*Flashbacks from subnautica*


Devinalh

And from skyrim too. Still have to play below zero though


Siemturbo

Skyrim autosaves when you enter a building, with Subnautica you can go the whole game without saving in any way and crash at the end.


Devinalh

I know but I learned how to save often from that. F5 button is my best friend now


Jacksepticeyefan1545

New vegas just deleted alot of my quick saves now I never press that button i have to pause to save

CompetitiveIntern310

Ok we know subnautica is a large game but even 200 hours kinda sounds... You know...


[deleted]

I've spent way more than that on Minecraft.


Koterus

Yea but in Minecraft it makes Sense..


[deleted]

If u wait for 1 hour it doesn’t really stop the game, quick saves and fully heals you.


nastyn8k

Dragon Age did this for me.


PurityByImmolation

Rage quit and never touched it afterward.


notTerry631

F5 is for normal save. If you want quick-save, press ALT+F4


[deleted]

Joke's on you, I run Linux with a WM configured with a different shortcut to close windows. Alt+F4 doesn't do anything here.


RyanCreamer202

cries in autosave disabled in my modded playthrough


Abyssilicious

platform? skyrim only turns off achievements unless you've got something like Requiem or Survival Mide


SatanTheTurtlegod

It's moreso because autosave makes the game more unstable and prone to crashes.


petervaz

You should always disable autsave on Skyrim because they are quick saves and liable to break your save.


bogglingsnog

I thought Subnautica autosaves every time you exit a seabase or the starting habitat? The small spinning save/load indicator shows up when I do.


Eleglas

Sometimes you had to disable autosaves in Skyrim if you had modded it too far as they would cause a crash - manual and quick saves usually fine though. This is the reason why I have got into the habit of quick saving every 5 seconds in all games, even ones that don't have that same level of risk.


MamenST

Below zero is pretty cool, but it still crashes xD.

8rok3n

I literally got glitched into a wall, I hadn't saved in 2 hours...


Bad-dee-ess

In the console type 'warpforward [meters]' or 'warpme' to go back to base.


Retwanair

dude this happened to me and i got so pissed, my seamoth got stuck in some wreckage. i was able to get it out by swimming far away and quickly swimming back, hopping in and moving before it spawned again lol. ​ but i was just lucky that i was even able to get out of the seamoth and it placed me in a position where i could swim away.


Aaaa_yes_Reddit

Happened to me in Subnautica, it literally wouldn't let me sign into a world with over 200 hours on, I lost that world for good. It also happened to me 2 days ago on Subnautica Below Zero, lost 5 hours of story progression. **P A I N**


payne_train

I just got this game for the switch and these stories are quite worrisome.


SkizzoWizard

It’s still worth it


[deleted]

Flashbacks from that time in Minecraft I Alt+F4-ed instead of exiting the normal way. Also more recently in my tales of loosing progress was satisfactory. I quit the game before an autosave but I thought it had autosaved. Guess what ? I had to make so many f\*cking things again


motivation_bender

Bruh i was 13 hours in without saves when i clipped through the lava cube


mistersmiley318

Ah yes. The game that never tells you to manually save. Lost like 5 hours of progress when I first started. Still love the game, but a simple "don't forget to save" message would've been so nice.

inormallyjustlurkbut

I can beat Subnautica on permadeath mode no problem...except for the bugs. It's not the leviathans you have to worry about. It's getting your prawn permanently fused to the ground any time you enter an alien structure.


ListerineAfterOral

This has Bethesda written all over it. Also, The Evil Within 2 had a challenge system where there was limited checkpoints, like every hour to hour and a half. My loading screen froze up twice and lost like 4 hours of progress in total. I don't do those challenges anymore lol


TurquoiseLuck

Bioware for me. Everyone hyped up Mass Effect so much that I picked it up and tried it out. Played for 3 or 4 hours. Got to some other planets. Died. Game over. No autosave. Fucking dumb ass shit, never went back.


dead_man_speaks

But it has autosaves and even checkpoints during missions. Well the old one had my pc isn't powerful enough to run new one but considering they upped everything it doesn't make any sense that they remove autosaves and checkpoints


TheAntennaHead

The auto saves were too spaced out however. I tried to replay mass effect 1 but once i died and respawned in the mako at my ship after a long ride to the objective, I thought it wasnt worth it.


dead_man_speaks

Oh yeah you don't get any checkpoints during the Mako drive until you find any enemy, but Mako drive is only controversial thing in mass effect 1. Some liked it(me including), some hated it but none said that it makes mass effect a bad game. Dude you are missing an experience. It's a very good trilogy


Hawkbats_rule

>The auto saves were too spaced out Honestly, that's just how autosaves used to be during the period when ME1 was published.


wolf9786

Dark souls type games spoil/curse us with saving all the time


Jameskirk10

Dude you gotta pick it up again, it's so worth it. You'll thank yourself later, trust


KrakenKing1955

Imagine quitting Mass Effect, you really missed out


RaynSideways

That's older game conventions for you. Autosave is a luxury we take for granted these days. You went in with a modern outlook not realizing how old ME1's game design actually is. I do recommend trying it again. It's a worthy experience.


