Splinter Cell: Conviction freezing issue now resolved

The Lost Gamer writes:

The highly anticipated launch of Splinter Cell: Conviction across North America was initially hampered by a bug that was reportedly causing the game to freeze during the second level of the story campaign by fans. The good news however, is that Microsoft have now confirmed that the issue is fixed.

a bug and a fix all before i got my copy unwrapped. Amazing how fast things are these days.

Raf1k15881d ago

If only every issue was fixed this quick.

LEGENDARY PELON5881d ago (Edited 5881d ago )

Sucks that ps3 fangirls!

No patches nor updates needed, Microsoft does it all for us! Unlike your ps3 games get like 20+ patches in the first week of release!

Its sad really!

Just heard about it and it was fixed. Pretty fast.

codehorizon5881d ago

i guess SC:C has sold well enough so far to warrant Ubisoft to get some good speed to issue a patch that fast!

Bathyj5881d ago (Edited 5881d ago )

Or maybe their just doing their job.

I like the game too, but no need to suger coat it.

I just dont like the mentality of people acting like they are doing us a favour when its expected and the least they can do. Plus, its likey a M$ problem, not an Ubi one. I guess we might find out more soon.

But yes, its good it all happened so quick, I dont even get the game til tomorrow.

PS
How can they fix something like this without a patch?
Is it some sort of stealth system update?
Very fitting, given the game, if so.
One more sleep.

va_bank5881d ago

That just means that the problem was on server side, not in the game. Either on XBL or whatever UBISoft uses on their end.

MGRogue20175881d ago (Edited 5881d ago )

The freezing had something to do with the game's connectivity to the internet.. I think. :)

There is no way Ubisoft can fix a problem within the game without releasing an update of some sort.

The issue was probably the game having problems uploading your game stats to SC: Conviction's website or something.. & they've now fixed it.

xaviertooth5881d ago

why whenever i read the word "stats" halo wars always comes up in my mind? its weird.

Nothing wrong with more games. As someone who just fundamentally hates xbox, I am pretty jelly that xbox gamers get real BC.

Finally ninja gaiden 2 is BC, I've been waiting on this since they announced BC.

Bane352591d ago (Edited 2591d ago )

Yeah i thought ninja gaiden was gonna get remaster because it wasnt announced for backwards compatible til just now tho i would've been up for joy if they announced max payne 3 for backwards compatible today instead

hiawa232591d ago

I am so wanting MP3 on BC and X1X enhanced

Bane352591d ago (Edited 2591d ago )

@hiawa23 i think R* has plans to remaster MP3 at this point

Z5012591d ago

You couldn't play your copy of NG2 before this announcement?

Bane352591d ago (Edited 2591d ago )

No it just became backwards compatible today

Movefasta19932591d ago

not everybody still has their 360, that's why

Z5012590d ago

Kept your game, but no console to play it on?
No one sells 360's anymore?

bluebenjamin2591d ago

Ninja Gaiden 2 is the main game I wanted bcthen alone one x enchanced is this game is more fun than bloodborne

Gwiz2591d ago

No contest,souls games are overhyped for difficulty.

bluebenjamin2591d ago

Very overhyped just because of difficulty not because of fun

2591d ago
Movefasta19932591d ago

facts, once you beat a souls game and do ng plus, you have the game downloaded. Once you return to ng1 and 2 you still can get your ass handed to you lol, the regular enemies are a threat, still attacking even when they are on the ground dismembered.

Gaming4Life19812590d ago

Agreed dark souls, bloodborne, and sekiro are overhyped games and dont compare to ninja gaiden 1 & , ninja gaiden 3 sucks.

What does BB have to do with NG2?
Why not insert Contra Shattered Soldier while you're at it.

bluebenjamin2591d ago

Ninja gaiden was once considered one of the hardest games ninja gaiden 2 has rpg elements so does bloodborn they have similar combat but ninja gaiden 2 just looks better doing it plus its fast pace and flashy combos removing limbs of foes remember 360 put more enemies on screen than ps3 on this game 360 had more dismemberment of limbs than the ps3 vs.360 had a better gpu but ps3 still to this day has an awesome cpu the ps3 had the prettiest ninja gaiden because of native 720 p while 360 pushed 640p now the one X has both higher rez and 360 style dismemberment But Ok for you contra ps2 version and nes

Movefasta19932591d ago

I do think ninja gaiden 1 and 2 are better than souls games, but they aren't even comparable

Z5012590d ago

Again. Why'd you pick BB?
Ninja Gaiden has ninja dog mode = easy
NG2 has a jump and block button
BB has none of those.

You could've picked a Devil May Cry or Bayonetta game. They're more similar to NG2 than BB.

What does PS3 have to do with this announcement? Your insecurities are showing.

Gaming4Life19812590d ago

I think they are being compared because of difficulty but I dont even think that is comparable imo. Ninja gaiden games are better though that's just facts.

Hungryalpaca2590d ago

And Forza is Better than MARIO Kart!!!!!

See how stupid that sounds?

bluebenjamin2590d ago

No Mario Kart is the best racer ever almost anyone can play

timotim2591d ago (Edited 2591d ago )

Amazing news! NG2!?!? Three Splinter Cell games!!! Fable 2&3 (the first is already enhanced)!!! This is what separates Microsoft's version of BC from others...its that they enhance both the performance and visual quality of these titles to keep them current in a lot of cases, instead of playing them exactly how they played and performed back in the day. Whats even better...I don't need to do ANYTHING but download the new patch...amazing.👏

Keep it coming Xbox!

Are the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for July 2018 any good?

Neil writes: "Every single month we hear the same old thing about the Xbox Games With Gold titles. "We don't want that rubbish - we want decent games, we want AAA blockbusters, we want something different". Well, the free Xbox 360 and Xbox One titles being given away during the month of July pretty much tick those boxes. What's the chances there will still be complaints?"

Tom clancy and virtua fighter are great death sqaured is pretty cool idk about assualt

lxeasy2880d ago

Splinter cell conviction is great, vf 5 is fun. Haven't played the other two so I'm excited to try them out.

ApexWolf222880d ago

Great month for 360 titles, X1 titles remind me of early days when all they gave away were indies, I hope they dont start doing that again.

AG1002880d ago

at least you can play the 360 games on xb1 too lol

Goldby2880d ago

Now that there's gamepass, expect bugger AAA to have priority in that, more money for both the dev and Ms more likely

yomfweeee2880d ago

I though Plus was lackluster this month. Gold is way worse.

BQ322880d ago

Vf5 fs is the best fighting game of all time abd backwards compatible, so it is a huge win in my book.

annoyedgamer2880d ago

No these are pretty awful. Virtua Fighter is great and so is Splinter Cell but those are 360 titles.

lxeasy2880d ago

so what if there 360 titles it's still awesome

A new Tom Clancy adventure can be enjoyed on Xbox One due to Back Compat – Is it worth the return?

Carlos writes: "Xbox Backwards Compatibility has shown a strong start to 2018 with a number of top titles being made available to play on Xbox One, but whilst this week doesn’t bring quite as many new arrivals as the past few weeks, there is still one addition for us to get stuck into once more... and it’s one that’s sure to prove a popular addition."

TheRealHeisenberg3020d ago

No confusion at all. Just another game added to the list if anyone gets nostalgic.

Vectrexer3020d ago

Are we confused? We get games that we've been enjoyed before at no cost to us!

C-H-E-F3020d ago

"new"? an "old" Tom Clancy Adventure can be enjoyed on xbox one due to back capat is worth the return"
