Gears of war loading problems....


Recommended Posts

Hey guys and gals, like almost everyone who owns an xbox 360 i purchased Gears of war (brilliant game btw) and every now and then when im playing the textures dont load, or if they do it takes a while....

and even sometimes im playing a level and the game doesnt load for instance i kill a whole bunch of people and proceed to next bit and none of the landscape or AI loads and i have to load from last checkpoint and start all over again...it doesnt do this with any other games just gears of war?

any ideas? :(

well I did the whole game in co-op with my friend on his december 2005 xbox360 and absolutely no problem at all with the game. In fact we finished it several times even in insane. Does your 360 up to date? Only have to connect one time to xbox live to get latest updates but I doubt it's related anyway, but a possibility. Maybe an issue with the copy of the game itself that you bought, try another one or even verify by renting the game and try this copy to quickly locate this problem exactly and be 100% sure when going back to store for an exchange.

Do you have a hard drive? If you don't it could be that but everyone's copy of Gears has long texture loading. Mine for example load a second or two after every match or every cut scene.

I went for a wile with no probem (Beat single player on casual and hardcore). After a wile of playing multiplayer I started have same problem... THIS WILL CLEAR YOUR HARD DRIVE CASHE.just go to your memeory section(under system in dashboard) highlight your hd hit y once it goes to the next screen hit x,x,lb,rb,x,x it will say you will ask you if your sure you want to clear hd cache just hit okay.

sometimes my textures take a while to load but once they are loaded I have no problems, I just assumed it was the game engine streaming the data and not working quick enough at the start of the level, maybe ur disc needs cleaning or something!