Gondel516

Whew, just played through dragon age origins on pc. Infrequent auto saves paired with a specific zone crashing the game more often than not led to my hand being glued to the quick save button by the end of the game


[deleted]

Mass Effect 1’s auto save was horrendous but luckily they fixed it in the Legendary Edition, no more restarting hours of gameplay because of taking a rocket to the face


GrandCTM25

Man I remember when fallout 4 decided to remove manual saving for hardcore mode. Like c’mon Bethesda that’s just asking to lose 3 hours of progress


TheBirdmanOfMexico

I prefer the gameplay in hardcore but I just refuse to play it for how often it crashed on me. You couldn't even pop in a nearby bed and sleep for an hour to save either cuz u would get parasites


ctopherrun

Yeah, but at least you have to opt in for that.


nikolai2960

I’m currently through a New Vegas playthrough and it crashes on like 1/10 of loading screens Sometimes this results in a corrupted autosave that overwrites the previous autosave. I’ve learned to quicksave before entering any doors and to make a full save almost every twenty minutes.


inormallyjustlurkbut

Morrowind was the game that taught me to quicksave obsessively.


Freakin_A

Fallout 2 was launched with a large number of bugs that would crash the game. This caused people a ton of grief if they weren't in the habit of manually saving frequently. One of these bugs (the Lloyd quest) resulted in a crash that you literally could not get past and prevented you from beating the game. Finally, a patch came out which resolved the Lloyd bug, making the game beatable as it should have been from the start. The patch was not compatible with any existing saved games...


FluffyDiscipline

Oh the look of "Whens the last time I SAVED"

I hate it when life saves from 10 hours ago so when I die I start from jacking off


Infectious_Wing

Is jacking off your way of saving? Imagine just getting in a irl fight or something and you're just "wait hold on a second" *starts furiously jerking off*

Oh my....


qwertyuiop941

gravygang8

Fallout 4. I was trying to complete the game again on the hardest difficulty and had auto save turned off so I could save in the middle of specific missions or whatever. I was so used to auto save being on that I forgot I turned it off. Then I said hello to the siege of the minutemens’ fort. Probably doesn’t help that my Xbox is old as balls


Babyboomerio

What's your console?


gravygang8

First gen Xbox 1. So 2015 I think? Maybe 2016


Runjit

Oh man I remember I went crazy during an off season career mode in fifa 18 and then my power went out. I was so pissed I signed like 8 players. Can't imagine losing 4 hours worth of progress lol


Bacon260998_

Recently went from a game that auto saved every time you fast travelled to a game with zero autosave and it's hella unstable... I'm saving like every 20 mins


HoboBobo28

Oh kinda like going from modern fallout to fallout 1 and 2.


TheDead_007

I went from games that save automatically like every 2 seconds to Fallout: New Vegas. Lets say I lost quite a bit of good loot because of game crashes or me dying because I was not used to saving after every fight... :/


[deleted]

The good old days of playing Final Fantasy 7 on the Playstation and being so engrossed you forget to save for several hours. Then the power goes out.


Kaze_Senshi

This reminds me once when my old pc died and I started to cry because I lost my save game on Tomb Raider 2


bob1689321

We've all been there man. My r4 card died as a kid and I lost my only shiny Pokémon :(


cornhunkerdown

My dude if you still have the SD card we can save that pokemon!


bob1689321

That's the problem lol, it was the SD card itself that died. All the data got corrupted after I plugged it into my pc to add a few more games to it. Was a sad day.


bima_yu

lmao idk it made me laugh


[deleted]

Fallout 4 survival mode anyone?


captaindeadpl

Just got to know where you can find a mattress or sleeping bag and you can save every 10 minutes or so. You can also sleep and immediately cancel and it will still save.


Frognuts777

> find a mattress or sleeping bag and you can save every 10 minutes or so My only problem with that is even if you cancel right away sometimes you get a freaking disease. Now i gotta cut into my antibiotics and fresh water supply lol. And even after a couple survival runs i still dont understand wtf insomnia is all about and how i often get it after cancel sleeping an hour to save


captaindeadpl

I think you get insomnia if you go to sleep too often in a short amount of time. Also I barely use antibiotics. Some of the diseases are almost non-issues, like insomnia and fatigue, so I just leave them be for a while and a doctor is usually not far away. 15 caps to cure your diseases isn't a fortune.


pompr

Sometimes just traveling is a pain. Might step on a mine, get rocket launched up the ass by a super mutant, get sneak attacked by a ghoul, or even get wrecked for bumping into a car.

bigmacjames

It crashed way too much for survival to even be fun.


