Marque Cross: before the update it was like 1-2 times every 2-3 weeks
Marque Cross: I kept putting in help tickets and posting stuff on their forums but they failed to give me a definite answer
Marque Cross: I even did their supposed steps to fix the problem
Garrett H.: Okay, Restoring the data base will not help We will need to delete the game and redownload it, it could be that the update corrupted.
Garrett H.: What all have you tried?
Marque Cross: Ethernet cord directly to the port, port forwarding, Had my provider comeout and redo everything after they heard about this
Garrett H.: Okay, please Shut down the system.
Marque Cross: shutting down

Garrett H.: You deleted the Game data out of the Game data utility and the update correct?
Marque Cross: yes i did
Garrett H.: And yes you are the first case of this issue.
Garrett H.: I have not heard of it at all.
Marque Cross: All I can say is go to the DUST 514 forums
Marque Cross: but ready for the next step
Garrett H.: Please shut the system down.
Marque Cross: shutting down
Marque Cross: the system is off
Garrett H.: With the PS3 off (power light should be red), touch and hold the Power button, you will then hear the 1st beep indicating that the PS3 is powering on.

Continue to hold and after approximately 5 seconds you will hear a 2nd beep, indicating video reset. Continue to hold and after about 5 more seconds you will hear 3rd beep, and system will power off (Power light goes red). Then release power button.
Garrett H.: Let me know when you have held the power button for the 3 beeps and when it is back to the solid red light.
Marque Cross: so going into safe mode
Garrett H.: Yes please.
Marque Cross: did the 3 beeps
Garrett H.: Now, touch and hold the Power button, you will hear the 1st beep, again for PS3 power on.

Continue to hold and after approximately 5 seconds you will hear the 2nd beep for video reset. Continue to hold and after 5 seconds you will hear a quick double beep. At that point release power button.

Let me know when you have done so.
Marque Cross: there
Garrett H.: Please select Option 3 (Restore File System). This will not delete any saved data but will search for files to repair. Please select GÇÿYesGÇÖ and press GÇÿXGÇÖ to continue.
Marque Cross: in the process

Marque Cross: done
Garrett H.: Now you will just need to redownload the game and the update.
Garrett H.: That should resolve the issue.
Marque Cross: game is redownloading
Marque Cross: do you think it could be do to bad data from the old update?
Garrett H.: That would cause an issue like this so we deleted it completely and your starting over with the updates and game data, all of your progress is untouched though.

Bhavesh Prajapat Doomslaying Democratic League 13	Posted - 2013.07.04 19:51:00 - [1] - Quote Found the way to fix this issue Rebuild the PS3 database - 1. hold the power button until it turns off 2. and again 3. and again, this time let go when you hear two consective beeps (beep(on), beep(video hdmi) {pause} beep beep (LET GO NOW)) Rebuild the database. On occasion it may say that software failed to start - just restart once if it doesn't restart after that follow on screen instructions Hope I helped(first), Bhavesh

Answer: It will remove messages received and sent. Any playlists you have set up. If you organize your games/videos/music/photos into albums or as I like to call them GÇ£foldersGÇ¥ you will have to set that up again. Question: Will this delete any game saves or game data on my PS3? Answer: No Question: Will this delete any of my games, photos, music or videos? Answer: No Question: Will this remove or effect my trophies in any way? Answer: No Question: Will this work on any PS3 Console? Answer: Yes all PS3GÇ¦s have this recovery menu. Question: Will this damage my PS3? Answer: Not at all Question: What about my other accounts on the PS3? Answer: You will not have to re-activate the accounts on your PS3. Question: Why is my PS3 is stuck or frozen during the rebuild database? Answer: One possibility is your hard drive is failing. Make backups of everything you can now. You could also try GÇ£Restore File SystemGÇ¥ from the PS3 Safe Mode / Recovery Menu. Then try to rebuild the database again. If that still doesnGÇÖt fix your issues. Try doing a complete backup to a external hard drive and wipe your PS3 clean with the GÇ£Restore PS3 SystemGÇ¥ option. Question: What do the other options in the recovery menu do? Restart System: Restarts the PLAYSTATION-«3 System. Restore Default Settings: Reset all system settings back to default. Restore File System: Checks for corrupt/missing system files. Rebuild Database: Rebuilds the OS for the PLAYSTATION-«3. Restore PS3 System: Fresh restore; Deletes everything and starts from Scratch. System Update: Update the PLAYSTATION-«3 System [PULLED FROM http://www.ps3blog.net/2011/01/28/tips-and-tricks-ps3-rebuild-database-faq-recovery-menu/ ] Bhavesh (Reason for pull - to answer any other Q's)

Now you know my real name as a bonus That's pretty good service (as opposed to a canned response). In rare circumstances you'll need to Restore File System but this just clears the system's corrupt files a little more that Rebuild Database (which is just for network content and games.) Glad to hear you're back up and playing. Bhavesh
