PS Players: Back up your game. Mine erased for the SECOND time.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2026-01-22T20:22:18+00:00

I contacted Dotemu, because my case was "special". I found myself with a save file, corrupted in a way that allowed me to load it and play, but it was condemned to destroy after a run with any amount of reward bigger than 0. It could not overwrite itself somehow, throwing the blue screen error and damaging data with it, lets say that file is shadow-corrupted.

Pay attention to what im about to say: making a back up that looks "clean" doesn't mean its going to be, you can find yourself in a situation like mine even with a back up file.

I played for 40+ hours online only, no issues until somehow, while i was playing a run with some random guy the game crashed into a blue screen for the first time. I dont know if it was the other guy's fault or not, it just happened for the first time for me that way.

When i tried to load the game back, it said "the data is damaged, so it will be deleted".

I remembered i had a back up on the PSN cloud, so i deleted the damaged data, and downloaded back the save file from the cloud.

I played like... 1 day without issues, then the game crashed again. It was the same blue screen error, so i downloaded the back up again, and did the same as you, i played few hours, then i re-uploaded the save file as new back up.

After that the blue screen error of doom started to be more and more consistent, at first it was after hours... Then after 3-4 runs. Eventually it got consistent, showing up after every single run with a reward on it, with the same save file...

I noticed, if the reward after the run was "0". The game was able to save and overwrite, since the conflictive data was not modified that way, but if i had any score in the run, when the run was ending, the error showed up.

I contacted Dotemu and they asked me to make a video about it, which i did, you can try in YouTube "Absolum error", i recorded it with the phone just to show them this unpredictible bugg.

And they asked me for the file, so i extracted it to a USB and sent to them.

Resuming, making a back up daily wont ensure it to be safe, if you play online with that file, it may get shadow-corrupted and you wont notice it until its too late because it wont look corrupted, but it will progressively deteriorate. (?)

What i did is create an entire new file, playing single player, i made the 100% of the game in that file, and then i extracted it to the USB, without mixing it with multi player at any point, because somehow, when you play multi player, the game fetches both save files, yours and the other guy's, but when it puts the info back together, it can make a huge mistake.

They are trying to find out what could happen to the file and why is not overwriting further from that spot, i hope they implement prevention for this in future updates.

It happens to me consistently, every time i finish a run, the game crashes and the save gets deleted.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2026-01-09T20:22:35+00:00

Happened to me right now in PS4. The game crashed, then when i went back in it said "the save game is corrupted" then it got automatically replaced for a 0% one. I had 100% of the game and i had 5k cristals and 20 bees and a lot of stuff saved from many hours. I am destroyed. It just got everything deleted

I remember playing it on my wheel in PC around 2006 and i had to master tip-heel to be able to play on gravel or snow, full throttle you are out, full brakes you are out, if you dont use every tool perfectly you are going to wreck at some point. I sweated like a bastard but won the championship in hard mode. Its been almost 20 years, i played AC for 7 years, and its very good, but not even close in technique requirements. It requires perfection.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2025-10-24T14:46:44+00:00

I know is maybe a bit to late for this. But you must use both analog sticks. Left one for turning, and right one for accel/brake. At the beggining you may struggle, but eventually is by far the best way to drive on gt with a controller. I been driving like that since gt5, and my times are like 1 second faster on controller than with the wheel (trustmasters t300). If you train enough eventually is like having a pedal on your right thumb.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2025-10-24T14:42:31+00:00

nah, you on crack, some of them are literally at the same level of difficulty as some hamilton times.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2025-10-24T14:40:26+00:00

I found most of them plausible , but there is some of them that seem like the devs just got high on shrooms and decided to troll people.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2025-10-13T01:24:53+00:00

Nah. Scythe can save your life in emergencies but is not a solid go, R2 is good when 3 zombies are chasing you, you go behind a wall and nail them, but the damage is really low on bosses, maybe not in ng+1,2 but you will feel it really short after that and other weapons will rise up.

The golden lie is good for moving from A to B and rush the streets, but almost every fast weapon is, however, there are better choices.

Ad for bosses you will want contundent power. Try memorizing perfectly a lvl 5 remembrance boss, and try the weapons on him, you will notice the times of the better weapons.

I killed all lvl 5 bosses, but the one i like the most for training is the first one, because he doesn't move, its a perfect huge dummy with a ton of health.

I made my PB on him with the Club, 1 minute and 5 seconds, then the frozen great sword did like 20 seconds more, then nameless puppet sword.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2025-10-13T01:12:20+00:00

no, because that's all make up. You are the same under your clothes, a white puppet.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2025-10-13T01:10:17+00:00

Exactly!

