Loading Screen locks at Swiftperch since update

[Jediman]

So.. this thread got moved to technical support.... but didn't bother to describe any possible solution. Are they trying to tell me this isn't a bug and is some how something I'm doing? << Cause I can't imagine doing more than reformating my entire ps3, reloading the software.. like I attempted to do. Actually tried that twice... however I can't reinstall the update, as I mentioned.

you can always buy a new hard drive see if thats the problem.

I could undo the upgrade and put in my stock hard drive.... but it just doesn't make sense that it would be the problem, as there was no problem UNTIL redownloading this patch. I even downloaded other games, FFX HD, which is 23 gb of data... without issue.

I've been having this issue (more or less) as well. It started with me, actually, a couple of days ago when I first traveled to Limsa Lominsa. At first everything was fine (post-patch) and i was running around, doing quests and whatnot, when my entire PS3 froze. Had to turn it off, restart it, just to encounter the same problem three more times within the hour. I figured it was installed data corruption (from a problem I had before with a different game) so I deleted everything, reinstalled the game and then had an issue with updating the patch files, same code as above. Went through the all day reformat with my PS3, reinstalled the game, tried to login and....bam. "Unable to update patch files" again.

So yeah, I'll be following this thread for some kind of answer as well.

Oh, and I have never switched hard drives. The hard that's in there is the one it was manufactured with.
