StaceyPowers Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I have had seemingly unrelated problems involving freezing on manual saving in both The Outer Worlds and Skyrim on PS5. I have seen some people complaining about similar problems in other games on PS5 as well. Does anyone know if this is a widespread issue on this system? Are these problems related, or coincidental?

Heatman Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 I think that it's a general problem with Skyrim because I have seen multiple complaints of the same issues from other gamers. One guy mentioned about losing all his 4 manual saves after creating a new character and it autosaved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 That's an issue with your game, my friend that owns a PS5, who gifted me PS4, doesn't encounter such kind of manual save bug playing his favourite games. At least I've watched him play 'FIFA 22, GT 7 without experiencing such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Depends on the game, not all of them. I hear many can't save. I've seen so many comments about that second boss bricking savegames in metroid vania. Yeesh, I was really looking forward to this game on PC but think I'll wait.

Clasher Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Freezing happens to a few games even on ps4 when you want to manual save. For the PS5 I think it has to do with the video game itself as I haven't really heard any complain about such freeze from people I know who actually owns a PS5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Not sure what it could be. Could be something to do with your internal storage maybe. If it freezes up when you try to save it might be the hard drive. Maybe the file is corrupt or you don't have enough space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever it is that's their problem with games and manual saves in Playstation 5, I certainly hope that they would have all of that problem fixed by the time I get my own Playstation 5. I'm stressing it because I'm a big fan of mauanl saves than autosaves in all my games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 That's what I like about PC gaming over to other platform you have more free around you to avle to save and do more, even if you saved the game.. You can go into your files where the saved files are and copy and double save the fies again LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killamch89 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 To be fair, I've had this issue with Skyrim and the Outer Worlds on PC and it just magically sorts itself out over time. That being said, it's difficult to answer this one as I personally haven't heard any PS5 owners I know or have encountered mention this issue. Have you tried to find a possible fix on any gaming sites/ Youtube/Playstation forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 It seems freezing issues on PS5, like in The Outer Worlds and Skyrim, might be widespread. They could be related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
