Freezing making me look like a quitter

[DethBoxx]

I just started trying out Score Duel the past couple of days, on drums and vox. Fun stuff, and I haven't experienced people quitting out as I have seen so many complaints about. However, twice now my Xbox has frozen up at the very end of a song, and of course both times I happened to be losing, making me look like a quitter. I haven't seen the game do this before, but it just totally froze and I had to restart my 360. Anyway, I sent messages to the people I was playing against both times apologizing and explaining that the game froze, and I think they understand but really how would they know I wasn't lying?

Anyone else had this happen? (Xbox 360). It seems like a strange coincidence that it happened both times at the end of the song when I was losing. I just have to wonder if this isn't the source of at least some of the 'quitters' we have heard about. Anyway, if this is a bug in the Score Duel mode of the game hopefully it gets patched soon, and I guess don't be so quick to judge someone as a 'quitter'.

Could maybe be from overplaying (Just guessing).
My 360 used to freeze on me alot when I played Dead Rising for hours on end.

[DethBoxx]

I've never really had it freeze before, even in summer and its definitely not warm in here now or on longer than usual so I dunno.

[PikkuKaiShinto]

Your connection COULD maybe be a factor... did the freezing happen on separate days or on the same day?

[DethBoxx]

Both times were tonight. And I do think someone was uploading something which tends to bog down the connection. But I didn't get disconnected, my screen literally froze and all I could do was press the power button on front of the Xbox.

[PikkuKaiShinto]

It couldve lagged you to the point of freezing/dcing though.
See if it happens later tonight or tomorrow.

Sadly it has nothing to do with the game but with your xbox. Hopefully its a not a huge issue. Mine freezes up sometimes, but its not frequent enough to bother me.

As for the quitting part, yes it doesn make you look like a quitter, specially if it was near the end of the song and you were losing. If it was a ranked match I would have send you negative feedback. That is from my point of view of course. Lets hope that the two people were more understanding.

Also I dont think your two disconnects are part of the source of the "quitters." That is much bigger issue and two games doesnt make a big difference. Trust me, when you get higher up in the ranks and you get 15/20 games on you quit, you will see what we mean!

[DethBoxx]

Yeah they were ranked matches. I sent messages apologizing/explaining. I'm not doubting that there are quitters out there, but I know that I will now think twice before assuming I know for a fact that someone quit a game intentionally. Just think if I had been playing the same person both times, there would be no way they would have believed it wasn't intentional. Hell I wouldn't have believed it either.

[GreyFoxx]

You are right about that. I usually let it go if its the first time. However if it happens more than once then I have to assume its intentional.

Also your situation its different, you sent them a message. I however, have never recieved a message apologizing so I can assume that it was intentional or they dont really care about their rep.

In any case it was only two times so I dont really see any harm done.

[DethBoxx]

There is a small amount of harm done because I am paranoid now about it happening again LOL.

maybe they did get the win because i have noticed sometime when people quit at the last minute on me it still processes as a victory at the end for me and i can see their rank and mine with the percentage and everything
