StaceyPowers Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 What is the worst experience you’ve had because of an autosave? For example, a game with no manual saves autosaving in a glitchy location or after you blew all your supplies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrik Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 In GTA 4, the mission where you have to decide if you want to kill Derrick or Francis Mcreary, i killed Francis and regretted that later, but i couldn't load a previous save to pass the mission again because i always had autosave enabled in the game, Francis offers money and removing wanted stars feature when Derrick offers nothing (and dies later ._.)

skyfire Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Plenty of times lost the save data. And even it was not recoverable. some of the time auto saved data was not usable too. it happened with a lot of games to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Death and lost progress. It's why now, I turn that fucking feature off on any and every game I play that has it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 About to be killed and autosave kicks in so every time you reload that saved file, you die instantaneously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 In the hit of a gun fight battle when it's very important that nothing interrupts my shooting and autosave decides it's the best time to kick in. I'm pissed already 😒. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Only once has this happen. I was playing baten kaitos (rpg) and I saved. No warning or anything but right afterwards there was a big fight that I was totally unprepared and under leveled. I tried to win but never got close, and I couldn't exit to level up. I had to restart my game. Now every time I'm given an option to choose which file to save my game I always alternate between two save files.

Demon_skeith Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I haven't had anything major bad, but it has made it hard to save scrub thanks to all the auto save feature in games these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor1911 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 It is really painful when the last saving point is when you were getting some bullets on your ass. It had happened to me once or twice but Killamch89 really had good experiences with it. 😆 @KillMajor47 @killamch89will better explain his side of this story. 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I have gaming Alzheimer disease 😆, and most of the time I forget to save the plot, but still it's far far better than autosaving in such a nasty time.😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The developers try their hard to make games as smooth as possible. But autosaving really spoils the whole show. 😆 There should be some logic, when the battle is finished then only the game should get saved, not in between a battle while getting punches of our faces. Lol 😁😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol 😁😆 If it's possible for them (The developers) to work in a sequence with which the autosave comes in, it may actually help give the gamers clue when it's about to happen so they be prepared for it.
