Anyone experiencing constant freezing during heists?

[InfamousDooMZ 30]

for some reason every time I get to certain points in heists, my game decides to freeze. constantly. always at the same time. I am not level 8000 and It's really really annoying. I have just reinstalled my game and hopefully that fixes it. would like to know if I'm the only one experiencing this issue

Check your disc for even the smallest dirt of fingerprint...

A friend had an issue with Max Payne 3 always freezing at the same point in the same chapter until he noticed a small scratch on the disc. In the end the scratch was dirt, he removed it and no longer had problems with freezing on that point. It went back to the known random freezes in the game.
The heists were part of an update but maybe it tries to load some environment item from disc that fails.

 

On PS4 the game often lags a lot when driving past the casino in online mode, but on PS3 the casino was just an empty shell that you couldn't enter in online mode.

@Kolmthank you for the response! the disk does look clean but I may need to take a closer look. 

 

edit 1: turns out my disk is super scratched up. no wonder the guy I bought him from sold it for so cheap. *facepalm*

Then I think you have found your reason...

turns out it was just the game itself. I reinstalled it and thankfully I'm not experiencing any. freezing. so glad it's been dealt with

That's awesome! For me reinstalling a game never fixed anything so I kinda stopped believing in that
