Give us a manual save

[Lorathor]

I lost so much progress and so many resources on missions just because I was not able to save properly but I had to stop the game. I can not play for multiple hours grinding away and being on the game all the time. And in some missions the save rooms are sparse and/or expensive. I understand the mechanic and I do like it but man, having to reload or seeing your resources vanish is not fun at all.

+1. And btw your game crash. Losing hours of progression. Dropped game only couse it don`t have manual save.

[F.O.A.D.]

+1.

From the depths of my third world country I would also plead for an exit save at least. We get planned blackouts to our electricity supply, and sometimes I absolutely HAVE to stop playing for that reason.

Didn't one of the Devs Fess up and say they tried to implement it and effed it up? They done effed the game and released it anyway as good , greedy, inconsiderate, corporate cucksucking potatos that they are. Let's se if that gets through

[FroBodine]

Yes, please add a manual save at any time. Not having one just is just ridiculous.

Yes. People who dont share your preference about games are totally evil and greedy (sarcasm!). Tons of games dont have manual save, so GROW UP and stop whining like a 2yo. Devs never hid the fact that this game has no manual save (actually it does, its called "resting"), if you bought the game NOT KNOWING what you were buying, then the blame is on YOU, not the devs!

Only manual save in the game is resting. I save the game about 6 times during each mission. In other words, i dont want to lose hours of progression either, thats why i save many times during missions, so should you.

Although I bought the game, on principle I generally avoid strategy games that say "by design, we don't believe in manual game saves" because it just ain't realistic.

On buggy TBS game Element Space, many of us begged for even just ONE overwriting quicksave slot, which you can't really SCUMMSAVE with. We just wanted some allowance for the realities of a buggy game making us replay 30-45-60 minutes because of no manual save, or getting busy in the middle of a one-hour mission map. They wouldn't budge and eventually abandoned further support on that game.

So I hope these devs are better listeners. :D

You do understand that EVERY time you rest, the game autosaves, EVERY time. In other words you can MANUALLY trigger an autosave, as in you CAN manually save. What you want is already in the game.

Reading your comment you make it sound like saving during missions is impossible, that simply is NOT TRUE.

There is a mod in nexusmod

Too bad the latest patch broke the savegames even while resting in the docks part II

Let's stop pretending that a "manual save" which consumes scarce in-game resources is a "manual save" in the traditional sense. It's not.

If the game is designed like this - with a "rest" system that requires players to save economically and strategically - the devs are hoping to reduce gamers' tendency to save at a frequency they're comfortable with, period. In other words: it takes the concept of saving out of the realm of "tool through which players interact with the game world," and into the realm of gameplay. The save itself becomes a gameplay idea.

...which I loathe. Why do I loathe it? Because I've got a career, a wife, several kids and several pets. Sh*t comes up. I don't simply save games because I want to "scum it," protecting my next move. I save so that I can set the game aside and live. I can't stand being punished, in gameplay terms, for needing to pause progress in a multi-hour mission.

Girls brought to cry! I have already rejected so many games because of the presence of saving in any place.
I haven't bought this game yet - I will only buy this game if
1. If you stay inside only the preservation in the rooms.
2. fix all bugs.
