didn't like) and from then on the Tops Casino's main floor would simply lock-up the console and leave me unable to exit so I was forced to load an older save and use a different solution with Benny.

I walk into Red Rock Canyon and there is an extreme amount of slowdown before everything just stops. Sometimes I can get halfway through before the slowdown starts. Thank you. Bldudas 18:45, October 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Then you should try saving during the slowdown, shut off the PS3 then restart and reload. This should hopefully clear things up. Dr. Lobotomy 00:09, October 15, 2011 (UTC)

I did just that, and it worked. Thank you. Bldudas 00:54, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
