    I recently received a refurbished R3 when my R2 crapped out. I got Black Ops to celebrate, but I've got a serious issue with the game freezing twice every match.

    The first freeze happens as soon as the map is finished loading. My game hangs up for almost exactly 30 seconds, and it happens every single time.

    The second freeze happens about 2 minutes and 15-30 seconds (when the game clock is around 7:45) into every single match. My game will freeze for about 10-15 seconds, and I'll even freeze in game, as when I get killed I can see my character locked up mid-run in the killcam.

    Is this a normal issue for the m11x R3? Is there a fix? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    First time I've heard of it. My first solution would be to right click the game in steam and validate the files. If that doesn't work. Reinstall. If that doesn't work. Then I'd be stuck too..

    Mine works perfectly fine.

    P.S. if you dont have steam jump to reinstall.
