b1g_dav3 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Basically every time I click to update, it just freezes the console and the only way to turn the console off is by pulling the power out of the back of the PS3, anyone got any ideas?

jahrootz Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 That was happening to me at first. I gave it some time and attempted to update again and it worked. I assume it might just be a bandwidth issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sewy Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 It happened to me as well, it either freeze right away or if it actually started the download it would stop at 75% and give me an error. I waited a couple of minutes and it downloaded just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodRed87 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 (edited) I'm on PS3 and I'm getting this as well. f*cking christ, it's always one thing after another with this game. EDIT Ok, I think I found a fix. Don't download the update when it asks right away. Let the game load your save and then start the update.

RuudBoi Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 I just called with Rockstargames, and they told me to wait before you press on the ok button to start the download. Just wait 10/20 seconds, make sure the HDD-light is stopped blinking, then press ok (x). I am not at home tight now but i will try this later, en let you know.

I have the 2nd gen fat PS3 just like OP. Console would freeze completely every time I tried the update, had to turn off the master power switch to reset it. So I let the game load to my save point, then I went into the online tab and the download went flawlessly. Thanks BloodRed87! Much appreciated!

RuudBoi Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) I Just tried yesterday, and it worked!!, just wait before pressing the x button to confirm the update, wait until the hdd-led is off then press "X". So thx Rockstargames. BUT... after I installed the update all my purchased things are gone, like clothes, and homes/companies you can buy and all cars are gone in my garage. So I think I go play the story-line again. Edited October 3, 2013 by RuudBoi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digs795 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 This is happening to me with 1.03 and what you guys tried isn't working. Help? It stops at 75% every time and If i let it sit I get an error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It stops at 75% every time and If i let it sit I get an error. I'm guessing this is occuring because of all the high volume of people trying to download it. This happens every time there is an update. I'm not saying it happened to you before, but it has happened to many in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
