So after +10 hours of game-play I can no longer load my auto-save. It is the exact same problem as the OP. And every time I try to load my main save if freezes my xbox. Is there a fix out there and if not have the devs commented on this problem at all?
Look around, you'll see a bunch of threads about this. Also, look at the stickies and you'll see that they said they are working on patches for all platforms. Besides that, nothing specific. Join the club, we're all waiting to hear something.
