Re: Dead Space - Died and stuck loading forever

Managed to find where it stores the saves and after deleting the last autosave I was able to load the game and continue from the point prior.

Edit: If any devs see this. The issue is 2 fold.

1. The game autosaves at the moment of or just prior to death. The door for me in this case and I've had another instance where I was low health with an enemy immidately behind me and it autosaved.

2. The game autoloads prior to hitting continue on the main menu. I guess for a seemless no load time start? 

If it loads these autosaves the game isnt paused and so you die before being able to interact with the menu. It then loads and you immidately die again causing an endless loading screen loop when unknown to the player you are dying over and over. Either autosave needs to be fixed or the game needs to be paused before hitting continue on the main menu.

    It was a manual save for me, not an autosave. I didn't die while saving, just very soon after but for some reason I'm stuck in the deathloop anyway. Deleting the save file doesn't work, Steam's ever so helpful Cloud rescues me from being able to play the game. The bad save loads automatically even if I delete it from my PC.
