Yes the game update is released. Seems the save/load function is completely broken. I am trying to reinstall now to see any help. Lost my pretty base in doing so but that is no big issue, it was just to learn a bit anyway.
Uh, we released the Xbox version on May 17th. So, it hasn't even been 2 months yet.
dude close enough lol and a word thats been on everyones minds "bout time" thought might as well write how everyone thinking XD anyways joking aside its good to see its happening thought it was gonna be another month honestly
Possibly. I was prompted to download it but it breaks the game. Wouldn't advise downloading it if you are planning on playing it until it's fixed
Then again it could be a Xbox Preview Program problem for all I know.
You're in the Xbox preview program too?
Has any non preview members downloading the patch and not had their game broken?
what do you mean? isn't everyone on xbox on preview?
No.
The game preview program is totally different to the Xbox preview program
Those in the Xbox preview program get beta versions of the dashboard software and test features before they get released to everyone. Game preview is when everyone can test a game before it is finished.
Oh wow, excitement about new update now gone! The joy and happiness of waiting for the update to complete has now crash landed in a unknown world of broken underwater darkness.
70+hours of game saves will not load, once in 'Load Game' menu I can't not go back to previous menu. Started a new game in 'hardcore' (least amount of hours playing in this mode) and right at the start I realized not much in performance was done, leading me to believe this somehow accidentally got released being that @Squeal_Like_A_Pig mentioned there were pertinence issue with build sent to MS for cert. Regardless after saving 30mins of progress, and tried to reload I was unable to. Again being unable to go back to main menu ultimately having to close down or quit game from the Xbox dash to exit out of game.
With in the game on a side note just worth mentioning, buttons have been reconfigured, PDA or in game inventory screen had no visible items or outlines of inventory slots but I was able to still scroll through items... Frame rate was still just as bad, if not worse, I can't imagine what it would have been like if I had a base built.
Again over all, this cannot be the build intended to be released. Good luck Devs, you have your work cut out for yourselves. Thank you for trying and God speed!
Great game I love every aspect of it, and up until now I didnt feel like it was nessasry for me say something about the game. But it is the weekend and I am a bit butt hurt after having so much hope that this was a surprise polished build/update. Guess the joke is on is.

weird, I am not getting an update prompt on my system
You are lucky then. If you are using instant on mode I would recommend you turn automatic updates off otherwise the patch may download overnight and break your game.
Starting a new game in hard core mode will save the game on exit and it will bring the load menu back but you still can't load any saves. This is now the most broken game ever.

Do you have the game installed on internal hard drive or external hard drive? Wonder if that would make a difference.

if you say a game is the most broken game ever beacause of an issue that will be fixed soon you never played a really broken game Ft: NES games
There may be some problems with saving and loading in the update. We are still investigating the extent of the issue and addressing the problems as fast as possible. We will provide more information as soon as we have it.
I received the update and am able to play the game. Here is what I did since I already read this thread. I did not attempt to load my save or even start the game. I first went to game management and deleted my save info from everywhere and from local. Upon starting the game I was able to play a new game. Issues I encountered are a sound file playing continually. It is the sound you hear when you sit on top of one of those purple coral that release air bubbles. The bubble sound and the gasping for air sound is play constantly regardless of what I am doing or where I am.
Aw bugger, I'm in preview and instant on is active, dreading powering up now, really don't know what to do. Should I not play till it's sorted? Or test it out? don't really want to lose all my work if I don't have to.
Could we have a Bit of feedback from Devs as to wether they expect xboxes to require a fresh start, as it were, or would pre update save data be able to be incorporated into the "new" version?

when you save the game, does it allow you to reload it?

I tried it and got stuck in the load menu, won't try again till they fix it or suggest a fix on here at least, all part of the process tho so no sour grapes here, just a bit disappointed.

Not that I know of. There are some missing textures and the frame rate still isn't the greatest.
The update was about 5GB
