Preface: I'm aware of this forum post, but that is totally different issue to mine.
I'm stuck valued GiantBomb users. I received Split/Second last Thursday but have not really had chance to play it much over the past week. Having pulled the game out on Sunday, I decided to go straight online for my first taste of the action. Hit Public Match, Race and the "Please Wait" screen started. Then it crashed -- the floating glass effect just froze and I couldn't access XMB. I rinsed and repeated several times but - nada. Crashed everytime.
I hit up Google. No one was having the same issue. I hit up Twitter. No one was having the same issue. Hmm. Ok.
So today I tried again. Same thing. I deleted the Game Data and reinstalled that. I then downloaded the 1.01 patch and tried again. Same thing! The single-player works absolutely fine - no crashing anywhere. It only crashes when I try to join a multiplayer game.
I don't really know what to do. This is the first time I've ever known something like this to happen. Usually when multiplayer is borked, it's borked for everyone and a patch fixes it. My issue seems totally isolated however. The disc is not scratched, though I've tried to clean it. Same problem.
How can it just not work for me? I don't really understand. A disc's a disc - it has the same code on it. I'm stuck, I bought it off Amazon. Should I send it back and get a replacement or what? Even then, I'm not sure it would resolve my issue with a new disc. I'm stuck!
