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

Moobabe went into full meltdown mode :(

I've apologised to relevant parties - not too big to recognise when I've been an ass.

And yeah - a little frustrated still (been a long couple of weeks on top of that) - gonna take my time, maybe put it on easy to catch up to where I was.

(Check your PM's Arne)

So... game's pretty good huh?

I'm sorry I'm just catching up since I just returned home from Gamestop. I completely understand your frustration but its all good now! Lets all enjoy this amazing game ASAP!
 
Moobabe is allowed to voice his frustrations guys. He paid good money for the product.

Of course everyone's allowed to voice their frustrations or opinions, with the understanding that the manner in which they choose to do so will color the responses of others.

Cause and effect.
 
Naughty Dogs speedy fix on this matter is great. Shame about people that lost out, but now we can at least enjoy the game and finish playing.
 
Dude, they fixed it in like less than 15 hours. Get a grip.

It's great they apologized...well...Arne did.

It's also great they also fixed it as quickly as they did.



More great still was that GAF figured out how to get around Naughty Dog's issue.

The issue is that it shouldn't have happened at all. I don't care that it's happening often/all the time with other games as well. When a game ships it should be ready to play, problem-free.
 
When was this fixed? I started playing two hours ago and just lost all of my progress, fuck this shit. I don't want to replay all that again.
I paused my game and it was stuck saving so i tought i better go to the XMB before i keep progressing and lose even more time, reloaded the game and my save is right at the beinning of the game, what the fuck?
 
I'm glad Naughty Dog fixed it as fast as they did. Went to Best Buy during lunch and picked up a copy of the game. Now I'm waiting to get off work, go home, and enjoy TLoU. :D

I would imagine that most people in this thread agree with this sentiment, including those of us who didn't react like 5-year-olds.

How is this thread still up? Lock this shit down. Problem solved.

Agreed.

Don't act like a child. I still had problems like an hour ago no matter the cause. Let the people at least exchange their information.7


EDIT: What I did is delete all data including save and data files, re-download all and it worked flawlessly.
 
Its not fixed. I've lost 2 hours again. WTF man! Sort your shit ND.

Gonna leave the game now, cba. I'll go back in a few days.
 
I understand the rage, I lost my Dark Souls save with 55 hours into it and just never played the game again.

It's impressive they fixed it so fast. Good on them.

C'est la vie.

Hope the game is good, can't wait to get home and play it in a couple hours : D.

Yo, I cried when I accidentally deleted my Kingdom Hearts save 11 years ago.

100%, so many hours :'(
 
I was playing offline and saving manually, will it all work properly now if I go back online? I know they fixed it but I mean will my offline saves be ok?
 
I started the PS3 an hour ago. How do you explain this except it happened 59 minutes ago?
Exactly an hour ago? They advised us to exit the game and re-launch it 1h20m ago.

It's not 2 hours since they fixed it, so you should have quit the game to solve it.

It sounds like you were both playing as it was being fixed tbh.
 
I have a doubt.

I started played online.
I encountered the bug two times (once in the prologue and once in chapter one).
Then I started playing offline with no problems and reached the end of chapter two.

Now can I play while logged in PSN using this savefile where the bug occured or do I have to delete the save file and start the game again from the beginning ?

The five year old thing is a bit harsh.

Maybe they are indeed over-reacting.

Or maybe they have been looking forward to this for weeks or maybe even months. They managed to square it away with their wife and despite her rolling her eyes about it she agreed that she wouldn't stack a bunch of things to do around the house ontop of the day off.

The kids are at school.

The guy has eight or ten good hours of uninterrupted play.

And the game that has been anticipated is fairly broken out of the box because of a saved game glitch that has to deal with nothing to do with the actual disc or his console. It's just another current gen, developer initiated issue that potentially inconveniences the player and doesn't seem to have any readily apparent benefits to the player.

So he's frustrated.

CoolBro-X on GAF calls him entitled and tells him to relax, it's not a big deal.

He gets more frustrated.

An apology...even a heartfelt one doesn't get him back the four or five hours he lost.


So for him...maybe the rant IS justified.

I'm not saying that videogames are a great way to spend time. I recognize that it might very well be a "waste" of time. It's my time to waste however. When other people waste it; particularly a developer; particulary a developer that appears to be ontop of things like Naugty Dog...if/when they waste my time. That would certainly piss me off.

I'm just glad I was at work when this went down. Because if I was off work and looking forward to playing this and waiting for Naughty Dog to fix it...man...that would have been frustrating.

The fact that GAF found out a solution to fix it seemingly before Naughty Dog did was nice, but for me that would have been even more frustrating that a gaming forum found a potential fix before the developer of the game did.
 
Sucks for everyone who was effected by such a silly glitch... Server issues affecting saving really? But in any case, I'm not so disappointed that I'm stuck at work waiting to play anymore! Saved me some stress.

Your existing save is fine, just continue from there.
 
Is anybody else having an audio problem? It's making my sound system "cackle". I've swapped other games in and it's definitely TLOU only.
