Manual Save Mod

[iLLuzions]

anybody knows if the guy who programmed it is going to update it?
obviously does not work with the new version

[Therk]

dont even know mods are a thing for this game

definetly need a manual save mod
or devs could just made it so that game saves when you wait/rest in the world

[Silverhawk]

They seriously need to add manual saving, or I just can't play this game.

*edit*

I just checked and I was wrong below.
There is a save on exit in permadeath. I assumed there wasn't because of all the threads about not being able to save.

--------------
The reason I agree isn't because for me it makes a difference in-game. It doesn't. I play permadeath and I like it.

It is because if I get interrupted IRL during a Stoneshard session I either have to leave the PC on until I get back, or abandon the session.
That's just inconvenient.

There's no save on quit for permadeath?

You can manually save, it's a bit long winded as it involves copying your save file, but it is easy enough to do and it works.

[iLLuzions]

yeah no interest on longwinded things, just talking about the posssible revival of the mod

It's pretty fast, have the two folders open in the background, Escape-save out of the gane to the main menu, alt-tab and copy over the file. Go back into the game. Just mildly annoying enough that it doesn't invite savescumming but good enough to save on every floor of the dungeon or before the boss.

That ceased to be true years ago. It has had save on exit for a very very long time. Might want to edit your post now that you know you have been actively spreading misinformation. Just so other people don't accidentally read it an get confused.

[deMangler]

I'll check next time I'm at my pc.
I thought that was not available when playing permadeath.
Will edit post of course if incorrect.

if the devs want to keep the hardcore no cheese gameplay, do it the KCD style, and add a save potion that you can craft

you should be able to save wherever you want and as such i dont understand why the devs are so vehemently aganist it and havent implemented it yet after year(s) of the community beging for this feature. The game is hardcore as is, no need to add real life and technical issues (crashes) to the mix, those could be prevented by propper save system

Yeah, sure. And what's the most downloaded mod of all time for Kingdom Come? Yup, "Unlimited Saving."
It's the same in every game with this kind of dumb as f*** save system. Except for a very small percentage of players who, for whatever reason, like things being tedious, the vast majority of people hate it.

it adds tension, simple as that. like, when you make it from a run, wounded and tired, but with a bag full of loot, stumbling through a forest, praying not to get ambushed, I mean thats why we play those games no? if you need unlimited saves or a crosshair for a bow in a game like KCD, you should play something else imo.

So....
What are people actually talking about when they are complaining about the save system, because there does seem do be some strong feeling about it?

[Skullywag]

The issue is with a game as punishing as this one where "trying again but use a different strategy" is key to learning how to play it, this process of stop start is infuriating when the last save you had was an hour ago, its simply "lost time" in a single player game, im not a hardcore player but after getting ganged up on in the first dungeon the 1st run, dying, reloading at the village, trying again, getting hit by a trap I was stood next to and being set on fire, dying, reloading back at the village, trying again, dying to the boss, reloading back in the village, im done until a manual save mod is out. I dont have the time in the day to spend it clicking across fields and forests just to get back where I was. I guarantee this game would do better if it catered to players of differing skill levels and who have different amounts of time they can put towards it. But for now this update is not for me as I dont fit into "player type" it targets.

Just because you have unlimited time to waste doesn't mean the rest of us do.
