Broken Steel quest-related areas causing my game to freeze


Recommended Posts

The problem areas are:

  • Rivet City (Protecting the Waterway)
  • Museum of History (The Amazing Aqua Cura!)
  • White House Plaza (Who Dares Wins)

Whenever I try to get close to these areas (whenever I try to approach the entrance to Underworld in the Museum's case) my game freezes on me.

 

No matter how many times I try, the game freezes at these 3 spots. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the DLC, several times, and have even bought a brand-new game disc to try and fix the problem. Nothing works.

 

Though, I have gotten close enough to Rivet city to see that the exterior textures of the ship have turned funky, so I'm starting to think it's a problem within my save files that's causing this. I fear that I might have to delete the saves entirely and start over, but I really hope that isn't the case.

 

Any ideas on fixing this?

 

 

(Other Notes)

 

(I've traversed the wastes extensively beyond these areas, have fought enemies introduced by this DLC, have collected weapons and armor introduced by this DLC, but have not run into this problem anywhere else, so I'm fairly certain it's only quest-related areas that cause the problem.)

 

(Also, on a second character who HAS NOT completed the Project Purity quests, he IS allowed into the Museum of History, but not into the Galaxy News Radio station while on the Following in His Footsteps quest, so it seems to be important quest areas in general that cause the crash, rather than only Broken Steel quest areas.)

 

(Both saves were started before I downloaded Broken Steel)

 

(I have the Xbox version of the game)

Starting over has no effect on this issue, right after leaving the vault and going into Megaton, the now quest-laden area causes my game to freeze.

 

I've even tried deleting both Operation Anchorage and The Pitt from my 360's hard drive, but I'm still not allowed into quest areas

 

It seems that the problem is with the Broken Steel DLC itself...

 

Is there ANYTHING that can be done to fix this problem? I'm at a complete loss on what to do :confused:
