Starfield.. Really trying to enjoy this game, but I cant even play it. Im stuck in space combat against the crimson fleet ghost in olympus. All of my save slots are exactly in the same position so I cant load a new game unless I want to revert to the very beginning on Vectra.
Seems like the only way to escape the battle is to grav jump away, but I cant do that either because I respawn with severe ship damage and crimson fleet shooting at me from behind. I have less than one second to pause, find a star system, unpause - switch power to grav drive and then wait to jump. Wtf bethesda…
I already encountered this once, on a different mission, and after 16 tries I was finally able to jump out. That time I had about 5 seconds and bearly made it out.
Never have I EVER played a game that was physically impossible to… well… play. Great job, Mass Effect Andromeda is 10x better and didnt take TWENTY FIVE years to make.
I didnt even know to check that tbh.
Because I loaded it on two different consoles, it happened automatically.
This loop happened directly after a grav jump… away from another combat loop. Im a new player, between looking up solutions on reddit (game paused) and trying to escape, yeah the 10 min auto feature went off and saved.
It took me 2 days (I have a kid) to get out of the first loop, in doing so, I would load it on different consoles (living room & bedroom). Thus taking up the other save slots??
If I had known the save slots would be overwritten i wouldn’t have a problem now. I had one saved from 7 days ago (LR console) and it was over written on my BR console??
Shouldn’t autosave just occupy one slot???
I mean I wanted to try and get out of it without loading another slot. I can only play like an hour at a time these days so i would have to quit, load it back and retry another day. Doing that on 2 different consoles messed it up. I never touched autosave features or loaded an old save.
I had just escaped another loop with a grav jump to a nearby system. They immediately followed me and started firing, i had no health and no parts to repair. Thats where I loaded into a new zone. Its gotta be the game all I did was play it for crying out loud.
Loaded the game on 2 different consoles on multiple occasions, i had no idea it would occupy the other slots… I actually had a backup save and it was overwritten by whatever the frick happened here
I played the same profile on two different consoles, so that might explain why it took up the other slots. Which is no error on my part, I think.
The error bethesda provides is the respawn timing and placement. Instead of setting me back a good 10 seconds for buffer, it drops me exactly when my ship gets blown up. No way out.
Each time I changed the difficulty, I would just die faster and while trying to escape the loop, autosave locked me in. Inching me closer into the loop.
It could have respawned me to when I made first contact with the ships. I love bethesda games so much, but this combat loop issue sucks bad.
Edit (I have only played doom and wolfenstein from bethesda)
