PlayStation 3 Homefront players were glad to see that a patch had come their way to solve the freezing issues but it seems another issue may have been caused.
Some users have complained since the patch that their rank had been reset with one commenting on the Homefront official blog “I was rank 24 and i played a game and noticed i was back to 2.” THQ and Kaos Studios’ has already picked up on the comments and commented that they are investigating “any and all issues as they are being reported.”
It’s nice to see another developer putting a lot of work into the game to fix everything wrong but it does ask the question was the game 100% ready to ship? Comment your opinions on Homefront below.

March 19, 2011 at 11:54 AMClearly the game wasn’t ready to ship. Not only is it buggy as all get out but the multiplayer infrastructure server-side is overloaded and constantly struggling. What I’m surprised about is that Sony and Microsoft let it through onto their consoles in this state. Did THQ call in some special favors?

March 19, 2011 at 12:29 PMThis game actually sucks. The whole idea should be about entertainment and enjoyment. The helicopter section is very difficult to get through, it just becomes a chore. Waste of time and money.

March 19, 2011 at 8:22 PMdubdave thats is only a question of gaming experience. chopper was easy for me here. the game itself is pretty amazing… yes there are issues and maybe it wasnt ready to be shipped… bugs etc… but once things get going… this game is gonna be GOD !

March 19, 2011 at 9:46 PMI say great job with the game. Every game that comes out has its issues the first could of weeks. MOH I couldn’t hear my party or hardly join a lobby with my party for the first 1.5 weeks. Let them get the Server overload issues fixed and I am sure we will see a patch or two to address the other issues.
Yes I think there could have been more testing done, but hey, stuff happens and as a software engineer you can’t predict everything that will happen in an online environment all the time. I still like this better than COD:Black Ops

March 19, 2011 at 11:37 PMThis was for the PS3 only. I feel special understanding that it is only the
PS3 is having problems. On my XBox I am rank 36 and beat campaign on the hardest difficulty. No bugs, glitches, or “very difficult” parts.

March 20, 2011 at 2:06 AM@ Eric- No, it is SOOO not a question of gaming ability, as I have been gaming for 30 years now and have probably whipped yer ass in COD numerous times. I do not doubt my abilities at all, just Kaos’ abilities at making games. Your AI team does THE MOST stupid shit like run out into danger only to let enemies by to sneak up on you from behind. They stand in your way endlessly for more unnecessary kills. But the worst thing is the cheap grenade deaths that your team walks right through unharmed. Anyone who has spent any time w/ the game knows all of what I say. Question my abilities at buying new games? Maybe, but not my tactical prowess in ANY game. Sorry to sound cocky, but I’m damn good, unlike Kaos. Multiplayer, on the other hand is not bad, as it feels like a different game completely.

March 20, 2011 at 1:08 PMSince the patch, I used the match making with friends. Worked for a few games then we ended up on different teams and in different games altogether.
Then, the freezing started. I had no issues with freezing until I was in match making. Hope Kaos fixes this. The game is awesome but if you can’t play without freezing that is a definite game breaker. I don’t want to trade this game in but if they can’t fix this issue I will be left with no alternative. I don’t want to wait months for a fix.

March 20, 2011 at 1:10 PM@Blackheart…The patch was for PS3 only. The game will freeze forcing you to restart your console.
