Anyone elses GT6 froze after they updated to 1.02?

So this appears to be a hit or miss thing? Glad to hear it had nothing to do with the credit glitch. i'll let mine update and see whats happens. I have a very fast internet connection. I've got another 50 or so cars to update image and then will do the update. Will report back about the boot issue.

15 minutes from start to finish including the 2nd update. No black screen or PS3 reset. Praise God!!!

After installing 1.02 and after the mini update installed my system froze up to a black screen. Nothing was happening so I ejected the disk hoping to fix the problem and when I put the disk back in I got the 'triple beep reboot wanna send an error report wanna do a file system repair' deal again. This is the 3rd or 4th time this has happened. There is no excuse for these errors and data losses. Battlefield 4 is getting reamed for this crap and so should PD and Sony.
 
Mine keeps stopping at 13% it either signs me out of psn or says there was a error and gives me an option to go back to the home screen. It couldn't be my connection since its always 13% / This is during the download
 
This also happened to me, but having seen this thread I wasn't worried.

But it's a quite glaring symptom of PD's lack of Quality Control.
 
I had the same problem. The reboot solved it. I think the same thing happened when I first started the game the other week and got the V1.01 for the first time.

Seems pretty accurate to me, old fat PS3's crash, especially when receiving cars and the newer ones freeze from what I've read on here. Lots of issues that need sorting but when people keep glitching those will end up getting fixed first. :(
 
I have a fat PS3 (I think it was the first or second one released in the U.S. - I bought it used off a friend). I didn't use the credits glitch. I got a black screen after the install. I had to reboot, send the error report to Sony, wait for the PS3 to check itself, and the game worked fine the second time around. It was late last night and I won't really have a chance to play the game again and see any significant difference until Friday evening, though.

I definitely need to start backing up my save file before any future updates, though. I've heard too many horror stories here.
 
Yep. Mine froze with a black screen after the mini update. Just turned it off as it was late at night, so I will check after work today. Happier now I've read this thread and that other people are having the same issue but its fine on reset. Definitely going to start regularly backing up now though for peace of mind!
 
It happened to me both with 1.02 and with the latest mini-update.
I have the DL version of GT6, on an SSD-equipped slim PS3.

Mine did, just went to a black screen. Had to hard reset the PS3 then it came up and checked my files to make sure nothing was corrupted. Worked the second time though.

This is exactly what I am currently experiencing. I has saved mid championship before update day and I hope that doesn't cause some serious problems.
 
It happened to me as well after I installed 1.02 yesterday and after the microupdate installation. I rebooted my PS3 and after disk repair GT6 worked fine. Today I started the game again, and there was the microupdate again. And yes, after that microupdate my PS3 crashed, AGAIN! So I think it has something to do with the microupdate being screwed up, not the 1.02 patch. Any thoughts?

Well, not if it was just taking a minute or more to load the T&C screen as GTPVenomZombie suggested.

Anyway, new update today and it happened again - same proceedure, all working fine.

My game locked-up just like yours.

I had to reset and then restart the game with my fingers and toes crossed.:nervous:

My game worked on the second launch.:)

Whew!

That is what I was thinking. I almost skipped the mini update after 1.02 to test the theory.
 
I thought mine was hung but I noticed the HD light blinking so I thought I would just give it a while, made some coffee, read a few posts then heard the intro movie start
