PS4 Save Files Consistently Corrupting

PSN does not do refunds, they will tell you to shove it basically. I tried on the second day.

I’ve been playing since the pre-order came in. Luckily have vacation the next few weeks and was just grinding this like mad. Tried to get on tonight? Game kept saying “Game load Failed”. Restarted my PS4 to maybe try again… This time when I went to load my last save? It deleted everything during the loading process… Man… Just lost 50 plus hours of game time. Even with all the bugs I was still enjoying it, but this is too much. Not a great way to push this out on a base that was waiting patiently for this…and then this is what we get??? No way I can get a refund now too. Ultimate burn…not happy in the least Warhorse.

dam thats painful, am sorry for what happen.

happened to me once lost about 20h or something so i made a new one and now i constantly back up my save file every 3h

Been playing since my preorder came in. Got around 90 hours in it. Absolutely loved the game. Started a quest where it prompts saying “there’s no turning back now”. Crashed to home screen and corrupted the entire game to the point I had to reinstall it. Definitely putting this game down for a couple months. Hopefully it’ll be patched up. Too disappointed to restart my entire game.

I hate to hear that. but I feel ya…welcome to the club. I had all the treasure maps found. Best gear for my playstyle as well as the best gear Ididn’t use…tons of money and skills perfect. Was ready to enjoy the endgame. Same thing happened…just mine was the day after the first patch for the PS4. Really takes the joy out of it instantly. Even my back up data on the external drive became corrupted and unable to use…lost all the main console data.

Sounds like I am going to be backing up my save files next time I log on!

I said the same thing…hence why I used a external drive. Heard rumors that a save glitch was killing files. Alas it didn’t help me. Even the back up files became corrupted. I doubt those files will even be good when they fix it. It really is pointless to start over with the in game coding this level of bad or game breaking. Best to just wait till they for sure fix this before starting a game or continuing. Just to be safe.

Yikes!
It would be nice to have an official acknowledgment by WH that this is a known issue.

110% agree…

Did you happen to do the Red Baron side quest? I’ve been reading that particular quest is to blame.

I never touched the quest, and every single one of my saves corrupted at the same exact time. It was during the pestilence quest

I completed the Rober baron quest with no issues. Did several more quests. Got off and on that same day after with no issues. The first patch happened that night while I was asleep. Got on the next day to play after patch and bam…the stuff mentioned above. I don’t think it is one quest. There a multitude of bugs everywhere. I’m thinking the patch on consoles really messed some stuff up making the issues worse.

a me è successa la stessa cosa , 40 ore di gioco perse. direi di aspettare le patch ma mi è passata la voglia di giocarci.

the same thing happened to me, 40 hours of play lost. I would say waiting for the patches but I had the desire to play with it.

me too… me too

(PS4 Pro) Q: House of God …and savegame broken / all saves effected + can’t save anymore

Even after trimming save files so I have 15 or less, starting to get fatal CE crashes more. Few things more frustrating than finishing off bandits and Cuman at one of their battle spawn points, managing all their loot and then crash. :flushed::confounded::face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Might need to stop playing until WH rolls out a fix

This may be a dumb question but can a game actually corrupt the PlayStation 4 hard drive? Kingdom Come is the only game I had been playing for the past two weeks and now my PS4 hard drive seems to have either died or is corrupted. I hadn’t noticed any corrupt save files but on Saturday I used the schnapps for the first time as all of my previous saves were auto and from sleeping in a bed. Then I closed the game and later that day I wanted to copy some video files to a flash drive so I went to the console’s settings, clicked on storage and the Ps4 turned off and now only boots into safe mode. Perhaps it has nothing at all to do with this or any game but with all the bugs being reported I was just curious if a game could do that. My PS4 is only eight months old and I’ve tried every safe mode menu option other than re-initializing which I know wipes the drive; I was hoping I could rescue my Kingdom Come data (do not want to start over) along with everything else I might have now lost (like AC Origins among others). Unfortunately, I have nothing backed up and I’m not a PS Plus subscriber; I guess I have to back up all console save files to a flash drive (and then to my PC) going forward :disappointed:

Not sure if this would have been better in its own thread but I thought maybe it was related to saves corrupting. Perhaps that’s a stretch as it may have nothing at all to do with the game; I don’t know much about these things. I’m just beyond frustrated right now thinking I lost everything on my hard drive. Thanks.

UPDATE: Doing more research I came across stories about a Rainbow Six update causing some PS4 hard drives to become corrupt which now really makes me wonder if Kingdom Come did do something. If it is save related I would have to assume it is tied to use the schnapps since I used that for the first time on the day my PS4 hard drive broke.

As far as fixing the ps4 save crash issue, should be in the next patch:

PS4 just lost 50+ hours of gameplay said save files were corrupted on loading and I am pissed. This is some serious bullshit I thought this game was great until it undermined me like a host nation. Worst part is PSN doesn’t give refunds thanks to legalese BS passing the buck to the developers. The developers need to compensate people who got fucked over like this maybe 100K shekels to start a new character with along with something that moves all the stats up to 10 so players that put time in don’t have to start from scratch. I for one am not going to play this game unless they do that as meaninglessly progressing through what I just did a week ago will be completely joyless.
