I know I've said it before elsewhere. But I figure this may help others experiencing the same issues we've come across in our play sessions.
BEST PRACTICES:
I know it's sounds like a ridiculous amount of time to wait when there's so much to explore and play with. But our patience in waiting is allowing us to continue our games on our ends without a ton of glitches. And yes, we've figured it out the hard way. Here's to hoping your games become more stable like ours and a patch that fixes these bugs comes soon. :-)
Infinite saving game glitch:
This is where the save icon is present forever. The game greys out the save button. Scenery and creatures may not spawn. FPS may drop (rare?). The only way out of this scenario is to return to main Xbox dash board and force the game to close or unplug the console. Which both causes more issues down the road like main menu freezing and never loading etc etc... See this post for how I fixed my scenario: https://forums.unknownworlds.com/discussion/comment/2391284#Comment_2391284https://forums.unknownworlds.com/discussion/comment/2391284#Comment_2391284
BEST PRACTICES:
- Always save in your base/escape pod.
- Always save when nothing is happening. (Don't be moving around!)
- When you press save, wait for it to give you the controls back. Then press pause and wait for it to finish. (if you don't, it may cause the infinite saving game glitch. see below)
- Save twice just in case.
- Saving in your Cyclops works too. (Just be sure you're not loading into the game with a predator leviathan that spawns near / on you when you reload)

Again not sure if it even does anything, but that's how I played and never had any major issues, in fact barely any issues whatsoever.
