Hi Tim,

I just reloaded the game from the german PS store and it still freezes.

For example in the 1st campaign on the hardest level. It always froze when I had about 0:56 seconds left, and the problem remains after deleting/redownloading/install the game.

I am wondering if there is still the old messed up version in the german store because nothing has changed (besides that the game was completely removed from the store for new customers).

OK, in this case i can definitely confirm some bad news.  This is a leaked build.  You can tell because we had a bug (now fixed) that would happen at 2 minute warning, 1 minute warning, and 30 second warning.  Essentially a sound cue ("Time is running out!") would randomly use too much memory and crash. 

Sadly, you have a bad build.  We have a patch we are expediting now to address this.  But i will recommend you talk to Capcom Customer Support.  i will send them this thread when i am done. ~tim

I do have to wonder what the point of the extended wait for Australia/Europe to get these games is, if mistakes like this still slip through.

Hi all!

I also think it's a shame that the game has not been patched yet. I bought it in Dec. (Europe version on PSN) and cannot finish the campaings because of the lockups. It freezes my PS3 completely!! In my opinion it often happens when there is a lot going on on the map (many ships, bombs, explosions, a lot of movement)

I really like this game and I'd play it a lot if it would just work. When can we expect a patch?

If there is someone out there from Capcom marketing: How do you think the initially successful game will be distributed if it doesn't work? By word of mouth? Give us at least a schedule!

looking forward to a playable AoB

It sure is annoying, and I completely agree with the post above.

I really hope that AoB is the first game that both PS3 and Xbox 360 users can play together online. That's the only way there will ever be enough people to keep matching times down. Can't be that hard, surely :)

Yiiihaaaaa!!! The patch is finally out.... but wait, it does not fix the game, it BREAKS it!

I was so glad to see version 1.01 update screen when I started AoB today. After a download of 44MB (same size as original game) the game tried to started automatically but instead an error message was displayed: "The copyright protection information is invalid (80052913)".

I then deleted the game (and regestration key), went into PS Store but could not find the game even though I used "All Games" and sorted alphabetically.

I then sent to my download list and re-downloaded the trial version, installed patched to version 1.01, and then re-downloaded and installed the regestration key. Still the same error!

Is this some kind of bad pirate joke? (Coypright protection is meant to keep pirates away)

So, I've paid for a game which I during the last month has not been able to utilize fully but been promised that it should be fixed quickly. And now I have a game which will not start at all! Refund?
