Save files are corrupted

When I die or exit the game I cant load my save file. When I click on save file, it opens it and gets stuck on black screen. I hear the menu music in the background, and is says it is running when I look at task manager. I have updated drivers and reinstalled, but nothing has worked.

forums.cdprojektred.com

Saves are guaranteed to get corrupted if they go past 8MB. I've dodged every gamebreaking bug so far but this one seem inevitable. RIP.

I played 65 hours first time, having 50+ manual saves, and gathering and crafting shit by the ton. My save only went up to 5,5mb. Just don't craft thousands of cheap grenades to level the skill, and you'll be fine until they fix it.

 

[ItachiSWE]

So I've applied the latest patch on ps4 pro and now i can't exit settings even if I'm in game, any workaround for this?

 

[GaviotaGrande]

I finished the game for the first time. It took me 113 hours.

 

[8BiTw0LF]

Well. Had a rendezvous Meredith..that was some weird shit. Glad no one was around.

First time or? I've thought about calling her again, just to "mix it up" with the regular joytoy whores I'm banging. Sad Panam isn't available - best fucking virtual pussy I've ever got!

 

[ItachiSWE]

And nowhere settings work again...

about HDR and the latest patch.
I have Sony xf90/xf9005 and any tips om HDR settings for the game?

She definitely knows what she wants.
I hope you picked up the special melee weapon?

Sounds like you're getting reported, mister.

sounds like I was right.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

What difficulty are you all playing on? I went hard and I'm in a battle that is not going well. I keep getting hacked so my HUD overheats. I can still attack but it makes health management a nightmare. Debating on bumping it down a level but I also don't want to be a baby about it.

 

[Perfo]

Claire is nice too

It saddens me so much seeing a game like this, full of diversity and inclusive above all, being talked by certain idiots as some Nazi Revival Agenda.

Fuck internet.

 

[zwiggelbig]

I really love the details in this world. This is the first game where I'm actively looking at everything the art teams made

 

[SJRB]

Hot damn Pacific Dreams is a god tier radio channel. They did such a good job with the music in this game, it's crazy.

Perfect study background music too. Awesome blend of ambient synth and elektro.

I have an X900F.

Here are my settings after over an hour of testing and comparing with SDR.

Peak Brightness: 900
Mid: 1.75
PW: 300 (or personal preference)

I found that going any lower than 1.75 for the tone-mapping midpoint causes the bright signs and neons to lose their nice glow effect, so I'd stay at that number if I were you. Night time will still be dark enough, if not a tad more visible than SDR.

Oh, one more thing. Turn on Reality Creation by setting it to manual and turning it up to 50. No higher than that. Much cleaner looking image!

i started on Hard but the Maelstrom mission where you get Flathead was fucking me up. The Netrunner kept overheating me and the enemies were bullet sponges. Dropped down to Normal. Enemies still took a lot of hits to kill and I still got fucked up by the Netrunner. Now i've upped my stats + improved my weapons it's much better but still a challenge. Normal I think is a good balance. Hard/Very Hard are only really if you want a real challenge.

That's the mission I am on. I wish there was a save opportunity between some of the rooms as I can clear everything up to the room with all the moving conveyors and shit.

i still couldn't get out so reloaded my save to take a different approach. there was still some fighting but not as bad.

I think that mission is a difficulty spike by design, I noticed combat was harder than anything that happened prior to that mission.

Also think it's the first time you encounter an enemy Netrunner and the game doesn't explain how you're supposed to deal with that.

if i remember right there is a prompt when the first overheat you but imo it didn't help. i still couldn't figure out WTF to do.

Yes, this mission was a pain in the rear on very hard. Everything that came after that was a breeze.

 

[Explosive Zombie]

Ped AI at least seem somewhat improved.

This game must be so fucked on consoles if that's improved, that's the way pedestrians respond to gunfire for me since day 1. I also can't recreate that glitch someone showed of police spawning on rooftops, I've even killed civilians and gotten warrants without it happening. So much of the problems with this game must be platform dependent.

.....why yes, she is. She definitely didnt strike any suspicions from me.

I think I was at the same point kept dying my weapons felt like they weren't doing any damage too the point I thought it was a bug at the time, so I went back down to normal. Catching on fire was confusing as fuck I didn't know what the fuck was happening

On hard enemies are just bullet sponges and you don't have enough mods to beat them any other way but with guns that early in the game.

 

[HotPocket69]

Beat on the brat, that army guy with a sniper rifle, is that fight supposed to be that tough? It's on moderate and I breezed through the twins. Had to cheat to win here.

Same with cyberpsychos missions. All others were fine, but that one with the ritual was hard as hell to beat. Also on moderate.

Didn't have any problems with the army vet. Did you have gorilla arms? All I did was keep my hands up and circle around him. Once he attacked, I would just dodge and go in for a charged hit and then a couple follow ups. It was great. The trick was to not get greedy with your offense.

the music in this game is incredible. last night i ended up at some drug deal gone wrong, everyone was dead, nearby a boombox was blasting something that sounded like 90s-era NIN. felt so awesome.

No gorilla hands, I only have Mandalorian like mini rocket. Dodging wasn't an issue, I even parried his attacks but my attacks were doing miniscule damage to him. Even though my strength is around 10. I guess I will need gorilla hands if I ever go for another one of those.

