A:I Safe Haven SAVEGAMES!?

[Guybrush]

I think they should have told us that there is no possibility to save your progress - unless you stay in the game and complete the mission in one go (and its a big one with 10 tasks!). Or am I missed some "load last savegame"?!
Just buyed Safe Haven and liked it but i simply don't have enough time to play it at a stretch...
Once I shut the game down, all my savegames are lost - thats realy not funny :-(

Didn't played the DLC s because I'm in the maingame!
But I agree that is not funny because there is a savestation!
So if it doesn't save on the pc, why is there a savestation and not just a autosave after any task?

You have to pay 2500 Points to use the savestation, thats ok for me. But now it seems that you can only load the saved game while playing the mission. Once you shut down the hole game and return later you are not able to load the last saved like in the main game.
Ok, the DLC is made to "manage all 10 Missions with ONE life" but.................
sucks :-/

I agree that they should have given an option to save progress but that's not what they were going for. Safe Haven and the other survivor DLCs are meant to be incredibly hard on purpose. I wish I had known that before buying them because I love the game to pieces but can't play the DLC for crap. The difficulty is just too high and no saves is just too much. But again, that's what they wanted. Something brutal to really test people. I'd rather have more story DLC instead of leaderboard speed run stuff though.

True, true Superhans... Agree 100%

Safe Haven does have a save station in it to keep you from repeating the whole thing all over again. Those saves are deleted if you leave the game though, so you still need to complete it in one session.

That said, completing it doesn't take too long. About 30-40 minutes for the averege player that only goes for the missions. An hour for people who are also interested in exploration and loot.

If you can devode an hour to playing it, there shouldn't be a problem with beating Safe Haven. The other DLC are much shorter. If you can't, then yeah, I suppose buying the DLC is not a good deal for you.

Yes, 40 minutes of pure time - but for me in fact it was about 3 hours even using saves. So this DLC is only for weekends... long weekend nights...
And the most awful "death" was "ai.exe stopped working" =)))))

Ok, that may be true BROOD-SkorpioN. I'll keep trying. Sadly I also have the same problem as burivuh. Sometimes my AI crashes. I don't know why; there seems to be a window in background with a message but I only see the cursor changeing to windows default in the middle of the screen and not the message. If i click the center AI closes. If i click somewhere else AI freezes. In the standart mission with savegame that was no problem for me, just start again and action. In this DLC that could be a real big problem...

By the way: This "savegame-issue" is the only thing i don't like. I absolutly love Alien: Isolation and i realy like this DLC too!

I can’t even save at the save station even though I have almost 10k points. The save station just won’t let me save.
