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

Finally my slow ass Internet conection came through for me. It took so damn long to download the game that I was able to see this thread before playing the game. Just lost like 10 minutes.

So, don't download the current patch? Right?

I got it twice in 4 hours of playing. So, until it makes the game unplayable for me, no reason to stop.

So you're fucked either way. Welcome to the post-apocalypse of gaming.
Oh man, if Naughty Dog intentionally let this through...shitstorm incoming.
i think people reported that it happens even without the patch!
It was fucked before hte patch

Wow, pretty shocked by what I'm reading in this thread. I expected this game to be super polished.
We'll never know. Do you really think there's just gonna say, "Oh hey guys. We left the autosave bug in on the release candidate because we're too damn lazy. Sorry you got stuck with the results!"

Grr, thanks. I was hoping on picking it up today.

Glad to hear that ND is working on it now. Hopefully, they patch it today.

That's good to hear. He is narrowing down the issue by asking users to play it different states e.g. offline. Please look over the twitter and respond if anyone followed his steps.
He is asking questions.
https://twitter.com/cbalestra@PSTrueGamer Can you signed out, launch the game, stay offline and play. I need to know if the problem still occurs. Thanks

I always do this anyway. Guess my paranoia works out for once.
It's up to you, but the glitch won't fix itself. If you want to try and finish it in one sitting, do it i guess. Other than that, quit as soon as you notice to minimise the amount of gameplay lost.

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
Yikes!
Guess I'll wait then.

No don't play the game at all until the glitch is fixed as it impacts both patched and unpatched versions.

Might have been more on Sony than ND - it's damn hard for a 3rd party developer to get past Sony certification QA with a major save issue. Sony might get more lax with their own studios.
Why would it? I don't have my save upload enabled, so I can't imagine how merely my PS+ status would affect anything.
Yep, people selected it to on and off having the same issue.

OK, I'm done. It seems to get worse as I go on. Game is unplayable, glitch kicks in as soon as I start playing. This was shaping up to be my favorite game of this gen and now thanks to this it became my most frustrating experience with a game in years.

Sorry, yeah I see that now.
Is it possible that the game tries to make a connection when the game autosaves and it fails. I don't know why it would be doing something like that when autosaving, but maybe that's why he's asking if it works without being signed in.

Ha. I posted the link to this thread on the Naughty Dog facebook group and they deleted it immediately.
They're really not the developer that people make them out to be.

Ridiculous to expect a game that works ? People have lost quite a lot of hours because of this and have to play again for that many hours to get to the point they were at. Surely you are joking, but then again with your avatar, i don't know.

Jesus Christ. I was able to clear out some game time as my Father's Day gift from my wife and this shit is happening.

PM a mod or something. We need him in here.
The game works but seeing people compare it to essentially an unplayable broken mess is a little extreme.
I've never had PS+ and got it =[
Huh? The reactions seem entirely reasonable to me.

Exactly. This game is unplayable for me, as the bug comes back at the same spots - manual saves are doing nothing. I'd say a broken game warrants some frustration.
They want no bad PR leaking out and becoming mainstream on release day. Not surprising.

Another weird thing... I saw the update last night, cancelled it, and today it's not prompting me to update. And I'm pretty sure I don't have the fancy PS+ autoupdate thing enabled...
Also I'm on a 40GB second-generation Phat, and I've had no problems so far... and I believe I've manually saved once. I've also created a new save to play through the opening again, and that's working fine too.

Not being able to save properly means the game is fundamentally broken.

I spent $60 on a new game. I'd expect it to, at the very least, save my progress. This is kind of a big one to miss.
