Its not stable here, at some roms with good ratings (stars and latency bar) stucks me, specialy in between the pit stop and the launch to the track.

I tried to clean the online cache, but no result.

I would even say that the whole PS3 is having issues, sometimes i get stuck simply by try to delete an old contact in my friends list.

Same with me.

Amazing how PD manages to break more things with each update.

:eek:
That's cruel and unusual, man. :(

For "preventative" measures, please do the following:

1. Clear your system cache.
It's in your Network Options. No evidence that this helps, but it has been known to improve loading times in the past. If your PS3 talks to PDs servers, clear your system cache daily.

2. Disable custom soundtracks. Kaz mentioned this in a tweet a few weeks ago. Again, if your PS3 talks to PD servers (online races, Seasonal events, Remote Racing, item gifting- even the free paints and cards, etc.), you'd probably be better off listening to the car anyway. Most have reported a noticable improvement with Seasonals after doing this simple step.

3. Reset your internet connection before playing. See that power cord on the back of your modem? Yank it, then replace it BEFORE you power up your PS3 and access the network, let alone play GT5.

4. Pray to deity of choice. Might seem blasphemous, but who else are you going to call? (Ghostbusters is too obvious) Maybe YOU will be the lucky one Jesus/Mohammed/Allah/Xenu/Santa/Tooth Fairy will answer, and maybe they'll grant your one wish to fix your games and PS3. Probably not, though.

If all that fails, proceed to Sony customer support. They're about as useful as #4 anyway.

Good luck

This. Thanks McLarenDesign.

My experience since disabling custom BGM has been flawless, though admittedly I don't do OLR.

I gift 5 museum cards and one car per day; I've grinded out Seasonals up to 20M; I've even used the B-Spec Grinder widget for 12hrs at a time. (Clearing net cache after a couple of those sessions took over a minute!)

So I'm back to being fat dumb and happy (was just fat and dumb before lol).

Let's keep this thread updated with people's experiences and issues. But please -- although venting is welcome and encouraged, when you report an issue try to give relevant details:
- Exact circumstances (A-spec, B-spec, Seasonals, OLR, etc.)
- What you saw/heard on screen
- Custom BGM
- Save-data file size
- Cleared net cache
- Reset network connection
- Your region, if not obvious (U.S./Europe/RoW)
- etc.
 
That'd be great, if we can get the mods to shut down the daily threads from people that can't search.
 
Yup, has happened to me. I thought it was another repeat of the RLSOD from GT4 and I was getting nervous.
 
grrrrrrrrrrrrrr
"- Hangup Type 1: Cross finish line of last lap, game takes control of car, but the "FINISH" text and race results never appear. The car will continue to drive slowly around the track forever, lap after lap. Controller buttons unresponsive, except Start will pause/un-pause."
Today I decided to do 9h sukuba endurance and that was my BIG mistake :/
after 9h of driving this bug happend to me. I'm angry but in same moment I'm happy that I didn't decide to do 24h endurance. I would be REALLY PISSED then:s
