I have made it my sacred duty to sanctify every single Off-topic thread with this beautiful piece of torture equipment art. Or at least every off topic thread I can remember to put it in.

My Xbone Spartan Assault froze in some weird way where I am unable to restart the game, essentially turning it into a digital vegetable.

Nah, I prefer remembering when you locked the old OTT. Every. Single. Post.

But yeah, I agree with you. the page counting seemed like an easy way to spam and increase post count.

Did you try holding down the Xbox One power button for 10 seconds? The RAM might be full. Holding down the button resets the cache and shuts off the Xbox One completely.

No, but I did throw my remote across the room. It didn’t fix anything but it was a healthy starting point.

I’ll try that. A force reboot always gets the job done.

I know, I was in support of the old one being locked before 1000. I’d rather enjoy it as it is as well.

But how am I going to fit something funny into this post?!?

My head exploded…again.

Darn that stupid Title Screen. The music is awesome, but it makes your head explode.

Enjoy it for what it’s worth?

As long as we’re not having a page 1000 competition and swamping the thread, I’m happy.

It’s pretty fun. I don’t know how well it will hold up after the Campaign is finished though.

Okay? We weren’t claiming ā€œthe rulerā€ of pages…

That’s good to hear. Have you guys tried any mulitplayer features yet?

The open world aspect in Chicago is pretty cool for me seeing as my Dad lives in Chicago and they got a lot of the city spot on. I noticed that some of the cites artwork (like the bean) was different. I would think they would try and get the artists permission…

@RJCCJ - I have not tried multiplayer yet.

And people say dub-step is bad.

Xbox One, 360, or both? On Xbox One, you can disconnect from the Internet, delete the console save, and earn the last Assault Op. Then, reconnect to the Internet. Boom, achievement. However, on the 360, it’s a little, er, lot more difficult. You’ll have to go offline, delete the console save, and redo EVERY last Assault Op, staying offline for the duration. There is no other way to fix the issue, and, because you are having the issue now, it will transfer over to every other version of Spartan Assault you attach your account to. It won’t hurt your Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 versions, because you can complete a weekly challenge to unlock it. You can’t do the same for the console versions, though.

Really wish this wasn’t delayed.

I don’t know if thats the issue. I didn’t have this problem (to my knowledge) a day ago. Yesterday I unplug my One and brought it home then noticed the issue. I don’t think just turning it off would fix it, I’ve seen a few other people in the Spartan Assault forums have the same issue but I haven’t seen a fix that doesn’t completely destroy my data.

Im playing on Xbox One. Deleting the consoles save… does that remove all my progress of the game?
