Freezing at the Steaming Sheep Restaurant in Port Bastok for PS2/PS3 users

[Kayri]

Any NPC inside or right outside the Steaming Sheep Restaurant in Port Bastok seems to freeze PS2/PS3 users ever since the major update in Dec. 2010. Most NPCs I wouldn't care about but Flaco is the reputation NPC that I get frustrated if I get frozen since I would like to know my level of reputation. I'm forced to reboot over and over until it finally lets the dialog run through without freezing.

This issue has been reported over and over and over, ad nauseum, ad infinitum. I contacted SE and received the response below. SE is ignoring PS2 and PS3 players who have had to deal with these problems for a very long time. They MIGHT ask you to provide information regarding platform ISP, ISP speed etc. Don't bother. They have no intention of doing anything, just hoping we go away.
