It worked when I was working on my way to platinum in this game, so I just wanted to get confirmed that it's not working anymore.

Your talking about the resistance glitch? That one doesnt work anymore because as you said it exits when you eject. This is a completely different glotch that doesnt require you to eject the disk

Hello guys, I have had a small problem that has hindered my process of getting these 2 trophies. I followed the guide all the way untill where you load up the game and sign in at the multiplayer menu. The problem is it WONT sign in, no matter how many times I try, just keeps trying until it signs out. The only thing stopping it from signing in is the proxy server information but as I dont understand how this affects the signing in process I dont know how to get around this. I'm on a wireless network but its a good connection, would it be likely to work on a wired connection? I havent tried this as the router is downstairs and the ps3 is upstairs, making it difficult to connect it up. Thanks for your time.

I did mine on a wireless connection so it makes no difference. Its probably a problem on your end. Im not too sure how to fix it but you are turnijg on the patch blocker before you sign in right? A few actually forget this step. Also your computer might need to be closer to your ps3, although i cant see how this would help...

I do have one thing to ask though. I got both trophies but didn't unlock any of the skins for online play? i followed all the steps so im just asking. was this patch blocker only suppose to unlock the trophies and not the skins or did i do somthing wrong?

Thanks for the reply. Glad to hear there's still a way for those who's going for the platinum after the update. Wouldn't be so fun if you wasn't able to use the glitch...

The glitch doesnt give you the skins or level you up either. Its offline xp and it only tracks for that session so if you stop then come backto do it, youll start from 0 not your current. Ive done it and im only like lv 5 online

Yh I am turning on the patch blocker before I sign in. Doesnt help lol. Could u please specify the reason why u shouldnt test connection because I tried the patch blocker first, then it didnt work so I tried testing the connection afterwardss to see if it was picking up the internet connection and it wasnt. I changed back to dont use proxy server and it picked up the connection again. Could that potentially stop this trick ever working???

If you test connection it stops you from connecting. I dont know how or why but unless you have logged into the game it wont allow you to sign into the internet. You think its testing but it just comes back with a fail. I actually dont know why this doesnt work for some people so unless you havent followed the vids/instructions correctly which you probably have then I cant really help sorry. It could be to do with internet speeds or nat types or something but I dont really know anything about that kind of stuff