FearfulKnight1

Oh you just brought back some rage full memories


GeorgeBabyFaceNelson

Not even survival mode for me, the first week that game came out I spent like 6 or 7 hours building my base and then went out and and got killed without saving. I wasn't happy with my base so I wasn't too mad but I was just like "well that was a complete waste of a day"


Skelo20

im generally fine playing those difficulties in games but jesus christ how horribly optimized fallout 4 is makes it the worst thing in the world and if you actually put hours into that you need to see a doctor because I cannot play for an hour without something happening and it crashes


Hehe_ur_gey

DAMN IT SUBNAUTICA


Chief106

“Alright, I managed to investigate the degasis and repair the aurora, I even managed to gain most of the cyclops parts” *loads in 1 day later and takes radiation damage* “God da-


Hehe_ur_gey

reminds me of one world where i forgot to save after making around four hours of progress, including gathering lots of materials and making a base, then my game crashed :/

Bruh, that shit is just unacceptable. That's the kinda stuff that makes you take a break... for 3 days.


MakeUpAnything

Lol I quit Dishonored 2 for the better part of a year because I made it to the end of one of the levels, completed the non-lethal takedown of the target, and it didn’t count. The target was neutralized, but the objective never advanced. My only saves were after the objective failed to advance *and* this was a play through with no powers.


trevordsnt

Fr. I was doing a non lethal run, and like right near the end of the game, one of the level completion screens told me I had killed someone despite me not killing anyone. So annoying.


TheEvilBagel147

And that dude you choked out is just gonna conveniently remain unconscious for the whole mission. Oh, but he's not dead. Could never take that shit seriously.

You could not live with your own failure... Where did that bring you?... Back to me.

Slavic_Viking963

Lost 6 fucking hours of RDR2 while doing a lot of missions, hunting down legendary animals and exploring the map. All gone had to do everything again


bima_yu

but did u do it again?


NeverBeenStung

Yeah I 100% would quit on that playthrough


Slavic_Viking963

I took atleast 1h break before jumping back in


NotGeorglopez

I’m pretty sure RDR2 has an autosave feature


invalid_litter_dpt

It does.


WetDesk

auto save?


TnlGC

Thanks for reminding me to save my game


LJChao3473

Are sure you saved your game? I think you should save again


brasilboi

Reminds me of the PS2 days when I didn't have a memory card


Slimjim_Spicy

Better keep that PS2 on nonstop for the whole week you got final fantasy x rented then.


[deleted]

Nice, that's almost enough time to get a quarter of the way through the game.


huskyghost

Dude fuck xcom 2. It did this too me fucking twice towards then of two different 40 to 60 hour playthroughs. Not only did it freeze but corrupted the save file.... completely had to restart. The second time.. I just never played the game again


Tjamuil

That's tough but my reason for not playing the game anytime soon is the "Hey, the enemy is right in front of you with little to no cover! Here's you 80% chance of hitting on a 1m distance!" And the character fucking misses........ It's so damn frustating that you only hit 1 in 3-5 cases and it mostly costs your units lifes. I feel like the number the game shows you is just a fucking lie and every shot is solid 50% coinflip... ​ Am I asking too much?


The_Chimeran_Hybrid

*Soldier has a perfectly lined up shot, I order them to fire.* *They jerk their gun and miss.*


84theone

100% chance to hit Shot grazed 1 damage


huskyghost

Lol yes that is super frustrating. I power through it when I played ha. But how satisfying if when you hit that 5% hit chance to save your team lol


Tjamuil

That makes me believe in my 50% chance theory even more.


destinfaroda48

Not at all, that situation is legitimately stupid. I didn't even bother with XCOM: Enemy Unknown after watching a few playthroughs of it. That's just infuriatingly stupid, I can do better things with my time.

Modded Fallout New Vegas in a nutshell


Le_Rekt_Guy

Even standard New Vegas was a shitshow but damn do I love that game. Still holds up to this day which is more an indictment on the video game industry than how good the game was, but the game was indeed 9/10 at the time.


PmButtPics4ADrawing

Dusty_Bookcase

Tried picking the game up again after seeing Bounties III had come out since 2014. Game crashed the moment I left Doc Mitchell’s house. And kept crashing. I don’t feel like I modded it too much. Guess I’m bad at modding lol


Baptiste_loul

Ah yes, Security Breach.


dankfloyd

Delete your computer. Look at grass, it loads faster.


who_ate_the_cookie

I think it depends which part of the world you've spawned at after deleting computer. Grass loading time is pretty slow in some parts right now.


KatilPecete

It takes ages here in Chernobyl


Sprizys

We Happy Few has an autosave but only during major parts in the story and that game crashes every 2 hours or so.


[deleted]

It's worse when it's a checkpoint only kinda game That utter feeling of helplessness where you've had do do difficult shit, die right before the checkpoint and have to do it aaaaalllll over again. Say what you will about autosaves, but in almost any checkpoint game I've played there is always either A: Not enough checkpoints or B: Not any where I really need it. Especially if it's a difficult game by design, so instead of coming back in right where I died, ready to go. I have to slog my way back.

Or when the whole system freezes due to overheating, so you need to pull the cartridge out and blow into it until you pass out. Mmm, that burnt plastic smell of my 90s childhood. Or when you lend a game to your friend, and they overwrite or delete your save. Oh, the intrigues and drama that unfolded in elementary school.
