I see a lot of freezing threads, but nothing where the PS3 shuts off, so I'm making one.
It did it three times after the Uprising update ( never before ) and after the third time I deleted / re-installed everything. 20 mins later it did it again. I don't want my PS3 to brick, so I'm just going to wait for the patch..
Other than that, thanks for all your hard work. ( tell the guys that decided to range nerf all the guns to eat a **** ) |

Deleted all my mail after finishing a reinstall and 10 minutes later, PS3 turns completely OFF. Is anyone aware of this? |

Please follow the examples here and include the description of your PS3. This can help the Devs narrow or expand the search as needed. |

This is actually typical of older ps3s as the thermal paaste wears out. It may be overheating |

Just got back form an extensive cleaning, took everything apart and removed all the dust. Gonna try again and find out if it is my dust or CCP's DUST causing the problem. Just worried because this problem never happened before, only after playing the new build maybe 2-3 hours, then would happen every 30 minutes to an hour. Will update. |

Lasted 30 minutes in DUST. Tested also by leaving another game on in a similar way and no problems whatsoever. It's obviously a software problem and not a hardware one. This needs addressed. |

Just to let you guys know, it happened to me four times in Dust ( it never happened to me before ) and since then, It's happened to me playing another game.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND PLAYING THIS GAME WITH AN OLD PS3.
You might brick it like I did. ( I guess this game isn't free after all ) |

I've since tested with both disc based games and games of the HDD. Ran disk game for 1 hour+ with no shut off, and have been running HDD game for over 2 hours and counting now. Sent an email explaining in depth to support. Can anyone let us know if they are playing this build with an old ps3, backwards compatible, ect? |

I have a slim and after a play session last night I hit the ps button on contoller and selected Quit Game.
My PS3 made a loud beep like when its starting up and shut itself down for a few seconds instead of quitting the game, then rebooted.
//EDIT - a bit different than whats being discussed but hey, at least its in the same ballpark |

maybe the graphics is proving too difficult for the PS3 to run properly. |

This is a VERY common problem with the older "fat" ps3. It is called the yellow light of death (YLOD), because you will notice when it shuts off the normally green light is flashing yellow. What happens is the thermal paste on the cpu deteriorates and does not transfer heat causing a overheating event which separates the cpu from the mother board. It is not caused by Dust 514, it has probably happened because your ps3 did not get much use but now extended on hours of playing dust has cause the known problem with the ps3 to act up. There are repairs for this concern but in my experiences once it ylod's the repair is only temporary. |

Hello. I have a very basic 40 gig ps3 fat body. I am noticing over heating much more now. Minehas not shut off yet. Thank goodness. I keep my room cold to prevent over heating. But I've notice a pattern when overheating. When I'm in the skill tree menu and am sitting in merc quarters and sometimes in a match. But goes away as soon as I go to black screen loading back into merc quarters. But if Ido sit in merc quaters too long or spend a lot of time in skill tree menu it flips out and the fan turns on. Its never did it in any builds before. I do believe its just our old ps3s that can't handle dust 514. |

Ya, mine did that too.. until it dies. If you think the game is worth taking the chance, that's cool. |

For the 10th time it isn't YLOD I got it 2 years ago, fixed it and hasnt happened since. It could be the heat sink however, and just hasnt yet YLOD on me, just overheats and shuts down the ps3, bc it turns back on normally after it shuts off. I'm gonna open this bad boy up and apply some more thermal paste, if that doesnt work it 100% has to so with the software of CCp's new build. Also, I never turn this thing off, so it has nothing to do with not using it. |
