Has anyone else been suffering from a bug with the save system? Every 1/5 times I save, the game freezes on "finalizing", and everything I did since I last saved is now history. This has happened twice now, and I really ticked off at it now, as it has ruined huge amounts of progress. Does this happen in anyone else's game?
And a warning. The crafting system dosen't follow "preservation " rules, so cake will eat your milk buckets. Just a warning.
EDIT: Well, all these bugs are already reported...How on earth did they not know about a save system that is that always has 10% percent chance of failure anyway.
There hasn't been an update so there is no way it has been fixed @ JHMinecraft
@ Darksniper It is a bug for I too have suffered from it, it doesn't happen on all maps, just like the clay problem, or water placement problem. My original world hasn't done it to me once, but experimenting with the seed scandinavia today it froze and took me all the way back to the first time I set foot in that map. It is another hit and miss. unfortunately the only work around I have found is delete that map and try your hand at a new one, or save it for a later date.
The game freezes up my xbox at least twice a day, every day, since I got it the day it was released.
So far, it's never caused me any heartache. My routine is to save my world at frequent intervals. When the save is finalized, the menu normally pops up and I press the B button (or "resume game") to return to playing. But every so often, it just stops, freezes, nothing works and I have to get up and manually power off the xbox.
I've been playing many hours every day, I'd say this happens once every 3 or 4 hours for me... and I do a save about every 5 minutes on average. So it's a rare event... but it's also a daily event. I'm sure they'll get it fixed at some point. Thankfully, it always happens AFTER I do the save... not before. If I ever lost some good stuff because it froze up before I could save... then I'd be upset. The freeze never happens during play, only when I'm in the menu after a save.
And the "cake bug" basically just made me realize right away (along with animals despawing) that farming on this version is utterly pointless. There's so many pigs with pork chops for easy collecting, who needs to make any food? 9 iron ingots to craft a cake is absurd, to say the least. I made one... to get the achievement. LOL

OK, so saving so often it won't matter if it freezes...genius! That's a great workaround. The glitch just devastated my project and it may even take a while for me to really feel like playing on that world again.

Just thought I would comment on how nice it is to see such a helpful post be met with so much "jacka$$ery" and hostility.

also AZ all the way baby!!!!

Nah, I feel his heartache. I've been there too. It's why I save so often, because to me there's NOTHING more maddening and annoying than losing a whole bunch of newly acquired stuff all because I forgot to save my game and a creeper snuck up on me when I wasn't looking and blew me up.
It's gotta be doubly worse when it's a bug that caused it.
For me, like I said, the freezing bug has NEVER cost me a thing. For me it happens *AFTER* my save is finalized. So the big hassle is getting off the couch to press the xbox power button off/on. I can handle it a few times a day without much pain.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to occur for everyone.
I have yet to see this issue on my devkit at work or my Retail kit at home.
We are however working on fixes.

there's a bug list in this forum, pinned at the top and it Has this bug listed. That's meant to be there to avoid people making their own thread every time bugs happen, because it's a known issue that does happen. Saving regularly is the only known workaround until a patch comes . until then game freezes are a major issue with the game. this issue exists right now and if you have lost a lot of progress because of it, then it can't be got back. getting angry won't change it. you have to remember to save regulary in future . and the cake bug is also noted in the bugs thread.
None of the current bugs have been fixed yet. There has been no update since the day the game came out.
Yes, I saw the bugs list after I made the thread. I thought the edit in the OP reflected that.

I wish people were this nice back when I made a few mistakes. Rather, I just got ten more posts telling me how wrong and stupid I was.
And JH's post seemed to be referring to the PC version, though I could be misinterpreting it, and I was confused as to what exactly he was saying. You are referring to JH right?

The save one happened to me 10 minutes ago...was it fixed in the last 10 minutes.
And the crafting system still eats buckets.
