joakimnestor Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I've a 360 with BenQ reader. When i drive fast, it happens all the time that textures wont load, it seems like the dvd-reader doesnt keep up. Btw this is a real copy. Anyone else having these problems?

Seddo Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I've had slow texture loading whilst driving fast, every 360 owner will have the same problem. It was even mentioned in a PS3 v 360 comparison article. sh*tty Microsoft not giving every console a HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverick808 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I played it over a week ago and posted about pop-in and slow texture load but nobody believed me. Now tons of people are getting it and surprise, surprise, one of the first problems posted is pop-in and texture load on the xbox. Sorry to say, this is just the way the game is on the xbox. Maybe the PS3 too, I don't know cause I haven't played the PS3 version yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bludthirstydrummer Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 what xbox have you got e.g. elite / premium etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joakimnestor Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 It's a core/arcade. Well, i know that the magazines said that there will be popups, but i CANT complete the current mission because the textures wont load so i cant see where im driving. I can live with popups, as long as its still playable. But these problems are extreme, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiechu Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 So no hard drive, eh? Anyone getting as serious trouble? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joakimnestor Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 No harddrive. BUT, i have tested with my friend's hdd, and got the same problem. He also got BenQ drive, and also has major popups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiechu Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Yeah, but you can't do the mission? OMG. Can you compare it with any other game's pop up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flinty Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 They should have really included an optional install to the HDD for 360 owners. We have the HDD so why not use it ? eh ? why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joakimnestor Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 I can do some missions, where driving is not included. But as soon as i drive above legal speed, my xbox does not keep up and textures dont load. Here is a example: Picture But i have experiensed much worser conditions, where buildings and everything dissapears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joakimnestor Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 I dont think version matters, it seems like its the drive that's the problem. Almost every BenQ reader seems to have this problem from what ive read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maverick808 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I guess you could try buying a new 360 as it won't have a BENQ drive... or get a PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBizz6 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 How old is your xbox 360? When did you get it? I got it about two weeks ago at Best Buy. Also note that it has the 175 watt chip inside of it rather than the 205 watt chip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh995 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Ok, I have a Playstation 3, but this is a big problem, this shouldn't be happening on any console... I don't really know what you can do, maybe you can call Microsoft and tell them the problem you're having... They're working hard on making the 360 the "target GTA IV console" so maybe they'll help you out? Although, of course, that'd result in about a 2 week absence of your 360. We may own different consoles, but I feel for you man, I really, really do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverick808 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Yup, totally sucks. This is MS's fault in two ways. Firstly, for putting in the crappy ben-q drive on some xboxes in the first place. Secondly, for not allowing HD installs, which would allow this problem to be avoided even if you have a ben-q drive. At the moment it would seem the only real solution is a new console, either a new xbox (without benq drive) or PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeriousSam Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Thankfully, I have a Hitachi drive. So, I hope I'm safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Borgan Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 For those of you who are wanting to know what model of drive you had, I went to this handy site http://www.llamma.com/xbox360/Xbox_360_DVD..._Comparison.htm Luckily mine's a Samsung! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
