Corrupt auto save system

[SilentFentanyl]

Has anyone found a fix for the ongoing auto saves getting corrupt? I know it's actually a Mass Effect Andromeda issue. It happens with 0 mods. Gets real annoying having to rely on manual saves or forgetting to manual save and lose hours of play time.

I've logged 580 hours (over half-a-dozen playthroughs).

Never had this issue and never heard of others having it either, so no idea what you're talking about.

This issue has been on reddit and in the official mass effect andromeda forums. 100's of players gotten it. It seems most pointed it to dying causing the glitch.

If only "hundreds" of the hundreds-of-thousands of players have run into this, then I'm guessing it's related to a system config issue and not the game itself.

 

Can you supply a DXDiag report? Might be something there that points to the problem.

 

Meanwhile, as I'm in the middle of another playthrough at the moment, I'll see what happens when I only load the autosaves.

 

(You are talking about just using the "Resume" option after getting wiped-out, right?)

If i play for a few hours and have died during one of them autosaves. When i go to load a certain autosave it hangs at the loading screen and never loads. But if i load a game from a auto save where before i didn't die, it'll load. In those forums the only fix they know is to never load any auto saves after dying. I know the dirext x issue you're referring to but that isn't it. I don't get any game crashes. It can be avoidable by not allowing to die and keep on playing.

Well, as I said I'll try allowing myself to die and load the autosaves after that and see what happens.

 

But a DXDiag report can identify much, much more than just DX problems. Please provide one.
