    @SXtheKitsune: Ironically, the only way for those of us with this problem to play the game now is to find a pirate version of the game online, download and play that. This is exactly the last thing Ubisoft will want us to be doing, but the bottom line is that pirates have more control over their games than those who legitimately purchase the titles. Us chumps who've given up our money already are subject to the the whims of the developers, even if that means being forced to install a game breaking patch

    I am on the same boat as all of you. Karma level 8, crashes at any attempt of a save (manually or automatically), crashes on reloads at times. I hope they fix this soon and without having to restart the whole game, I am close to 30 hours in and 70% done with the game. I don't want to restart all of that.

    I just tried to save as well and it froze my game at the main menu. Not sure why it would be related to Karma level though?
    I'm only level 7.

    Edit: I take that back. I had just turned level 8.
    I actually tried at level 7 and was able to save and quit, now that i'm level 8 I can no longer do either.

    Way to go Ubi, another patch that breaks the game!

    WINNER!!!!

    Yup, I'm in the same boat, too. Karma level 8, autosaves don't occur, and clicking on "Save" or "Save and Quit" just locks up the menu. I'm usually reluctant to start griping at the vendor, but this isn't reasonable.

    The only good part of this is that with so many people having problems, UbiSoft will not want to dawdle. Bloody annoying, though.

    To everyone that is having this issue please open a ticket with Ubisoft to make them aware of the problem. The more tickets they get the sooner they will work to resolve it. This is a game-breaking issue and needs to be addressed ASAP!

    This seems to be the case with me also. I just attacked an outpost on level 7, then when captured, it wouldnt do the save thing. My manual save has left the menu frozen and now hanging.
    Previously, when it wouldnt save after a completed mission, when it restarted to the begining of the mission, I chose to abandon the mission, which reverted me to I guess level 7 from 8, so I could save again.
    So, anyway, Im stuck hanging on the save screen.

    I'm amazed at how bad the quality control at the Ubisoft studios is these days. Every patch for every game introduces new game breaking issues. Personally I never had a single issue with Far Cry 3, yet they manage to screw things up royally numerous time with Far Cry 4. It's using the same engine as FC3 FFS. Whoever is handling the PC version of this, Unity and Watch Dogs seems to have no clue what they're doing. Especially Unity gets more and more unplayable after each patch, and now requires a ****ton of luck to be able to get through a mission without it crashing or turning into a stutter fest.

    Nice one UBI, just in time for the Xmas holiday. As I'm now at 72% completion, does it matter if I uninstall the game in terms of the Saved Game? I don't really want to go back and replay 40 hours of this....

    I think there shouldn't be a problem otherwise Ubisoft would have stated that one must restart the campaign in the release notes. So far, I have no problems with my saved game as other people are having. My only complaint really is that in my experience I don't see much of a difference in performance and the memory leak is still very much alive after two hours of playing the game.
