Yeah i'll probably stay up for the psn update. One thing i have to say about Sony is they take their sweet ass time updating though. Got the game today and its great. Just pray we get the patch for the lockup bugs/savefile problems before it happens to me. GO VANGUARD!

Well that is a kick in the dick. Not to mention this week's update sucked again besides maybe Mega Man 2 on the PS1 Imports.

I wouldn't wait for a store update. PSN updates and patches have different schedules, its posible to have patches released at any time, not just when the store is updated.



Anyone has heard anything new from Bioware? Do you know if the patch was even sent?

Does someone experienced some "quick" freezes(quick because it gets back to normal after some seconds) on the Firewalker - Survey Sites Located assingment?

Is it because the DLC is buggy or i should get worried?

Someone said that is not the time you play that causes the game to freeze but the amount of missions you do, is it true?

I didn't experience any problems with the Firewalker missions so I don't think DLC is buggy, I guess its just luck of the draw.

I've played Mass Effect 2 for about 2-3 hours so far, I'm not risking putting anymore time into the game until the patch is out. Fingers crossed we won't have to wait too much longer for the patch to get released, its good that bioware told us a fix is on the way.

That happened to me on the Shadow Broker mission.  I almost crapped myself when it happened, but then it started right back up again. 
To answer your other question about freezes and the amount of missions, this is from their game support.


Question:

What should I do if I can't load my Mass Effect 2 savegame on PS3?



Answer:

Bioware is aware of this issue impacting some users and is currently investigating.
In the meantime it is recommended that gamers save often and take
periodic breaks to restart the game every few hours, as the issue seems
to be impacting folks who progress several levels in a single gaming
session lasting multiple hours.

Please keep in mind that there was never any verification that the patch was actually delivered, it was just an expected date. Theyd be calming alot of people down though if they just took 5 minutes of their time to give us a quick update<_<

WHAT!?!  Please point me to where someone in the know says that.

I just went to play.  I hit resume and a Bioware screen came up and asked me to accept an update.  I did, but the game loaded as usual.  There's no way a patch coupld have been downloaded in that time.  Anyone else have any word on this?

I don't think this is true no one from Bioware ever said this and it is usually not how patches work.

Bit curious as to why Bioware has still yet to post this week on the issue.  If the patch didn't get through testing, please at least let us know.  As of now, we don't know what's going on and it's killing us.

Well this was in the first post from bioware that I think you're talking about:
"We’re currently testing the patch thoroughly, we expect to be finished
our quality passes on Friday.  This patch is then being delivered to
Sony ASAP for verification and distribution. We will announce as soon
the patch is available."

In no way did they say it was for sure gonna be finished, just that they expected to be done by friday and then they would send it to sony.  So all this silence from the company is making people a little on edge cause they stopped playing and want to play.   I think people just want an update is all.

I am all for them taking their time to get it done RIGHT, not something halfassed.  And for all we know they could be done with it and it's in Sony's hands and it's just getting finished up.  We just don't know and the unknown tends to make people more nervous.
Anyway i'm still playing, just taking their advice and playing a little and then backing up my save on an external HD, then start up again.  So far so good, just had a little scare with that 6 second screen freeze.
