Wow I just played this from midnight to 7 and I'm terrified to turn it off because I have the bug and I have no idea when I got it.
Fuck!
Fuck!

haha oh boy.
Is it possible to load my save with auto saves off, then only manual save when I want to quit playing? That'll work right?

Man, it almost sounds like someone sent the wrong version of the game to manufacturing.
When I pick this up I'll restart to disable the auto save and then only manually save before I quit the game (plan on pausing it a lot though)
My hope is that if they did send the wrong version to manufacturing they just have to replace the game executable, which I wouldn't think would be all that big file size wise, and would be quick to spot\fix.

Guys it's just a trick to get us to play the multiplayer all weekend so they can test the servers.

funny enough i decided to play some pokemon yesterday and was thinking how annoying that pokemon has no autosave and you have manual save.
welp indeed. hopefully this will be fixed by the weekend (doubt it).
Now if only ps3 had a 'sleep mode'

Pretty frustrating, having waited a year to play this game, buying it on release day.... and all I get is more waiting time, reading this thread with the game in front of me, hoping for a quick fix.
Come on Naughty Dog, I CAN'T HOLD OFF MUCH LONGER

Lol I hope you are not being serious.
God knows. It somehow broke in the last couple of days.
Oh yeah what i played so far is fantastic. But i don't really want to play the same section again 3 hours after playing it the first time.

Got the glitch again, getting tired of all this rebooting.
Me.
I'm about 10 hours in, started playing yesterday and have played across four play sessions switching the console off in between each. Two today, two yesterday.

Happened to me often to be honest. Yesterday the auto-save feature froze and my console bleeped three times and shutdown all by itself :/ When I started it again the save file was corrupted, but thankfully I always save a copy manually so I just lost an hour or so.

auto-save's never been my friend. i've never trusted it, & never will (& i always disable it if possible)...

Just encountered it but thankfully, it had only JUST taken place so I didn't lose any progress but still, this is shit. Killed my mood. That's it for me today, I'll continue on tomorrow.

Thanks for the tip OP, I'll be sure to save early & often.
EDIT: They should have gone with ink ribbons.

I didn't have the save issues, my problems were far worse. But it seems to be just me
Here is the thread about it in r/games. They are usually fairly quick to update.
Edit: A guy said he got it to work by loading the actual save file instead of using 'Continue'. Be aware that timestamps are messed up so you can try them all.

I really wanted to get this and play this weekend. Now I'll stay away until next weekend. Feel for people losing hours and hours or progress.
No, I haven't downloaded the patch as my PS3 is offline.
I thought everyone confirmed the patch wasn't the issue, though? For what it matters, I've had no issues yesterday or today, I do not have the patch and I do not have PS Plus.

Didn't Naughty Dog's 4th PS2 game (Jak X) have a similar saving problem? It's a curse, isn't it?

Is there any way to void the bug? If I don't save at all for 4 hours, that is first ever session with no save file, will be I OK for those 4 hours?

Should be fixed in a patch pretty soon, honestly.

Things don't just randomly break without being tinkered with. The build they put on the disc has a severe error and this is not something that could have started up just a few days ago without some sort of hotfix or patch to break it.
Hopefully they can sort this out by the time I get home from work but as of now this is pretty bad... like worse than unplaytested indie game bad.

If you turn off autosaves, are there still checkpoints if you die?
Or clear your weekend and never turn the game off.
I guess this is where the PS4's suspend feature would come in handy.
I can see suspend keeping glitches like this hidden for a lot longer than they normally would be.

From my experience in the gaming industry, in the large majority of these cases QA likely did pick it up. Their job is to find the bugs, not make the call on whether to fix them or not. A bug slipping through to release isn't usually QA's fault. Someone higher up usually decides "ship it, patch it later."