I had to drop a katana on the ground and equip it mid fight to beat this mfer.

[Moogle11]

Side quest lines are so damn good in this game. Finished up River Ward's quest line last night, and a bunch of the one with the Peralezes (may be over, nkt sure) after doing Panam's the night before.

Very hard, don't be a baby

 

[Loostreaks]

One question: How does crafting/upgrading items work?
As I understand it, it increases their base stats from common to legendary tier? Are there same weapons/gear with higher level requirements with higher stats, so you need to repeat the same process with them?
And with cyberware: I've found "legendary" raven mk4 cyberdeck..is this the best version in the game? ( Or you can find later on, better "common" cyber deck with higher requirements)

The fire is because of the hacking / overheating, yeah?

Very hard, don't be a baby

I don't usually play fps games because they me nasty motion sickness within the first 20 mins. I had to move my PC out to the living room, crank up the FOV, and play with a controller to curb the motion sickness enough so I can play in 2 hour increments. I don't think very hard will be for me.

 

[rofif]

I didn't spec to be looking like a saints row pimp but I never found any better hat.
Level 21 and I still have the same clothing...

I don't wear any hats at all, they are all hideous. If only we had those Arasaka snipers and netrunners masks.

Don't be so near sighted, I went with hard so I'd have a second play through that doesn't feel easier...baby!

Yeah, it's fucking crazy. I was playing with the same bandana from the first 5 hours to the 30th hour cause nothing better showed up.

No offence, but you look like a human shaped trash bag with a fancy hat.

the fuck.. They did this after a week of release? Ffs, this game could have been SO MUCH BETTER and get so much better PR if they did not RUSH THE FUCKING LAUNCH. God dam idiots. I feel so bad for the developers who put their heart and soul into this project, worked so hard on it only for management to rush it out because they always set unrealistic deadlines and then even with that they rushed it even more.

 

[Decontamination Silo]

Will there be an option to turn back on the braindance scenes that induced seizures? I'm not epileptic, but when I heard about people having problems I tried my hardest to stare at those flashing lights and I gotta say, I felt a tingle! Now they're gone?!?! WTF. This needs to be in the options menu. Don't cripple a cool IRL Braindance for such a small minority of customers.

 

[Black Chamber]

Even if CDPR keeps their promise to fix this game and make it like we were meant to believe this game should be...its just not possible. Not even in a year I suspect unless they delay all the DLCs and planned multiplayer stuff.

Theres just sooo many things missing that were once promised.

They can add more content as well as updates and fixes in the expansions.

That way, you get the expansion with more content and things to do - and more bug fixes along with it

It will be exciting to see where the expansions will take us and what new content they will add.

My hopes are:

• Playable Pool Tables and Arcade Machines
• Being able to buy things from all vendors
• More radio stations [a Synthwave radio station would be incredible]
• Crystal Palace missions
• Rideable NCART Monorail Transit System
• More weapons
• More clothing
• Customization of vehicles
• Being able to buy more apartments/safe houses
• Bodysculpting facilities, Barbershops and Tattoo Parlors
• Vastly improved NPC and Police AI routines
• Improved water effects
• Cut content being restored

I feel that is a modest list and would make the game and it's first expansion a perfect experience for me.

 

[scalman]

my new clothes , 3 of them are legendary and have pretty good mods on them so for now wont change but its kinda boring to wear same ones for longer time as its tones clothes just coming every minute as you shoot and loot and repeat.
i mean clothes... lol

if you know her you know her if you not yet , well you will in time, so no spoilers from others too

Spoiler

and that is what i ment how i see picture when i enter any dark room, i mean there are things there obstacles, boxes and such there, but there is no way for me to see that. i just see that go as blind and hoping for best untill i reach some sort of light source at least. changing game setting doesnt help at all
and every dark room without light is just like this.

 

[HotPocket69]

Black Chamber I know you want a synth wave station bad bro but the composers said they actively avoided putting that kind of music in game and instead wanted to focus more on early to mid 90s industrial and electronic.

A flashlight would be a cool addition to put in one of the patches/updates. It would not only be useful to be able to see in dark areas, but it would add tension, realism and atmosphere.

Oh I know they said that in the past - they also know that a lot of people are requesting Synthwave music and a radio station dedicated to that genre would be the perfect option; because those that don't want to hear it - don't have to tune to that station and those that do want to hear it will at least have the option

Nope. Do more gigs and crime detail. Sell your stuff! It doesn't take long to amass that much cash.

 

[Warablo]

Very Hard has been easy so far, but a mostly stealth Net Runner makes it that way. I think things will get way harder in the future though getting hacked and drones/mechs. If I get caught out in the open or flanked, I get brusted down though. Classic glass cannon stuff.

If were talking about content being added, I'd like to see:

*Houses/apartments
*A true complete respec system (perks and ATTRIBUTES)
*Plastic Surgeon/Barbers/tattoo (hair) (complete remake of your character)
*Vanity slot for armor/clothes
*Garage/car mods
*More vendors/items
*More repeatable content for end game

Obviously DLC stuff should be missions, locations, new cyberware, and increased level cap stuff

There is actually synth music in Rivers last mission, when you play lasertag with the kids, complete with some neon album covers, lol.
