The Last of Us' autosave has a glitch. Read if you're playing. [Apparently fixed]

This is crazy. How are they going to handle this regarding people who bought the game but don't have the internet to apply a fix??

Um it seems like the problem is the internet connection, not playing ONLINE seems to fix it. So for those with no internet, there's no issue and when we can hope when they do have internet the fix will be out
 
Correct, that's what i did and i had no problems. Christophe Ballestra (Naughty Dog) told me to quit the game and try again sign in. Dad and and just hit the bug again.

So it certainly LOOKS LIKE playing offline is the solution. For now. Just disconnect from PSN before you boot the game and you should be fine.

For new page. Offline looks like the solution right now.
 
For those of you just joining us:

If you hit the bug you're fucked; there's no way around it. Quit the game, disconnect your PS3 from the internet, relaunch the game. You'll be back at wherever the bug was encountered but it should be fine from then on.

I know this is a new bug and all, but can it happen more than once? Anyone who got the glitch and lost progress, have you got the same bug again?
 
Fuck me. Its happened again. I'm just not gonna exit this. Fix this shit naughty dog.

Great game. But I'm not sure I want to play all day. Ha ha.

I hit the bug playing online at some point and lost 3 hours. I played for 20 minutes offline without a problem. Within 2 minutes of going online I hit the bug again.
 
The funny thing is I thought about checking GAF and I check GAF a lot before I started but then I thought, "Fuck it. Someone is probably gonna say playing this was more revelatory than the first time they had sex and that'll make me go into the gaming looking to hate" so I went straight in no rubber.

The moral of the story is you can't escape GAF
 
Well I had no idea about this bug - thought nothing of the autosaving message.

I guess I could have potentially lost about 3 hours here if I quit...
 
So just for confirmation becfore I pick this game up today, disconnect from the Internet means, DISABLE INTERNET CONNECTION in the PS3 settings?
 
Oh man, i finished the campaign in two sittings and the game glitched after the credits :( now i have to play half of the game again... Didn't see this thread before
 
Nope. Happened to me. If you haven't got the auto saving bug, just restart encounter.

Oh good, cos like in the intro people would just glitch teleport for split seconds and then one important character just disappeared entirely :/

I hope it doesn't happen when I play again. I keep hoping it was just the PS3 being too hot
 
Lost about an hour and a half =/

On one of the very few occasions where I pick up a game day 1, this happens

Yea, this is what I hate about this generation. This has happened way too many times with games.
Guess the new rule is wait a week and then buy.

Arg have to start prologue again.

I want to know this as well. Whether it simply means not signing in or disabling the connection via settings menu.
 
I have the season pass and the Gamestop code to enter...you have to be connected to PSN for this right...? so I enter those and then exit the game,disconnect from PSN and start playing...should be safe...?

Just to offline before you start, no need to wait a week.
 
So it's settled. I will be picking it up and playing offline for now. :) Thanks to everyone going through the pains for the rest of us.
