Game crashing on Nintendo switch

Since last weekend I am playing Below Zero on my switch & having a lot of fun.
Unfortunatly the game keeps crashing every 10-20 minutes. No consistency when it will happen: underwater or on land, while listening to a audio recording or manufacturing or when saving (at least the save game was not destroyed/corrupted yet)
Anyone else with the same problem or tips for troubleshooting?
(The ingame reporting tool goes into error 30s after submitting, showing a mesage that the servers are not available)

There is a memory issue where it still retains where you've been versus clearing it like in the original. The stutters from the original were from it reallocating the memory but not crashing, but below zero crashes when it gets into heavier zones due to memory not being freed up as intended. Further proving it's a memory issue is if your are to save before you feel a crash coming and exit and load in without quitting the game, the game will crash because it didnt reset the memory as intended and only closing out the game will fix it.
Just observations I've noticed when playing it. Alot of the memory issues occur if you travel 1k and back or in varying directions along with going up or down... I was relocating my base and it crashed after I got to my new base 1.2k away everytime. Sometimes I would survive and crash halfway back but there is definitely a memory leak somewhere and guessing its procedural.
The first two times were crashes when they hadn't saved in hours and autosave failed. they didn't realize there is no autosave. The third time they manually saved every fifteen minutes or so, and managed to play for 8 hours without a crash. But then they started having the issues with the base legs disappearing. And then doors started opening and closing without the animation of the door swinging back and forth. And as of this morning, the game now crashes immediately after loading their saved game.
They really LOVE this game, but these save failures have really demoralized them and they don't really trust the game any more. When will we get a fix for this problem?
Will there ever be an option to load an older saved game to get around a corrupted save file?
Same, i log out in my survival save and now all my saves don't start

Since i came back from Aurora some strange bugs appears at my base. (Checked all rooms in Aurora and got some blueprints there. No issues in Aurora. I did open all doors also the captains cabine)
Now, back to my base following happens.
1. Can't enter the "seemotte" anymore. No "A" button is showing up
2. Can't pick up items i've dropped
3. Can't enter the device builder pattform. No "A" button is showing up.
4. Can't pick up e.g. "yellow plant"
5. Can't build/deconstruct base-parts like platforms or any other.
6. In my base, i can't take poster from the wall. "No "A" button appears. (But i can use all devices in the base)
7. Scanner room, camera viewer shows super wired textures.
- restarting the game or drowning does not help
- changing languages in game or system language does not help
- leaving the area like, visiting the island via the portal won't help either
if i leave the area for e.g 200m and then come back to the base, sometimes i can enter "seemotte/builderplattform" once, but if i leave it again the "A" button is not showing up. Same for all other devices/items. Leaving the base for 200m helps but as soon as i come back and enter one plattform once the bug appears again.
Today I was playing and got quite a lot done (didn’t save for ca. an hour or so) and then I attacked a fish and the game crashed.
Please fix this
Two of my hardcore playthroughs got enden by crashes. No save feature makes harcore not a viable mode in this port.
I was now far into 19h survivor playthrough and my game crashed and corrupted the file. It crashes when I load the save.
This port, and by the sound of it BZ as well, were not ready to be realeased on switch.
Wait, a fix is gonna be released in a few days
Yep. The same thing (or a similar thing) is happening to me. I have a base next to the tree in the Lost River. I loaded up my Cyclops and descended the path behind the tree to the Inactive Lava Zone. Once the tunnel opened up into a cavern (where the Lava Castle is located), I jumped in my Prawn suit and started exploring, making sure to save before I got into danger.
Aaaaaaand now my game is once again crashing when I try to load my save. It stops at:
Loading... 40% (40s)
Loading world 10% (15s)
I am having the same issue. Saved in my prawn suit before jumping down into the South Blood Kelp Zone from the Sparse reef, which I thought was a good thing considering I clipped through the sea floor and started falling into oblivion. But then when I went to reload my save it carashes at 40% and 10%.
Hopefully they will release a fix that allows us to continue these saves or I won't be playing again for a while. 22 hours of progress gone...
I'm just somewhere around the ten hour mark of playtime. But perfomance-wise the experience began to suffer from increasing stuttering and more and more frequent short freezes lately.
While crashing bugs is important and need to be fixed, being able to save the game to reduce lost time is a must. So I think that fixing the crashing bug(s) that affect saving are critically important. This probably has an impact on people losing save data too which is worse.

I mean, presumably, yeah, it'll get fixed. It is just a question of when. The Cyclops fix was just rolled out last week.
With over 2 days worth of
Play time and when I try to play I can bearly get 5 minutes in before the game crashes really hope they fix this soon. Game is basically un playable for me at this point.
