All our existing saves affected are now corrupted?!
I’m on version 2074 and it’s still stuck on “Loading Current Zone”
The fix that was released in version 2074 was designed to prevent further issues of being stuck in the “cleaning up” phase but could not restore already affected saves. As other players have reported the issue occuring after version 2074 the team are reinvestigating the issue.
As your save is stuck on “Loading Current Zone” there is a chance that something else is causing this. Would you mind creating a separate bug report with as much info as possible about what occurred in your save before this happened? I’ll be creating a separate report for the team on this.
Can I have compensation please for the lost progress and and to make up for the lost time … really disappointed I loved this game 200+ hours invested of my life 
Stuck on cleaning up - wow just coz I stated that it felt like a law suit for our Australian friends (gaming compay) they’ve hidden my comment 
still stuck clean up and I know that you lot have said that tuff luck with your lost saved data

Hey I’ve got a similar issue where I saved the game at the tent and it crashed. After that happened I relogged in and the game file gets stuck at the loading screen on “cleaning up”.
I’m scared of losing my progress so I waited till yall sent out that bug fix patch. And got it put on, but I’m still having the same issue where it gets stuck “cleaning up” should I reinstall? Will I loose my progress? :’(
Hi @MountThorn - welcome to the forums. I’ve moved your comment here as the crash and getting stuck in “Cleaning Up” mode is different to the issue in the thread you posted in. Please read the original top post for more information.
Ty Mr Green, it seems player’s forget the channels we have to wait for before we can see results 
Hi Clare.
I just got this issue on ps4 the game crashed on saving and I try to restart but it won’t load its stuck on cleaning up. So much time waste for nothing. What should I do?
Hi John,
I’m sorry to hear that this issue has occurred in your save. The team are continuing to investigate this issue and what could be causing it after the initial fix release. Unfortunately there is no workaround for the issue. If you have a backup of your save I would recommend reverting to that backup. I understand how frustrating and disheartening this issue is for players and again I am sorry this issue has affected your save.
Please also let me know if you noticed anything else that may have contributed to your crashing when saving. If there was a spike in lag on your island or anything unusual happened during gameplay before saving.
Yes it was quite lagging before I saved. I noticed on my cartographer I wasn’t on the same island as my previous game save. It sent me back in the middle island like in the beginning of the game.
Will I lose my progress as I’m on day 90 and I already settled it will be the last time I won’t start a new save. I did it a lot already. Any news for now?
Hi John,
Sorry for my delay in responding to your messages. Can you elaborate on what you mean by your cartographer wasn’t the same as your previous save? When this occured, was all the progress in the map reset as well as your character? Did this occur on loading into your pre-existing save? Please note that the seed number for the slot affects both the single player and multiplayer save of that slot.
Unfortunately I do not have any updates on the next patch for the game or when it’ll be released at this time. If this is indeed the same as the previous “cleaning up” issue, them I’m afraid there is a very high chance that a fix for this will not restore an affected save.
متى تعمل اللعبة مرة اخرى ؟؟؟ ps4

With regards to the “Cleaning Up” load phase, all of the current information is included in the top post. The team are currently working on the next update for the PS4/XB1 version but we do not have confirmation on the contents of the update at this time. If you are experiencing this or any other issue please submit a new bug report with as much information as possible and I will respond as soon as I can.
Buonasera, ho salvato nel rifugio dopo l’aggiornamento 1.11, si è bloccato tutto, ho ricaricato il gioco e sono 20 mn che è bloccato su pulizia.
Prima dell’aggiornamento funzionava tutto.
L’ultimo salvataggio è proprio quello in cui si è bloccato il gioco, però ho letto che non c’è soluzione.
Ps4
Quindi cancello il gioco?
Ricominciare per la decima volta proprio no! Tre aggiornamenti in poco tempo, hanno presentato errori diversi dopo averli fatti…
Good evening, I saved in the shelter after the 1.11 update, everything froze, I reloaded the game and I am 20 mn which is stuck on cleaning.
Before the update everything worked.
The last save is the one where the game crashed, however I read there is no fix.
Ps4
So I cancel the game?
Starting over for the tenth time really no! Three updates in a short time, presented different errors after making them …
@Clare too had the same issue. I just defeated the squid, my final boss, got the trophy and propeller part, saved on my raft with the sleeping bag and my game just froze…not went to the blue error screen for PS4, but just froze. NOW, I can’t even load my save. Thank god I had already pretty much did everything and can watch the takeoff from the carrier online, but now when my game loads it just continually slips back and forth on the loading bar but never loads my actual game. My biggest disappointment is that I’ll never be able to load the three story house I built over the past 2weeks. This game is buggy as hell and while the “no interactivity” bug was fixed after a month or so, this happens…like I said, I’m just glad the only thing left to do after the squid was take my last part to the carrier and take off. Otherwise, I’d probably sue for loss of time…

Game just updated to 2078 on xb1. Tried to save from the sleeping bag and save hung. Waited up to 10 minutes and gave up and quit the game. Tried loading my save but game stops loading at the Cleaning Up stage - load icon spins continuously and never finishes. I’m up to day 77 - is there hope to resurrect my saved game?
Same crap here more problems than what they fix
Once again I can’t play, but now I can’t even load in my game after game hung and I gave up a quit it
