Autosave is too frequent and can't be adjusted on ironman mode. Highly irritating to have autosave stop the game every few minutes.

The point of ironman is that it autosaves every month so to stop you from save scumming.

Are you able to read?

I take it you haven't played any other grand strat games, then, cause it's exactly the same.

Tip: don't bother playing on ironman until you're used to the game. Achievements are meaningless, really.

No, the performance impact of saving the game is not the same in every game, and isn't desirable here. A youtuber hit the same thing, in the yogcivilization channel. Turned of Iron Man mode because "of course! Why not?",then irritated by the very frequent gameplay interruptions.

I love playing on ironman mode on all strategy games. Not just for the achievements but because it just feels right.

This is ust getting on my nerves.

Saving every 6 or 12 months would be ok (like CK2) but every month.....

I agree with OP... at least I think I do... anyway, in my case I wish to play Ironman and enjoy the mode, but would prefer is the save was adjustable so it was not so frequent, even if that meant I needed to play in longer sessions. It is so fast the game halts so often it is very annoying... if you could adjust it so the save is less often but kept all the rest of the ironman rules that would be cooler/

Exactly this. Decided to play in Ironman mode, changed speed to the fastest one and BAM. Now it autosaves every 5 seconds, taking 2 seconds to save. Literally unplayable, I'd say.

Yep but thats a part of ironman people. A (anti cheat) for achivements.

So turn off ironman mode? Its not that hard

Then you can totally disable autosaving if needed. Or set it to annual/semiannual

Just have to do manual ironman lol.

I agree OP. I believe save scumming is bad but the annoyance of autosaving makes the game unplayable. I would appriciate if I could enjoy playing the game while achievements at the same time.

I agree it saves way too often and is constantly pausing it gets annoying fast. This could be tweaked and or adjustable to even be manual save and or save on exit.

yeah off course or you download something els that enabled all archivements but he i do not care it just a way to play the game. And a little harder to get things done for archivement. And thats the way it needs to be. In every game.
