It might not happen immediately or within the next match, but it WILL freeze. It surprises me that its taken this long for a thread to be made, however this NEEDS attention.

Its happened to me twice.
Any map, vs collectors on gold, chaos ensues and then my ps3 just locks up.
I thought it might be a memory leak.

It is, you can't do multiple collector matches or else you will get a inevitable memory leak. It does need to get fixed but until then just restart your system every now and then.

Seriously.. when they introduced collector, this was my biggest fear and it became reality.

This. It's happened to me at least 4 times. It's a shame when I play UUG and groan because I'm anticipating freezing rather than the difficultly of the faction.

I'm having problems starting any games at all. After everyone has readied up and the match is loading, I get disconnected. This has happened in 6/8 of my last attempts to play. One game worked when I was dropped into a lobby with one other person and found myself host. Some other players joined later and we achieved full extraction with no issues. When I tried to start another match with the same team I got disconnected. After I opened a new lobby and got a few people to join I got disconnected. Today I've experienced similar issues and have only succeeded in starting a match when I created a new lobby and readied up before anyone joined.
Anyone else experiencing similar problems?

I have problems connecting too...as you mentioned, i'd be ina lobby after everybody is ready, the game loads or in my case it never loaded, but i could hear guns firing and the other folks playing...my screen just stayed black with the loading symbol.
I waited...hoping that it would load, but it never did, so when i tried to cancel, it stated that i would lose credits stats or whatever, i was really pissed off because i ended up losing my mods for that match...that can be a headache...sometimes i just load up with my gear for fear of losing my consumeables...

I haven't had this yet, but it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

That has happened to me as well, twice. What is really bad is half of all the sessions I play are collectors. Some of the times collector matches back to back. It isn't as random as I thought. Besides the freezing Ive been having audio issues. Its gotten a little better since yesterday.

This has happened to me at least twice, usually in the wave 7-9 stretch, and both times I'm fairly certain that all four people crashed.

I was planning on making a thread about this as well. Some more details:
The memory leak seems to be cumulative. The more you play Collectors in one sitting, the more likely it is to happen.
The lock up seems to always hit every player in the lobby at the same time. This is why it is believed to be a memory leak rather than a PS3 issue.
The Praetorian's missile barrage attack seems to be the worst effect, as it has been the moment I've froze multiple times.
The last time I experienced a Collector lock up, my PS3 acted funny for the rest of the day after I restarted.
At this point, I'd just like to advise PS3 players not to play Collectors at all. It's simply not worth hurting your PS3 over.

Solved so may questions
I wandered why my ps3 went 4-5 games freezing every 5 seconds, then playing for 2 and repeat
btw this is huge freezing we are talking about, you can't do anything, it locks you down

The PS3 is a mess right now in terms of connectivity, Collectors or not. Constant waiting for other players screens, lost connections and flat out freezes. Lag has risen to sometimes unplayable levels compared to a few months ago. I probably get a decent connection one out of four matches off host. It's horrible.

yeah if it keeps getting worse it will do the one thing no game has been able to do. Take me away from playing and giving money to ME3 MP.

It happens quicker when your trying to be awesome with a Kroguard because it freezed up on me even on silver and always when I am playing my Kroguard with Reegar. I notice its not so bad playing Silver as long as I am not my Kroguard, but I can see it being a problem on Gold because Gold with any faction is a cluster****