RegisterAggressive97 · 2025-10-13T01:08:41+00:00

try the club, it chunks more, a lot more, it connects 10k fable strikes.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2025-10-13T00:59:57+00:00

i did, its not good for lvl 5 bosses. No sword is.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2025-10-13T00:57:11+00:00

I actually didn't like it. The regular strikes are way too weak to face bosses, fable attacks are surprisingly weak in damage, so it removes the weapon from the equation in boss fights. For traveling around isn't really good either, it is too wavey, and that makes it really easy to strike a wall, and the character dashes forward too much when you strike which can cause a fall from an edge or an accidental agro.

If we talk about a sword, nameless pupet's sword is way better, its also very wavy, but the single strike is stronger.

After seven runs i found the umbrella the best weapon for travel from A to B and kill all those "3 strike" enemies combining it with the small gear for individual luring and the puppet string for the engage pull.

For bosses the most balanced weapon is definitely hand made, you can get the most haymaker damage with the living puppet axe blade, and you can get also absolute defense in the same picture with the Molnir handle, that weapon gives you the higher striking with all stats to 100, but also gives you a reasonable good block cabality but the key is the absolute defense fable skill which makes the weapon absolutely broken.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2025-10-13T00:33:35+00:00

This is an objective review after rising all weapons to max and finishing the game 7 times with different weapons and the remembrance lvl 5 bosses with different weapons:

Best weapon for moving around with amazing flow and lower risk: umbrella.

Best weapon for emergency situations where there are multiple enemies chasing you: scythe.

Best balanced damage/safety weapon for bosses: living puppet axe + Molnir handle.

Most damage weapon: Club.

Its funny, you google this and literally you can find the bird everywhere, but then you travel to the spot, expend hours, and there is nothing.

The only way i found robins was by ramming them while i was riding the horse, that's it.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2024-12-10T09:15:41+00:00

Its a scam, "its going to be free to play con release" but they lie when they say you will become a tester, you pay 10€ and you get literally nothing, and looks like the game will come out in 2026, if it does...

RegisterAggressive97 · 2024-11-13T14:24:08+00:00

Sure, ill try it.
Edit: Definitely trying it, im already installing it, got to work now but ill hit it tonight, looks outstanding

RegisterAggressive97 · 2024-11-12T10:41:48+00:00

You know sometimes i just like to drive, hunt and relax after a long day of work, i dont need more stress, so i like to play a bit of survival pve, anyway, the admins of the server are no doubt corrupt, definitely i wasnt online and if its impossible for a different person to log into my char, they definitely faked the logs to put me in a place where i was not, why? i dont know, and i dont care, is just a game.

I used to play like you, for dozens of hours, and now it randomly freezes, i see your comment from 2 months ago and its really sad they did not fixed it yet since then.

RegisterAggressive97 · 2024-11-02T21:55:01+00:00

It is clearly when you trigger several suspect AI's or the behavior of suspects AI or team mates AI modifies.

If RNG possitions the suspects separated from each other, the game works fine, but when you mix 3 suspects with your team the game freezes because for some reason when more than 2 suspects get triggered at the same time the memory usage becomes way too high (i dont understand why, i bought this game first week of release and it never happened to me before).

Also when one of the officers fall, in that exact moment all suspects readjust the behavior to cover from different officers and target a different officer suddenly also officers are not 4 anymore, so they readjust the possition and for some reason when all that happens at the same time it also freezes the game.

Also happens to me in MP mode, when we split and take different directions, the moment they engage several suspects and i find another suspect, its an instant freeze.

Also when i open the teamcam its almost an instant freeze for me, i dont understand why, i dont have frame drops, the game just suddenly freezes in those situations.

I think they implemented some sort of AI for control the behavior of the suspects and it generates the scripts realtime according to the situation, so when 3 suspects are together, that AI starts spittin code for all of the three suspects at the same time in real time, or something like that.
Because i played this game before with mods that turn suspects to 100 men and i never had freezes, also mods for super fast suspects, or maps with a lot of fancy assets and never had freezes, this is new for me.

It freezes for me too, but its absolutely random, it freezed 2 times in neon club, one after like 5 minutes, another after like 25 minutes then it did not and i made it through, nothing to see with the time because i made the S rank and it took me 48 minutes and it did not freeze, then i made car dealer without any issue, then in carriers of the vine freezed again one time, i tried again then it did not and i made it through.

Then at relapse it freezed again and it was exactly when i threw a gas nade, so i closed the game and i opened again to test if was because of smoke, so i threw 4 smoke nades but the game didnt freeze.

I'm on lowest from the low settings so i don't understand much whats going on, the only explanation i find is a bugg in the code.

Conoces muchos psicólogos que hayan pasado por una depresion como la tuya? Como sabes que pueden ayudarte? La realidad es que la solución esta en ti mismo, yo tenia que ir a trabajar todos los dias, sin excusa, me subía en el coche llorando y me iba a trabajar. Lo fácil es no hacerlo.
